Scores attended a POP rally against youth violence on Saturday. |
Scores of Plainfielders, including friends and relatives of Spencer 'Spook' Cadogan and Keith Hathaway, the most recent victims of a wave of youth violence, turned out for a rally against youth violence sponsored by the Plainfield chapter of POP (People's Organization for Progress) late Saturday afternoon at the makeshift memorial for Cadogan outside the restaurant on West Front Street where he was gunned down last Thursday as school was letting out.

Dan: I attended the rally. While I was there, I saw only one representative of City government, Cory Storch.
Did Coor's Lite sponser this event i noticed the banner
FYI: the Mayor came after the other meeting ended and spoke to the crowd.
@ 4:49 PM -- Hey smartypants! The Coors signs are in front of the bar across the street, which of course you would have known if you cared to put yourself out for even a few minutes against violence in the community.
By the way, COORS does sponsor some of the Recreation Division's activities. Go figure.
See it was an honest question about the beer
