The people getting shot have choosen to live a certain lifestyle, one that too often ends violently. To paint them as angels and victims is naive and unproductive. They are criminals and until we in Plainfield start viewing them as criminals and treating them as criminals, the violence will not end.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-15530767575861399452011-01-05T12:31:54.220-05:002011-01-05T12:31:54.220-05:00Why get tough on the criminals in the streets when...Why get tough on the criminals in the streets when the courts only turn them loose with a slap on the wrist?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-22509078170732531002011-01-05T12:19:29.302-05:002011-01-05T12:19:29.302-05:00People ask me if I'm worried about being a ped...People ask me if I'm worried about being a pedestrian type and living in Plainfield. Well, I'm a bit worried these days about stray gunfire with all that's going on. <br /><br />I know that anytime someone is shot nine times, they want him dead. I don't believe anyone wants me dead in town. It's odd that as an older middle-aged female pedestrian that I'm SO not a target of crime. That's a good thing. <br /><br />However, I can't control the other passerby on the streets and whomever may have conflicts with them THAT can be scary.Jackie S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00329275604115301953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1909246571366789334.post-72043264366458834682011-01-05T10:57:04.233-05:002011-01-05T10:57:04.233-05:00I don't know what Plainfield you live in Dan, ...I don't know what Plainfield you live in Dan, but I am going to start living in Mayor Sharon's Plainfield. The one with no gang problems, visits from "dignitaries" like Rev. AL and all sorts of new exciting vibrant business growth further building the tax base of a safe sublime little city outside of Manhattan...that's the Plainfield I am going to live in! <br />The only problem is, I am not sure their is enough sand for all of us to bury our heads in like Mayor Sharon. <br />WHY HASN'T SHE PRINTED MORE FLIERS!!
