I think that's absolutely great, a rainy night and everything -- that this many people came out for this meeting. I am going to applaud that myself.

We want to urge our legislatures, commissioners and other county representatives to stop ignoring recommendations, many of which if followed would reduce current jail populations making the costly expansion unnecessary.

The legislators need to work on property tax relief as vigorously as they worked on their pay increase.

People are going to start listening. People are already listening.
