It probably was a mother and her "large" cubs. Anyway at least he lived to tell about it.

Their budget got cut in half!! Looks like the taxpayers need to get Dean focused on his priorities with a swift kick in the pants. No wonder the Governor wants to abolish township goverment.

And most college's, while they may have a written policy on drinking on campus (to cover their butt), really do not enforce it. Perhaps they need to dock a student's GPA for each offense of providing or consuming alcohol on campus.

It was designed improve areas for economic growth. New turf on a school football field does nothing to improve economic growth in the area. Plus there are other areas in Mishawaka that could have put the money to better use. PENN54MOM: The focus of a school should be on education, not sports. Education will last forever, not so a million to one shot at professional sports. The way this nation is going, the only thing we will be known for in the near future is sports and entertainment. Education and hard work are soon to be a thing of the past.

Obviously some "back scratching" and creative writing took place for this venture.

He believes he is untouchable and can do whatever he wants at anyone's expense. He loves the attention and the media keeps feeding him.

Well, why not if he justs wants to show it off. Really, what is wrong with people today. Public indecency is public indecency, plain and simple. If you need to relieve yourself and there is no restroom available (not the case here) then do so discreetly and out of sight of public view. The trooper may have been taken away from other more important duties (it happens all the time because of idiots who think they are above the laws of society), but some people need to learn the hard way.

She is very active within the community.

It is about independence which is why citizens of this great country can choose to be a pacifist. We need to honor and show respect to our nation more often, not just at the beginning of sports events and a couple of holidays.

Duh!!! If the police have evidence that they were going to commit a crime then the police should be proactive and stop them before they hurt someone.

The last time he was there, as Governor, he set himself up nicely for Washington by cutting services in Indiana to pad the budget surplus. He looked good because Indiana had money in the bank, but roads went to pot, state agencies were stretched beyond limits and the next Governor had to spend the surplus and more to get things back into shape. WAIT!! Does this sound familiar.....Oh Yeah! Daniels is doing the same thing. Roads are going from paved to gravel, education is taking huge cuts and being forced to take several steps backward, state agencies are slashing jobs, benefits and services. But there's a surplus in the bank and Daniels is leaving in less than two years.....Washington here he comes. And here we go again!

Our laws in Indiana do not need to be changed, they need to be ENFORCED!!!! As a retired Police Officer, I know all to well of the leniency in our judicial system. Yes, people make mistakes, but it's not that hard to distinguish those that are going to continue down that path from those that trully are remorseful for their actions. We need to make people accountable for their actions and quit blaming their "poor, never got a break" background.
