Bubbaching, how will we ever have a nice town when you are spreading hatred in it? Come on, you can do better, can't you?

If this town were completely white, it would have the same problems. People are people no matter what color they are.

Check out the history of Emporia. You'll find that Mexicans lived here clear back into the 1800s. That population is an integral part of our town's history.

As for these young boys, I hope this terrible situation will wake them up and they will turn their lives around. If not, the loss will be much greater than losing our beautiful swans and geese.

We should value these young lives above the lives of the animals. These boys should be punished for what they did. My hope is that their punishment will help them regain their conscience and become the good men God made them to be.

The money needs to follow the kids. The money is for the children.

Children should never be a commodity.

Is it possible to push the edges of art without being pornographic in nature. Hmmmm... no that would require thought and oh yeah, creativity.

State tests measure the success of the teachers and schools. They are less about the students and more about the educational system.

Some of the guidelines will be fluid. For instance, the poverty level is different for a family of one and a family of six. I am fairly certain that SRS would have the specific income levels.

Okay, I have a pool and trust me, the water out of the tap is much, MUCH better. Second, Rhoades works at a water plant and was probably not hired for his snappy retorts. He had no way of knowing the AP reporter was who he said he was. To me, Rhoades sounds like a working man trying to get off the phone and back to his job, which is treating water, not talking to reporters.

I have an idea. Patrick, why don't you move to Emporia and reform us all?

Dear Patrick,

Not a mere pastor but an entire denomination has embraced the needs of the Somalis here in Emporia. Catholic Community Services in Emporia is putting their money where their mouth is and helping the Somalis with friendship and aid. Many people in Emporia are clueless about how to embrace the Somalis in a meaningful way that is also culturally sensitive. We are not all bigots and many of us grimace at the same words that bothered you.

So, Patrick, where are you from?
