You are right on the mark. Bottom line - "Daddy has got funds"

Perhaps Mr. Benson is following the will of the people he represents? Perhaps he sees it as his duty to follow the laws as written and allow the people of the community to vote on this issue once they meet the requirements of the law.
Or do you think the good people of Thorsby should be denied their rights even after they have leapt through the hurdles placed in front of them by our legislators?
Or do you really think that remaining "dry" is going to prevent those who want it from coming to Clanton and getting all they want?

It is called desensitization. Hollywood has shoved so much down everyones' throats for years until they are no longer cognizant of the dangers of this garbage infiltrating every area of life.

It seems Clanton and Jemison answered my question from Thursday...

Travlr, let's not be totally asinine. I do not feel we need guards at every place where people gather but I do feel that if security measures are already in place they should be utilized.
I also believe that more responsible people should get trained on proper use of firearms and so equip themselves. Check it out for yourself. Areas where the citizenry is proportionately more well equipped have overall lower crime rates.
I am not endorsing the idea of every single person taking on a wild West mentality but rather those who are capable of such intelligently and properly preparing to defend themselves and others.
Our LEOs can not be everywhere at once and can not materialize out of thin air the second you need them. It is incumbent upon you to take those common sense precautions to protect yourself.
No, we can not and will not prevent every crime or save every life. But we can increase our odds by being intelligently prepared. It is not fear, it is common sense.

Sheriff Davis, thank you for again taking the time to explain some things for us. Would you, or can you legally, consider the use of trained volunteers to man the metal detectors? I would be willing to offer some hours to help with this if it is allowed.

Thank God Coach Hand is a big part of CCHS history. He is a great man and coach who did much for our school.
The same can be said for Mr. Larry Mahaffey. He may have been the best principal ever and it is a shame he is no longer there. Good for Jeff State though in recognizing his talent and getting him on board.
Perhaps one day CCHS will again have a man of such character in charge.

I don't know which one it will be but odds are one will be. Sadly, we will soon not have Bham Mayor LaLa to laugh at anymore....if only he hadn't stolen/taken money. Doesn't he know the government HATES competition?

Dang it Graves! These people know we're friends, quit telling our age!
Seriously though, glad to see our guys in uniform keeping up the fight. It can be daunting and at times completely overwhelming but keep up the good work guys. Some of us do know a bit about what you go through for far too little in return. Let me say thank you for making the sacrifices.
