Pontiac enjoys p*ssing and deficating in Drunkvilles water supply. Maybe that is what making the mixed drinks taste so good and causing drunken brawls. More ice and vodka and water, please.

He can do what he wants. I'm not getting in the gravel with him. I'm not changing my responses or attitudes based on his. Scream at me, make fun of me, whatever. I don't play that way. Just recounting my last experiences here when I rallied against him and his tactics. Tons of hate PM's. Kyle accused me of supporting crime and to my absolute surprise, most of the people here agreed with him. I am now known as a low life. When Kyle speaks, his little fan club listens and follows him blindly. I agree with Kyle

Actually to be hired as a police officer you must pass physical and written exams. You are interviewed by the police and fire commission. You are then put on a list in order of next to hire. When an opening occurs the p and c commission recommends the new hire. The city manager then puts it before the council on his recommendation. It is approved by the council. Only the city manager has the authority to hire and fire employees under our form of government. The council votes to either approve or disapprove.

I may give them a hard time, but I try not to call them names.

Dog Every Separate Cop has their OWN SQUAD Car in this Town. They have found out it is Cheaper in the long Run to have a Larger Fleet than wear out Cars every 2-3 Years with only having a few Squads for the Town. The City of Jacksonville has IIRC something like 80 Sworn Officers and Each One has their OWN Car. Why so When they Leave the House to Start their Shifts they can Start to Work if Needed or if a Cop Needs Backup like Yesterdays incident they can haul in a lot of HELP IN ONE HELL OF A HURRY. The Normal amount of Officers on Duty is about 20 they called in 15 More to keep those kids safe. 5 Years ago this town was heading downhill like Streator was from what I have read in the Papers and from Town meeting Minutes. What changed simple the Old Guard in the Council was Voted out in an Election and the New Blood said we are NOT going to let this town Die. They Started with making it CLEAR as a bell to Lawbreakers that YOU WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. 5 Years ago this town had 60+ bars in it plus multiple Liquor Stores. First thing they did was Make this City Dry as Death Valley. Even the local Restaurants can not serve any Booze to customers to drink. Next they went after the Drug Dealers and within 6 months had them GONE in Jail and in Prison for the most Part there are a couple that have hung on however they are hit all the time. Just how did the City manage this easy they passed a City Ordinance that any landlord that allows Drug Dealing or Manufacturing even if unaware of the crime WILL LOSE THEIR PROPERTY and made it stick in court. Next they started up programs to give Kids something to do and Opened a Pool that has enough stuff that it Makes the City MONEY everyday it is Open. Lastly the City Leaders went to the Public and said we want YOUR IDEAS as to what we could do to make this city and area Better. Now Crime is down 70% from what it was 5 Years ago. Here people Respect you regardless of who you are. We can sit on our patio and our Neighbors will come out and join us and we talk. The Schools are IMPROVING why called the TEACHERS all are REQUIRED to post how the Kids are doing ONLINE with an App and also give out their School District Issued Cell Number and Text Parents or Call them if that Parents Child is having Problems. This year alone 15 Teachers where REPLACED for Failure to DO THEIR JOBS aka TEACH in the District and their UNION SAID YOUR ON YOUR OWN to everyone of the ones that got Fired. Getting out of Streator was the Best thing I ever did for my Family and I AM NEVER COMING BACK TO THAT HELLHOLE ON THE VERMILLION RIVER. Baloney!!

Wrong BB down here the Union can ONLY do one thing for the Teachers fight Work Rules like making Teachers Wear Underwear to School and Dress Professionally. Beyond that they have Zero POWER. Why called when Huckabee was Governor of AR he rammed thru a little thing called Teacher must PERFORM. Even if they have TENURE they fail to meet Standards they are FIRED. How do I know this for a FACT my sons 4th Grade Teacher is there Everyday Teaching Kids harder than ANYONE IN IL EVER DID FOR MY KIDS. I get phone calls all the time when my Oldest is having Problems with School work and then Emails on sites to help him better. Ever seen a Teacher in IL do anything like that. The best part is we can access his Grades at anytime ONLINE and see what is going on in his Class. Called living in a State where the Parents and School Board have POWER not the NOT DOING OUR JOBS TEACHING UNION.

Called living in a State where the Parents and School Board have POWER not the NOT DOING OUR JOBS TEACHING UNION. ironeagle, I really find it interesting that my parents could find out how I was performing in school by talking to me about my day at school over the dinner table: by attending the "parent-teacher" conferences and showing they cared about education by their paying the school fees on time. I'm so proud of them! Perhaps it's because they didn't permit me to "whine", they showed up in the Principal's office on time to discuss a problem. Wow, now you must have INSTANT access to the INTERNET to find out how you child is performing in school? Really? Is it about their grades only? Perhaps, the teachers in the school conferences could give you some advice about your child's "strenghts and weaknesses" that are not "graded" on a face to face basis rather than just "checking in on the schools website". Gawd, how did a person Parent before the Internet? g

Just for the sake of our discussion, find the proof of what you declare...I couldn't.

I am not sure if Ironeagles statement is true or not, but Butterbean when you say "not in this state" are you referring to Illinois? Ironeagle is talking about Arkansas where he lives now. His statements are referring to teachers in Arkansas, not Illinois.

His statements are referring to teachers in Arkansas, not Illinois. Arkansas IS a non-tenure state, but has The Arkansas Teacher Fair Dismissal Act (TFDA) to provide due process to teachers. I doubt if 15 teachers were just pushed out the employment door without a fight. I think due process is all any employee should have.

Back to what goes on in downtown Streator.
Here is a conversation from Facebook on Saturday that shows that people have absolutely no pride in our downtown and realize that with the lack of enforcement here that anything is allowed:
October 19 via mobile Only in streator will u see a grown man taking a crap in the ally in the middle of the day. Why dI'd i even look out that window. Gross... — feeling annoyed. \
HAHAAH omg
No! I cant believe I just saw that ppl r just... nasty as sheiiit.
haha they so are. But this status literally made my whole day
Well ..... ig that's good. lol
I didn't need to see his little wiener either! *shuddders
HAHAHAHAAH
You guys act like its a good thing. My eyes are like bleeding right now.
It's funny
Than YOU LOOK AT IT! HAHAHA
Lol no it's funny only when it happens to someone else
Ooooooh I can't believe I saw that. Eww.
Lol
It wouldn't have been so bad if he was like squatting and hiding or whatever. He was just leaning forward standing up in the middle of the street just dropping off his little mudd monkeys with his pants around his ankles. Talk about a double take. .
gag
Lol yeahh...
Lol nasty
And I thought I had a bad day...
Bahahahaha!!

Maybe leave the public restrooms open 24/7 would curve the problem.
