Sorry, but I disagree. Pontiac would be more centrally located for the Liv. Co. residents. Why should the voters have to travel further? He could have a separate meet w/law enf. agencies, including neighboring counties/ISP etc.

As for the drugs, they're in every city AND the interstate they should be watching is I-55. We know from exp., that most of the drug trafficking comes to LaSalle Co. via I-80, so ....

I agree, Pontiac would be a central location for a meeting, and he could be having one there too. I think the poster was more concerned about letting us know about the meeting in our area. I hope he shares everything her saw and learned with every community and law enforcement agency that he can. I know that the interstates are main gateways for a great deal of illegal trafficking . I only mentioned the flow from Streator and into his county because of conversations with people in the know on just how bad the drug problem in the Illinois Valley area really is, especially the Streator-Ottawa area. I know I would be doing everything I could to keep that crap out of my area, even if it meant going outside the county and even to Springfield if necessary.

From what I derived from the OP it is a town hall meeting for the 16th Congressional District and they are against the incumbent Adam Kinzinger. Could a faction opposing Kinzinger be hosting it and invited Tony Childress to speak regarding the border problems being he has first hand insight to the problem ?

Tony is an upstanding lawman, his own party basically threw him under the bus in the primary to the point of bringing a former sheriff out of retirement to run against him. Their plan backfired and Tony won by a sizeable margin. He was acting sheriff when Meredith resigned but they demoted him to Chief Deputy when they decided to run a candidate against him. Interestingly enough the candidate the Republicans produced to run against him announced who was going to be his Chief Deputy and it wasn't Tony, so they clearly had plans to try and shove him out of the dept.

I would like to hear his account of the border problems and see just how many lies the Obama administration and news outlets are feeding to us.

Well stated Waldo, well stated.
