The river makes people coocoo. I have lived by the meramec for 25 years. I have seen it all.

Its funny that no one ever mentions the education system that teaches nothing about history( or much of anything compared to the past) as a root problem.

I am surprised how little verified facts about this case have been released. I mean there is nada.

Agreed, I would like to see some facts, hard to believe witnesses haven.t showed up all over the news by now. Seems a little strange.

[Guest Brian B.]

Enough so to wonder if they are under some kind of gag order?? Very strange.

Just found a link and my browser closed mid- surf..

The shooter has been charged with second degree murder, the link was through Three Rivers Publishing- I'll try to jot down the link.

[Guest Brian B.]

There's Bubba, or Billy Bob, or Jessie, or Jessup, Orville, whatever his name is, here's the man charged with murder. Zeke, I bet his name is Zeke.

I'm going to say this once and I won't discuss it further...I don't think there are very many people who are pleased with the direction this country is taking. But if you think that all those people who are displeased are blaming it on one party, you're wrong. There are a whole lot of people who are just as smart and love the country just as much as any of you do who blame some, or even a lot, of the divisiveness on the other party and their leaders. Note, I'm stressing that it is people who are just as smart and care just as much. They aren't Kool-aid drinkers and they aren't fools, and if you assume they are, and accuse them of being so, you automatically make enemies of them and cheapen your own arguments. I always thought that I could get along just fine with anybody on this website, and I've certainly got a number of friends here and elsewhere who have different political viewpoints. But I've got to say that a few of the comments I've seen on here recently would make me think twice as well about whether I wanted to share a canoe or a gravel bar with the comment makers.

Far too many people are far too quick to take any incident and use it to further their own agenda, on both sides. Or even make up something to be outraged about.

So...if you believe I'm a fool and a Kool-aid drinker for not automatically blaming everything on the current administration and the Democrats, believe what you want...and I'll ignore you.
