I thought Janie Poe was coming down. Newtown has been a mess since I can remember and the city has no idea what to do to make it better. Maybe white guilt has left our worthless commissioners incapable of doing anything to effect change. Appointing a demagogue like Fred Atkins as Mayor does not bode well for the future.

It's reactions like the writer's that allows this kind of nonsense to continue. Introspection instead of outrage. Nothing I'm sure more money for Newtown won't fix. Can't wait to read Fred's reaction to this.

I thought Janie Poe was coming down.

I believe it will be torn down, perhaps as part of this affordable housing issue which is currently percolating through the county.

Say, have you noticed lately how the paper keeps throwing in Atkins' nickname, "Glossie"? What's the deal with that?
