We are still numb from the brutal murder and dismemberment of a member of our community by a repeat offender. Christian people that “love thy neighbor as thyself” cannot accept such a death with a level of emotional response that is only appropriate for “road kill”. Unfortunately this recidive rapist/murderer was not an anomaly among sex-offenders. According to Graham himself, dumping large numbers of ex -offenders in a community ill-equipped to handle their problems is ill-advised.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4305308739784844668.post-64001480889984275962011-01-02T18:59:28.084-05:002011-01-02T18:59:28.084-05:00The Greenville community is apparently not suscept...The Greenville community is apparently not susceptible to reason, so defending a worthwhile effort to return persons to productive lives becomes necessary in court. This is an emotional issue in which logic is not effective. The council's action has zero chance of being sustained by the courts, but the fight must be fought since reason has been and will be ineffective.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4305308739784844668.post-7176905043914948222011-01-02T17:32:21.996-05:002011-01-02T17:32:21.996-05:00I want to thank the Reiers for their well research...I want to thank the Reiers for their well researched information for what is taking place in Greenville. They are good Citizen Journalists educating the public on what is going on. It takes great courage to step up out and be a leader. My prediction is that there will be more Citzen Journalists telling the story like it really is ... especially if outside interests decide they are going to tell our community what we can and what we cannot do. Our community safety and interests come first. We may not have the money, but we have the voices and feet.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4305308739784844668.post-5320101497093972862010-12-31T11:43:50.974-05:002010-12-31T11:43:50.974-05:00I want to thank you for all the work you put into ...I want to thank you for all the work you put into researching this issue. I really appreciate it. If Graham thinks people are going to cool off about this issue he is nuttier that I already think he is.People have a right to care about their family members and their home prices. Nobody is going to want to move into an area full of dangerous perverted sex offenders.Curtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4305308739784844668.post-17342533350018083792010-12-31T09:13:48.489-05:002010-12-31T09:13:48.489-05:00Thank you to the Reiers for their educated reports...Thank you to the Reiers for their educated reports to the community. Greenville residents must stand together and support the City Officials. We cannot allow threats of lawsuits hinder what is in the best interest of all residents of Greenville and its future. We did not want to be known as the city for carbon sequestration and now we do not want to be known as the city that is a haven for sex offenders. In my opinion, this fight is even more important for the future of our community. Council, move forward to enact this without further delay.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4305308739784844668.post-24612547341328093172010-12-30T23:02:16.257-05:002010-12-30T23:02:16.257-05:00The Grace Community Center does not house sex offe...The Grace Community Center does not house sex offenders or anyone at the facility.

Mr. Graham is kidding himself if he thinks that waiting 6 months for "cooler heads to prevail" is going to solve this issue. However, 6 months might be long enough for him to acquire another house or two. The emotion surrounding this is NOT going away, but there are a lot of us who would like to see HIM go away.Alex Bnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4305308739784844668.post-64506160951505813132010-12-30T20:54:52.655-05:002010-12-30T20:54:52.655-05:00Winter of 2009, the City of Greenville had a total...Winter of 2009, the City of Greenville had a total of 34 sex offenders. 15 of the 34 sex offenders including tier 3's were concentrated in one area of the community.
