Exercising one’s constitutional rights is one thing.  Breaking the law is quite another.  Our laws are put in place for a reason.  Arrests were made because some laws were broken.  When is it OK to reward people for breaking our laws?  Bottom line: It’s not.

As a paid official, I think Mayor Nancy Chaney would have better things to do with taxpayers’ money than to reward people for breaking our laws (Opinion, April 18, 20).

I hope our young people are not led to believe this is an appropriate way to accomplish a goal.

Breaking the law should never be rewarded – no matter what your agenda.

No exceptions.
