There is NOTHING that "reeks" about the two council members involved here! See the following:
reek [reek]
verb (past and past participle reeked, present participle reek·ing, 3rd person present singular reeks)
1. transitive and intransitive verb smell strongly: to have a very strong and unpleasant smell, or give off such a smell
The room reeked of smoke.
2. transitive and intransitive verb give clear evidence of something unpleasant: to show very strong evidence of an unpleasant quality
The document reeks of the double standard.
3. intransitive verb give off smoke: to give off smoke, steam, or fumes
a reeking pile of burning tires
4. transitive verb U.S. treat something with smoke: to process or treat something with smoke
noun
1. unpleasant smell: a very strong unpleasant smell
a reek of disinfectant
2. regional visible vapor: smoke, steam, or other visible vapor
[ Old English rēocan < Indo-European]
reek or wreak? Do not confuse the spelling of reek and wreak, which sound similar. Reek is a noun or verb referring to a strong unpleasant smell (as in the reek of rotting vegetables; the place reeked of disinfectant) or to smoke or fumes given off (as in reeking heaps of burning refuse). As a verb it can also mean "be evidence of something unpleasant," as in the whole affair reeked of incompetence. Wreak is a verb only meaning "cause havoc or destruction" or "inflict revenge or punishment."

netdoc37, you might want to check your dictionary before making such inflammatory accusations next time. The two council members involved, at least to my knowledge, do not smell badly. Further, our less than illustrious FORMER EXSPENSIVE administrator apparently is no longer a problem. If I remember correctly it was he who initiated the suit. IF, the current administrator wants to continue the same course then, I think he will find it "difficult" to remain in said position.

Aren't they sinners as well as criminals since they were conducting these "events" on a Sunday?
Oh yea, it is supposedly a wholesome and clean activity.
No matter how they or anyone attempts to justify it, it is illegal and perverts nature.

Two things, one, it is obvious that the parents do not care! Two,if the parents cared he would not have been a party to the crime and they would have been in court to begin with.
Let us all hope the judge chastises the parents for not caring and not showing up for the hearing.

What is funny, or telling, is your obvious inability to compose a sentence that is properly capitalized, punctuated, structured, and/or uses decent grammar!

Where did I call you names?
Where did I ridicule you?
Where did I attempt intimidation?
Where did I insult you?

Mr. Morgan,
It looks as if you are the one that needs to do more research! Evolution DOES NOT "break" a single law of science! As far as it being a fact of science it is very well established that the scientific community accepts evolution and it IS the BASIS for all of Biological study and research! Without evolution the study of biology would not be possible.
You ask for one verifiable proof of evolution, here you go. Research MRSA (Micacillian Resistant Staphylococcus Aurea). I care not whether you worship a god, gods, or rocks! Just stop throwing your god around and please do not throw the rocks!

Only the best Governor IF, one wants the ENTIRE states education system (Primary, Secondary, and Higher Education) gutted and left for dead! Only if one wants every other entity other than the governor's own office stripped to nothing and unable to perform its stated mission!
He's great if one loves the idea of a theocratic dictatorship.
Sanford is a complete idiot and has cost this state BILLIONS if not TRILLIONS of dollars!
