Op-ed: Values: What do they mean? (by Peter Children)

Values: What do they mean?  First you must define the word itself.  The dictionary tells us it means a “fair return” when considering monetary matters. “Something as principle or matters when considering something human rather than material.”  The word has broad meaning in life, but in the final version as it pertains to each of us, you either have the necessary values to know what is right, or you are mentally corrupt

Of late I have written about drugs on the NIACCC campus; and when I did all hell broke lose. People from every ilk came out of the closet and from under the rocks to pillage me for some unspeakable act that was to remain forever hidden in plain sight.

There is an old saying that goes like this; “You can’t have your cake and eat it too.”  There are discernible  crimes being committed in this city that can be tied inextricably to that campus…unequivocally without a shred of doubt.  Once and forever lets put this matter where it belongs…in plain sight, in the open. If you are serious about eradicating drugs in this community….stop with the bullshit and get serious.

The school has a greater responsibility to both the students and parents to do a more efficient job on their part than they have in the past to help fight this problem.  It no longer is a campus problem, it’s now a city wide problem, and I will add not in any way entirely brought about NIACC but they certainly were a major contributor at one time. …and without knowing still could be.

Let this then be the last word on this matter; without doubt, not all drugs enter this city from across that campus, but it certainly is worth a closer look than it has gotten up to now.
