Missing In Action
As I observed yesterday’s prayer vigil for IMPD Officer Jason Fishburn, I noticed the elected officials. I saw the Mayor, City-County Council members Paul Bateman, Susie Day and Ben Hunter. I even saw State Representative David Orentlichter.
I will admit that in the crowd of hundreds I might have missed a few. But I didn’t see a lot of other people, particularly the ones who spend a lot of time talking.
It would have been nice if some of the people who purport to be leaders of this community would have showed up.
Maybe they had other commitments or were out of town or just couldn’t be bothered.
Oh well, I’m sure they have some reason.
