If we have to have police that the mayor chooses we dont need any.Its not what you do wrong when you break the law in Marionville its who you are when you do break it, that is the deciding factor of whether is it legal or not!!! There are two sets of laws in Marionville, the Mayors Laws and the ACTUAL LEGAL ones!!!! I tried to post a comment on the Marionville post under the "Marionville Police Department and Their Puppet Master forum, but they won't let anyone else voice their oppinion on there after the police had there say on 5 of the comments. Want to talk about fair and having rights. How about FREEDOM OF SPEECH FOR EVERYONE!! NOT JUST FOR THE ONES WITH GUNS!! It is my opinion that Marionville is being drove straight to hell and the mayor is driving the bus!Q! As i said that is my opinion you decide that for yourself and then - IF YOU DON'T LIKE HOW IT IS NOW THEN PLEASE, GO VOTE AND CHANGE IT COME ~APRIL~ SINCERELY CONCERNED

I think they are a joke and a waist of my tax paying money... We would be better off with county!!!!

then you deserve what happens to you.

And what would that be resident????????

Here is what I think, I interviewed for Marionville's Police Chief job, not only was I turned down because I am a younger officer with only five years under my belt, but I do think fearest in the best way to police anyone. If you break the law then you pay for it, no if ands or buts about it. Then they hire this guy you yes suppose to be a man of god, that is crap look at the way they are treating people. Their Officers don't know their right hands from their left.

THEY ARE ALL OF THESE EXCEPT DOING A GREAT JOB...

So you think there are are both too many and too few police? And you think they are both run by the county and by the Mayor?

April are you implying that the mayor or the police are somehow controlling who can and cannot post in a public forum? I don't see how that would be possible. I was able to add a post a few minutes ago. Maybe you should try your post again.:)

dON'T BE TO HARSH ON MARIONVILLE POLICE, AFTER ALL THEIR BEGINERS, NOW IF YOU REALLY WANT AN EXPERT POLICE DEPT. TRY THE AURORA POLICE DEPT. LOLOLOL TALK ABOUT A BUNCH OF CHICKEN THIEVES.

every town I have ever lived...everyone has always hated the police...for some reason or another.... you can't please everyone...just like having a president...plenty of people that voted him in..disagree with decisions he has made...

I am a parent...my kids love me when they need me.and hate me when I discipline them....same with cops, presidents, Pastors, teachers, bosses...etc...

Our local police and mayor have succeeded in actually running a business out of town... The Marionville package (liquor) store has been here atleat 50 years that I know of and now it is gone!!! Guess they don't like revenue??? or is it the type of people that they served???

Turning left from hwy. 265 on to hwy. 60, my left rear tire broke loose from the pavement and barked a little. The cop who pulled me over said how old are we today? I gave him my age and told him I didn't mean to bark my tire. He then told me I almost got sideways and asked me for my drivers licence and registration. With his lie and attitude I knew I was going to get a ticket! I paid $199.oo a piece for my tires and I'm not going to burn them off just to get SIDEWAYS in the middle of the highway. Yep, he gave me a ticket for careless and imprudent driving! I haven't had a ticket in 5 years, and I'm ticked off! I will never go though marionville or shop there ever again!!!!!!!!!! P.S. does anyone know a good attorney

I live in MO. not AL. I don't know how Townly,AL. got put in.

I bet the reason the officer asked you your age is because you not only did something childish you seem to complain like one to. You did admit to your guilt on this blog, thats half the battle to becoming an adult.$199.00 is probably what your ticket is going to cost, and rightfully so...dumb ass! Marionville doesnt want you or your money, the police bring in enough. You might want to hire a lawyer that has a lot of experience in juvenile crime, because that sounds about your SPEED!! Its a shame that people dont take responsibility for the dumb shit they do. I think the officer should have taken you to jail and inconvienced you more, make you bond out and what not. Plus you could of possibly road in their HOT NEW CAR!! I would even be envious of you!! HA HA HA NOT!! Just so you know I do support MPD and I love my BOYS IN BLUE!! GOOD JOB GUYS!! I feel safer with my kids on the street knowing your out there kicking ass!!

Yours truely,

HAPPY ON ODELL

All i can say is "WOW" your an idiot! Being a citizen of Marionville and a supporter of my BOYS IN BLUE I take offence to you talking badly about them for something you admit you did wrong! Please do not come to OUR city driving like an idiot and expect us to take your side! Get YOURSELF a very good lawyer because our BOYS are top knotch highly trained professionals that do a great JOB! I let my kids play outside now, where before I didnt. There is more to the picture then you getting a ticket for being a fool. I would reccomend jail time to you for you erratic driving. US 60 is a major road and I drive my kids on it. I am thankful people are scared to drive fast and reckless that means us law abidding folks dont have to worry about you dips shits hitting us and taking out our families! PLEASE DONT COME BACK

Thank you,

Safe on ODell

Yeah stay away LOSER!

I love to see the support! I am with you guys, MPD is like nothing I have seen before. They actually let my kid sit in the new car, bunch of meanies they are not! If I had the money they would have two new CHARGERS...good job guys keep those dicks out of OUR HUMBLE TOWN...YES WE HAVE A DRUG PROBLEM KAY!

I would definately have to say that the last 4 comments (all from the same person obviously) is the most unintelligent childish rambling I have ever read in my life! "Marionville doesnt want you or your money, the police bring in enough." Where in the world do you think they get their money if it's not from people like this guy. I still don't understand where we got enough money to buy a $40,000 car when they say they have only given 300 tickets this year? "our BOYS are top knotch highly trained professionals that do a great JOB!" This comment is just the funniest thing I've ever heard, you may want to ask the rest of "your" community what they think! Even the rest of the police departments around here as well as retired officers don't understand why they needed to waste money on that car when no one ever run's from them, this isn't Kansas City it is Marionville. lol. These highly trained professionals wouldn't last a minute in a big city like K.C. The car is a big ass waste of money! Maybe if the were more community orriented they could have taken the less fortunate children in our town shopping for christmas presents like the other communities do, but NO, they buy themselves a very expensive waste of a car? When they do something like Nixa and Ozark and help out the needy kid's I may think a little differently, but they didn't, they expensively thought of themselves!

$40,000 my ass. Talk about being MISINFORMED! Try between 23-25K, but nice try. Nixa and Ozard have more revenue generated, and are a bit bigger. When you start neglecting the police, all those poor needy children you talk about will be defenseless. I could sit here all night and explain racial profiling and how you keep track of tickets and stops, but you still would hate the police department. What does having a new car have anything to do with "Even the rest of the police departments around here as well as retired officers don't understand why they needed to waste money on that car when no one ever run's from them." So lets give the police department a junker because nobody runs from them, just like nobody ever though COLOMBINE WOULD HAPPEN OR 911, just give our troops shitty gear, its not like people are gonna shoot at them...your a TARD!

Actually they are $22,000-$36,000 depending on whether you want more power or not and I am sure there's isn't standard. If I remember right the vehicles they are driving aren't that old, we just bought those a couple year's ago. And I am pretty sure when some nut job goes shooting up the town that car isn't gonna help them anymore than the old one's so that was retardation on your part! I bet those kid's sitting there on Christmas morning with nothing will be real glad the cop's blew 25-35 grand on a new toy for themselves? That is what it is, a new toy, it was an unecessary item and everyone in town think's so as well! It is a waste of my time to get in a piss throwing fight with you because no one will ever win! Your thought's and beliefs are the minority in this town, I have not heard any one else happy about all of this?
