Community servants are accountable to their community. When they behave in particular ways publicly especially in a small town everyone knows who and how often. Why does so many people seem to think that driving under the influence and being on something or other is normal. I've never driven after even one drink.

People should accoutable for their behaviors. As for Mr. Lydon, do you think that rape should be excused because of addiction. What about the victim. Have you ever talked with a victim? It effects them in one way or another always.

The punishments should not be based on who you are, know, or what organization you are a member of.
