Give out tickets to mom, dad, and siblings first....then other family members....friends....
Of course in today's world there would have to be allowances for step dad, step mom, boyfriend, girlfriend, significant other, dating partner, multiple grannies and peepaws and assorted relatives thru marriage, common law relationships and facebook connections . Each graduate could conceivably have dozens and dozens of people in attendance.
Anyone who shows up minutes before such an event deserves to miss the festivities because they probably never showed much interest in the kid's entire school experience from K thru 12.
They are most likely the jerk who walk in late to the movie (disrupting other patrons), keep the dentist or doctor waiting, etc. They are also the ones most likely to hoot and holler when little darling's name is announced, disrupting the event for everyone else.
Get over it. It's not likely to be the last time your high school graduate son/daughter will provide a disappointing experience.
Another idea to find a way to create a scenario where a citizen can be stopped, arrested, charged, and then made to pay a fine or fee to resolve the situation. Just a new source of tax revenue for the state, county, city officials to add to the coffers.
What is happening ? This is a disturbing story. If true, hope that justice system handles creatively. A fine is probably not the best thing. Community service and trash picking would be best.
DwightK is right..... but I'm sure that Allied Waste be sure to send out the bills on time with a printed notification that a penalty fee will apply if they are paid late by the customer.
Each year I give a monetary gift to my collector...but not this year
Agree with poster "danikytn"....Vindy you stink. Posting the photo of the "death vehicle" covered in debris is Yellow Jounalism.....designed to appeal to the morbid curiosity of people in the hope of selling more newspapers.
How about a charge of "Domestic Terrorism"? Let the feds get on the case. Dumping an illegal substance into a major waterway which could affect the health and well-being of thousands of people meets the definition of a terrorist in my mind.
This guy is clearly someone who has no regard for anyone or anything. He was probably a smarta$$ jerk as a kid and is probably the homeowner who has complete disregard for his neighbors....let's his dog run loose, loud parties til all hours, cuts his grass or runs power equipment early on Sunday morning, etc.....generally a menace and nuisance to anyone around him.
a 1/4 mile walk? that is nothing. for people who get free parking and a govt-sponsored and supplied job this is an unnecessary benefit. plenty of people who work downtown pay for their own parking and willingly walk a lot further. this city and country is a joke

Should the blood-alcohol content to be considered driving drunk be lowered from 0.08 to 0.05?

Eight to be interviewed next week for YSU president
Why not consider Mike Rice, Jr. ?
He needs a job just like the finalists who have been kicked to the curb from their previous colleges and universities.
YSU needs a women's basketball coach and a president.
Mike, Jr. can do both.
He knows how to coach basketball and would also be good at intimidating and smacking around any faculty that tries to get out of line.
Trustees need to think outside the box.
Mike, Jr. will come here and do both jobs for a lot less than 400k.

Rutgers coach under fire after slurs, abuse captured on video
There is always a "Youngstown Connection". He is the son of former YSU basketball coach Mike Rice, Sr.
Some local coaches should take time to assess how they interact with their players.
