Hi Dawn,

Sorry, I thought you wanted people to express their views about Hugo and what the big deal is! I'm really shocked about how adamant the conversation got. Believe it or not I didn't even post most of the comments today! It got pretty heated and interesting though. Don't you think?

Yes it's very interesting, getting a little heated. Everyone can please feel free to comment away, just be respectful, thanks.

I wrote the comments regarding Manson followers, Paul Weakly, etc. I just logged on and saw the current arguement going on and that was not my intention. It's very hard to know the type of person this guy is and see people defending him. Especially people who don't know him. That's probably why I'm so defensive. I understand his family defending him. What choice do they have? Remember the old addage "You can't pick you family." I've known this person for a long time. He is truly a bad person. The controversy that's going on on your website right now is the same controversy that's been going on in this small town for quite some time. Thanks for putting up with us posting on your website!
