City Council wants to change law to even first time offenders getting hit with a $500 fine and other things

Most of these people were HomeSchoolers, one guy mentioned that a friend in Irving had two kids arrested earlier in the day for truancy though their private school was on SPRING BREAK this week vs the city school district being on it last week.

So don't really talk about truancy laws, though in the cities the Police and not Truancy Officers are doing the arresting now pretty much, but the content.

Not that many people so hard to get many good shots, a lot of local press (TV crews) were there, did not see any of the local papers shooters though.

Nice shots, Paul.

I wonder if any of the TV stations showed wide shots of the crowd to show there weren't that many people there. Often it's just a tight shot of the reporter and it can make it look crowded vs. the reality.

No I saw only tight shots and personal interviews on the local news.

Figures! Your images tell the real story.
