What is a constable?
Constable is an old law enforcement office that has been largely ignored in this area. We can continue to ignore it, but I would like to repurpose it.
As Big Rock Constable, I will meet with and listen to anyone or any group that wants to work to make our communities better places to live. I will work with anyone to bring about positive results. I am concerned about the problems of homelessness and litter in our communities, but the most important part of my job will be to know what YOU think we need to change in your community. The only way to do that is to be available to meet and willing to work with you.
If you want to begin a grass roots, ground up effort to make a positive difference in your neighborhood, I want to meet you, listen to you and work with you.
I am not into partisan politics. I’ve been elected to local offices; once as a Republican, twice as an Independent and once as a Libertarian. Party labels don’t mean much to me. In truth, I fear that political parties make things more difficult by dividing us.
Why choose me? I have done this before. I served as Coroner of Grant County, Mayor of Tull, and Constable of Dekalb Township. As a constable, I didn’t try to be a supercop or any other kind of cop. I just tried to help my neighbors. Essentially, I believe that everyone has a right to live their lives as they see fit, so long as they do not violate the rights of others. If there is no victim, there is no crime.
Let’s talk.
