Plainville: Where ignorance of the law prevails




Another ignorant and uninformed Plainville resident has chosen to weigh in and exposes not only his ignorance, but his support of what appears to be illegal gambling without reading the pertinent statute.

The wise man said: It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
The statute is clearly written and understandable --
MGL Chapter 271, Section 7A is the governing statute, found here:
http://www.malegislature.gov/Laws/GeneralLaws/PartIV/TitleI/Chapter271/Section7A
Since the Attorney General's Office is investigating the matter, maybe judgement should be reserved until a determination is made.

Please note that the Massachusetts Gambling Commission discussed this issue at their meeting and Mr. Piontowski et al was present.

Note to Chairwoman Andrea Soucy: Please inform yourself of the LAW


In addition, it seems that the Plainville Board of Selectmen customarily violates the Open Meeting Law by discussing matters not included on the agenda, failing to adequately accommodate the public and so forth.

ALL elected officials receive a copy of the Open Meeting Law when they are sworn in and sign an acknowledgement.
