Leading by example: Horgan should resign now

Commissioner Horgan, for a long period of my adult life, I had the honor of serving as a infantry officer in the U.S. Army. Until retirement, the rest of my adult life was spent as a drug and alcohol rehabilitation counselor for a Fortune 500 company.

One of the first things an officer learns is that you lead by example. In my humble opinion, sir, your example is a bad one.

All humans make bad choices at times. We then try to correct our mistakes and learn from them.

Learn from the socially unacceptable mistake you have made and do the honorable thing — resign.
