Two Cents

Friday, September 21, 2007 9:34 AM EDT

How many times do we have to go through this? If people would keep their cats indoors they wouldn't be out in the street where they can get hit by cars.
We have police departments all over New York state not having enough money to hire enough officers to go out on patrol and answer calls but here in “hamburger” New York we have enough money to buy portable radiation detectors. My absurdity meter is going off the scale.

Now that retired Chief Quill won the Democratic primary, if he's mayor will he be able to stand the heat as he couldn't as fire chief? Just a thought.

I wonder how much free money casino operators and bookies end up with?

If the people of Auburn and Cayuga County knew the law then they would know if you are out on parole and you violate, regardless of earlier probation terms, then you go directly back to prison, not be reinstated to probation. I wish people would look into this.

To the Two Cent contributor who thinks he is so math smart. Another retiree collecting $10,000 a year, even if you're getting $15,000 a year by the time you catch up you'll be no spring chicken.

When I think about those who get free money, I think of Haliburton, the military industrial complex, the oil cartel, casino operators, bookmakers and George Bush who takes taxpayers money and squanders it.

" Chris Van Note, I see you are still lobbying for racism. Kind of funny that you think blacks should be treated worse than whites, makes you wonder if the day you were in Court the black guy ahead of you got a lesser penalty for his DWI or something. Go cry in your beer. "

" hey JL I saved 3 ferels in the past 2yrs! the first was found by a dad who almost ran it over with a bulldozer-about 3wks old-I bottle fed it! then 3 months later some jerk left 1 wk old kittens in a 12pk beer carton at the grocery store parking lot--I took 2 home-bottle fed twins! My plan was to find them a home--but they found their home--and they are the best pets ever! So say NO to turf and save a feral cat! hahahaha "

" I think brew is right--from what i read the violators go before a judge and he decides from there..though they should be sent straight to jail for a longer time! just watched Bill Cosby Himself for the 100th time--a good laugh in this dreary world is nice! "

" Jeffs is a nutjob and is pretty much in line with the Davidians. Perverting religion and putting the squeeze on gov't benefits is no way to endear yourself to the conservatives. We were discussing the Jena 6 and found this on IMAO.com. I thought it was pretty funny: Personally, I can't see anything wrong with what the Jena 6 did. Let's face it - white people have gotten away with so much for so long that there's no reason NOT to beat them up. They must've done SOMETHING wrong lately - after all, they're WHITE - but just because the punishment doesn't directly fit the unknown possible alleged crime that they probably committed when no one was looking doesn't mean that the beating wasn't well-deserved in some greater cosmic-karmic sense of the word...The fact is, it's been scientifically proven that beating up white people will give you better grades in school and greater financial success if you're also stealing their lunch money and making them do your homework.

" If there is justice Mr.Polygamist will go to prison. The rest of his family should get counseling!! The welfare system needs to be redone. The abusers need to get a job! Those that need the help should get the help in a faster/less paperowk time-frame! "

" Actually you are subject to a hearing for your probation violation and the judge determines if you go back to jail or to tighten the terms of your probation. There is no automatic back to jail. "

" Hey I'm watching the Warren Jeffs polygamy/rape trial and I have a question for all you Conservatives out there who rail against the welfare system and the unfortunates who need it--what's your feelings on these sheisters who have like, 20 "wives" and 19 of them (and their three dozen children) are all on the public dole. They all draw government assistance, and abuse the system in an egregious manner. Do you hold the same contempt for them, or do ya "let 'em slide" in the name of "Religious expression"? Discuss! "
