These are people whom are happy to get what ever is left over to help put food on their table and not go to sleep hungry. <br /><br />It's a shame that now that you are well off and live behind the black gates. You act like you are the King of Rome. Well you know what these people don't live in gated homes in a nice area. But that doesn't mean that it is against the law to walk into your neighborhood, just to get a bag of food. They are the few that can not feast on lamb chops and caviar and drink champagne like you, the Mayor and his staff. These people come from many different walk of life and they walk miles just to get a bag of free food so that they can have a decent meal.<br /><br />I am a Social Worker and have been to many of these peoples homes and have seen first hands, where there have been nothing in their refrigerator but a gallon of water and a loaf of stale bread. Instead of making an issue, why don't you try trading place with one of them for a day; cause I don't think that you will make it for a week.<br /><br />Second why don't you have the West End Civic Ass.. volunteer their time for a an hour. Instead of acting as a pep leader.<br /> <br />This world will be in a much better place if we would have a little more compassion for those who have less. <br /><br />And, last all that money that the City staff are spending unnecessary could definitely help feed at least 150 of these folks.<br />Food for thoughtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982633190780306493.post-85766732488524209312013-09-26T08:36:56.906-04:002013-09-26T08:36:56.906-04:00Ananymous 9:39, you have it backwards.

It was Father Joe who hired friends and family as officers when told to do so by Henry "Bozo the Clown". These questionable hires couldn't and in some cases didn't even pass the psychological exams and Father Joe put guns in their hands legally. He sold his soul, so no wonder all the other pols came running to him for favors once Langley met his maker. We owe the politicizing of the HPD to Croughwell. Please don't insult the men and women in blue by canonizing him.

I know Pedro as a Social Worker and how he was so effective in helping people in his private practice as an attorney because he also had a degree in Social Work, which he applied to solve his cases and help people to turn their lives around. He won't turn people in need away. I just hope he is the same person I once met as he is a great guy. He was a humble and friendly guy even when he was successful. In my opinion he is being taken advantage of and people he trust aren't good friends. He is not a politician as for that he might need to be a bad guy and I don't think he is capable of turn that way. He might be guilty of allowing others do their way but not turning people in need away. That is not Pedro.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-982633190780306493.post-13901347187835955522013-09-25T21:39:16.878-04:002013-09-25T21:39:16.878-04:00Any officer who pursues an ATV, motor scooter, mop...Any officer who pursues an ATV, motor scooter, moped, dirt bike or motorcycle should be immediately put on foot patrol. Its unsafe for the public, the officer and lastly the character riding the item. <br /><br />Any officer or member of the police department who trusts a politician needs their head examined. I remember when Chief Croughwell was a great guy one day but the minute Henry Langley passed away (and so did his political cover) the local pols were all lashing out at him like he was a bum. That's what you get for 30 years of service and whatever anyone thinks of Father Joe he served his time, paid for the stress of the job with his health and saved a lot of officers with a good reasoned approach to discipline. A lot of cops with pensions owe that to him. <br /><br />Someone should dig up George Athanson and put him back in office because he was the last politician and even in the state he is in now would do better than the current office holder.

Dont ask ,dont tell, is NOT a good motivating tool for lighting a fire under people's ass's to go out and make it out on their own. (Please excuse the REAL cases of need you mentioned from my comment) As obesity,heart disease and diabetes is rapidly rising in our inner cities,it leads me to believe that we are making it to easy to fail by providing too much to too many that dont need it.

You give the PD no support whatsoever, yah, right, try to pull one over, so they take off and crash, and then you want to go after the PD and officer for trying to pull over an ATV. Maybe try supporting your officers before asking for any enforcement efforts. As for me, I'll turn my head, and I'll urge all other officers to do the same. You get nothing from us until you start supporting us.
