The BIGGEST joke is that a long while ago some real estate numbnuts named the area THE ARTIST DISTRICT, I think there's still a sign. Never was the language so badly mangled. ONE artist moved in and moved back out.

Hang them for murder and take down the projects! I'm done with these animals!

The Curries Woods "Projects" was taken down about 10 years ago. It is now those Hope VI town houses with only one project tower left but it is only for seniors and the disabled. It is now more like what they turned Lafayette and Duncan into and what Montgomery will become.

I do find it ironic you ask for them to be hanged when they murdered out of revenge. So it would seem you are using the same mentality as them, an eye for an eye.

He knows that the hardworking downtown folk of HP (as in those of who will be working during that time of day) see right through him and his corrupt cronies.

I hope that those of you who do go will call him out on his shenanigans, and loudly boo this shameless leader of a council of crooks (minus Steve, of course).

I always pick up my dog's poop and never throw it in other people's trash cans, BUT I wish the city was more diligent about emptying the public trash bins we do have. This morning I was about to throw out a poop bag but noticed that the bin was literally stuffed to the rim and flies were buzzing all around it. Yes, an over abundance of poop--on the sidewalks or left to sit in the bins-- leads to a hefty fly population. Luckily there was another, slightly less full bin across the street.

if the poop is properly bagged, how is this a problem? (don't let the avatar mislead you, I am currently dogless, and not leaving bags of poop anywhere.)

Because its not bagged in steel. Plastic bags are easily ripped open by other items in the trash, or if not tied securely they can just dump their contents. Not to mention the fact that its disrespectful to throw anything out in someone else's yard.

I agree 100%. If it's just dog poop in a tied up bag then carry it a few blocks to a proper public can. How lazy can people be?

I'm actually not sure that they will. I think they just take the grant money and say they wrote the tickets

Drivers here still speed, run stop signs, talk on cell phones and don't yield to pedestrians in crosswalks. Sometimes all at the same time.

It is the end of the month, they will definitely be ticketing to fill quotas. Once this is over they will go back to not really caring.

I think any adult should have the choice to wear a seat belt but shouldn't be forced to. I could understand kids being forced to wear them.

I'm not sure what you mean by that. My current neighborhood has 2 bodegas and a laundromat-- that's it. Nowhere to get takeout or grab a beer. Is this neighborhood the same?

Only if the alleged perpetrators were avenging a murder. Otherwise, it could be more like an eye for an eyelash.
