This is not necessarily a bad thing though, as sometimes a lot needs to be said and many different directions need to be explored. It just makes it difficult to reply to.<BR/><BR/>However, in this case I was able to isolate one short but comprehensive fragment of your commentary and provide an equally short reply.<BR/><BR/>You said "...a safe city, where its fun to party, without harassment, or undue criminal intrusions. And where our elected officials, cops, lawyers, bankers, doctors, and such are all held to the same standards of law enforcement, as well."<BR/><BR/>I say "Well said, I agree completly."<BR/><BR/>Also "Exactly what ARE you smoking?"Phil Marxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04372454786699413982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11887973.post-85442758082257477172008-03-14T16:11:00.000-04:002008-03-14T16:11:00.000-04:00According to one of the stories, Lori Squadrito is...According to one of the stories, Lori Squadrito is the former daughter-in-law of Joe Squadrito.Phil Marxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04372454786699413982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11887973.post-22300607566083464632008-03-13T22:12:00.000-04:002008-03-13T22:12:00.000-04:001.

It is up to the officer to be rested at the start of his shift. Other than that, it isn't really anybody's business what they do in their free time.<BR/>3. There probably should be reasonable limits on what an officer can use his take-home squad car for. Can he take it shopping? Can he bring it along on a date? Can he use it for other jobs? Even if the answer is no (and it should be) it is still hard to enforce those rules.<BR/>4. I defend the practice of officers working private security this way: Some officers wish to fight crime 7 days a week. But the city cannot afford to pay for that. So the officers find other sponsers. It is only fair that the officers fight crime at a location designated by their sponser.Robert Endershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15592475828737641009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11887973.post-63189791014654396842008-03-13T19:49:00.000-04:002008-03-13T19:49:00.000-04:00Just out of curiosity, is Lori Squadrito related t...Just out of curiosity, is Lori Squadrito related to former Allen County Sheriff Joe Squadrito?Tim Zankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14619436377992741061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11887973.post-51667748356619250592008-03-13T17:38:00.000-04:002008-03-13T17:38:00.000-04:00thank you for your support.

But we are all responsible, and have citizens arrest powers, and gun rights, to keep the peace and protect our selves, and our neighbors, in the absence of the police- such as natural disasters, or other civil unrest. We are our brothers keepers in this respect.<BR/>And we also must keep our childrens faith in the police, as their delegated guardians to keep an eye out for the kids, as well.<BR/>But I am against the abuse of police power, and so strict enforcement of laws, so as to restrict our freedoms, and civil liberties.<BR/>And uneven enforcement of laws- such as 1992-2005 select enforcement of illegal racketeering, and political corruption-cherrymasters, etc.<BR/>example: why is the "Marijuana mastermind"/6 milion dollar BUDman in jail- when he wasnt trafficking to minors, and it was between consenting adults-and the neighbors didnt even know(they finally stopped him on a pretext? traffic stop for speeding? 8 miles over? thats a lame excuse- and wouldnt hold up in court, which would have everything subsequent as inadmissible.<BR/>Yet, white collar criminals- such as Elliot spitzer- dont even spend a night, or weekend in jail- he hasnt even been fingerprinted, and boked, yet.<BR/>they walk free? you know if you or I were arrested on a friday night for .085, we would be in jail until monday morning- all weekend, late for work( released after 3)if to work at all- cant phone in. then we'd lose our jobs, our licenses, our homes. our insurance would be canceled, and then branded a "dangerous criminal", and so unable to be hired by even wal-mart.(note- 900 childmolesters in FTW http://www.insor.org in allen county-employed by local employees.)<BR/>then all the local tax-evading employers hiring illegal guests-illegally. the local banks that gladly accept their illegal moneys, illegally, and gladly assiat them in illegal? international money transfers to their home countries. theres about 100 federal laws being broken there.<BR/>All I want to do is work, pay as little taxs a possible, live as cheaply as possible, and be left alone by the cops, and everybody else, unless I invite them in, or need to call 911. I just want to smoke pot, drink alcohol, frolic with my female friends, tend my lawn, grow my garden, and live my life in peace, and quiet, free from police harassment. and wave hello to officer friendly, so he knows I'm a basically harmless guy, same as him, with the same goals- a safe city, where its fun to party, without harassment, or undue criminal intrusions. And where our elected officials, cops, lawyers, bankers, doctors, and such are all held to the same standards of law enforcement, as well. we can start by randomly drug testing all of allen County Bar licensed lawyers- as they are officers of the court, and like Mr. spitzer- are held to an even higher standard to obey the laws. drug use is breaking the laws, which lawyers are sworn by oath to uphold. the rest of us- well, we're not lawyers.<BR/>and convening a grand jury to indict the politicians who presided over "the biggest illegal gambling racket in the recent history of allen county(under the helmke, and richard administrations)and their police comand staff, and others who may have know, or not known about it, and who again- harass us citizens, and residents on a daily basis- especlayy the DUI Nazis.<BR/>thank you. i'll shut up again for now.David C Roachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03001418779103813547noreply@blogger.com
