i know what i'm talking about, i live at hudson view and i saw the whole thing unfold from the…Read More beginning to the end,unlike you who sits behind a screen and type what he or she hears, i saw first hand what went on and what didn't happen, and yes the excavator did in fact start tearing down the building before any investigation started,regardless of what you say, i know what happened, there is and old saying that goes like this, " believe less of what you hear and more of what you see", this fits you TELEMAN, if you really want to know what happened , you can ask me, hell i'll even meet you in person, but if you what to continue believing the bs that the mayor and others are putting out there, then go ahead.as far as moving on , i have and so have the people who lost everything, but what remains is a mayor who is hell bent on building a muti-million dollar firehouse and the firefighters can't even get water to fight fires. "fire houses don't save lives, water to fight fires do." once again TELEMAN, if you want the truth see me, if not continue listening to the "BS", in the long run the "BS" will run it's course, and the truth will be right there waiting.

yeah, but let the mayor tell it, that never happened, ( the excavator tearing down the building…Read More before the investigators even got to the scene) just like all the other lies that they have told.

With all these non profits not paying taxes they have certainly made a lot of us who pay the bills…Read More for them non profit also.

@w Kelly.....Ahhhhhhhhh maybe the cops are not educated about addiction?? Why not ask the neighbors…Read More of the soon-to-be closed HVHC Methadone Clinic -- the veterinarian, residents in hear-by homes, the stores and restaurants in the shopping center, etc. -- have they experienced any "problems" with the clients going to the clinic ?? Personally, I believe the "cops" should be focusing on the known areas to buy drugs -- it does not take a rocket scientist to see the dealers. What happened to the bike patrols used by the police dept ???
As said by another, thank goodness we live in the U.S. for freedom of speech.

We've got the Constitution on our side. Although it is being eroded, we still have quite a large…Read More number of the population who still believes in it- 46,455 gun background checks per day since bama got in office- ( yes, we already do background checks for the majority of gun purchases)

Let's face it- we can find niche studies to suit any position we take- but the justice department…Read More study I am citing is a large piece that goes from 1993-2010- before, during and after the 1994 assault weapons ban -and it spans a pretty large time frame in which to draw these conslusions. This is a very comprehensive look at gun crime in the US- and it shows massive decline despite rising ownership. Deny all you want, because to continue your agenda, it's your only choice.

Tele, I keep hearing the mantra from the right saying more guns equal less crime. The truth however…Read More flies in the face of this propaganda. A recent study actually shows that the highest homicide rates are in the states with the fewest gun controls. States like Louisiana, South Carolina, Mississippi and Alaska just to name a few.
Sure, there are fewer homicides in Alaska than in New York, but adjusted for population, the per-ca-pita homicide rate is significantly lower in New York.
