And under your buddy Stratton, what were the police doing? I guess you think they were all goody goody
Gee, no muggers downtown? How about armed robbers in broad daylight in downtown??????? What do you call it when, at about 4:00 in the afternoon, in broad daylight, during the rush hour traffic going home (LEAVING the city), a guy with a gun enters a downtown restaurant and robs them?
What do you call it when, in broad daylight, someone with a gun enters Cornells and robs them???????
Uh, DV., what about the brawls in the taxpayer funded Bombers??????? What's THAT all about????? In return for the taxpayer handout to open the place, AND in return for an annual refund of taxes NOT paid (i.e., they get a 150% property and school tax exemption....that is 150%) they cost the taxpayers ADDITIONAL money because the police have to respond to the brawls down there, right in the middle of the taxpayer funded downtown. SOOOOOOO tell us what THAT is all about?
What do YOU call it when the taxpayer funded Bombers requires the services of EACH AND EVERY Schenectady cop working in a given shift in order to address an incident at the taxpayer paid business in downtown??????
What do YOU call it when ALL the taxpaying residents of the city are left WITHOUT THE POLICE SERVICE THEY ARE PAYING FOR because EACH AND EVERY city cop has to be sent to Bombers??????? What do YOU call that????? Huh??????
And tell us DV, what do YOU call a shooting at the taxpayer funded Bombers????? What is that??????
What do YOU call the violence downtown?????? Huh???????
aka "Working together works"! To screw County taxpayers-reward friends-hog all the good paying public sector jobs. After getting the pay increased. And nobody knows from nuthin while the Gazetto reports on Kirk Douglas' Birthday!
Republicans and those other right-wing extremist authoritarians can't tolerate the idea of cooperation and working together. It is NOT a part of their lifestyle nor their vocabulary. They prefer rigid obedience to the elite leadership .. they prefer that everyone goose-step in unison to the orders that they bark. The trouble is that of the Nattering Nayboobs of Negativity who post here --- each one of them is under the dillusion that he or she is the supreme leader.

Violence downtown is when MikeChristine eats too much Christmas candy and goes into one of his-her uncontrolled hissy fits.
You can never address the facts, can you. You are obviously too embarrassed to admit that you are wrong. So, care to explain the armed robberies during the daylight in downtown?????? Can you explain to us all the major troubles at the taxpayer funded Bombers?
Is it just and proper for the taxpayers to be left without any police protection in order to send each and every cop to the taxpayer funded Bombers????? Well?
Optimists close their eyes and pretend problems are non existent. Better to have open eyes, see the truths, acknowledge the negatives, and speak up for the people rather than the politicos and their rich cronies.
The jobs were saved and no services were cut --- so the issue is resolved.
Resolved???? And would you care to tell us HOW the financially struggling taxpayers are supposed to foot the bill for a WHOPPING 12% raise in this terrible economy when people are losing jobs and getting no raises at all, and many are having their pay cut>
Tell us DV.
And, uh, would you care to tell us what your buddy Stratton did to prevent the pension padding?????? Well??????? Tell us DV, tell us WHAT is in the contract to prevent pe3nsion padding.
A whopping 12% raise ON TOP OF ENDLESS PENSION PADDING via unlimited OT
