Ok, look what the moron has now posted on the TU crime blog. This was brought to my attention by one of our paid scouts who monitor, track and record everything every prominent democrap in the county does and says in case they ever want to run for office again.
read the comments and we will see our resident troll has taken up a new post at the TU. Manye we all need to start posting videos of him there.

i don’t understand why business’s do not call the cops after tossing them out, bars do not, it is a dangerous situation that perhaps could be defused before it gets this out of control..call the cops next time after kicking them out..
Comment by appalled — January 31st, 2012 @ 8:31 am 2.
If they called the cops everytime they kicked some loudmouth out of that facility (or the 2 others within a block) the Schenectady cops would just set up shop at Smith and Clinton. I work near that corner and have more than once left my office with a window out of fear that gunplay might soon follow.

I know someone who knows someone who was a witness. Not a far away bystander either. I’m glad that the stabbers were arrested.
Comment by Ann — January 31st, 2012 @ 1:47 pm 4.
Ann – better be careful. You might get called to testify with all that information…
Comment by John Wells — January 31st, 2012 @ 2:53 pm 5.
LOL John
I think the news reports claim that there was a call to the police during the altercation but obviously not soon enough. I guess the bible study didn’t have much effect on calming the situation. Evil people in the world.

Another sad story about our city. In all reality downtown Schenectady is not a bad place to live but unfortunately events like this cast a dark shadow on what could be an up and coming area.
Comment by Downtown Resident — January 31st, 2012 @ 6:09 pm 7.
This is just a continuation of the downward spiral of Schenectady and US society in general. Look at the photos of the perps. Have any of you liberals from CP or Delmar ever met a crack head? Well this is what you see on the streets of Schenectady and Albany every day. THe left calls them the “poor” and blames racism, capitalism etc. for their plight. The crack heads(usually from outside of the Capital District) gravitate to this area because of sympathetic law enforcement (DA Soares) and the glorification of the “poverty ” industry by the media, especially the TU and Gazette.

Comment by elmer — January 31st, 2012 @ 9:01 pm 9.
Taxman are you serious? Where does it say this was a disagreement over crack? If I read between the lines I see a lovers’ quarrel and nothing more. Besides bashing liberals taxman, what have you done to improve the decline of society? Do you live in an urban area? Do you volunteer your time for the betterment of society? What is this poverty industry you are describing… you think that food stamps and roach infested public housing are glorious ways to live? I should not even waste my time with someone as ill informed as yourself.

I would recommend that ALL posters withhold judgment until ALL the facts have been arrived at.. The idiot Nayboobs of Negativity want to declare that Downtown is unsafe yet indeed it IS one of the safest places in the region, IF not in America……… The last time I was a victim of a crime it was in a REPUBLICAN controlled area – - Last time I checked, Schenectady IS one of the safest cities in New York and our FINE Police and EXCELLENT administrations at BOTH the City and County levels deserve the credit!

@City Voice of Reason – it’s no secret here that I am generally a supporter of law enforcement. Having said that – you may want to back off the FINE Police talk here when referring to Schenectady PD. They still have a ways to go over there before they get it fixed!
Comment by John Wells — February 1st, 2012 @ 7:34 am 13.
Taxman, I have to say I agree with you in regards to the courts letting these criminals off way too easy. Both of these fine citizens have multiple felony areests pleaded down to violations and misdeameanors. He stabbed someone in 2009 and she stabbed him 3 times in 09 with a screwdriver. If they were put away then for an extended period of time and given help for their addictions this may not have happened. We have to start putting these violent criminals away for longer than a day or 2, and start giving them multiple years, I don’t care what Ann Pope says, some of these people are just not meant to be in society, their society is in a jail or prison cell.
So Elmer that is why I would blame David Soares.

The general consensus among the residents of our community is that the REPUBLICANS destroyed Schenectady for numerous reasons.. Unfortunately the FACTS are that the Schenectady Police and First Responders were not being built UP by the GOP but were being torn DOWN – - on a regular basis…….. The Democratic Party has worked hand in glove to resolve any issues the Officers have had with the administrations at the Town, City AND County level……. Morale has improved and the political leaders are finding ways to make certain that the Police have ALL the tools they need – - DESPITE what the NNTP/GOP Nayboobs and slackers demand. As long as the people of Schenectady BACK their leaders AND their First Responders I predict that crime will eventually be almost nonexistent in the community. Don’t let one minor incident soil the image of the Renaissance that is everyday being talked about far and wide….. Ms. Savage’s Miracle is snowballing and negativity is not something we NEED to focus on.

Well, it’s been a long time since I’ve heard Sch’dy referred to as one of the safest places in america. Go ahead and take a stroll through the hill after midnight on the day of your choice since it’s blocks from downtown. Please report back on your ‘safe’ experience. The PD there has been rogue for 30 years so that is another outlandish statement. And finally, Elmer telling someone else to ‘go away’ was the cherry on the ice cream – thanks for such a great laugh to start my morning.

David Soares has no authority over crimes committed in Schenectady County (as in this case)as he is the Albany County District Attorney.

Since I can see the crime scene from my office and have seen both the victim and the attacker in the area almost daily for several years, this hits home. Had I gotten to work on my former schedule I’d have been walking by that lot at about the time she was stabbed.
I have spoken to people who were in the office and a co-worker who sometimes volunteers at the Salvation Army at breakfast. This couple has long been a problem. They both have past assaults and have fought violently on the street many times. They have also been verbally abusive and physically violent toward others. The victim in this case was many times the “bully” in others.
I hate to say it but when I found out the circumstances, I was somewhat relieved. I was concerned that the victim might have been a B of A or “The Eddy” employee who was stabbed to death in a robbery while walking from her car. I’m asked about once or twice a week or money or cigarettes. That I can deal with but many times when I get to work, I sit in my car because I’d noticed one or two people watching me drive in and just waiting, pacing, glancing at my car. I sit and wait until someone else arrives. My assigned parking space is about 40 feet from the scene of the stabbing.

There are NO SUC problems in Downtown that ARE NOT found in OTHER places……. The Nattering Nayboobs of Negativity are attempting to SMEAR Downtown AND the Renaissance – - which I might add, is growing bigger and better – - each day…….. To those who want to knock the City DOWN – - instead of building it UP – - I say that you are dastardly Naysayers and pathetic BASHERS.
Comment by City Voice of Reason and Hope — February 1st, 2012 @ 6:36 pm 21.
To conclude my ranting, the city of Schenectady and the bad name that it has isn’t new! Late 80′s through the 90′s Schenectady was known as the final migration point for wanna-be drug dealers looking to escape the competition they faced in lower NY state and New Jersey. You sell crack? Well I know a place that you can move to where you can almost triple your profits! And slowly it has progressed into an out of control city filled with street loitering youth bent on self destruction! Too many people are living day to day in fear! And the general outlook throughout the city is that it will hit rock bottom (which it hasn’t yet) before people start to rebuild it back to at least a standard worthy of speaking about..

Testimony is key in plea deal Woman who supplied knife testifies against boyfriend in murder case By Paul Nelson Updated 08:22 p.m., Monday, May 7, 2012
SCHENECTADY — A woman who admitted possessing a hunting knife that her boyfriend allegedly used in a fatal stabbing has agreed to testify against him as part of a plea deal.
Under the negotiated plea, Sonya Hall, 44, pleaded guilty Monday to one count of felony criminal possession of a weapon in exchange for a 1½- to 4½-year prison sentence. She is scheduled to be sentenced Oct. 9.
During Monday's proceeding, Schenectady County Judge Karen Drago granted a request by Chief Assistant District Attorney Philip Mueller to seal the cooperation component of the plea bargain, citing the "integrity of the ongoing investigation and for the safety of all involved."
Mueller said Hall on Friday gave a sworn statement to the DA's office about the killing. He said she did not have any physical contact with the victim, Tammi Washington, 43, and was not the assailant.

What a freaking Joke... The best part is the person who asks him to take a stroll thorugh any one of our neighborhoods after midnight, lol.
For example, from here you can find http://rotterdamny.info/m-1293977477/ were number 1! what a joke you are to pretend things are that great, the GOP neighboobs don't have anyone as irrational and hell bent on lieing to save their party. I personally don't know how you sleep at night lieing to the good people you are suposed to be serving. It's disgusting.
I don't spell check! Sorry... If you include "No offense" in a statement, chances are, your statement is offensive.
Ok don't believe official reports - then all the above stats are not valid either based on that logic.
and again- we should base our opinions on your assertions of what people tell you because foficial records cannot be trusted but you can.
and I don't recall anyone asserting Downtown is utopia - sounds like a quote from the strawman
