Speakout: July 31, 2012

-- Press-Republican

Toilets

We don’t have a public toilet but used to let customers use it when they’ve asked. Now they can’t use it anymore, because men don’t put the seat up, women don’t sit down, and no one flushes. We got tired of cleaning up yout urine, and now you’re mad at us.

Camping

Has the owner of the Wal-Mart parking lot ever thought about charging for overnight camping? All they would need to do is put water and sewer in for our Canadian friends. But let a truck driver go to sleep, and they want to give them a ticket.

Health care

Universal health care ruled OK. One more thing for poor working slobs to pay for so that the “entitled” can suck up our money. Do you really think the slugs are going to buy health insurance or be able to pay a fine when they laugh at us supporting them now?

Insurance

Dear Mr. President, I don’t own a car. I don’t need one. I ride a bike less than one mile to work. Are you going to force me to buy car insurance too? 

Pine

A camera should be installed on the new area of Pine Street where it was made a one-way and catch automobiles going down the one-way street, as well as catch people skateboarding or jogging in the road. There are signs stating: One Way or Wrong Way.

Patrol

The City Beach needs a patrol person just to check on things. A few teens are going there to not just enjoy the beach, if you know what I mean.

Dog

Shame on the Canadians who left their dog in their car with the windows barely cracked today; it was 117 degrees in there. If I wasn’t working, I would have broken your window and given your dog a better home. A citation wasn’t enough punishment for you.

Singing

It was a peaceful Saturday night until I heard the “wantabe” Elvis over the sound of my television, over my fan. It is 10 p.m.; I don’t want to hear you.
