County Council (April 01)

Could that cripple nut case be the ONE and ONLY Brooks I am a dumb ass Brown?

An investment of $10 million in a private corporation on their private property doesn't quite signal party time in the county.

The bottom line is that the investment only generates five new jobs. How many of those jobs will be filled by employees already on the corporate payroll? I'd like to know.

How much of that $10 million will be spent utilizing county contractors and suppliers? I'd like to know.

You people show your true colors... Sure, its not 100 jobs or anything, but it's not exactly bad to have an investment like this in Anderson.

If the worst you can find is small positive progress, you really haven't got any material have you?

P.S. You actually don't want to know. You just love asking questions and casting doubt around. Too bad you've been at it for years and the tactic still isn't working. How soon until you barge into a council meeting and shoot everybody up? Even then, your sort won't control the destiny of our county...

Some thoughts on the public bathroom issue. First, I thought it was an April's Fools joke. Come on folks, someone as educated and relatively successful as Preston is not going to do such a thing. He and his counsel have to know better.

I think George is right here, it is probably likely that some folks were walking off the street to use the john during business hours. Sometimes those folks can be the best among us. Nothing like a drunk guy who has not bathed in a week walking in the women's bathroom around lunchtime to pee to make you think about putting up a sign. Contrary to some posts about my supposed career, I know about operating private venues open to the public, and those issues do come up. You put up a sign to cover yourself if you need to call in the fellas to haul some guy out.

Even with the melodrama that passes for politics here, I can' t see Preston ordering that people can not use the public bathroom at a public meeting. If he did, he is smart of enough to know he would make the AP's news of weird and have CNN's Jenny Moss knocking at this door. The guy is not geared that way. He and the county might even make it into a Leno joke.

Preston's way too smart for that. He'd have to be nuts to do such a thing. I don't see that.

With all doors locked, save one, and with an armed guard at that entrance, why was it necessary to stencil the no restroom message on the door in the first place? Do vagrants have to be given written notice before being physically rejected?

Stan Welch was denied access to the facility, no doubt about that.

Taylor Jones cannot possibly believe anyone would buy into his line of "sleeping vagrants" when a guard is posted during business hours.

Their excuses are thin enough to be totally transparent. That building is not Joey Preston's private, personal office building.

Let the bus roll and when it does look out for the heads that roll with it. Brooks Brown is a mean evil puppet of JP and I have no respect for him at all.Take your best shoot ,but be sure you hit the bulls eye. I take no prisoners.

What is your true agenda on this thread (and others), Const, et al? Brown's name was mentioned twice, I think, in a ton of posts. He's not the primary subject of this thread.

You have become somewhat adept at bumping the more important issues out in favor of threads that don't amount to a thing, but your scheme does not go unnoticed.

You're out on a very small limb alright, but not because you made another of your nonsense posts...

- troglodyte

I’m going to step out on a limb here

Not trying to pick a fight on a Friday afternoon, Shih, but what is the difference between what YOU and others have done or attempted to do to Stan Welch and what Stan Welch and others have attempted to do to Constituent and Joey Preston?

Seems to me there's plenty of blame to go around here. If you want the game to stop, then stop playing it. Maybe everybody else will get bored and go home.
