IMHO Crime is starting to go nuts. On West 6th st we had fights of up to 40 take place.
ReplyDeleteOh but there's no crime here, according to Lying John...
ReplyDeletePerhaps we should coax the gang-bangers to leave the bodies on the front steps at City Hall. I would have suggested his parking spot, but seeing as he's never in his office, it's a wasted effort.
As long as they are Black or Hispanic looks like the City does not care, after they are not spending money in the bars downtown
ReplyDeleteWhy do people always think it's about race? If the all gangbangers disappeared along with their drug-dealing, the shootings would stop. Plain and simple.
ReplyDeleteAnd all the mayor is worried about is buying houses. What is he going to do about the gangs and violence in this town?
ReplyDeleteIMHO we will see the City owned homes marketed to the Illegals in Racine to gain support for Dickert. Without voter ID we will see lots of vote stealing to keep the Dems in power
ReplyDelete6:18 - and how do you suggest he do that? Be specific, let's hear your ideas.
ReplyDeleteI just canceled the Journal-Times because I'm tied of reading this crap. It's terrible that our streets are no longer safe.
ReplyDeleteRACINE has cancer and the good doctors have all left town. Is it terminal? Only time will tell.
9:05
ReplyDeleteYou are wrong! We do not have any issues!! No Unemployment! The best schools ever in the world!! A booming Uptown! A booming Downtown!! Streets lined with Gold! Housing sales going up. Tons moving to Racine!! Things have never been better!!!!!!!!
Obama Doye and Dickert have done so much for Racine!!
Just ask the Mayor!!
9:05 - what good is it to cancel the JT's so you don't have to read about the crime in Racine and then you come to the Racine Post to read it - what an idiot.
ReplyDeleteThe Post is free and is not a hack for the City
ReplyDeleteAhhh John Dickert, Tom Friedel (city administrator) Mark Eichorst(PIO) Collectivly making 200k a year in salaries, are all telling you how great this city is and what a great job they are doing. It's not only a slap to all of Racine but an embarressment. No vision, No leadership, arrogance, deception and just plain disrespect will get this city nowhere. Make a change Racine, we need it
ReplyDeleteMark Eichorst(PIO) does even know how to use Facebook ads nor what other media outlets may exist then the JT (Few Read) and WRJN (IMHO the Station of the Dead) Can we get our money back?
ReplyDeleteYes folks, two of Racine's finest pieces of $hit get shot! Anyone think it might be drug related? Bonehead Dickert would say it was a random shooting.(people from Milwaukee) Why, because Racine is drug and crime free.
ReplyDeletedickert is soooo out of touch.
"Oh but there's no crime here, according to Lying John..."
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of lying...I am pretty sure Dikert has never claimed there was no crime in Racine.
I have the give the crazies on Racine Post credit...they can goad me into defending a guy I didn't vote for and don't really like.
