'The Commuters Deserve to be Treated Fairly'

A look at the day's comments from Patch account holders in the region.

"Seriously? Show me one candidate that hasn't accepted money from Hedge Funds and Wall Street...and then I'll vote for them. NO ONE is truly out for the Middle Class...but they'll sure miss us when we're gone." —

"I just told my husband that if I have to walk 1/4 mile to the train station every day (in rain and snow and heat, etc.) I will retire before that happens. Work on fixing the structure that is there for all of us. The commuters deserve to be treated fairly." —

"That's a pretty expensive iPhone..." —

"Hopefully when the trees come down, the owners of those hideous looking buildings will renovate them. Along with the Post Office building, the store fronts along that stretch are some of the ugliest looking buildings in all of New Canaan, if not Fairfield County. They look like relics from the 50"s An absolute disgrace to the town." —

"where are all the obama loving tree-huggers????" —-

"He is lucky there were tasters...he otherwise would have gotten shot for this stunt!!" —

"So you can shoot someone for being naked in your house, but if someone tries to run you over and punches you you can't throw a cell phone at them? Is there any difference between hitting someone with a car and hitting someone with a cell phone? (Note to self -- leave the cell phone in pocket, use a car -- it's more efficient and the penalty is the same.)" —  

"Shouldn't the big story here be 'Woman trys to run over boyfriend with her car'?" —

Why is it the panel for this event does not include a single advocate for gun-owners' rights? WithRead More all due respect to Chief McNamara, why does the panel no include a person who can speak to gun safety from a gun-owning civilian's perspective? ML, you claim that the assembled folks "do not offer judgements about gun ownership" but they are not including a single voice that can offer perspective on gun ownership. I have been to "education" sessions sponsored by Meg's March for Change and they are one-sided indoctrinations into gun control advocacy. >>>> I was in Hartford for the public hearings in January when both Meg and March co-founder Nancy gave their personal testimonies and they all but threatened the legislators on the panel with election day retribution for all those who did not tow the gun-control line of thinking (i.e. March and CAGV). To suggest that Meg "does not offer judgements" is fallacious and disingenuous.
