Gang members are hanging out openly on the corner of Mahoning Avenue and Steel Street.
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT THAT?
CAROL RIMEDIO RIGHETTI DID NOTHING ABOUT IT EXCEPT BLAME COMMISSIONER LUDT FOR NOT DOING ANYTHING.
Yet there by the grace of a poor criminal justice system, a poor performance by elected political hacks who pretend they care, and on and on, do these gang criminals continue to try to sell our children drugs, rob our homes, steal our cars.
So what are YOU - MIKE RAY - going to do about it?
John Swierz is not on the finance committee because, in my opinion, couldn't manage his own retirement finances and now relies on his council salary to make ends meet.
COUNCILWOMAN ANNIE GILLIAM Thank you for working for US!!

It seems to me he is more occupied with impressing his international puppetmasters than the Ohio voters.
Check out this song:
All wet hey you might need a raincoat Shakedown dreams walking in broad daylight Three hun-dred six-ty five de-grees Burning down the house
It was once upon a place sometimes I listen to myself Gonna come in first place People on their way to work baby what did you except Gonna burst into flame
My house S'out of the ordinary That's might Don't want to hurt nobody Some things sure can sweep me off my feet Burning down the house
No visible means of support and you have not seen nuthin' yet Everything's stuck together I don't know what you expect starring into the TV set Fighting fire with fire Burning down the house
"Look for drastic measures only when the next election year comes up."
Youngstown has never seriously faced its financial problems, it was always tax more and kick he can down the road for someone else to fix.
In the 5th Ward a candidate, Salata, PUBLICLY stated that he was donating 10% of his council salary to help senior citizens and crime victims, if he wins the election.
Salata, 5th ward candidate also PUBLICLY stated he would donate $5,000.00 to fund drug tests for people on assistance, if he wins the election.
Well, maybe the victim was screaming to have it her way, but hubby was not to have another moment of holding the pickles.
Hubby did this at a Burger King. Maybe if the wife drove and they both went to an Arthur Treachers, then maybe Hubby would feel like royalty with his fish n chips.
Parking proposal ‘is not dead’
What about the hammer to the screw job Jaminet received from the Elton John Concert?
Have those issues been taken care of?
The city should have paid Jaminet $20 x 400= $8,000.00 . Don't worry about my math - I'm on it.
How slow do these city council people have to move before they realize that they ARE THE PROBLEM?
These councilmen and councilwoman cannot keep the small business person happy, then how will they keep the big employers happy?

City schools are the answer
@ Tony Buzzacco, Springfield Township:
Why not ask Anthony "DO NOTHING" Catale and the now formerly employed Wendy Webb why the youngstown schools are so bad.
OUR CHILDREN HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO GET SCHOOLED HERE AND WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!
Mr Catale, just move out of town. You know you have talked about it, but like so many things, just haven't accomplished even moving out of town, yet.
Here's a couple of biggies from the Catale files:

@ R1200GS:
I respect your taste in music.
I wonder if Gov-K really cares about re-election.
It seems to me he is more occupied with impressing his international puppetmasters than the Ohio voters.
Check out this song:
All wet hey you might need a raincoat
Shakedown dreams walking in broad daylight
Three hun-dred six-ty five de-grees
Burning down the house
It was once upon a place sometimes I listen to myself
Gonna come in first place
People on their way to work baby what did you except
Gonna burst into flame
My house S'out of the ordinary
That's might Don't want to hurt nobody
Some things sure can sweep me off my feet
Burning down the house
No visible means of support and you have not seen nuthin' yet
Everything's stuck together
I don't know what you expect starring into the TV set
Fighting fire with fire

I say vote this Salata guy in and see what he does. I wish I was in his ward. He is trying things in a different way and using his own money to boot!
What are the other options to get someone on city council that can make a difference for our city? Too bad a republican can't win.

La. man charged after driving with wife’s body
Well, maybe the victim was screaming to have it her way, but hubby was not to have another moment of holding the pickles.
Hubby did this at a Burger King. Maybe if the wife drove and they both went to an Arthur Treachers, then maybe Hubby would feel like royalty with his fish n chips.
People are getting waaayyyyyyy outta control.
