This was so outrageous that I thought I had to get the word out there. My bad if this rubs anybody the wrong way; but I did post it in the off-topic section.

This will be interesting to follow, to see what happens when the town has elections again....

BTW, what part of the SW are you in?

I think he's right, but I support your right to outrage.

BTW, what part of the SW are you in?That would be Arizona; where I would have to say weather is mostly boring (which is quite alright by me).


I think he's right, but I support your right to outrage.True, he is legally correct; but that doesn't make it right. Each to their own I guess; everybody has to deal with their own demons at night. But to mess with people who lost everything; that's pretty low in my book. Regardless, it was a pretty interesting article which does show different sides of human nature.

There are other ways to "help" people without turning your town into a trailer park.
Temporary "fixes" have a nasty permanence to them.
