Two Cents

Thursday, September 27, 2007 9:48 AM EDT

Someone ought to teach those juvenile delinquents on Holley Street not to go trespassing into others' property just because they want to take a shortcut.
Way to go, Auburn, teamwork allowed observant citizens like us to catch a purse snatcher. With crimes like this riding around, if you don't lock your doors, you need to reconsider your security measures.

With college grads leaving our area because of a lack of professional jobs, why do we have retired guys like Quill who don't need the work snapping up those positions?

People, quit complaining, Auburn is a great place to live - if you're a drug dealer or a thug.

Dempsey has a bright political career in front of him, but this year is just not his time. If Dave makes the right choice for the city and not the choice his ego wants him to, then he will win my respect and in the future my vote.

The New York State Lottery is a scam. If the money was going to the schools, like it was supposed to be, we wouldn't be paying these outrageous school taxes every year.

J.P. Losman on Sunday injured himself, I guess, but he faked an injury most of the game, so he knew he didn't want to play against the New England Patriots. Come on, it's time for a change - Edwards did an excellent job.

" Pulling the race card, eh? Don't you think the owners have tried? Or are you the same kind of person who would nicely ask a bank robber to "please stop this"? Why should they give any respect to these kids when they have no respect for other's property? I should also mention (again) that I've seen the kids - all boys - and they are white AND black kids doing this! I'd like to see your reaction if you ever had to put up with this crap and worry day to day about the safety of your family and property. By the way, if you haven't already guessed, I wrote that Two Cents! I've explained to them that they will be killed by cars over and over again and all they do is laugh. They even look through our house windows. Since I'm a woman having to deal with these male DELIQUENTS, don't you think I'm worried about my own safety?? The owners behind us are very ticked off, and I'm sure that they have young children and want to protect them. "

" Thank you, brew1234...nature lover, got nothing better to do than sling arrows?!YOU get a life! What--you didn't quite expect the riposte you got from me last night huh, so you resort to bullying? Just like a closet Conservative! LOL! You know, I find it remarkable that mental midgets like you worry about what people do with their time, if it's not the same as YOU would spend it. It proves nothing except the fact that YOU are an unhappy person. Ditto that, for those of you that have painted a target on me for having an opinion and expressing it and at least being able to back it up with a modicum of intelligence and eloquence. Shows nothing about ME but says a lot about YOU! And just in case you care to know, I find it most amusing how EASY it is to wind you up like some spastic red-faced little dolls and send you frantically tottering across the keyboard. I think you hate that you can't get to me in the same way that I get to you. YOUR problem, not mine! I shall continue to annoy you by telling you EXACTLY what I think and exercising my First Amendment rights. Now go drink your milk before I sic the ACLU on you "

" From the sound of these posts I think the juvenile delinquents are on the Citizen's Two Cents forum tonight. And these complaint's sound very raciist. Treat these kids with respect and they will react much differently to you. They disrespect you because of your attitude and your looking down your nose at them. You will be a target as long as you paint a bulls eye on your butt! Karl gets his comments posted because he at least shows a bit of maturity and intellect. "

" Hey Nature lover, NEWS FLASH!!!! I have a right to MY two cents as much as anyone else, and I WILL continue to bore you, and play the devil's advocate and pi$$ off the Conservatives. If you don't like it, there are other newspaper blogs where you can go. I'm quite thick-skinned, and can take the attacks and guff I get here, so prattle on... "

" You have to realize that some people cannot put up a fence due to the shape of the property and the position of other objects such as trees. You also need to realize that these kids are trying hard to climb over and destroy obstructions in their way. I've seen these kids and they ARE delinquents - they laugh when they are being chased out, don't care that the owners have repeatedly told them that they'll get hit by a car, lie about their friends trespassing, and they are trespassing day AND night. How would you feel if someone keeps running past your window at night, trying to avoid the motion detector? Wouldn't you be scared and upset? Wouldn't you start worrying about your property being stolen, or that those kids would try to break in one day? "

" I "live in a bubble" mysikal?!? HA HA LOL!! I've traveled to place you've never even dreamed of in your wildest dreams, and seen half the world! That's why I have more perspective than you might or might not have. And if the kids are being disrespectful and thieving, then I'd be the FIRST to lean out the door and catch one of 'em and give 'em a good dressing-down! But I don't think you should be labeling them so harshly! They read this site too, and read the paper, and al that does is pi$$ them off and make 'em act out. Use some common sense! As for someone using my name, THAT's against Citizen policy, and smacks of Libel or Fraud! "

" Um actually, i happen to know that Holley Street IS turning into a ridiculous circus. My fiance's family lives there and 3 of their cars got broken into and so did their neighbors... kids will NOT move out of the way in the road when you're driving and then decide to give YOU a dirty look when you drive past them or become impatient. That's not how it should be am i correct? I'm pretty sure that people going into other peoples' yards unwanted is called trespassing and is a crime. am i wrong? I used to play in the street when i was a kid yet i had the decency to MOVE when a car came along and i wasn't out all hours of the night screaming obscenities just for the heck of it. So, I agree with you poster and Mystikal... as for karl L, i'm pretty sure you threw a grand ole hissy fit when you thought someone was taking your name on here- is that not an invasion of space? sorry but you have no room to criticize "

" Karl, I am the man and don't forget that. DD I did not do this as a kid, I respected other's property. First, I bet you don't live on or near Holley. Second, the only good place to live in Auburn is on the East-East side, the rest is all ghetto. Take a drive around Holley,Seminary,Nelson area and you will second guess driving there again late at night. Tweetyheart, Karl has no idea what he is talking about, he lives in a bubble and spends half his day on here. "

karl L wrote on Sep 27, 2007 3:42 PM:

" Geez, ya know, for all the B%$#&ing on this site about how incharitablre people are, you'd think we could start improving things by being more charitable to CHILDREN for cryin' out loud. Exactly as DD said--I wonder what she did as a kid? "

Leon Kapowski wrote on Sep 27, 2007 2:58 PM:

" I wouldn't call them juvenile delinquents, but they shouldn't be crossing someone else's property without permission, especially jumping a fence to do it. That *is* rude. "

DD wrote on Sep 27, 2007 1:45 PM:

" Mystikal, start complaining when something gets damaged. You probably did the same thing as a kid. "

tweetyheart49 wrote on Sep 27, 2007 1:32 PM:

" Respect of private property is definitely dwindling. Kids need role models who will teach them what is right and wrong. Karl, you don't mind when someone invades your space? Why be so rude to mystikal? Can't believe you get all your comments posted whether nasty or nice! Must be you have connections unlike the rest of us! "

karl L wrote on Sep 27, 2007 1:23 PM:

" mystikal...sigh...and you were just "hatched" as an adult, right? OK, I have a better idea then, MRS Grinch--put up a toll booth! WHo do you think YOU are?! "

mystikal wrote on Sep 27, 2007 12:28 PM:

" And yes, they are delinquent because they are.. yeah. "

mystikal wrote on Sep 27, 2007 12:27 PM:

" Karl, you don't even know what you are talking about so don't say random garbage like usual. They jump the fence in case you didn't know. They do it all the time and I find it very rude and irritating. Who do they think they are? "

" Kids are "juvenile delinquents" on Holley street because they take a short cut?!?! Oh-ho-ho man! So put a fence, Mr Grinch! "
