Funny, just had to sign this to chime-in here:
"You agree, through your use of this forum, that you will not post any material which is false, defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, adult material, or otherwise in violation of any International or United States Federal law."
The funny thing about this is all of the glaring inaccuracies about this issue that have been posted here. But I don't expect any of you to know anything since none of you are actually a decision-maker or member of any of the organizations and entities you are criticizing.
The wisdom of the room here would seem to be summarized as "hey, why can't everyone just leave us poor, trampled revelers alone and let FPD be whatever happens naturally. Boo Hoo."
Could we perhaps grow up a bit and recognize that stakeholders in this community have as much right to peaceful enjoyment of our homes, businesses, and public places as you do? I don't think that it is too much to ask not to have our homes broken into, passed out people on our porches vomiting, 20 gallons of litter on our lawns, and vicious assaults in our driveways. I have seen all of this on my property. No one has the right to do that for any reason, period.
If you put-out entitled brats think we "townies" are too big a problem for you to handle and don't like the outcry, then you people can get out of town with the rest of the idiots who come here from abroad to commit mayhem and go create your own community to destroy. In the meantime, I will advocate as much attention and force as necessary to ensure that actual stakeholders help us live up to being one of America's best midwestern communities. It's too bad your pride doesn't extend much beyond ignorance, vulgarity, drunkenness, and disrespect of anyone else who disagrees with you.
Flame away. I won't be reading or replying. Make yourselves feel good telling me how it is.
