As for me... I have several large pit bulls and other nice surprises if someone wants to try to take what isn't theirs from me... It sucks that the average person works hard to buy their tv, computer, and other nice things...and then some piece of trash just walks into their home and takes it...WTF!!! How about they go get a job and work for it like the rest of us!

Is this a halfway house for pedophiles? I thought it was for drug users. If that's the case, then let's call it like it is...there are a number of drug addicts that come from these larger towns such as Bridgeport, New Haven and Hartford. So, having a 1/2 way house near their family makes sense so that they can have some sort of a support system. And, if you really want to call it what it is, then how about if the states really do something to get these people OFF the drugs rather than simply addicting them to something else! Put them someplace where they can De-tox, get them clean/sober and give them counseling. It is a combination of therapies will help to un-addict the drug addicts. But, let's face it, it will never happen b/c drugs are a big $$ business and too many people would lose $ if people stopped doing drugs...

Even if this woman was able to get out of her condo, where is she going to go??? In the street??? So she can cause an accident? I have been laid up all winter, too. Had to have surgery Dec 1st, with a ton of metal put into my ankle (crushed it in an accident) and I understand her frustration with cabin fever. BUT, where are her family and friends? As for whining about the weather, this IS New England. You either deal with the snow and ice, or move South! This has been a very harsh winter for ALL of us. She is not the only 1. This world is so full of whiners it makes me sick! And, she's probably in that scooter b/c she weighs 1000 lbs. Maybe she should try walking and losing some of the blubber keeping her in that scooter!

Maybe one day the USA will quit minding everyone elses business and just worry about its own!

They drag this case out for umpteen years and the best Defense they can throw out there is: "he didn't go into the storeintending to kill anyone". Really??? Was he there to shop for a nice gift for his mommy? These lawyers are as bad as the garbage they represent! We need to bring back Public Flogging! People like this get hooked on drugs (their own choosing) and then expect to be excused for any and all bad behavior because it isn't their fault that they are addicted??? Boo, freakin hoo! Give me a break! When will people begin to stand up and take responsibility for THEIR deeds??? That's the problem with people today...it's never their fault, it's everyone elses!

What is the big deal if she took her kid and went away for a few days? She might have been with friends. Does she have a court order barring her from taking her baby anywhere? If not, then why did this story even make the news? Outside of the fact that the 25 year old mom was inconsiderate in not letting her family know she was going to be away, what is the big deal? And at last look, inconsideration is not a crime in this state...if it was, our jails would be overflowing!

This is a matter of a few weeks apart...then, there's a very lengthy lapse until Aug. 20, 2009; a lapse of, hmmmm... 18 months (1 1/2 yrs people) then again 9 months later on July 11, 2010; and finally, Jan. 17 of this year...a lapse of 6 months. Now, I'm no CSI, but my guess is we are looking at someone who is already well acquainted with the prison system, and was more than likely sitting in a cell somewhere, during those lapses... So much for rehabilitation...

But, what pisses me off t is that now, this Father...who had Sh*t for judgement, is trying to throw the blame on an INNOCENT man. Yes, I'm sure the father is grieving at the loss of his son (again, had he shown an ounce of brain power, the son would still be alive...and if that were MY husband who had done this, I would be in divorce court with his stupid butt, right now!) An INNOCENT man is being held accountable for the IRRESPONSIBLE actions of the father aka Legal Guardian...who ALLOWED his son to use this gun. If this father wanted to do right by the world, he would stand up in that Courtroom and tell the Judge that the only person who should slapped is HIM! Not the organizer of that event. THAT is my point. And, BTW, I have 5 children...and have I ever used bad judgement??? NO! Because I have always thought things through to the end...picturing every outcome that could, or might happen.

WTF??? Thu, 6 Jan 2011 20:48:54 +0000 http://www.wtnh.com/dpp/news/crime/clinton-man-arrest-for-assaulting-child#IDComment119895626 http://www.wtnh.com/dpp/news/connecticut/father-takes-stand-in-uzi-death-trial-#IDComment119894709 And, here's a question.... What if that 8 yr old hadn't killed himself...what if he had fired into the crowd and killed one or more innocent event attenders? Then what? Who would have been responsible then? Hmmmm.... Thu, 6 Jan 2011 20:42:19 +0000 http://www.wtnh.com/dpp/news/connecticut/father-takes-stand-in-uzi-death-trial-#IDComment119894709 http://www.wtnh.com/dpp/news/connecticut/father-takes-stand-in-uzi-death-trial-#IDComment119894392 Absolutely, he sure as heckk should be! Yet, here is the father taking the stand against the man who helped organize this event? No one forced this idiot to go, nor did anyone force him to bring his 2 little boys. And, the former Chief did NOT force that gun on those boys! The father gave it to them. The 11 yr old was given it first, then the 8 yr old. The father should be held accountable! It is disgraceful to the memory of that little boy to not hold the father responsible! That's the problem with this country and with our judicial system...the right people are not being nailed! Thu, 6 Jan 2011 20:40:04 +0000 http://www.wtnh.com/dpp/news/connecticut/father-takes-stand-in-uzi-death-trial-#IDComment119894392 http://www.wtnh.com/dpp/news/crime/testimony-resumes-in-mass.-uzi-death-trial#IDComment119893675 The only person who is responsible in the death of this child is his own FATHER! He allowed his 11 year old son to handle/shoot it and then gave it to his 8 year old son! NEITHER of those boys should have been allowed to hold that weapon! Why is it that no one wants to point the finger at the rightful person whom it should be pointed at? The father is a Dr??? The family friend is a Nurse? Wouldn't one think these people capable of having an intelligent brain and realizing that MINORS should not "play" with guns? It is a tragedy that this boy is dead, but it is his father's fault! Why isn't the father stepping up and taking the blame for this? Thu, 6 Jan 2011 20:34:36 +0000 http://www.wtnh.com/dpp/news/crime/testimony-resumes-in-mass.-uzi-death-trial#IDComment119893675 http://www.wtnh.com/dpp/news/fairfield_cty/bridgeport-officer-injured-in-fall-during-chase#IDComment119873070 It amazes me how many people will sit here and talk smack about this Officer, who was injured in the LINE OF DUTY! Obvioiusly these people should hope that the day never comes when they need the Police to help them! And maybe these people should try being productive members of society instead of the wasted human flesh that they are!

All our ancestors came from another country and did not speak English when they got here! It is 2010, not 1810! It's time to let all decent people live in peace!

If he was able to dish it out, then that is the just/fair punishment that he should receive in return! If it was good enough for his victems, it's damn good enough for him! There is too much lawlessness in this country. We have taken to coddling murderers, and it did NOT cure/heal them! In fact, we continued to let them out on the innocent public. We put down rabid animals... so be it with rabid humans!

That is the topic! And the question is "should he be given the death penalty?" Furthermore, on this mornings news program, the statements were made that (boo hoo) this animal had a bad childhood, an absent father... and I'm guessing he wet his bed until he was 12, got picked on at school, etc, etc, etc. Are they serious??? They want us to feel sad/bad for this disgusting excuse of a human being b/c he had a lousy childhood? But, even more so, we are supposed to excuse his horrific behavior b/c of it?? WTF has this world come to? Need we remind Mr. Hayes, and the rest of the world, of the fact that he tied 2 little girls to their beds raped and set them ablaze??? Can anyone of us even begin to imagine the terror and fear that those little girls lived in and then died in?

It is b/c he is black that we must all walk upon egg shells. If he had been white, he would be in jail right now! What a lovely politically correct corner you have all painted yourselves into. Good luck getting out of it. It will only get worse until average citizens stand up for themselves.

He NOT only broke one law...he broke numerous laws. He should be fired and put in jail and any money he is making, right now, at that animal shelter... should be given to the girl he hit to help pay her medical bills. Seriously, Gina... are you insane? Or just stupid... People make choices every day. And in ANY given situation we will NEVER have less than 2 choices. He CHOSE to break the law that he, himself, swore to uphold. (do you get the irony of that yet?) And in so choosing, he hurt an innocent. If it had been your child that was hurt, I'm sure you would be singing a totally different tune...
