Something like first offense, shut down for 6 months, second offense lose your business license but don't quote me on the penalties or if the fed's decided that was un-constitotionail , I just know the state is SERIOUS!!!!A story from a couple of years ago had families pulling kids out of school and packing up and moving out of state in the middle of the night.

I was cleaning out my wood box that's inside the house and I lifted up some folded cardboard and there was a frickin HUGE spider like the one shown here. It's legs were more reddish and after A LOT of research it did turn out to be a mouse spider. He's up in spider heaven now.

If that's her and she confesses I will show NO MERCY. And condolences to Nancy Schoeffler's family. May she rest in peace.

I dare all you cyclist haters to EDUCATE yourselves on the modern new laws regarding bicycles and the RIGHTS and RESPONSIBILITIES of all vehicles who use PUBLIC roads. Next, I challenge you haters to take a chair down to any busy intersection,sit in it on the sidewalk(don't worry you won't get hit by a cyclist because it's AGAINST the law to ride a bike on most sidewalks) and document the infractions committed by motorists and cyclists.

Stark, me riding a bike, wearing a helmet, you driving while texting in a green/darker mid sized sedan, suddenly decide you're turning right and drive right into me sending me crashing to the pavement . You briefly stopped until you saw a witness coming your way and you bolted: FELONY HIT AND RUN! You left me bleeding and injured you POS. I hope the guilt is eating you alive but you probably tell yourself it was somehow my fault. Sadder still of all the motorist's who witnessed this only one stopped, even though I was laying in the street. You know who you are turn yourself in.I really hope the latest victim can make a full recovery and ride his bike again.

Stark, in front of Mr. Plywood,noonish. Westbound. Me on a bicycle wearing a helmet and obeying traffic laws,you,a female driver, was texting while driving and came up alongside me,I looked over and saw what you were doing and you just kinda started making your right turn without looking because YOU WERE ON YOUR PHONE! You hit me with a right hook, I went over the bars and lay in the street injured and bleeding. You briefly stopped half a block away but when a witness tried to talk to you you sped off. The witness gave chase but you ran stop sign after stop sign through a neighborhood full of kids to escape facing your crime.FELONY HIT AND RUN. I recovered but my love of mankind fell several notches that day.You may not even believe you were at fault because, hey, you didn't see a thing even though you had to of seen me because you came up from behind me. I hope the victim in this latest and never-ending string of hit and run's can forgive and move on. Good luck and god's speed!

Would you still end their young misguided lives? Could you still live in the house with bloodstained memories? Would you just wound them?Would/could you have the presence of mind to be in control? Have you ever been attacked? Frickin armchair bada$$'s all a ya.

The devil is winning Fischer Broadcasting and it's just short of blood money. My heart truly goes out to those family's whose story's are sullied by this vulgar form of advertising. Have some respect and run them with less tragic stories.

To start:off leash dogs on Leif, off lease dogs on ALL fire roads,people jogging on the wrong side of the trail and NOT MOVING OVER, dogs that are on leashes but whose owners let it stretch across the road,joggers 4-6 abreast,dog crap on the road,idiots stretching/blocking the trail entrance ,etc. etc.Lawbreakers and persons who don't respect trail etiquette come in all forms.NWTA rules,rouge trail builders suck!

Also, how will their lawyer try to spin that they either didn't do it or c'mon, look at 'em give 'em a break, society was mean to them. They're really sorry. C'MONnnnnnnnn........

I'm a cyclist and I drive .So if I get bike insurance, which I agree would be a good thing,pay a registration fee, which I also agree is a good thing, oppose this Idaho Stop bill, it is a bad thing and stop at stop signs and red lights , which I do ALOT, would you all then give us cyclists the respect and courtesy afforded us by law ?And to the idiot here saying that if I follow all the laws there would be no problem. Following the law I've been hit twice by cars , both woman,one a hit and run yet I don't make blanket statements about how all drivers are lawbreakers.On my 42 mile ride today I witnessed all manner of violations by cars. Same as yesterday,And the day before. I drive, pay all necessary fees AND won't mind paying a second time if it will shut you up.

And notice that often times it says "File photo".That's why you see the same raging exposed fanged pitbull photo time and again.

Tell your friends and family to send emails as well asking for tow fee regulation. A huge tow bill could really put the financial hurt on a family that's already hurting.Thanks for the address secret ninja.
