I think the right to be sensitive about this, there seems to be an onsl anti cop negativity. This officer has a thinner skin of ever seen. Im shocked and dismayed that shes patrolling the streets. What is it like for her of her feelings are hurt by a squiggly line on a pizza box. What is it when she deals with real crime. How are we to expect that she is doing her duty and not be police visit for her. But thats the officers integrity, wouldnt anybody be insulted given the cl theres a lot going on out there. I dont think ourrcent are necey getting the support they need or deserve in the community. I think theres a lot of people atter. That being said, i have a hard time believing that this Small Business would sabotage itself by writing something so inflammatory in the pizz liberals who love to talk about this my friend remembered that the police dont have this despite the tremendous risk they take. We should not jump to conclusions. But we should also have a little bit of sympathy for the men and women in blue. Would you feel the same way if they wrote it disparaging racist remark on box . If it were not obviously or racial disparaging remark, i would feel the same way. If it were obviously the nword, then i think people could choose not to go there. Is that fair . No safe space for cops, suck it up . Is kind of a pr disaster at this point. I think they should make lemonade out of lemons. Send some pizza to the police station,. What weve got here is a problem much bigger than garlic knots and whats written on the box. We have a situation where as mike articulated, some bigotry is more acceptable are able to be tolerated than others. We need to be get past that. All i was matters and everybody feeling should be taken into account. The police chief has opened an investigation into what . A pizza box christmas theres real crime here and there investigating this like its a criminal offense . This is getting a little bit more conservative than we first started. Lets treat them like they have extra power and authority in our country and should be expected to leverage that power and authority to do good in the communities, not to destroy business because of a misunderstanding. Thats wrong. What you think . Tweet the show at chasing news. The question is, the cops too sensitive or do they have a right to say how about a little respect, what you think . Were gonna switch gears and talk about what i think is a pending disaster in trenton. Trentons got at least 99 problems. And parking meters not one of them. Lets get some details from brian donahue. Nothing. No wonder the former mayor is sitting in West Virginia prison for accepting bribes from fbi informant imposing as parking garage developers. Its the equivalent of a stadium worth of state workers drives into town every day, park their cars and then leaves at the same time. You people making fake residential parking permits to park and city neighborhoods. Fraudulent handicap stickers are for rampant and adding the freeforall, these old coin operated dinosaurs. The city says the party of the chaos should soon be over. The city council is introduced to ordinances to set aside 1. 2 million for new parking meters in trenton to replace the 980 or so old coin meters. To those companies who wanted to bid they could have new computers chaos or new meters like you seen other cities. The days of doing this may soon be over. Your free parking . Go play monopoly.

First mothers day 1. 2 million and then put it at a bit and then it will be 1. 2 billion by the time its on. On top of that, its a matter of priority. Everything in this state is a revenue problem. What it is is a police problem. The new mayor didnt bake the cake or create these problem. But thats for his energy should be invested. If we had enough police this wouldnt be an issue. To pay the major when you go . I do. But i used to work across the street from the statehouse and clients would come in and say my parking meter went over we get a ticket. I said no because somebodys going step two blocks away. I would put a quarter in the meter and knocked it over into the street once i took a picture and said okay, if i get called on this i have evidence. At the risk of sounding like republican, isnt there private industry solution . Can we bring in a Publicprivate Partnership to bring a new meters at the companys cost and then they get it take . Is i would should be advocating for in trenton . Theres People Living on the streets and kids that dont get enough food. Its a disaster. And new jersey in does a horrible job in criminal justice. Theres a ton of reform that could happen. We can all agree on that. I think that would be better use of 1. 2 million check them parking meters.

Service can afford to charger iphones. Most of the sales are driven by tax breaks and subsidies. The question is, how much is too much . Do you think people in jersey, new york and across the country will stomach higher taxes to support new infrastructure . They might but theyll be crazy to continue to do it. The simple way of saying what mike illustrated his people dont want these yet. It could be a Great Technology and part of solution but im fine with that he might pay for.
