I don’t think it’s about the cheap part though, just some quality recycled clothes would do the job. Well you don’t have to always buy new expensive clothes to appear rich ;)

Thanks looking to grab Patagonia stuff there as buying it there probably would be cheaper than city.

Oh, the bare legs! Brrr. Most women didn't drive, thus that's who's walking? The men are in cars?

Reply to Thought on Slater Cotton Mill? by lovemybeaches143
I lived there for 2 years, starting in 2011. I was directly behind the leasing office. I would hear loud people at the elevator every once in a while, but nothing substantial. The only negative I really had for the place was when someone "broke into" my car. It was partially my fault since I accidentally left the doors unlocked.
I also lived at American Wire for a few years. For the most part I enjoyed it there. However, the walls are paper thin and god help you if your neighbors smoke in their apartment. They might as well be smoking in your place.

Just because they only list the things that may seem palatable does not mean this will not help the continued militarization of Atlanta's police department. Their website states "Our training includes..." not "this is an exhaustive list of what we will be doing here. You can disagree on whether this is a net loss for their community, but linking to the website does nothing.

Serious question, have you actually looked at the map of the planned facility and it’s intended buildings and purpose?
Edit: since I know you haven’t, here’s the site

As in an education, not practicing urban combat and counter insurgency.

Reply to comment by whatsaphoto in Unsure if anyone just saw it on Capitol TV, but Rep Quattrocchi just baselessly and flat out accused a woman presenting a bill (HB 5763, instituting an equity impact statement on future legislative bills) a pedophile on the floor. by whatsaphoto
I like to have some sort of proof before taking a strangers word on a serious accusation like this.
You seem to think I’m defending this rep, I’m not. Hell, I didn’t even vote for him (and he was on my ballot). But before I break out pitchforks and torches (hyperbole, but making phone calls and visiting offices isn’t off the table), I like to hear/see it from a reputable source.
While I think he was being a douchebag, it doesn’t read from the article as bad as you initially made it sound. Although, you might be right, the video might make it worse.

>"Oh, I didn't mean to. Are you a pedophile? I'm sorry," Quattrocchi, a Scituate Republican, asked Kislak, a Providence Democrat.
The article doesn't convey the timing of that quote as well. There was a long pause between "Are you a pedophile?" and "I'm sorry." Long enough to put a pretty significant emphasis on the accusation. Enough to get a rise out of the entire room.
Regardless, I got a feeling that even if I did have a clip of the moment for you, you would still find a way to misconstrue the obvious reality of the situation.

Please do, he was being an asshole. But he didn’t accuse her of being a pedophile as you stated in your post.

Thank you for posting something to it.
While he was throughly being a dick, he didn’t accuse her of being a pedophile as you stated in your post.

You want highly trained cops but when told you’ll get highly trained cops, you riot.
I don’t get it.

Surely you'll call this hearsay too, since it doesn't include a clip. Hope it's sufficient enough for you, though.

So Warwick is just balled hill road? Looks like you need to get out more. Providence is Ghetto just like Pawtucket, Woonsocket, Central Falls. When you drive in from Mass first thing you drive through you are like what the hell is this dump.

Seriously? Your answer is to put more parking garages and car spaces in downtown? Make it even less walkable and more dangerous for pedestrians?
That worked out really well for downtown Houston
