Reply to State Senator stealing my land by Silly_Yak_3741
Whether or not the law is on your side, the reality is: you're the new guy and you're disrupting a long established neighborhood in a small town. Nobody is going to take kindly to that -- including the judge, the zoning board, the neighbors, and the town residents.
Even if you win, you're going to lose. Not to mention the small fortune you'll pay in legal fees trying to fight this.

Poor strategy, IMO, but good luck.

When you are seeking the lowest priced apartments in RI, you're going to end up in a shitty crime-ridden area.
I'd suggest doing whatever you can to increase your housing budget so that you can be in a safe area.

You are apparently new to the area. Don't ever expect right of way as a pedestrian. Drivers don't pay attention to crosswalks. You need to just wait until no cars are around to cross the street. And don't worry about jaywalking here. Cross the street anywhere you want.

>why is anyone downvoting this?
Because there are some pretty miserable people here. They see someone who appears to be enjoying life and it upsets them. So they downvote and I guess it gives them some satisfaction.

We're talking about a one mile stretch of Hope Street. What would the people on bikes do before they get to the beginning of the bike path? What would they do when they reach the end? I'll tell you what they'd do: they'd manage just fine. And they'll manage just fine without that one mile stretch.
But it's all irrelevant at this point. This was just a temporary test. That bike path won't be back. Sensible people won't let it happen.

>Sorry, a bike path that will...destroy local businesses? You mean having a convenient, healthy, and easy way for more people to travel through areas with lots of businesses is detrimental towards said local businesses? What a joke.
I mean LOSING 132 PARKING SPACES near the local businesses. You know, the part that you conveniently left out.

People can ride bikes without a bike path that will destroy local businesses.
Are you aware that 4 people stabbed a homeless man in Kennedy Plaza last night? And do you know why they stabbed him? Because the homeless man refused to let them take his Sour Patch Kids candy.
There are real issues in this city. Not having a bike path on Hope Street isn't one of them.

The bike path cheerleaders on here are out of control.

RISD is a prestigious school. Why would they listen to the students who support a mascot like this? It reflects poorly on the school.

Personally, I'm with RISD on this. It's not creative and it's vulgar.

Tinder is mostly a hookup site. The dude will probably be expecting more than making out at waterfire.

I agree that people shouldn't go out when they're sick, but the reality is they do and they will continue to. I'd suggest getting a different job because this won't change.
