Jackson Miller and Mr Colgan will be visiting Baldwin Elem. in Manassas City on Tues from 10 to 11. I am not exactly sure why, but I do welcome their visit. Thought you all might want to know.

Gone Fishing, did you bother to read the rest of her post?

“I will give Jackson my vote this year. After meeting and hearing from him I do feel that he is more qualfied for the job.”

Clearly she has spoken to him about the issues that matter to her and is voting for him.

Gone Fishing,

Did you read my post? If so, you would have read that MJM stated that in one of their articles a few months back. I have also linked this article that includes the police department releasing the same information.

MP Mom, you don’t want to vote for Jackson because he is
nice and friendly and takes the time out to pass out baloons to
the children…all this is true, but the reason to vote for Jackson
is because of his integrity, honesty and overall passion to work
for his people in Prince William County to the best of his ability.

I am glad to see this endorsement. I voted for Jeanette Rishell last year because she knocked on my door and seemed like such a nice person. This past year my son made the honor role at school and Jackson Miller sent him a very nice note congratulating him on his achievement.

I then had the opportunity to meet Jackson at the Fall Festival this year. He was just as pleasant as Jeanette, and I was so impressed that he would take the time to hand out balloons to the children here in Manassas Park.

I will give Jackson my vote this year. After meeting and hearing from him I do feel that he is more qualfied for the job. I just wish both of them will stop sending out the negative mail. Both of them seem so polite and above that type of negativity when you meet them in person.

COM, where are you getting your statistics that most robberies are done by blacks?

Peace,

While I will not condone this type of criminal behavior, the fact the Washington COMPOST does not consider illegals to have broken the law, you have to wonder why they have their pink panties all in an uproar over this. If they are consistent, they would be just as outraged over the fact illegals have broken the law, and continued to break the law by being here.

But it does set up an interesting PC battle, since most of the robberies are done by blacks(at least in PW County as reported by the MJM) I bet the COMPOST has a difficult time deciding how to cover the stories….. Highlight crimes committed by blacks, or highlight the minority victim?

Peace needs to understand that many of the perpetrators are Hispanic and probably illegal. I’m sure Maureen Wood can give you statistics. She mentioned them at citizen’s time. Of course, Peace, you probably do not live around here. If you want to experience the illegal alien invasion up close and personal, there are a couple of houses I know of where you can spend the night - that’s if you have the guts to do it.

Legal2, thanks for the info on viewing MJM on line, this will
save me some money and the pain of going out on rain
mornings!
I, too, have heard the news of the All Saints staph infection,
and yes, I believe it is true that the esol classes on Mon nights
are filled 100% by Latinos. We have to be careful here, because we shall certainly be deemed as “racist”, you know!

Peace, if they go home, the robberies will go down, and the legal latinos will not have to be so worried. Hey, illegal aliens, GO HOME!

GF - you can find MJM on line for free, if you must. Sometimes there are articles not (yet if at all) found in print.

Off topic - All Saints School added today as now having a case of the staph infection. Is it true that ALL schools so far affected have classrooms used by esol classes? Monday nights at ASS are completely filled by non-English speaking latinos.

Greg, I’ve been waiting for you to do a posting about this:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/10/25/AR2007102502740_pf.html

They coined a term for the assaults, one that reflected the uniformity of the victims they selected: “amigo shopping.” The teenagers recorded some of the attacks with a cellphone camera, saving one of the videos under the file name “amigo,” a source familiar with the case said.

(snip)

Hispanic immigrants are being targeted, often in gratuitously violent attacks by non-Hispanics, because they are thought to carry cash rather than use banks and to be reluctant to report crimes to police, the officials said.

(snip)

The attacks are occurring with such frequency that police in Prince William County have created a task force, and Montgomery police have assigned a specialized unit to tackle the problem. The crimes are having profound effects in the neighborhoods where they occur, causing some residents to alter their routines.

(snip)

When Negrete was killed, Prince William police had already noticed a spike in robberies of immigrants. The county’s crime rate in 2006 was the lowest in five years, but robberies were up 40 percent. Of the 351 reported, 83 percent were street robberies, many of which involved Latino victims.

That Miller was endorsed by the PN/MJM simply demonstrates what a whacko Rishell is. Sadly, it does not portend rational behavior by the squishes running those publications.

Help Jackson Miller by voting for Bob Fitzsimmonds because all those wonderful bills Miller introduced were killed by the Senate. By the way you can thank Colgan for that. Colgan just loves to kill Miller’s bills and he will continue to do so.

mike austin @2:03…you are absolutely correct, the JM did
get it right THIS time! What a wonderful endorsement of
Jackson.
Legal2, I don’t fault you for not renewing your subscription…
I’ve never subscribed, but manage to pick one up almost each
and every day (what a waste of $$) however, this is going to
change.
After the endorsement of Glendell Hill and the tiny, insignificant
reporting of the escaped convict, I should continue to read this
piece of trash every day, just for a laugh! Not even a mention
of the “missing in action” sheriff! Who is buying whom?
Seems it’s more important for JM to constantly be digging at
Corey Stewart than it is to report on something so serious as a prisoner escape in a highly populated area of our city and
so close to schools!

Go, Miller! But, I’m still not renewing my subscription.

Who said anything about liking the MJM? Pointing out they have common sense is not exactly a term associated with like.
