Re: Poll: Daniel Perry - Should he have been pardoned?
I agree that a government official (particularly one who is a lawyer) should be held to a very high standard. In contrast, Trump was a private citizen when these alleged offences occurred. I would say I've always found it strange that your mortgage lender and your county auditor don't have to agree...

Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse
As opposed to the donors buying the other candidate a Senate seat? It is not so much donors as the amount of pull she got from the “machine “. If you want to know, Trone was the more “progressive “ candidate. He was simply not part of the party’s preferred demographic. Trone would have been far eas...

Re: Poll: Daniel Perry - Should he have been pardoned?
Well, of all the convicted criminals in Texas do YOU think that Daniel Perry was most deserving of a pardon? Do you think he was wrongly convicted? Do you think he has shown remorse? Let’s talk about Marlyn Mosby? Do you think she was wrongly convicted? Has she shown remorse? https://www.washington...

Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse
Looks to me like he was actually trying use his liquor millions to buy himself a Senate seat and the voters weren't impressed. He dropped $61 million of his own money into the race: https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/05/09/maryland-senate-primary-trone-money/ As opposed to the donors buyi...

Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse
So this is the actual news reporting on the so-called civil rights complaint about the train tunnel: https://www.cbsnews.com/baltimore/news/baltimore-residents-file-civil-rights-complaint-against-amtraks-frederick-douglass-tunnel-program/ Anyone can file a compliant and the applicable agency is com...

Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse
A cash shakedown for a bored tunnel seems a bit ridiculous. I mean, technically I do own the mineral rights beneath me... but if they build a railroad tunnel underneath my property, I have a difficult time seeing how I'm being harmed. As far as exhaust goes, it can't be much different than the exha...

Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse
It is a driven tunnel,using a boring machine. It is the ventilation structures as well the “we were not consulted “ line, in spite of meetings that have gone on for a five year period. I heard Al Sharpton is involved, so it is almost certainly a shakedown for cash. And then we see the real reasons ...

Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse
Out of curiosity, do you have a link for that? All I've been able to find are articles about the lawsuit that the city of Baltimore is filing against the owners of the Dali. CORRECTION: There are groups pushing to not name the replacement bridge after Francis Scott Key, but I'm not seeing anything ...

Re: Francis Scott Key Bridge Collapse
Is there a reason that a train tunnel that goes UNDER people's communities is a problem? I would think it kind of depends on how it is constructed. If it is a shallow "cut and cover" type of tunnel then we are talking about perhaps half a decade of severe disruption of a community and lot...
