Dave,
You’re probably right about Barron, but it IS his district.
FWIW if Walmart does open there most of the customers will probably drive there from Queens. It’s close to the belt parkway, but not really near any part of East New York where large numbers of people live.
Bob…it was not Baron who I saw on TV who said it was his district and his constituency wanted it.
Baron is most likely against anything that run by a business larger than a bodega and might have predominantly white management.
I don’t think that residents or city council members should get to decide on specific companies that open in their district.
The city should have one set of laws that applies to all businesses.
If you don’t like what Walmart does, then pass laws regulating those actions and make them apply to everyone.
Ditto;
Get with the program. Only whites can be racist. How long have you been in New York, and you still haven’t figured that out?
Perhaps I’ve judged Walmart too harshly if that out & out racist lunatic is against them
Coincilman or Councilman, Charles Barron is the representative of the area where Walmart might locate and he’s come out AGAINST it. DIBS; you’ve previously claimed that the relevant councilman supports Walmart and I’ve pointed out your error. Why continue this misstatement? It’s not like you.
> “coincilman?”
I was hoping that was intentional, a commentary on bribery in politics.
okay all those things in that trailer park sound kinda fun… but it’s pretty obvious all these people have money or else they wouldnt be able to have all those things in their trailer park. barf. just more moonfaces mocking the poor and being phoney
*rob*
Condo board: just like Junior High, except with lawyers.
