[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I watched the public safety meeting this morning.  I haven't been a great fan of hers, but I think she asked some good questions.  On point.  Part of this is just that she's brand new.  [/quote]

I missed it, but am interested. What questions did she ask?

She is brand new. That’s why she should be visiting districts, doing ride-alongs, attending the citizen’s academy, and doing everything else possible to be informed about policing in the county. [/quote]

PP, do you have anything else to say, or just this one thing repeated at every opportunity?[/quote]

Is there a reason I shouldn’t bring this up? What’s wrong with wanting Mink to learn about public safety before she comments on it or tries to change it though legislation?

There’s only one correct response to this, and this is “yes, she should do her research.” Your annoyance at my point here makes me wonder if you actually can find some reason to disagree?[/quote]

You think she should do your particular version of "doing her research". In fact, I think you think everyone should do your particular version of "doing their research".[/quote]

Let me make sure I understand this. You don’t consider taking a close look at current policing a worthwhile endeavor? Mink is a county council person. One would logically assume she should get to know her own county’s services before commenting on them. You disagree? What would another type of research look like? [/quote]

You seem to be unaware that current practice in the county is to devise a preferred solution and then engineer the facts to support it. Planning, policing, transportation, and schools. The leaders come up with something they want to do and then make the data support it. [/quote]

It worked for Thrive, so why not try it for every initiative?  If the voters are gullible enough to believe that missing middle BS, they’ll buy anything.  When you’ve got that going for you, why try any harder?  It’s like shooting fish in a barrel.[/quote]
