Gathering Information for Probable Cause Against Your Neighbor

[cindi]

well, face it, the "long arm of the law" only reaches so far - IRS, heck, they are all knowing.

Anyone know why my "I Like To Eat Food" post was deleted?

'Cause I do. Still like to eat food that is.

Man...and I thought we could all find some common ground there.

Mighta been the "F" bomb.

I believe there were also some statutes that came out of the whole Linda Tripp/Monica Lewinski scandal. I cant remember if they were state of Maryland, or federal wiretap laws.

naw....stephen throws the "f" bomb hither and yon. he and zoo got into it on another thread, remember?

Maybe someone really hates eating food?

Or that we'd be comparing boarding home owners to them?

Oh I wasn't comparing one to the other, and especially not J & G,  they are state-licensed and make no effort to hide their business, I doubt there'd ever be any tax issues there. My interest is purely from a legal trivia standpoint. I think it's hilarious with these mob bosses who've killed people, looted state treasuries, etc., that the thing that finally brings them down is income tax evasion. Like death by a hangnail, compared to what they've done.

This is getting out of control.

STOP THE FOOD HATING!
I suppose they want to keep the nonsensical threads to a minimum? Sadly, the only ones I feel at home in.

I was going to let this go, but...

Chris Farley: When HSCC was in place every month there was a walk and information gathered against neighbors regarding what HSCC regarded as violations, I know because I got stuck with the record taking a couple of times - sometimes the police walked with us.  Also the police wish for photos of drug dealing  and PLEASE do not twist that into someone saying there is drug dealing in your rooming houses

No, but I will correct the reason these walks were done.  They were not to get the dirt on the neighbors as you have twisted this around to be.  They were to make the community safer and better by making a positive presence known on the streets. They were also known as police walks as the police, often the bike patrol accompanied us.  On these walks we talked about positive things and yes, occassionally noted something that was against the overlay or historic code and of course, illegal things as the police were with us, but the real purpose was not that information gathering.  And another thing, when we found an abandoned house open, we checked it out and made sure it got re-secured to protect it rather than had it put into the "system" so that it would eventually be torn down. These walks were pretty well attended and were a positive thing to do in a time when the streets were much "wilder" than they are today. Shame on you Chris for trying to justify what SPAR Council wants to do today by twisting around a positive thing HSCC did.

implying that SPAR Council came up with tape reocrding anything is a flat out lie. someone in the audience brought it up, and it was met with laughter.

sorry to burst your bubble.

as i stated in another thread, i'm taking a vacation from this general topic for a long while. discussion with the same handful of people over and over again on this same issue isn't fruitful.

It was also met with applause from a few as well….. Sorry to burst your bubble, but Michael Trautman was serious and so, many, including SPAR Council's Executive board, did indeed agree with him at least in practice. Anyone who really believes that there will not be cell phone video and affidavits if they believe it will further their “cause” is sadly mistaken.  Of course, I am sure at least two “supposed” illegal rooming houses will be exempt…they seem to rent to your clients…..

Porchcats can't see into anyone else's head (agreed), but somehow Strider can...

Let’s see:  information gathered against neighbors regarding what HSCC regarded as violations  and  by making a positive presence known on the streets are the same thing in your eyes?  Interesting…..

And no, if you quote the entire sentence:

It was also met with applause from a few as well….. Sorry to burst your bubble, but Michael Trautman was serious and so, many, including SPAR Council's Executive board, did indeed agree with him at least in practice.

You will see that I didn’t have to read their minds at all…..and as to Michael Trautman…it sure seems a few took his comments seriously and if you know him, it is certainly something he would do….or at least have someone else do…
