I'm not giving one damn nickel to any government employee collecting money at the gate.

The last time I paid money - at the landfill, the scoundrels were involved in a scam to embezzle it for themselves.

I noticed similiar activity at the Pork in the Park festival whereby government workers were collecting cash at the gate. NO OVERSIGHT WAS OBSERVED AT THIS POST EITHER.

My advise, hang on to your hip pocket folks. These type pick pockets are getting away with it.

I'm not going either.

Way to much political mischief associated with these people.

I'll stay at home. Better off for others because I'm sure there will be a lot of police presence.

I have been to Pork in the Park for 5 years and the Wine Festival for the past 3 years. Both events are very enjoyable and I plan on going again this year to the Wine Festival. If you two don't want to attend then don't. It will be more fun without your negative attitudes. And anon 3:50, if by these people you mean me as someone who attends, I say piss off!
