Through the years many citizens have gotten up to the podium to speak to the council. They have begged and pleaded with the council to stop the nonsense and do what is right for the city. They have begged and pleaded for public safety, fire personnel, public works. They have done this in a mannerly fashion until it was proven that being nice to Barrie and her council majority didn't pan out. What they got in return for their concerns about the city in which they live is retaliation, letters from councilmembers, violations and fines from the housing and/or code compliance offices. This does not encourage civility. Joe Albero tried being nice. In the beginning he took his concerns directly to the mayors office with hopes of having drainage from the zoo and the pollution of the Wicomico river stopped in a civil manner. Barrie, as always, assured him she'd take care of it, everything would be made right. Reality is Barrie completely disregarded a tax paying citizen of this city. Instead of capping off the pipes she tried to decapitate Albero, metaphorically speaking. Joe Albero realized being nice to this woman and her administration doesn't achieve results so he took his concerns public.
Enter Ryan Ewalt. While Ryan seems to be a very nice young man, Barrie has once again singled him out for grooming as the next generation of FOB's. Mr. Ewalt takes the time to become involved in the city, this is highly commendable and I for one appreciate his attempts to become civicly involved. However, the fact remains that Ryan Ewalt stand up and speaks at a council meeting and viola' Barrie sees the light, there is crime in the city. Who does this woman think she is kidding? We, that have been here while Ryan was off in North Carolina studying have done everything but stand on our heads and spit wooden nickles to get this woman to do something right, for a change. It just proves that Barrie doesn't hear anyone except who she wants to hear and who will best serve her purpose. Barrie hasn't heard the citizens or those in the council minority. A word from the wise Ryan, WATCH YOUR BACK with that woman and any of her cohorts. They'll chew you up and spit you out. Now that the lights are on Barrie decides its time to form a task force. Ummm Barrie, the Chamber of Commerce did that a few years ago and put together a report with statistics that you didn't want released. Remember that?
Of course, in the past 10 years there has been no crime in the city, until recently when a woman was shot on Booth Street. The perps must not have known the victim, by Shanies standards this constitutes a real crime. Then again, according to her lowness, Barrie Parsons Tilghman, there has been no crime in the city because her lowness was sure of being re-elected. Barrie is using this task force for no other reason than to convince people that she cares what is going on in the city that is, until after the election. You won't convince me otherwise, I've watched her games far to long. The hookers on Route 13 & Isabella didn't just appeared when Albero showed up with his camera, they've been there for years. In Barrieland there are no gangs, hookers, drugs, murders or crime of any sort.
MSP or WCSO might want to investigate what kind of drugs this woman is on, Timothy Leary or a pharmaceutical house, might have an interest in them. Although, I've heard the abuse of alcohol can cause delusions and hallucinations. Could it be that she is a pathological liar and believes the garbage she spews and thinks everyone else will? All the excuses in the world won't cover the truth of the matter. There is definitely crime, gangs, drugs, prostitution, etc, etc, etc in Salisbury. The highest ranking criminals are sitting right in the GOB. It all starts at the top with the mayor, her administration and the council majority. While Debbie Campbell and Terry Cohen take the time to do due diligence, comb through the budget, cut wasteful spending, that bunch works overtime at the destruction of this city. If you think I'm wrong, listen to audio of June 2, 2008 during a budget session. You decide who is fighting to put more police on the street, more fire and ems personnel in the Taj Mahal on Cypress Street and who is kissing Barries a$$. My question is how did these 3 blubbering idiots get as far in life as they have? Certainly it wasn't on brains. If I were a neurologist I would have declared them all brain dead and harvested their organs years ago. We've got a liar, an idiot and a lump sitting at the council table making decisions on how the taxpayers money is being spent while crime statistics increase in the 10th most dangerous city in America. Baffles the mind.
