I mention John Robinson in one Post and the next thing I know I've got more ridiculous comments, racial comments, curse words and just flat out stupid childish junk flying on here like there's no tomorrow.
The SU Post I put up has also brought in ridiculous comments as well. If you can't stay on topic, if you use curse words, if you simply make a stupid and or racial comment, it's NOT going up.
In the mean time, if I see comments that aren't on topic and you're not John Robinson, don't get too ticked off because I deleted/rejected it. This is not a place for children. I've let the last ones through. Keep it decent or it's not going up and that goes for you too Crugly. Take the foul language somewhere else because it's not getting posted.

Breaking News!!!!!
Just got this from OC HMRA:
From the Town of OC Emergency Officials:
I just received a call from Buzzy Bayles in OC Emergency Services. A tractor trailer swerved to avoid a car who cut him off and the tractor trailer went over the eastbound Bay Bridge, taking out a small section of the railing. MD Dept of Transportation announced the Eastbound lanes will be closed today. Traffic will be only on the westbound portion of the Bay Bridge; 2 lanes westbound and 1 lane eastbound.
Please alert your guests. You may want to suggest they use Delaware routes to return home. Also, if time permits, please post a message on your marquee. Perhaps you could state:
Eastbound Bay Bridge closed today. Travel DE routes.

A SU Student Speaks Out About The Salisbury Police Department
Dear Joe,
First I'd like to thank you for spending so much time on Salisbury News. I
stumbled onto the site about 3 or 4 months ago and I read it regularly. The
Daily Times is on the same level as the school newspaper in terms of quality of
writing, reporting, and relevancy, and it costs money! So thank you for the
blog.
Anyway, I just wanted to share with you a couple of anecdotes about the SPD.
In my freshman year of college my friend got busted for pot. He had, oh, I
don't know, 1.5 grams left from an 1/8 (3.5 grams) he had bought a week prior.
I know this for an absolute fact. But when it got to the station it weighed in
at just under 5 grams and he was charged with intent to distribute. The SPD
lied on the report so that they could charge him with a worse crime. It's not
like he had any baggies, or even a scale.
In my sophomore year another friend of mine was unfortunate enough to get a DUI.
The police officer that busted him was kind enough to drive him to the station
and back at around 100 miles per hour. Now this is hear-say but I do believe my
friend, and what happened next I witnessed in person. The officer dropped my
friend off on Dogwood Avenue, proceeded to speed through the parking lot to turn
around, and then PEELED OUT and sped away. This was actually a young MD State
Police Officer and not SPD but it is all symptomatic of the same condition.
In my junior year two friends of mine had their houses illegally broken into by
the SPD where numerous SU students were maced, pepper bombed, and otherwise
assaulted (and I mean literally beaten and bloodied). One of these cases was
actually mentioned on your blog (Salisbury University Students Reach Out).
Guys, we're college students, we don't have weapons and while we may want to
avoid arrest, we aren't going to try to resist arrest in the face of an officer,
much less a SWAT team.
Now, I was reading on your blog about the murders this summer and I couldn't
help but think where I was on July 28th. I know I went to a small birthday
party around that time which got busted for loud noise. I left about an hour
afterwards, but the cops that busted us (3 police in 3 cars) were STILL HANGING
AROUND OUTSIDE. And I couldn't help but think that the police find out about a
murder or a rape about once a week (www.salisburypd.com), so what are these
three officers hoping to accomplish? Are they hoping to bust YET MORE COLLEGE
STUDENTS?
I tried to look up the crime statistics for the years before the current police
chief was appointed, and surprise surprise, they aren't available. But I would
be willing to bet that there is a negative correlation between the ratio of
pot/alcohol busts and real crimes. In other words, as more college students are
getting busted for cannabis and alcohol, more real criminals are committing more
real crimes. It's PATHETIC. The S.P.D. is a clown show and the chief is an
absolute joke. The Berwyn heights incident and the somerset county incident you
wrote on are proof that the police are out of control from the top-down.
I can think of a lot of other examples but these are one's that I know, first
hand, to be true.
Also, have you checked out the S.P.D. website? http://www.salisburypd.com/index.html
I have designed numerous websites from the ground up, and I can tell you that
it's a terribly amateurish, poorly designed site. It doesn't even say who
designed it but I'm sure they got paid, overpaid, with tax money.
One more thing before I sign off, Joe. You have said over and over again that
we need new blood to take power in WiCo. And I agree, but look at the S.P.D.
for example. Who would want to join a militant-hair-cut-wearing,
gun-wielding-for-penis-compensation, beating-up-college-kids, dog-shooting,
clown show such as the SPD? I fear that if anyone with a good heart actually
joined the force, they would be alienated and castigated for trying to change
anything or for standing up to any of the officers with seniority. And that
probably is true in politics, too. To change anything I think a lot of firing
and rehiring would have to take place from the bottom up.
Thank you for reading, and I hope some of this has been food for thought.

The Lovely Downtown Plaza
Do you recall all the way back to the Mike Dunn days when I was posting these pictures of the Downtown Plaza and Mike stated at a Council Meeting that they needed to do something about the residential trash being placed in trash cans on the Plaza?
Obviously their PLAN never worked because the trash cans are regularly overflowing and as usual, the Mayor has failed everyone on the Plaza and couldn't care less. It's time for a change in Salisbury and considering Bubba was the one agreeing with Mike Dunn, obviously he has no clue how to seriously complete a project and just states what the people want to hear and then drops the ball. And this guy wants to run for Mayor? Sounds like a lot of the same, if you ask me.
Single Vehicle Accident On Rt 50 West Backs Up Traffic
A single vehicle lost control heading west bound on Rt 50, hit an old telephone/utility poll and flipped several times. The two people inside were trapped while the Fire Department carefully got them out. One through the drivers window and the other through the rear window. Traffic backed up for miles on Rt. 50 as everyone seemed to want to stop and take a look at what was going on. The Wicomico County Sheriff's Department closed off one lane so emergency vehicles could get in and out of the scene.
Friday's Gas Prices
This was somewhat of a relief considering we filled up the Motor Coach and took a couple of days off. Sam's Club is kicking every one's tail, especially Gordy Marts. The lowest I've seen them is $3.71 on Friday at Nanticoke Rd. IMHO, I believe they continue to gouge everyone by reducing their prices far slower than anyone else.
Another SHA Bubba Spotting
The Bubba take home vehicle is once again parked in front of his home again this weekend. Your tax dollars hard at work. The big question is, will he retire from the SHA before he runs for Mayor? Or will he suck off the taxpayers and double dip?
What am I thinking, this Idiot would never win anyway.
