The following is a statement from Ocean City Mayor Rick Meehan (9-29-19)

"What took place this past weekend in Ocean City can never happen again. This group came to town with the sole purpose to raise havoc in our community, to disrupt our lives and defy law enforcement. They placed our town, as well as our citizens and visitors. under siege and in danger which is unacceptable under any circumstances. Our town government, citizens, property owners and businesses must join together as one voice to take whatever action is necessary to stop this group from returning. This isn’t about just one weekend this is about our future.

I cannot say enough about the men and women of the Ocean City Police Department, the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office, the Maryland State Police, Maryland Natural Resources Police, Maryland Transportation Police and the other allied agencies that were here this weekend. They went far beyond the call of duty in their attempts to enforce the law and to protect our community while at the same time placing themselves in harm’s way.

The Mayor and City Council must immediately begin working with Police Chief Buzzuro, City Manager Doug Miller and State Agencies to put a plan in place to stop this ciaos. All potential actions should be considered. This includes, but should not be limited to, declaring a State of Emergency. I plan to speak with the Governor this week to discuss this in detail and ask for his assistance.

We cannot let what happened in Ocean City this weekend define us as a community. This must stop and it must stop now."

Wicomico County Executive Bob Culver: Folk Festival Alcohol License Press Conference. (9-22-19)

 

Salisbury Folk Festival An Obvious Flop, AGAIN (9-15-19)

These images taken yesterday at 3 PM clearly prove, (once again) that no one is really interested in this ridiculous Folk Festival in Salisbury. I cracked up this morning watching WBOC showing footage of the event claiming large crowds were flocking to the event, yet every video image showed next to no one there. Power of suggestion???

Progressive Jake Day is a big spender of other people's money (8-18-19)

Hi Everyone,

I have a way to get money for the homeless and give a raise to our police and hire more police in the City of Salisbury. Get out your calculators:

Let's pretend Salisbury is a biking community. Here's a rhetorical question, what % of the population makes us a biking community, our population is about 33,000 people? I was told there were hundreds of people in the bike club, not thousands (I don't believe it anyway). But let's just say, for arguments sake, we have 900 bikers in this community. That is 2.37% of the total population. The council just approved ANOTHER 3.3 million dollars to be spent on the biking community (I was there and witnessed this expenditure). With just those numbers alone, we are spending $3666 per biker. (To bring this into perspective, we have about 900 homeless in the Salisbury area). Now let's talk some real numbers. If we have 300 bicyclists in our community and we spent 8 million dollars (which is much closer to the real number) on bike lanes, which includes widening roads, etc... We are spending 26,666.67 dollars per biker. I am not including the bike races we have here where thousands of bikers from all over come into Salisbury to compete. If we did not spend money on bicyclists we would have 8,889 dollars we could spend on each homeless individual (based on a 900 person homeless population). If we cut that money in half we would have enough money to give raises to our police force, be able to hire more police, and help the homeless. Put a calculator on it.

In short; this guy is a typical progressive liberal that has no idea how to prioritize our tax money.

BTW, we need a conservative Salisbury resident to run against Muir Boda. He is not a republican and he told me, to my face, that he is voting for Jake Day for mayor. He also said if I want the FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) on last years Folk Festival that I have to call the National Folk Festival to find out how our tax money was spent. He also said that no one in City Hall knew about the killing of the geese. He suggested at first they can't control the Fed and they just decided to kill them... then he changed his mind. He said a Salisbury resident must have called the USDA and complained about the geese and that's why they came down and killed them. He said that Jake and no one on the council knew anything about the geese murders until someone called and complained.

I asked him about the 13 story high rise and where people were going to park. He said that they are building a bridge from the high rise to the parking garage and they can park on the 3rd floor. I asked him how many parking spaces are up there, he said he did not know. Well, the county rents that 3rd floor parking anyway, so the answer is really zero.

Then I asked him how about the large parking lot across from where the high rise is going up (it is behind the courthouse on Rt. 13 and holds over 250 cars.) He said he can't tell me because it was discussed in a private session of the council and I was not privy to that information because the lot is being sold. I asked him who was buying the parking lot across from where the high rise is going up. Again, he said he can't tell me. That is our land people, we should know. No transparency.

Then I asked him why we are spending millions of dollars on bike lanes when we are not a bike community. He agreed we were not a bike community yet, but we will be. So I said, "so we are going to force people to ride bikes, like a 300lb man?". On rainy days when people do want to drive, there will be no parking. Aren't we going to need parking if the downtown is actually revitalized?

I also asked him why our roads and sidewalks weren't being fixed. He said 25 of the construction people were fired... not sure, but I think he said the county did it.

I never saw a person say so many lies in such a short amount of time in my life. And guess who is feeding him these lies.

Anyway, I packed my stuff up and said I will never come to another Republican Club meeting as long as I see Muir's face there. He's a mole and a liar. And I have been told he is the vice-president of the republican committee. HOLY CRAP!!!! No wonder Republicans can't get anything done in this city.

I am here to clean this crap up, and if you elect me, one of the first things I am going to do is bring a private CPA Auditing Firm in to Audit our City. Haven't the people of Salisbury had enough of the lies, corruption and deception.

Yours Truly,
Wayne King
Candidate for Mayor of the City of Salisbury

A Viewer Writes....Mayor's Bike Lane Causes Confusion & Back Ups by PRMC (8-11-19)

Picture taken at 2:45 pm Tuesday, 8/6/2019.  - These cars just missed the green light onto Carroll Street and immediately created this back-up on Waverly Drive for the Mayor's Bike Lane.  Each direction on Waverly Drive is now and forever a single lane.   This back-up/bike lane will easily block the entrance into the Emergency Room at PRMC and imagine what the back up will be at 5PM or when schools let out.

Posted 8/5/19  on Facebook by a PRMC physician:

Does the City of Salisbury plan on distributing a printed list of instructions detailing what to do if one finds himself in the unfortunate circumstance of traveling north on Waverly Drive? That paint job appears to be a drug-induced collaboration between Rube Goldberg and Pablo Picasso. If anyone finds me stopped in the middle of the street sobbing on my steering wheel, please help me out of the car and escort me safely to the curb.

COMMENTS:

Be careful what you ask for; you may be inviting vehicular euthanasia...; )

I saw someone weaving through cones last week.

It’s just stupid!

As a cyclist, I understand and appreciate what they were TRYING to do. It just seems like the execution is lacking. Maybe there's more paint to come which will clarify it all.

I agree but what I can’t understand is that cars have an inside leasing lane now... and we know that’s outside of being intelligent

I thought the same thing! Crazy

Jacob Day gave a full explanation on someone else's wall.  All will work out. Stay safe

I guess one has to be a Facebook friend of that person to see what's on his wall. I guess I'll just have to be patient and not kill any pedestrians in the meantime.

I was JUST talking about that crazy paint job! What in the world!?!?

Love Jacob Day.. but the execution of good thinking wasn’t carried out.

Jacob Day responds:   Wrong. Politicians don’t engineer streets. And the engineers did a fine job following the law. The construction isn’t complete.

I know that! It wasn’t an attack at all... u know me better than that!! I would do a public thing with that... I just think it’s crazy

Sounds like we need more patience, grasshopper.

I have none.

Jacob Day responds:   oh ok I got tagged so it seemed directed at me. I know we’re cool! My point is it isn’t a crazy or confusing design, it’s just not complete. That said, when complete, it will be a design that forces cars to slow down.

Separate argument ... crazy that we need to tell people to slow down.... in a residential area..... these people are stupid

it is a shame. But I will say this, while people should take responsibility for their speed, when a street is safe to move down at 25 mph but is designed to signal to drivers that it should be maneuvered at 50 mph, whose fault is it when they drive 50 mph? We can design streets to be safer. Yes, it will slow us down and people will be aggravated... but it will save lives.

It’s not complete. This is stage 1.

Jacob Day responds:  It’s in the middle of construction. When the contractor is done it will be crystal clear: it’s a standard 2-lane street, removing the old weaving pattern and compliant with the new State Vision Zero Law. The bike lanes (temporarily stripe-separated) will he separated with physical barriers.

Mayor Day, thanks for coming on here and putting us all at ease! What's the timeline for completion?

Jacob Day responds:  I’m not, sure since the contractors are not bound to complete projects within days. That said, our team will step in tomorrow if they aren’t done and will drop more cones in the interim until complete. The work that remains, I believe, includes all of the thermoplastic lane indicators, the final striping near Carroll, the vertical signage, the zebra barriers that go on top of the diagonal striping to keep cars out of the bike lanes and the vertical barriers to keep cars from turning into the bike lanes accidentally. I’ll share examples of those images in a second.

Jacob Day responds:  And the zebra/zicla barriers are intended to be temporary here as the striped area will eventually be replaced with curbed, planted medians.

I use Waverly multiple times a day, but since this started I am using Rt. 13 more. Seems it will work when finished, but right now I feel every one is confused and I am taking an alternate route.

Yup. I kept swerving back and forth between the “sections” bc I couldn’t figure out where I was supposed to be. I know the people behind me had to think I was drunk.

I slowed down to 10 MPH.. Not sure if this was the best thing to do!

Salisbury Mayor Jake Day's Lying, Dirty Tactics (8-4-19)

Hi All,

I would like to apologize to my real followers about my Facebook News feed being flooded yesterday by Jake Day's cronies. Pagano, KT, Pope, Campbell, and more. Also, some are literally creating fake profiles and trying to infiltrate this FB page. Last night, his friend GREG MAC was using an alias "Scott Wayne" to try to get dirt on me directly through messenger. Jake is so concerned about my candidacy he is using these tactics to try to corrupt my followers. If you notice, they are accusing me of saying things I did not say and putting words in my mouth. To combat these remarks all you have to do is go to my website and read my platform.

I promise I will run a campaign based on my POLICIES. Jake is concerned his policies will not get him re-elected so he is trying dirty tactics. He is trying to to get me to say something stupid.

Like I said, just go to my website and read my platform if you want to know what my policies are: www.wkformayor.com

Regards,

I'm Sick And Tired Of The Walmart Check Out People (7-28-19)

 
Editor's note: This is not my video. This is of another person that had an issue with them checking the receipt.


Like most people, I hate shopping. I'm am an in and out kind of person. I know what I want, I go directly to those products and I'm out of there.

Yesterday I went to purchase items at Walmart in Salisbury, (North) and as I was leaving I was stopped and a person demanded I give up my receipt. I had just paid CASH for MY items, (no longer theirs) and I was detained and forced to give up my receipt. At this point they started checking every single item in my cart. 

I am not only an extremely busy person, I don't have time for this crap and quite frankly I am NOT A THIEF. Of course every item in my cart was accounted for on my receipt.

I can assure you, the next time this happens there will be the biggest scene Walmart has ever seen and I recommend to every one of you do the same. What they are doing is illegal, they cannot detain us like this. The guy in Salisbury was a complete jackass and had no respect for my rights. Hopefully someone at the north Walmart sees this article and goes back to their footage from yesterday around 8:30 AM and watch me argue with this person. Walmart has no right whatsoever to do this to people and if it happens to me again I'm going to file a lawsuit, I'm done with this crap.

Mayor Jake Day Kills Off 400 Canada Geese In The City of Salisbury Maryland (7-14-19)

Hundreds of geese euthanized in Salisbury, meat goes to local shelters

Some leave constellations of droppings along the river, others down fairways, while others are watched happily as they graze.

But hundreds fewer geese are going to be seen waddling around Salisbury for the time being.

Kevin Sullivan of the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Wildlife Services confirmed his team humanely euthanized 362 resident Canada geese two weeks ago, brought in by request of the city of Salisbury to manage "an excessive population."

"The city of Salisbury reached out to USDA Wildlife Services to see how they might manage an over-population of Canada geese throughout the city, leaving droppings and over-grazing, habitat damage (and) polluting waters," said Sullivan, director for Maryland, Delaware and Washington D.C.

The Maryland Department of Natural Resources conducts an annual waterfowl survey, and the estimated Canada goose population decreased by about 61% from 2018 to 2019 — resting at about 250,200 state-wide as of February estimates.

No estimates from Salisbury could be provided.

Where else would you spend 2.7 Million on a Bicycle Master Plan and 4.7 Million on an "Urban Greenway"!

Who knew we needed all this!!
Jake must be anticipating a lot of future poverty where no one can afford a car, especially with our "city" rents @ 1200+ for a 2 bedroom "luxury" apartment!

We already have the throw away pay for a bike ride program! Now all we need is to dedicate and reconfigure our narrow streets to accommodate the flood of all those rentabikes. Our new population of poor but healthy people!

Uber will be a thing of the past.
Get your rickshaw polished up and ready!
Dust off your walkin shoes.
Because all those new employers will be jumping at the chance to build here knowing we have a 4.7 million dollar urban greenway but barely passable potholed streets! What an attraction! Visitors will be flocking from near and far just to see it!

WCSO Press Release 6-4-19 (Fleeing and Eluding Incident) Drowning (6-9-19)

Incident: Fleeing and Eluding Incident

Date of Incident: 4 June 2019

Location: 100 block of East Carroll Street, Salisbury, MD

Suspect: Jakeem K. Jackson, 19, Salisbury, MD

Narrative: On 4 June 2019 at 2:08 AM, a deputy on patrol in Salisbury attempted to stop a vehicle that would later be found to be operated by Jakeem Jackson, after the deputy observed that Jackson had failed to dim his hi-beam headlights for oncoming traffic. Jackson pulled into a parking lot in the 100 block of Carroll Street, but instead of staying with the vehicle he began running from the scene. The deputy began chasing Mr. Jackson who had already rounded the corner behind the La Quinta Hotel, and while out of the deputy’s view, jumped into the Wicomico River. Upon approaching the river and seeing Jackson attempting to swim across, the deputy began running parallel to the river to utilize a foot bridge to the east that would allow the deputy to wait for Jackson on the other side.

Upon reaching the other side of the river, the deputy observed that Jackson was struggling to remain afloat. Before the deputy was able to provide assistance, Jackson slipped beneath the water and the deputy was unable to see him anymore. Additional law Enforcement resources along with Fire and EMS responded to the scene but Jackson could no longer be located.

After approximately ninety minutes of actively searching the waters, a Fire Department dive team located Jackson’s body at 3:29 AM.

Sheriff Lewis has requested the assistance of the Talbot County Sheriff’s Office in conducting an independent death investigation.

Releasing Authority: Lt. Tim Robinson

Wicomico County Council Violates Their Own Charter (6-9-19)

Last night at the Wicomico County Council meeting the council declined the nomination of Michele Ennis as director of finance.   We have been told this is not legal that the County Executive is the only one that can appoint department heads according to the councils own charter. In that charter the council has no right to release her and or remove any compensation.  County Executive Bob Culver legally appointed her to that position.   Per the charter, education, qualifications and  merit are the classifications for this position.  Michele is over qualified to fill this position.  

What they are attempting to do is discriminatory, not professional and in fact was personal towards County Executive Bob Culver.  Michele remains on the job today and the only person that can remove her from that position is the County Executive.

To the Wicomico County Council.  What is your reasoning for declining this nomination?  She is more than qualified for this position.  Was this done out of spite? If so every one of you needs to be replaced.

This is long but worth reading! (6-2-19)

Jane Bailey is with Chris Bailey.

It will be easier to post the story here then individually - I still need help on this and will explain later in the post.
My son's dream was to be a successful crabber - he spend all winter working on an old used boat he bought - buying equipment and preparing. He worked 3 jobs to be able to buy a new pick up truck - the only new thing he ever owned two weeks ago. Saturday May 18th was the big first day - he spent hours baiting his lines the night before and planning his trip far south to the Dorchester Co area where the crabs are running. He left at 2AM with a spring in his step and a smile on his face...the big opening day.
After crabbing for a few hours and a bushel and a half on board he started having engine trouble, so pulled his lines and limped his old boat back to the dock. Loaded his boat on the trailer and headed home with the weight of the world on his shoulders because he couldn't fill his crab orders - he was burdened with worry about the payment on the truck coming up, and he had spent every dime he had on the venture. He stopped at a stop light in Camridge - and when he pulled forward on green his boat wench and safety chain broke and his boat rolled off the trailer and into the middle of Route 50. All alone he struggled to try to move the boat to somehow wench it back up but it was too heavy. Four Maryland state troopers showed up. He asked them to give him a hand lifting it so he could get it out of the road. The laughed at him. The surrounded him and pulled out their cell phones taking videos and laughing at him posting on Facebook live the redneck kid trying to lift a boat. They told him he had to call https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100009115861389 Bradshaw's Towing to lift the boat on the trailer. He followed their instructions and asked them to put their videos down - they did not and continued to laugh and pick at him. The wrecker truck showed up and demanded $3500 in full to lift the boat on the trailer. He told them all he didn't have any money, and if he could have an hour he could get 3 or 4 friends there to help him lift it. They gave him 15 mins to decide - pay (now reduced to $1500 when they found out he didn't have insurance) immediately or they would impound and he would have to pay the $3500 plus fines and fees and storage. I was judging a goat show in Howard Co and saw my phone ring. When I answered he was sobbing - hot - tired - and beside himself, and asking me what to do. I could hear the troopers laughing at him in the background. I told him to put it on his credit card and get home and we would figure it out....
In the week that followed , he had a series of bad luck things happen to include the motor was pronounced unrepairable, the skiff he used last year pull cord broke at the dock on Saturday, and his buyers all canceled their orders for Memorial day weekend because he couldn't produce them for Friday and Saturday. There is more , more little things all bumps in the road, but to this young man it was a mountain. Last night I found out from the man who stopped by to make a payment on is Beetle Saturday night - that Dakota wept relaying the story of how the state troopers laughed and humiliated him and the wrecking company literally raped him for that $1500. These are not Neurosurgeons folks - we are talking about 10 mins worth of work . Gouging a distraught young man when he was up against the wall. I knew he was upset by it - but I had no idea how badly the video of humiliation hurt him, and that the wrecker company posted a photo on facebook of him in the intersection with his boat, and how they took advantage of him.
I want to know the names of all four troopers (I have obtained one) to arrange a meeting with their CO. I want them to hear the whole story of how my son hung himself Sunday morning - because of his perceived humiliation. I want them to learn from seeing my distraught eyes - that a simple act of kindness to kid who did nothing wrong could have changed the outcome. To learn that you never know what the Maryland citizen is going through when they are stuck in a bad situation on the road - through no fault of their own.
Now as for Roy Bradshaw's Body shop and towing company in Cambridge MD - they are on Facebook - you can google them - you can yelp. If enough of my friends 'review' them and warn others of their vulture practices maybe they will stop making a profit off the broken backs of honest hard working people just trying to make their first truck payment. What they did was no different then the contractors who rush to screw victims of hurricanes. I want his $1500 back to pay for his funeral - or $1500 worth satisfaction of crawling out from under the reviews.
The posted photo is my son sanding in the middle of Rte 50 with his boat in the road - they posted it on Facebook for Advertising..... Rot in hell Vultures ! Chris' friends if you read this...... go get em for the big guy!!!!!!!!

Alabama abortion ban: Republican senate passes most restrictive law in US (5-19-19)

Alabama’s Republican-controlled state senate passed a bill Tuesday to outlaw abortion, making it a crime to perform the procedure at any stage of pregnancy.

The strictest-in-the-nation abortion ban allows an exception only when the woman’s health is at serious risk, and sets up a legal battle that supporters hope will lead to the supreme court overturning its landmark ruling that legalized abortion nationwide.

The measure contains no exception for rape and incest, after lawmakers voted down an amendment Tuesday that would have added such an exception.

ANYONE WHO HAS A LOVED ONE BURIED IN WICOMICO CEMETERY LISTEN UP!!! (4-14-19)

I went out there and noticed everything was gone off of everyone's graves even the flowers that were in my grandparents vase. I called and questioned them and was told that the new manager (Jim Welch who isn't even from around here) is enforcing some rules which I never knew existed and nothing is allowed to be put on the graves unless it is in a vase on the tombstone. I am outraged. I always put a hanging basket of flowers to remember my parent and I can't anymore. They took my solar light off of my parents grave. So that means no solar lights, no statues, no hanging baskets, no flags, no shepherds poles....no nothing! How insensitive can any body be? If you had something on your loved ones graves go out there and see them in the office because they are holding it for a while. This is so upsetting. If this is upsetting to you too call them and let them know. I am beyond angry. This may be a small thing to some but my Mom and Dad loved flowers and I made sure they always had flowers and a solar light. Well I am not going to let this go. Call and let them know if you aren't happy about this!!!! Outraged and hurt! Please share this so others will know!

Maryland Sheriff Says It Will Be CIVIL WAR Before Gun Confiscation (2-24-19)

Sheriff Mike Lewis considers himself the last man standing for the people of Wicomico County.

“State police and highway patrol get their orders from the governor,” the Maryland sheriff said. “I get my orders from the citizens in this county.”

With more states passing stronger gun control laws, rural sheriffs across the country are taking the meaning of their age-old role as defenders of the Constitution to a new level by protesting such restrictions, News21 found.

Some are refusing to enforce the laws altogether.

Sheriffs in states like New York, Colorado and Maryland argue that some gun control laws defy the Second Amendment and threaten rural culture, for which gun ownership is often an integral component.

They’re joined by groups like Oath Keepers and the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association, both of which encourage law enforcement officers to take a stand against gun control laws.
