Pearland ignores own law/Cruz couldn't care less about me/Then Mod Strikes me with ZOT

Personal experience | 04/24/2015 | CraigHenry

[CraigHenry]

The City of Pearland, TX completely ignored its own code of ordinances in order to assess a fine against me over an animal I never owned. I proved my case in open court, but my evidence was ignored. I e-mailed Ted Cruz because he purports to be a champion of citizens' rights and principles. I asked for his help, but he couldn't even trouble himself to respond let alone offer any assistance. I guess he only supports individuals who can help fill his campaign coffers. Yessir, your tax dollars at work. Makes me proud to be a Texas conservative voter.

Hello.

Goodbye.

Welcome to FR. I think.

Ted Cruz is not the local dog catcher! Maybe Bush II will help as he’s retired.

[Zathras]

ZOT. Solve your own problem

[MortMan]

I’m sure you are very concerned.

Did you start with the county or state level?

[conservativejoy]

I’m sorry, but you honestly think a Senator has time to monitor an animal ordinance case? A local official would be a more appropriate recourse.

You signed up today to rag on Cruz?

[max americana]

You posted today to bitch about Cruz? How could you type when you hands are on obamaturd’s ass cheeks?

“a fine against me over an animal I never owned”

Tell a liberal newspaper about it. I am sure they would be more than happy to do a write up. Good luck.

You e-mailed him, did you?

I'll bet almost NO ONE ever sends him an e-mail.

And I'm shocked beyond measure that within minutes of receiving your e-mail he did not drop absolutely everything else he was doing and rush right out to meet you on your property to personally solve all of the problems you have been having with your LOCAL government.

First of all, sir, you are not very smart about politics. Cruz is a representative for the state to the federal government. If you were being wronged by the federal government, then you would want to take your grievance to Cruz.

You are being wronged by local government - go to local representatives. Duh.

Second. Seriously? You join FR to bash Cruz because you have no idea how to engage government?

[WayneS]

Apparently he started with the federal level... ...and the legislative branch, at that.

[GeronL]

It would make more sense to contact your State Representative, State Senator or maybe the state Attorney General about this.

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

I sent a mental message for you to send me $1000 that I desperately need. I still haven’t received it. You’re a complete jerk.

[Tupelo]

Craig, Did you ever think about contacting your member of the House of Representatives? Or your state Representative? Or county Commissioner? or hiring a Lawyer?

Interceding in a very local matter is really not in a Senator's job description. Especially as the founders intended.
