"Local city leaders, however, expressed relief that the governor acted urgently to get the cities funds they need to pay for police and fire services, among other things."

"Burton was just as hostile, saying: "My mother didn't raise me to take money from poor women and children and give it to people who own five or six BMWs or Mercedes.""

So the funds are to be used for police and fire services...I didn't know that the police and fire department only serviced people that owned five or six BMWs or Mercedes. Last time I checked, they also answered the calls for help coming from poor women and children.

Oh BTW, poor women and children, DON'T PAY TAXES, so you're not really taking money away from them are you?

Do these guys wake up in the morning and take and extra dose of stupid pills?

Best Regards

Sergio
