Not, apparently, gratitude at being given something for nothing.
These people aren't homeless or needy- they just want free money.
At any rate, your folks have a never-ending source of entertainment with the local government.
Cheers and be safe this weekend. My buddies on the "American-Irish Olympic Drinking Team" are training for Beijing in NYC this weekend. Expect beer shortages...
“Angelica Rivera, a 28-year-old mother of five...”
Bet she’s single.
“We’re all working people...”
Bet not.
“That’s why I’m here. This is my first child,” Palmer said. “We really need it.”
What she NEEDS is a job (a husband wouldn’t hurt, either).
“This place is going to get shot up later,” she yelled to officers. “They can’t treat us like this.”
Treat her like WHAT, exactly? Like a self-entitled, demanding POS? Was this idiot arrested for making terrorist threats? Why not? How much longer must ordinary people and the police be treated to such behavior by these people before the public starts making demands on THEM?
When are we going to stand up to these people and start making them responsible for their own life choices and behaviors?
>>”This place is going to get shot up later,” she yelled to officers. “They can’t treat us like this.”<<
Kind of sounds like a terroristic threat
“this is my first child”
No doubt, the first of a dozen which she will demand that the taxpayers take care of.
Bet not.
If so, how do they have the time to stand in line 8 hrs to apply for free money?
People grew agitated. Several fights broke out.
Instant gratification, Democrat voters expect to get ‘change’ but will end up with many more ‘hand outs’. Low tax rates for the rich would offer more opportunity for these poor to work and meet their own housing needs.
A public notice said the housing agency would give out applications starting 9 a.m. Wednesday. But hundreds of people started camping out the night before at the office on Glades Road . Boca Raton police called Judith Aigen, authority executive director, to the office around 11:30 p.m. Tuesday as the crowd grew, and she decided to give out the applications then.
Honestly, I get upset when I get lied to. Apart from the larger issue of giving away free money confiscated from taxpayers, I can understand their frustration when they're told to be there at 9am and the ones who cooperate get shafted.
I'll bet we'll hear this later today: The obvious solution to this dilemma is MORE government intervention in our lives. Please, mister politician, bend us over again! Take even more of our money and give it to everyone who shows up! yay, socialism!
They should not have given any out prior to the appointed time.
I stopped by a real estate office yesterday. I saw half a dozen condos listed at $100,000. These were in Delray Beach, Boca Raton, Boynton Beach, and Lake Worth. One in Delray Beach was $42,500 and it did not say that it was a 55+ community. I didn’t even look at the listings in West Palm or Riviera Beach.
"Ahhhhh,Wait one minute! It's not 'free money', IT'S MY TAX MONEY their giving away! "
The overwhelming turnout of people desperate for housing money came as little surprise to Suzanne Cabrera, president of the Housing Leadership Council of Palm Beach County
Let’s see, the housing market is in the toilet, the stock market is down, the economy is losing jobs, we are in a pre-recession and this women did not realize that people might turn out in droves????? What is up with her????
Disgusting. It looked almost like the New Orleans Superdome crowd. Wait, they are interchangable? Of course, free is free, no matter where you give it out. Especially when we “owe” it to certain groups. In this case, you had to be a sow, have had one or more litters with multiple last names, have no husband around, and be willing to be loud and demanding. The result: Instant success with both the federal and state government.
Welcome to life in the Worker's Paradise, Deborah.
wow....intersing!
desperate for housing money, but apparently NOT desperate enough to get a job and earn it.
