I wish them luck. I had writing on my building and repainted it last saturday, by Wednesday of this week it was back. luckily I had some paint left, looks like I will be repainting it again this saturday. Will it ever end??
I wish we could spray paint the kids doing it. Or spray paint their grandmothers houses see how it feels.
But I have to work otherwise I would be there to help. Have fun good luck to all who go!
I didn't realize having a hanky sticking out of your pocket meant that you were in a gang! I've done that for years (accidentally). guess I better make sure it is tucked all the way in from now on. I will be watching to see who has one sticking out around town from now on. (see Saturday's DLN)
It's funny after reading that article on saturday I've noticed a few young men on the streets with the hankerchiefs in their back pockets. What a shame that there is no one in their lives to teach them.
I seem to recall a handkerchief in his pocket. A yellow one as I remember. Just could not figure what the dark mark in the middle was however.
So what is the latest regarding the lawsuit you spoke of in your knee jerking resignation letter. What was the outcome and what did it cost us taxpayers?
How did the painting go on saturday? I had to work otherwise I would have been there.
The news article doesn't say ALL african americans are looting the mexicans in coatesville. BUT the whites are not the ones looting them because there are hardly any whites in coatesville. The town is definitely out of control, I think everyone can agree on that!
No, June 29, 2008 4:55 AM says the "african american community" and my reference to racism is the postings on this site.
There are more whites in Coatesville than you would like to lead on to and many of them are a part of the problem as well.
There's a lot we can agree on when the facts are straight, dialog is respectful and not intended to paint groups of people with a broad brush. I remember when the revitalization was very close and the city even felt and looked like it was right around the corner. So now a city council has been "VOTED IN" by the people of Coatesville and everything has gone down the tubes. THAT's where the focus should be, why did things get the way they are.
For all of their faults, I bet the previous council is laughing away at how this has played out.
BUT...Walmart is coming in and that is a bright spot. Now just wait and see how the negative people from this site will start talking about the place getting robbed. Oh I mean, how the BLACK community will be robbing it.
Former Life Long Coatesville Resident and Loving It.
Not hardly Wal-Mart coming - it's Walgreens, which is a horse of a different color altogether. A Wal-Mart would go bankrupt in Coatesville (not enough residents with money to spend to support it alone and no one coming to shop from out-of-town). A Walgreen's, on the other hand, just might make it. Drugstores get paid by health insurance, Medicaid and Medicare to the revenue streams on the highest margin items are more or less consistent. Sante Piscoglio sold drugs on the other corner for generations and made a living, so I imagine Walgreens will do ok.
On a different note... so much for the new trees along Lincoln Hwy. no one is watering them and they are starting to wilt. At least if they were planted in the ground they might find some moisture but with the hot sun beating on those crazy flower pots all day I'm sure they dry as a bone inside. I did see one merchant watering the one in front of his shop but what about the rest??
One important rule to follow if you are going to deal drugs:
MAKE SURE you pay your suppliers the money you owe them or you will get a bullet in the head!
man u ppl are dumb u should do it and u will like doing it u can get a adrenalen rush from doing it i doit all the time and got busted 2 times and i still do it
Wow you too.? That Duro person got my neighborhood last week I just wish he would quit cause he's really getting out of hand.!.
Some kid been spraypainting a cartoon dog around Coatesville, and next to it he writes the word Bonez. This kid done tagged my whole neighborhood, I hope his dumb ass gets caught.
Yeah he tagged my god damn Trailer.
That Bonez guy Is really getting outta hand with his Tagging he got my whole neighborhood from 1st to 11th street
Im from Philadelphia and I see that Dog cartoon everywhere, it's all over the place, theirs no escaping it. I often wonder how the guy doing this climb those buildings and tall bridges without falling.
Where's he from?
I heard he's from Coatesville.
