Knoxville has parking issues? Who’d’ve thunk it?
The Sierra Times writes:
Up until Sept. 26, Knox County Mayor Mike Ragsdale was the primary official catching all the heat about parking passes for the city-county parking garage.
All public parking for the garage, located under the city-county building in Knoxville, TN, was suspended because of so-called “terrorist” threats.
The city, citing concern with elevated security threats, limited the city-county parking access to select city-county employees.
After threat levels were dropped, the city-county refused to reopen the parking garage to the public.
The official reasons for the closed parking blew higher than a terrorist bomb on Sept. 26. That’s the day Knox County Sheriff Tim Hutchinson became the bad guy in the parking hot-seat.
The sex scandal aside, do they really think that Al Qaeda is going to target the City-County Building?
The sex scandal, however, does illustrate Sheriff Tim’s continued scandalous behavior.

No, but I am still amazed that one of Judge Swain’s victims-at-the-bar hasn’t detonated five tons of TNT under his office yet.

Why the dumbasses in Knox co continue to vote for “Boss” Hutchinson bewilders me. The man is made of rubber…every lawsuit filed against him either fails or languishes for years on end with no positive results. I find it rather odd the Justice Department and/or EEOC hasnt investigated him yet.

Speaking as on of the non-select employees who has to walk several blocks to work in that building, allow me to give a healthy “go to hell” to everyone involved.
