Hungry for violence?
A lawsuit over the killing of several dogs is going forward.
A lawsuit will proceed in U.S. District Court on November 6 over a May 8, 2003 incident where Pennsylvania Constables Richard Seeds, 41, Greg Balliet and Vincent Stahl fired eleven shots killing two dogs and five puppies while serving an arrest warrant for unpaid parking tickets in an Allentown home
What is worth taking note of is the words of the law right before the shootings.
Judge James Knoll Gardner allowed the prosecution to let the jury know that just before the incident, Seeds told his colleagues, “I have to get something to eat or I am going to shoot somebody.”

Ok … so I just read the News Sentinel story about Frank Nicely and Stacey Campfield using tax dollars to send mailings. While the article is welcomed, there are major differences between Mr. Nicely’s mailing and Stacey’s. Frank’s mailing was a survey not linked to any other campaign literature. Stacey’s tax sponsored mailings were not so clean… Stacey’s tax-payer mailings were in the exact same format as a mailing paid for by his campaign just a few days earlier. His picture was in the same spot, the colors were exactly the same, the fonts were exactly the same, the background was exactly the same, etc. But of course, the one difference between Stacey’s first mailing and his next two, were that he funded them with tax dollars when he ran out of money.
Another major difference between Frank’s mailings and Stacey’s mailings were timing: Unlike Frank, Stacey sent his mailings during early voting.
