Well our budget in New York is very late, again for the 19th or 20th year in a row. Now I hear that if they do not pass a budget soon, a court ordered that a contingency budget be put in place. The problem is that this allows school funding for New York City ONLY. No upstate (not the Catskills and orange county)funding of schools. Once again, the New York assembly and senate work for New York City.

Also, I recently talked to a police officer and was told point blank that the NY State Troopers and the Local police (Syracuse Police) have daily ticket quotas both on main roads (i.e. certain stretches of 81 have their own number) and in the cities.

I am about sick of this lack of Freedom. And I DO NOT MEAN THE PATRIOT ACT. That is specifically allowing current law to apply to terrorists. I am talking about the Cell phone, smoking, speed limit and gun laws. I thought the Constitution said "the right to KEEP and BEAR arms SHALL NOT be infringed upon." Hey people SHALL NOT means absolutely NO, NEVER, NOT GONNA HAPPEN, not maybe).

WAKE UP AMERICA,
