PUBLIC VIEWPOINT: Support Local Grocery Store

.
Good humane letter Mike Compton however, if you truly want to reduce the killing of pets you first must establish some restrictions so that the number of unwanted pets is reduced.
.
Enforcing licensing requirements for pets is one way to start.
Making spay and neuter wide-spread and available at reduced rates is another.

We just paid several hundred$ to have a 6 yr old female spayed. Not everyone can afford to do that.

PUBLIC VIEWPOINT Fayetteville Parks Are Green, Blue

>>These three old water supply lakes contain 739 acres of water or about 22 percent of the city’s total parkland of 3,380 acres.<

Last time I looked at a terrain map of Lake Sequoyah
it alone contains 1500 acres.

Sentence upheld for man who married his daughter

As Alpha should 'shirley know, honor is not recognized by the law. It's a political consideration.
However, establishing intent requires the skills of the least admirable profession.

Transit Tax Crashes

>>If you want people to support public transit, get the info out. Asking people to pay for that occasional bus they see ain't gonna cut it>

Great idea Buddafly. However, as mentioned above the local paper monopoly refuses to do any community bulletins to help keep people informed.

Here's a starting point, the Ozark Regional Transit webpage. Click on schedules and maps button:

PUBLIC VIEWPOINT: Advance Pancreatic Cancer Research Bill

Great point Jon Zimmer!

Sorry PAUL N. BRUNO but the only way pancreatic cancer research will get Womack's attention is IF one his supporting corporations can make a bunch of money from it.

What does the Springdale Chamber of Welfare do?
.
First they announce that the old main street, Emma St, is not going to be saved or fixed. The story was in this paper from the head Chicken catcher Webb at the Chamber of Welfare. Ironically, the Chamber has members with business on Emma. But, they stated in black and white paper that growth is slated for around the socialism ball park where the some of Welfare members hold substantial properties.

The late Jones family is providing growth in west Springdale by converting their large family farm into well defined ;and controlled neighborhoods.
.
The Springdale Welfare Chamber thrives off the taxpayer. City of Little Rock, with over 4x higher population, provides their Chamber with $220,000 per year. Business is thriving there.
.
Springdale Welfare Chamber receives over TWICE as much from taxpayers as the Little Rock chamber gets from LR tax payers. Chickenopolis Welfare Chamber also gets the money from Advertising and Promotion budget collected via sales taxes.

for more on Springdale's Welfare Chamber see link below. There's many good columns so browse thoroughly.

Regarding ethnic crime being high in Springdale, according to Chief of Police O'Kelley it's not. So that's a big fib told by a poster above. In April '07 O'Kelley published a study SPD did of all Springdale arrests. Hispanic arrests were in the same proportion as Hispanics are to the general population.
You can beg this paper to dig up the study report since this paper is no longer a paper of record.

Transit Tax Crashes

>>looks like people in the smaller towns helped defeat this tax because they thought they would not benefit from an expanded bus system. I don't know if it would or not because I never saw any info about proposed bus routes.<
.
For that lack of information to smaller cities and towns you can thank our local Stephens-Hussman MONOPOLY paper for that. TV news has never presented real information since over half of it is entertainment and advertisements.
.
Hussman papers have a long history of selective news views. Sorry to see this once-local paper be brought down to that level.

COMMENTARY: America Addicted To Sex, Violence

If tea party republicans continue their march we will be back in the days of the old west when there were no government water supplies, few schools, no government maintained highways. There will be no FDA, no SEC it's just a survival market. Buyer Beware. That's what they seem to be clamoring for while they line up for Medicare and I knew of one Tea bagger-NRA fan who had an immediate family member on Medicaid and was screaming anti-government slogans.
