Well dollaradayandfound I hate to give you my breath or time or day but I can answer the question you asked city hall. The Chief of Police answers to the City Manager unless he is pending tril for DUI, and then he answers to the Mayor unless the Mayor is pending trial and then he would answer to the City Council if they were not pending trial for anything. Now that is logic I know you will understand through the FOG you live in every day.

To reply to Myword_mark, indontknow doesn't have a conscience; therefore, a stream of conscience is just not possible. Rhetorical, not indontknow. His is more of a flatulence of the mind.

Mayor Logsdon is still a curmudgeon favorite and idontknow leads the cheers.

Vote Republican

Much to my shock and dismay (yeah right), there are several uninformed know-it-alls on this blog who offer their opinion as fact. Fortunately, most readers take the time to research the issues, as I did, and understand that the deceit and lies of these degenerates are nothing more than poor attempts to discredit some and mislead other. Bladderq and “ptc blogs intyme”, would either of you know the truth even if it bit you in the butt? Could you guys be any more dishonest or is that just a part of your personalities? By the way, go to the city’s website. Check the police department’s yearly report. If my math is even close, somewhere between 40%-44% of all police department traffic stops result in warnings. Doesn’t that shoot a hole in your theories (or better yet lies). I guess that’s just the facts, something that you people are obviously unfamiliar with. Can you say credibility? Both of you have discredited yourselves with your venom, lies and propaganda about our fine police department (especially you bladderq). Sometimes you think like a nut, sometimes you………no, you always think like a nut.

You are full of it!!

PTC has always, always been a ticket city! I would love to have even one person come forward, and tell us they have ever received a warning...........go on tell us...even one? Yeah I didn't think so.

That is part of how they serve us and keep us safe, from road rage drunks, and kids who are careless drivers.

If your kids are violent and destructive they will protect us from you and your kids. As well they should.

I see our officers doing "random acts of kindness" all of the time.

The other day I saw one help a senior citizen get into the grocery store and help her get into the little mortorized cart...
Several months ago there was a letter to the editor to thank the officer who helped a motorist rescue a family of little ducklings after their mother had been hit.
A month ago I saw one officer help a family catch their dog that had hopped out of the car when they stopped at a restaurant....they caught the dog before it got hit.

Our cops are unfailingly polite, almost to a fault. They won't let you go with a warning......but they would never hit you either. Do you really want the kind of cops that got their job by default?

If you are drinking and driving you should feel a constant threat from them and every other cop......if your kids feel the extreme "need" to destroy everything that isn't your property, you should feel threatened. In the last two years the kids here have become increaseingly violent and destructive....there crimes do not deserve a warning. Back in the day when all kids did was tp someones house that was different. Now we are talking about thousands of dollars in damages, and kids with access to guns.

Both of you jerks do not know what you are talking about and are striking out at law enforcement because you either have bad kids that can't follow the law or in your case Bladderq, defend guys on the internet looking for kids. Bladderq still having fun in your little dark room of yours while on the internet? Neither one of you have the guts to put your name on anything you write. As for you PTc blogs, a bloger for 1 hour, it is really easy to figure who you are. Stop drinking at night and spend your time doing your home work on city issues that you are paid to look at. Bladderq I thought you did us all a favor and whet back into that little spider hole the last time you made a jerk out of yourself. Promise me o promise me neither of you two fools ever produced any children that will have your sick way of thinking in the future.

Advise to both of you MOVE !

THE big gun... wow! scare me.. What is your name big guy, I mean gun? You didn't post yours either arse..

I don't have bad kids, have great kids as a matter of fact, and none have met the blue light special, yet.. But it is only a matter of time because of the state of the union.. they WILL get their first ticket in PTC, no doubt.. and will be the first time the boys in blue decide to stop them, for whatever the misdemeanor charge is.. It won't be a talk, it won't be a warning, it will be a ticket.. No doubt in my mind..

They can be honor students, never been in trouble, participate in good community activities, but the boys in blue will meet the revenue plan.. I assure you.. tymes have changed in this city, particularly the past 10 years. it is just not the same anymore..

Go see the former PTC cop in the wheel chair at the BP Store on 54.. Richard, ask him how the boys in blue have changed.. it is a different tyme... It is no longer about helping others, cash is king and budget plans must be met.. for all..

ptc_blogs_intyme post - "Go see the former PTC cop in the wheel chair at the BP Store on 54.. Richard, ask him how the boys in blue have changed.. "

If you referring to "Richard", whom hangs out at the BP on 54 next to Peachtree National Bank - He was NEVER a PTC Cop, but retired as a PTC Firefighter after 10 years of service with the city.

So typical of so many of the "Curmudgeons" whom post all the accusations, false statements and rants and whines daily here and in the paper.

You just don't know what your talking about. I worked with Richard!

intheknow

The honor student argument, isn't really a good or plausible argument.

The kid that shot his friend at the drug party last summer, was an "honor student". One of the kids that broke into those stores last summer was an "honor student". Two of the kids who have been arrested for damaging my property were "honor students" and guess what their parents had to say...go on guess...."they have never been in trouble before". Ok I know half of you just went into shock, you didn't see that responce coming did you?

Guess what? Ted Bundy was an "HONOR STUDENT" He was also a serial killer and has fortunatly been put to death already.

Stop with the silly honor student argument.

I didn't start this post but I told you so.
When they came for the Commies, I didn't speak (& so on) & then they came for me & I couldn't speak.
Go to city court on Wed and see the cases they bring. Prove the Boys in Blue don't treat it like a game & the winner is the one that gets the most in fines.
Was the latest PEDio- bust made off an adult web-site or is she in the kids only chat-room?

Been there, watched em... I know what they are doing.. I know the judges personally, I've seen first hand the boys in blue and have experience with the lawyers.. It is nothing but a financial gain/game for all..

None of them could give a crap less about human beings, other than what is their wallets and how much cash they can shift to theirs..

gotta meet budget plans of course..

gov't workers in this town are no longer different than the free enterprise captialistic opportunist, no differnt then the bankers and g6....

Go to the lake ptc blogs intyme. Better yet, go to Montana and join one of those anti-establishment white supremacist groups. Be careful though and keep a real close watch behind you. The men and women in blue are all around you and probably have your phone tapped. Heck, they may have even planted a computer chip in your brain. Better yet, they probably have been conspiring with the aliens to beam you up, probe your body, and conduct test on you. I wouldn't put it past them a bit. The ringleader is probably the guy at the store on Hwy 54. We all know that the police would do anything to make you violate the law just to issue you a ticket. It’s scary, isn’t it. Heck, you scare me.

Crybaby?? Obviously, you didn't read your own blog! I haven't heard that much childish and immature talk and bullying in your response since the 3rd grade playground.

Jeez, just how old are you? Do your parents know you are on the computer instead of in school?

Your response is so typical of someone who won't respond to the crux of the issue - attack the messenger (which by the way doesn't bother me in the least bit...it just makes you look unintelligent).

Look, I don't know Lenox, Logsdon, Pace, Christian, Godfrey, Brown, or any of the other big bad wolves at the door and I don't have anything to gain or lose with any of them in office or out of office. And I certainly don't agree with everything that's been done by any of them but that was not the point of my comment.

My point is (again!) why don't you (and the other whiners) come out from behind your PC's and run for office or join a board, association or authority where you might just make a real difference in the community? After all, as you imply in your response, you are much smarter than the rest of us.

You and I know both know the answer.....you and the others are scared to be put in a public forum where your identity is known, your vote really means something with an impact on the citizens and you have to publicly justify why you voted or didn't vote on a matter.

After all, it's just so much easier hiding behind the monitor being the know it all second guessing everything that everyone else does.

The ailing Mudcat has accused no less than 37 bloggers on this site of being Steve Brown. The guilt rooting through Mudcat's subconscious mind for supporting TDK and the development authority bums has him yelling Steve’s name at cars passing by.

If you don't agree with his choice for mayor, you must be Steve Brown. Mudcat's wife is Borntorun, so that's why he's getting so touchy with Jonesie.

By the way Borntorun, your husband called you a "Direct PAC pusher" in his other post. Putting him out on the sofa?

Vote Republican

You've all got it wrong.

Immature - for sure.
Best thing to do is not respond to his attacks.

He has issues with the current Mayor because he was beaten badly by him and when the loser who now calls himself "jones" and other things was in office he frequently said "I love being your mayor" Remember that?

Hey Cal! Why don't you limit him to one screen name? Huh?
meow

First of all Borntorun, you have no sense of humor. There will be no candy in your stocking this year.

Second, is your real name "Borntorun"? Don't you think it's a bit hypocritical for you to be accusing others of hiding behind their monitors?? Get real buddy.

I do vote and I do e-mail elected officials from time to time on things. But do you really think anybody who is not in Mayor Harold Curmudgeon's camp is going to have any influence. I've got several friends who voted for him and are absolutely in shock.

Anybody who still supports TDK after the articles in the papers last week is crazy or crooked. It's hard to change their mind in either case. Speaking of crazy, how about Judy Rutherford? They need a tranquilizer gun at City Hall.

Do you SERIOUSLY feel unsafe in Peachtree City? There have been 2 murders in PTC this year, and neither one was random! That's the most there has been in decades!!!!

You haven't heard a word out of the PTC administration about what they are doing for your protection? How about trying to hire more firefighters and police officers this year WITHOUT raising your taxes?

And "agenda for the people" - all those groups that you mention ARE a part of the people. If we take out "former military", I think about 25% of PTC would get mad

What, specifically, do you want to hear from the "administration"? The city puts out press releases every time they arrest some internet offender or stop a housefire...do they really need to knock on your door every day?

And "best that you can" is good enough in my book. Unless you're going them a blank check (and you're not), then you do the best you have with what you've got. And the agenda was set when you voted folks in - they told you what they were going to do.

Harold Logsdon said he would get TDK moving - take this quote from the Chamber of Commerce "Candidate Forum" in the election:

I would first like to state that I would be in favor of completing this project in cooperation with Fayette and Coweta officials for the most economically efficient solution. The realistic situation is that the TDK extension is already in motion. I feel that my responsibility is not to be an obstacle to the completion of the
project, as it now stands with the current Mayor. The timely completion of this project is vital to PTC’s economy and Fayette County at large.

Taxes - here's what was said in the Citizen's Candidates Forum by the mayor:
I want to use my experience as a certified internal auditor, fraud investigator, and business operations manager to evaluate our city government for efficiency, as well as to better manage our budget. This way we can stabilize and work to reduce the tax burden on our citizens.

Tennis Center Debt - Logsdon said he would settle the Tennis Center debt, and he did.

You got what you voted for, folks.

People put government on this magical pedestal that believes it will cure all ills and make the world what it is - it's a two-way street, folks.

Do YOU pick up the trash on the paths? Do YOU make sure to follow all the rules of the road? Do YOU take the time to look at the budget and ASK questions (not say, "I don't think we need this", but say "what is this used for?"). Have ANY ONE of you gone to a City department and asked "how do you do your job"? You have the right to, ya know.

It's funny - schoolchildren go to City Hall all the time to learn about how government works. It's a shame that adults don't do the same thing...
