Politicians Soft on Crime

DAY OF DECISION IN SUNNYSIDE

- City Council debates adding two police officers to form an anti-gang unit.
- A “YES” vote is bad news for the bad guys.
- Former police officer and Councilman Don Vlieger says there is no greater priority and he can demonstrate the money is available. ”We can afford it,” says Vlieger, “what we can’t afford is to let the gangs take over Sunnyside.“
- The top Sunnyside Police commanders have long been in favor of a dedicated gang unit.
- Mayor Jim Restucci has told people he has always wanted an Anti-Gang Squad.
- Councilman Mike Farmer says “It is time to stop studying the problem, and time to start solving the problem.“
- Packed public meetings have enthusiastically supported hiring more officers.

If a person studies the history of the legislature; you will find that Margarita Prentice is instrumental in starting the gang problems in this valley. Talking to many hispanic families over the years has brought much to light per Margarita Prentice. As one sweet lady said when kids could work the fields, there wasn’t any gang problems. The kids came home from school, did their homework and went to bed. She knew where her kids were because they knew they had to get up early each morning and work. Her kids not only had spending money earned honestly; but also learned a work ethic. And each of her kids are very successful today because they did not want that hard manual labor rest their lives. And she and others have said today that this is the cause of all the youth problems .
Now Margarita Prentice is the one keeping the youth out of the fields and keeping them from learning a work ethic. Of course Prentice’s problem is not kids working, but taking work away from union members.
And the only real way of changing this is getting these parents to Olympia and somehow getting Prentice to understand the problems per youth today. But, a miracle may be in order to get Prentice to even want to hear about the youth over her union affiliates! Seems these liberals do not care nor understand youth. Look at our own city councilmembers in hancock, Restucci, gehlen, Paulakis and Garcia who are local people watching youth being killed and disregard life as it was worthless! Yeah, their lives may be worthless, ( and by watching their actions, these councilmen are worthless to Sunnyside ) but these youth are totally precious human being that you are being thrown to the wayside !
Wayne – Your expose on crime and those elected and appointed officials who foster criminal activity in the name of “humanitarian legislation” is well-placed. As Americans, we have been standing with our hands in our pockets, watching football games, going to the theater, skiing, working, and paying taxes while those who profit from ILLEGAL have been thriving upon our tax dollars and the plight of those misguided human beings who have chosen the path of ILLEGAL. Keep up the good work!!
