I'm still confused!
Wasn't LD the one who wrote the article in the gazette? Did the parks and recreation committee and town board reconsider???

I hardly think that they can prevent texting during a town board meeting or ANY public meeting. There are many parents who are texting to their children and many people texting for work issues.

DVOR- THE ENFORCER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."

I couldn't care less if anyone texts or uses a cell phone during the meeting.     They go on long enough -- I am planning to bring a little tv or radio the next time.

tell the police chief to send dunzy with his paddy wagon and handcuffs

but i think they need a local law


ah thats what mondays meeting is
the local law, and public hearing on no cell phones/ blackberrys

i could see the turning off of ringers!!!!

but this is censorship

from wiki
"Censorship is suppression of speech or other communication which may be considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, or inconvenient to the general body of people as determined by a government, media outlet, or other controlling body."

and a few click later i find this

Heckler's veto - worth a read

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heckler%27s_veto

and doesn't this next line just sound so rotterdam -  something everyone who attends is quilty of


Michigan State University professor of political science William B. Allen has used the phrase verbal terrorism to refer to the same phenomenon, defining it as "calculated assault characterized by loud side-conversations, shouted interruptions, jabbered false facts, threats and personal insults."

so FDG and Mr. Godlewski the use of the Blackberry/cell phone/iphone/whatever else my team uses to gather data about the goings on within rotterdam does NOT prevent the current administration/town board or any individual from speaking and being heard

the larger problem is an individual being nominated to the parks and rec(blackberry/cell phone  vs  heckler's veto)

the people who dream up these rules remind me of the residue found on a nice soft piece of "northern" used to wipe my rectal orifice the morning after the super bowl following the consumption of:
6-12oz beers
a dozen or so hot wings
horseradish diip slatherd on cornchips
a large bowl of chilli with beans
a breakfast of bran muffins
under cooked tacos which usually results in some gastric distress
Grape Soda which produces a know repeatable result which looks like the green outfit our absent town clerk loves to wear.

get the picture???   - you can shove your 1980's cell phone through your  "rectal orifice"  - sideways
