The Tazer is happy this morning...

The "web geek" in us is pleased that we've FINALLY gotten a response from someone who doesn't quite agree with our calling city officials on the carpet. Here's a goodie from the comments section:

"Same old thing every day from the Tazer, let's blast Irma. Get REAL you bunch of highly opinionated Geeks. This isn't Oz and there is no wizard. Why can't you appreciate the genuine efforts being made in this community to deal with the violence we are all subject to?"

TAZER NOTE: First off, the Tazer thanks you for having enough sand to actually come and post your opinion.

Secondly, The Tazer doesn't "blast Irma" every day, the council and any other poverty or politcal pimp that is either trying to bleed this city dry or gain from the deaths of people in our community will be called out here...if you take a look back, the City Council is called out regularly for their lack of action.

Thirdly, do you find it the least bit uncomfortable to say that Irma Anderson shouldn't be called out for her lack of action? SHE IS THE MAYOR OF THE CITY. These murders (and all the other screw ups over the last 4 years) HAVE HAPPENED ON HER WATCH. When you go out to eat and the service is bad, who do you want to talk to? THE BOSS...that servers' performance (or lack there of) is a direct reflection of that boss. Welcome to the world...you pay the cost to be the boss. No one twisted Irma's arm to be mayor.

Finally, The Tazer does appricate the GENUINE EFFORTS being made to stop violence in our community. That portion of your comment we take offense to, as The Tazer was created in a effort to make those thathave the power to stop the violence realize that cannot get away with NOT doing their job, or attempting to gain from the deaths of people. As recently as yesterday (in case you haven't read that far), The Tazer praised Chief Magnus for having the grapes to step up and deal with this:

"TAZER NOTE: The Tazer belives that Chief Magnus does have a plan to stop this violence, but we also believe that he's going to need A LOT of help, which he won't get from the assorted politcial poverty pimps in an election year. The Tazer is asking the people in our communities to offer any help you can to the RPD and the chief to make something happen. "

Again, we thank you for your comments, but at least give the "web geeks" a fair shake and read throughly :) . We realize that this isn't "Oz" and their is no "wizard". The Tazer has seen many friends die over the years due to violence and lack of action, so our experience is as first hand as anyone elses.
