My home, along with everyone else’s on my street, does not have a way where trash cans could move from the back of the house to the front because of grass and fences. Meaning they will have to live on front porches and sidewalks, and probably just in the main street. This will create so many more issues for cars, people using the sidewalks, odors and basic sanitation.
Why did the city not purchase the appropriate sized trucks? I’m sorry this happened, but they need find the money to purchase new trucks.
This neighborhood area of Dallas was master planned around alleyways, our homes were literally built around them. It is the city’s job to maintain them, and to continue trash service in them like they have done for the past 65+ years.
Police departments exist to protect and serve. At the point that the officers are instead terrorizing and traumatizing, they’re just thugs with a badge. Who protects us from them? I don’t want to teach my kids to fear the police, but at what point do these officers stop being bullies with a badge and gun? 👀 I signed this petition because I care about our small community and I care about the people in it that suffer with mental disorders and disabilities and I believe they have the right to live free of assault and harassment by a police officer the same as the rest of us! You’re only one bad day from ending up in that elderly man’s shoes! Sign the petition, Boyle county has a plenty of crooked cops endangering its citizens. Let’s clean house one by one.
We lay our lives on the line trusting these officers not to discriminate against us. We trust them because we have no other choice. When all other services fail they are the front line - and this behavior has never been accepted - our laws should reflect that. Officers are getting away with murder. I for one did not pay taxes or vote for murderes to be in charge of law enforcement. They are men and woman litterally like any other citizens an if the shoe fits for us there certainly should not be immunity for them.
