They could have, but that would be impossible to measure. In my gut I don't think it hurt values any more than the shootings themselves. Besides contrary belief, my issue is not criticisms of Keady, but rather character assination and although I like Tommy, his spin and distortion. No one deserves to be lied about. Everyone is responsible for whatthey say and do - not what is misinterpreted - purposefully. Back to property values. What difference does it make if it is the truth. Now here is where I am a hypocrite. I'll say what difference is there between Keady's remarks about gangs and Fishman's comments in the NYT real estate section last year or so about it not being a good time to bring families here because the schools are not good? If they are both true they have a right to be said. I am hypocritical because I lambasted Larry for that (save you all the trouble of going back to find my messages). I only hate Fishman for one reason - he is screwing up the chances of this redevelopment more than if each of us went on Good Morning America and said they were massacring people here. I don't know why you "old-timers" are not fuming at being soft-soaped. In no stretch of the imagination can the total lack of progress on the waterfront be considered reasonable. It is tantamount to the success of this city and it is just not right. I told Allan to fuck off because I don't want to play games. As for rolemover, the more time you have been here and done nothing to move this city forward - the more shame on you. Also, I pay plenty of taxes and have chosen to keep my property for my family and not rent it out - which I could make a killing doing so. Maybe I'll change my mind and just say screw this city. Lastly, I would rather have someone in office that said something I didn;t like as long as it was the truth. I'm too old to have smoke blown up my ass. Yahoo!
