I don't mind political threads on this forum......as long as the politics STAY in those threads. The problem with FLL is that he pops up in threads on dental care, and food reviews with his political views ? It's outrageous behavior, and shows a lack of RESPECT for his fellow forum members.

As for the half-truths, and outright lies that have been exposed over & over by other posters concerning FLL.....what can you do ? Buyer beware I suppose

To the Democratic Republic of New Hampshire. Any and all will be taxed if, when and where we say so! And there isn't anything or anybody that can do anything about it!

Sorry Less, then you better run down to the nearest medical supply house and pick yourself up one of these:



Because your friends the Democrats have complete control of the House, the Senate, the Executive Council & the Governor's Office and guess what; yep...there's no serious proposals for an income tax before any of those esteemed bodies!

p.s. - Don't forget, December 14th is just around the corner......

That's the thing......you're not sorry. You could care less who's toes you step on in this forum. I've seen at least 4 or 5 different posters ask you to please post your political diatribes in the proper threads.....not so much as a peep is heard from you about their concers.

Forums like this work best when posters are responsive to other posters concerns. We ALL have made mistakes posting out here, including me.......but if I am asked by other posters on a regular basis (like you have been) to watch my posting habits then I try my best to respect those concerns. I don't get you, or your behavior, at all. It's not funny, it's not kind, and it's not respectful of others.

A visual picture can have a lot of impact, and Skip in his above post has whipped up a very strong visual communication in a very short time as his response. I notice that for a period of years, his logo has always been "Ignorance of the law is no excuse" Well, this is not a court of law, but with that picture of the strait jacket it makes me feel like I am being prosecuted for my opinions......and that's what they are....my opinions.

If this were a court of law just imagine how difficult it would be to defend oneself against a "Mr Prosecutor Skip." With his computer skills, ability to find the specific related law, and his fast intelligence, you would not have an easy time of it.

A forum is supposed to be an exchange of ideas and not be getting down and dirty. So, I say let's just keep the peace on our forum, and here's a great big MERRY CHRISTMAS to Skip.

As a New Hampshire Republican who is long used to having his way, Skip knows if he cannot attack the message, then he attacks the messenger! So, come on Skip, let's stay on track here by staying away from personal attacks and staying on topic. ...thanks in advance!

[JDeere]

FLL it is Skip who stays to the facts and posts them. Your opinions are always stated as factual information when they are anything but that. You stray far from the facts when you begin your diatribe that is laden with verisimilitudes in your effort to put forth your agenda. If I disliked NH as much as you do I would leave! I am sure a few of us would be willing to help you pack.

[Skip]

And if you're a good boy, maybe Santa will leave a big fat abatement in your stocking this year!

Sincerely, a Merry Christmas to you as well Less!

Be safe & enjoy the holidays,

Skip

[SIKSUKR]

I must say that FLL still makes me laugh occasionally.I know he can't really believe all that mumbo jumbo he writes.At least FLL does not take personal shots.And Skip,yup,he's Joe Friday.To both I wish a safe and happy holiday.

[Weirs guy]

I personally find MOST of FLL's post entertaining at the very least and OCCASIONALLY thought provoking. I also enjoy pitch forking baby seals, so who am I to judge.

I know some of you feel as JDeere does that if he's so unhappy here he should move, but I could make the same argument to a lot of non-voting tax payers who still vacation here despite the horrors us locals bestow on them (not picking anyone out for flaming, just convenient points to make).

Life's too short people, if FLL bothers you then use the wonderful "ignore posts from" feature that Don has magically given us.

And a Merry Christmas too all, even you FLL.

Call me old fashioned.......but if you turn every thread on the board into a RANT on politics it tends to get people angry that the forum is being spammed. I don't have a problem with FLL's foolishness in political threads.....but do I have to put up with it when I'm reviewing a thread on dental care? There are posting guidelines about this stuff

Just out of curiosity what makes FLL's hijacking of the dental thread to whine about taxes different then your hijacking of this one to whine about FLL?

[fatlazyless]

How's this for an analogy? Having lots of waterfronters in a town that's politically controlled by the resident-locals is just like having a credit card that's paid by someone else.

On our mark, ready, set & go......it's time to spend....it's always time to spend....spending is terrific when someone else is getting the bill.

It's not that new buildings aren't nice to have, it's just payn for em that's hard.

Probably this principal applies here: " Well, if he can't afford the prop taxes, then the next buyer will, plus the new guy will probably tear down the old place and spend a lot buildn a new house." And, it's true.


I could get used to that, too....ho-ho-ho...better to have than have-not....& a Merry Christmas to all!

Hope this doesn't come out sounding all sarcastic....just trying to inject a little humor here.

Because I'm not, on a regular basis, breaking the posting rules of the forum....GET IT ! Did you ever read the posting guiedlines here ? Do they mean anything to you ? Is FLL, or a regular basis, breaking the posting guidelines, or not ? I mentioned this, in this thread, because many members are tired of him spamming the forum......where should I bring it up. He never responds to other posters complaints. I expect you are going to ask all the other posters who have complained about him on this thread the same question, or are you just going to ask me, and if so, why ? Now what else do you want to know ?

[fatlazyless]

No replies to that latest article from the LaDaSun about the county tax going way up and in the word's of Bud Daignealt "taking a big hit.." Like, what else is there to say? The state passes the nursing home buck to the county, and the county can pass it to the towns.

I do not understand the quote at the end from Fran Wendleboe (R) of New Hampton who suggests that we look to get out of the nursing home business and to put the nursing homes up for sale.

Am I missing something but selling a nursing home that is kept going by the property tax....how to do? Please someone who really knows this issue......enlighten me.

''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Guys, as I recall from the dental thread, I think the point I was trying to make is that money spent on my property tax kept me from going to the dentist to get a cavity in a front tooth (incisor) repaired, and as a result it got much worse turning into a two tooth infected root canal(s) and when one root did not respond well to the dental treatment, an expensive trip to an oral surgeon was needed, as well.'

So, I guess I can say that property taxes are like dental cavities. If you do not take prpper care of them, things get bad very fast. How's that sound?

And, my $8500 prop taxes are indeed paying for the no-deductible dental insurance for the town's employees......it's enough to give one a toothache just thinking about it.

Well I do not mean to indicate that I think FLLs post are always in good humor and taste, give the guy a break. He is expressing his opinions, and is now seeming to get hammered for doing so because people don't agree with him. Like every post on this Forum, I take FLLs post for what they are, his thoughts and reactions. Nothing more Nothing less. And hey once in a while he reminds me to laugh, or even think about something from a different perspective. So give the guy a break, stop bashing Him. As it has been suggested add him to your ignore list and you will never here from him again.......

Sure......whatever. BTW, no one is bashing him. He's been asked for months, by many posters, to please post his political rants in political threads, period. That's all. He's been asked to show some simple respect to other posters. You're aware that's the issue here....right ? And that no one is going after him for posting, but for posting POLITICS everywhere.

It amazing how people only read what they want to read.......

I'm done posting in this thread......I can see where it's going. No matter how clear I, and other posters have made it that we don't object to FLL, or his postings, just as long as it does not pop up in EVERY thread on this forum. Yet people like Llforrelaxin still will get on here and say we are bashing him over the content of his posts.......which no one has done ! It's incredible.

I don't mind being attacked....I can deal with it well enough, but please try and understand the subject matter, ok ? Try and at least get the context of the complaints about his posting behavior right. FLL is not being bashed for posting. He's been asked, over & over, by a lot of members to not turn everything from dental care posts to food reviews into a political rant.

Knowing human nature.....I expect several future posts to ignore what I just said......and claim FLL is being shouted down Have at it.....I'm moving on.

[Dickie B from HB]

Based on the way that FLL responds to you, it would seem that he has you on the ignore list.

Nice shot, keep it coming. turn me into the issue. Especially since I said I would not post in the thread any longer. Turn a simple request by dozens of members of the forum into a "got you" game. Sorry for trying to abide by the rules of the forum. Oh, and please ignore the context of all the complaints, that always helps At least my guess in my "last" post that human nature would rear its ugly head was true in your case. Thanks for adding some snark. Now I'm really done with this thread

[fatlazyless]

Getting back on topic here, my post above from the Laconia Daily Sun about the increasing cost of county nursing home care is a large and looming issue. It's probably one of those issues that people just role their eyes, and let it go, because it is too much to deal with and beyond one's control

What's happening, in my opinion, is that the State can no longer keep up with county nursing home expenses so it is trying to shift the expense over to the local property tax, and it is succeeding.

This is a complicated issue. You know who is a real first class expert on this issue? It is Senator Cathy Sgambatti (D) Tilton. She looks out for the local resident-home owner-property tax payer in a way that did not exist before with the prior occupant. There is a whole world of differance between Senator Sgambatti and the former occupant of the Laconia senate district, and for this, all us struggling property tax payers should be very thankfull.


People just roll their eyes over these big issues like county-state nursing homes because it's hard to understand, but you'll know it when you get the bigger tax bills.

GOODBYE, GOODBYE

Ah yes, the nursing homes, it is the goverment's job to jump in and take care of everyone. Give us our entitlements, just make sure you tax the other guy for it. Just make sure that one particular person with a million dollars ( or close to it ) in assets doesn't have to pay for it via property taxes. After all, a million dollars isn't what it used to be. Add new taxes because we all know what a great job government does, they deserve to be rewarded. We are all entitled to an easier life, and the state had better provide it. It being free care and taxes only for the other guy. Yeah that'll work.

[fatlazyless]

Hey, 1945 was 62 years ago, so a lot of WWII people are in their 80's. They were there then when it really really mattered, so we can be here now. Don't ever forget that!

I guess that my point was if your so annoyed by FLL's hijinks's, perhaps you can understand why some of us are with you doing the same? I am not going to ask the other forum members the same question, because they seem to have let it go already. Perhaps you would be better served by expressing your issues FLL directly via IM, or even Don, and not posting, by my count, 6 times in this thread about it. After all, you wouldn't want to have your behavior compared to FLL's would you?

Now, back on topic, I can't believe that the Democrats would even touch a bill that would double the prop taxes on residential homes that are not a primary homes. Seems to me this came up a few years ago, too, and I believe that local business owners help end the shenanigans then?
