Subject: Re: waterfront cost? Author: Anonymous [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 18:34:47 10/25/03 Sat In reply to: Josh 's message, "Re: waterfront cost?" on 09:51:02 10/25/03 Sat Until the village government changes this will continue. It has continued for years and years. Since all the parties of policial stand in the village do the same old thing year after year nothing will get better.They like scapegoats. They fight among each other. There is so much hate going on how can anything run well? Maybe the Town of Hempstead is not better but at least there would be new life. The group that runs the village is old and on it's way out. They don't listen and they don't care. They only do for them and their friends and people with money. When people start to run against them the people running get their fences and cars trashed. It is the way of the white trash. It is not white pride it is white shame. The litter is mounting here by the docks no one cleans it and no one puts out trash cans. One of the benches up on Main St.had the same trash on it for over a week until someone cleaned it up. All the people who think this place will change need to wake up and look. Very few people walked down the streets here and look and see. The street sweeper that cleans Main St is from the Town of Hempstead. The one from the village does not clean very well. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

What I strongly disagree with you on is when you say the Village should allow our sovereignty to be usurped by the Town of Hempstead. "Since all the parties of policial stand in the village do the same old thing year after year nothing will get better." Have you heard about the Village Pride Party? So far, I have not been to any meetings, but I am very interested in the possibilities of an opposition to the Unity Party. Morgan, you say that the "good ole boys" have been in charge for years, but at the same time you claim that you were chummy enough with an ex mayor that he would call you from his death bed. "My reason for stating that the Town should take over is because unlike Rockville Centre or Lynbrook, East Rockaway is a small town where everybody knows everybody and if you are not friends of the Village board members or the DPW or the Fire Department, then you don't count" I think you need to speak with more people from Lynbrook & RVC. You will find that back-scratching is prevalent in every American community to some degree. As for the KKK comments, they are pure madness. Is there racism in East Rockaway? Absolutely. Is it within the realm of possibility that members of the Village government may harbor prejudices? Of course. But the KKK? Let's grow up, shall we? "If you go to the meetings and talk to different people around the Village, you will see that many people are not happy with the way the Village is run." I happen to be among those who feel there should be swift changes in ER government. However, I happen to feel that the best way to achieve that is through internal means, not by ceding power to the Town of Hempstead. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Look for the skin head hair cuts. This KKK has blended with the neo nazis. Wake up and look and see what you are missing.They not even hide it that well. You just need to know what to look for.

You seem to know so much about this Village and yet you nothing of the Klan being here. They are here and if you don't believe me I am sorry for you. By not thinking they are here you are now free to go back to your dream world of the wonderful little village that could. They have been in this area for years at the docks. This is thier spot and hang out. Some have moved to the VTE since they don't like the new Duck owner. However some of the upper Klan crust still drinks there after five. That way they can listen in what people have to say. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: Re: Yes Josh the KKK is alive Author: Anonymous [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 01:37:33 10/27/03 Mon look up LI history and you will find that the KKK presented the Church of the Nazarene a flag in the 1920's and attended services there. That church is still up and running on Ocean Ave. I do believe the KKK is alive and well in ER, they are just not as obvious as they were in the 20's. Don't forget, the Village was sued for a racial remark it made to a marina owner about renting to blacks. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

It is also worth noting that that period of time is when the KKK reached their peak popularity in the United States. Do you care to name the KKK members specifically or are you just here to scare people? [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: Re: Yes Josh the KKK is alive Author: Anonymous [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 10:34:54 10/27/03 Mon you seem to like to give everybody who has a negative opinion of your "wonderland" a history lesson and what you fail to realize is that, yes, although the 1920's were the peak of the KKK, the racist ideas are still very much present in ER due to the fact that many of the residents are third and fourth generation who have lived in ER all their lives as have their descendants. I won't name names since I am sure you and the Village idiots would love to sue for slander. The intent is not to scare anybody, but you need to realize that ER is not what you have it made out to be. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Joey is right "Josh" might be one of those people who loves to sue. The KKK looks more like white shame than white pride. There has been a growth in the KKK because the leader of the pack in ER has spent many a year going to bars and getting all the scabby crack heads to sign up. The leader here is a big time drunk and can't stay out of a bar. The KKK is what is keep East Rock a crap hole. They are making East Rock into what they say thier image the blacks will do. The blacks that live here are very clean and neat and much nicer than the creepy drunken drug taking KKK. The KKK here is also blended with the neo nazi groups. Many of them have Hitler pictures up on the walls. Creepy people. These are hate groups and hate groups are cults and they do much brainwashing. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

There IS a difference between having a Confederate flag and being in the Klan. If you take a walk down Williamson Street towards Bay Park, you will see a car with a Che Guevara sticker on it. Does that mean that East Rockaway is being infiltrated by Communists? [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: Re: Yes Josh the KKK is alive Author: Anonymous [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 22:39:31 05/22/04 Sat I also find it remarkable that you are so overwhelmingly supportive of property rights in regards to destroying a building and potentially releasing asbestos into the air, but vehemently against the right of the individual to fly a Confederate flag. I am not a Confederate, nor do I condone the flag or what it represents. But if a homeowner feels compelled to hoist it, they are totally within their legal rights to do so.

Author: Anonymous [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 10:48:36 10/27/03 Mon Yes, back-scratching is in every community, but I have many friends and associates in Lynbrook and RVC and the favoritism may not be as obvious as in ER...my point being that it is a small town and many people have lived here for years, generation after generation, and that adds to the imbalance in the way the village is run.
