I understand where your coming from. I'm also not a big fan of cops. Once I was driving down 11400 near where the district is now. There was a car with two girls ( in their 20's ) driving below the speed limit. I was right behind them and I then started to drive pass them. But as I did they started to speed up so that way I wasn't get in front of them ( The road is a one lane both ways ) I had to get back over since I was on the wrong lane. They then let me pass, but not without her flipping me off. Anyways I guess they call the police on me and got my plates. Later the police track me down and wrote me up a ticket for wreak less driving. It was bullshit and I was pissed. The stupid bitch made up a story and I got stock with a ticket, plus I had then on my Inc. for the next three year. Believe me when I say you do not want to have a wreak less driving on your auto inc. With that I went from paying about $150.00 per month to over $300.00 per month. for the next few years. :hell: Stupid horny cops only believe her since she's a girl with boobs. :koko: Sorry if this is off topic, but I just wanted to let MetroFanatic know that he's wasn't the only one who got screwed by cops. |

I have to agree most cops are arrogant pompous jerkoffs.. that being said ther are also good cops that actually do their jobs lawfully with honor. Most of your old timer cops are professonal and reasonable. Seems to me most younger cops could give a shit less about humanity and reason.
The whole tasering thing, I am very against. Alot of people are killed by "non lethal" tasers. Alot of people didnt deserve to be tasered in the first place. The country's police force is turning into a military more and more every year. I really feel sick thinking about how it's gonna be in the future. I relize police go through alot of serious things, but the way things are going the police will be telling us when to be home and how to live. sorry for the rant just my 2 cents. |
53 and 1-15

I think it looks really good Quote:

Awesome!!! I notice this a few months ago, but later thought that it was just going to be a parking lot. This is great news. I hope this new building will look different then the other building next to it. :tup: |
Just an idea...
I know I'm going to be shot down like a kite in a lightning storm, but I was thinking that maybe Sandy could try some underground roads to help with future congestion :shrug:
I remember in Chicago, they have 3-level roads and even freeways that go underground. Not that Sandy could ever be anything like Chicago - it's just the concept I was pondering about. Maybe they could put I-15 under ground from 90th - 106th South and put some surface streets and buildings over it. They could even toss in some underground through streets in down town to help ease congestion. I know that the project in Lehi is going to have most of its roads underground - maybe the Proscemium could try something similar :shrug: Just a thought. PS: Before I get any bitter opposition, just remember that this is what urban planners do - through out ideas onto the table and brainstorm solutions to problems. Then, the ideas that stand up to the basic law of cost vs utility and get funding and support make it onto the drawing boards. |
^^^ The big problem with that right now is that there is not even a fraction of enough tax base to cover a project like that... even downtown SLC probably couldn't afford to do something like that.

Sandy definitely has a problem with pedestrian accessibility. Sandy is just not a safe place for a pedestrian. Shouldn't people come before machines? I feel like I'm on Battlestar Galactica and cars are cylons (machines created by the humans that rebelled and are now trying to take over, even if it means extermination). It's like they're spreading us out thin, so they can divide and conquer. :twoguns:

Economist optimistic about Utah
http://deseretnews.com/article/1,5143,705284210,00.html ...the point is that at some point in 2011 or 2012, we're going to be back to that pent-up demand shooting out the other side of the strong economic growth and housing activity and so on," ... ...Despite the downturn, Utah is swamped with companies considering expansions or relocations, Perry said. "In terms of business recruitment, which is part of our office, we have never been busier," Perry told the committee, adding that 120 companies are interested in relocating operations to Utah or expanding their existing activities in the state.
