Did anyone attend the protests in Williamson Park? I did and I was ashamed of both sides. No one is willing to try and find real solutions. Both sides just want complete surrender from the other side.
On fields where the baseball games should have been played we had mounted police and alleged adults acting like children but with real guns.
Take the costs of yesterday's police response to the protest, split it in half and send a bill to each group. Your actions have real life consequences.
That's a fair point the first poster has. Can Morrisville legally bill the groups for the extra costs? Like any good agent, the bill should also have a 20% markup as a profit for the boro.
Was the baseball concession stand open? This could be a way to turn all this ugliness to a profit for the boro.
This BCCT article has a video link with some coverage of the rally. I wasn't there, but on the video it doesn't look like there was a heavy police presence. I heard there was though, but it must have been mostly non-Morrisville PD. Mounted police and state troopers. About 8 secs. in, there's about 3 secs. of video of a single Morrisville PD SUV. It appears empty, though the windshield wipers swipe once. I'd say the wipers on are an intermittent setting. That's all I got. Happy Mother's Day!

I attended and I think this is not entirely correct. On one side were peaceniks who want universal background checks, which isn't that crazy of an idea. On the other side were crazy gun fetishists who are apparently so threatened by the idea of background checks they felt the need to bring machine guns to a public park. THEY were the reason for all the police, not the peace people. This is a false equivalence-that the groups are somehow equal and equally to blame. These gun people were absolutely obnoxious and so scared of not being able to get a machine RIGHT NOW that they felt the need to shout into little old ladies faces. The only time they shut up was when a moment of silence was observed and during the pledge of allegiance.They made horrible remarks to a woman whose child was murdered and used a megaphone to drown out the speakers. Also in attendance.....everybody's favorite puppeteer....Jane Burger. Standing with a group that calls for arming teachers.
Assclowns! The lot of them. All this fuss, and not a damn thing was accomplished, except a bunch of kids couldn't play their games, and the "newspeople" had something at which to point their cameras and get their soundbites.

Yeah..if by "complete surrender" you mean universal background checks you are correct. Is that SO much to ask? That's all the peaceniks wanted. What is the harm in that? But the "other side" that you somehow think has a leg to stand on...wants ANYONE to be able to buy ANY GUN, ANYTIME, as many times as they want. And if you really attended, tell me what the peacers were shouting at the gun fetishists....You can't, because they were pretty well behaved. THEY weren't getting up in people's faces-they pretty much just stood there taking abuse from armed rednecks. You're saying that the peace people ...whose most potent weapon on display were some humorous signs...are the same as the people who brought automatic weapons and shotguns to Williamson Park. Not the same. Not equivalent. At all. This false equivalence bullshit neeeds to stop. One side is right .One side is wrong.

MORRISVILLE -- Borough police reported two robberies — one involving men with shotguns — and an attempted robbery since Wednesday.
Police released few details about the alleged crimes on Monday and provided no description of suspects involved.
The first incident reportedly occurred Wednesday around 3:30 p.m. when two men wearing hoodies and carrying shotguns knocked on a door at a home and when the resident answered they demanded money, according to a news release.
The men entered the home and went through drawers looking for jewelry and money, police said. They allegedly stole a $200 cell phone.
Police did not release the street where the home invasion occurred.
A woman walking on West Bridge Street near a doughnut shop Friday at 9:30 a.m. was punched several times in the face in an attempt to steal her purse, police said. The suspect was last seen running through the Mill Pond Shopping Center.
Another robbery occurred Monday around 11:15 a.m. when police say a man, who was panhandling in a parking lot on East Bridge Street, pulled out a knife and demanded a man hand over all his money. The man offered the suspect $1. The man, who was unharmed, had an undetermined amount of money taken
With the nicer weather, people are opening windows to let in some fresh air. Police are cautioning people to keep them locked. My neighbor was just robbed of cash and jewelry. The thieves entered through an unlocked second floor window.
We have added a new candidate to Sunday's driveway meet n greet. Dave Rivella, candidate for Mayor. Multiple candidates, one place, one hour, Sunday May 19, 4-5 pm. have questions, put Yeh face to the sign, stop by 109 Grandview ave.
Hey Morrisville's finest catch all of the loiterers and petty drug users, and even sometimes manage to pick up a shoplifter or two from the dollar store or Giant. Do you really think it's reasonable they would actually take any steps to stop real crime? Even the recent heroin bust at the smoke shop was makefield cops. It seems to me they must just hang around the 7-11 at bridge street and pick off scruffy looking people for petty offenses. Perhaps that is the limit of their capabilities. Maybe we should ask Makefield to take over and disband the lot of them.
I have asked around and no one is giving any information on where this the robbery involving shotguns took place. I think that as residents of Morrisville, we have the right to know where this happened. We should be made aware so that we can keep our eyes and ears open. Usually anything that happens in our small borough comes out if you just pay attention. I was told that since the Mayor oversees the police, that might be where we should go for information. So people of Morrisville, pick up your phones and start dialing to the information that you are intitled to.

Anyone surprised that the Boro will now be sued by the gun lobby?
The cheapest and easiest way out of the suit is to repeal the ordinance. It is obviously not legal, as the State Police made clear, but hey, keep defending the supposed leadership of the town. How are they to know the law?
The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. Good thing it's always possible to tell with 100% accuracy who the good guys and the bad guys are.
Good guy vs. bad guy identification is easy. The bad guy is on the ground. 100% of the time. It may take some time to get around to the correct bad guy, but he will go down. Shoot first, wildly, and rapidly. It's your GOD GIVEN right to arm bears, or something like that.
"I just found out that the gun nutzis who came to Morrisville to disrupt Saturday are now suing Morrisville"
Is this just a campaign time whisper down the lane type of thing or is there actual public information on this. I have looked for more information on this statement but cannot find any.

God, I admire them. They represent the true keepers of the flame of Liberty, which can only be extinguished by tyrannical government bureaucrats hell bent on keeping douchebags with guns out of local parks.
Does the guy up thread not recognize Inigo Montoya?
You killed his father...prepare to die.
Well hand guns are made for killin' They ain't no good for nothin' else And if you like to drink your whiskey You might even shoot yourself So why don't we dump 'em people To the bottom of the sea Before some ole fool come around here Wanna shoot either you or me
Mr.Saturday night special Got a barrel that's blue and cold Ain't no good for nothin' But put a man six feet in a hole
Well, you serve me and I'll serve you Swing your partners, all get screwed Bring your lawyer and I'll bring mine Get together, and we could have a bad time.
"Well, would it be possible to sue you people?" "Sue me? Why would you sue me? What are talking about?" "Punitive damages." "Yeah, but why would you sue me?" "I don't know, sue everybody!"
Sue them all. I'm tired of the interfering nanny liberal government we have. There's rules about smoking in the park, owning guns, preference for unions and all sorts of ridiculous things that do not bring one fricking job to Morrisville.
Hmmmmm. Not so long ago, some guy from private industry tried to bring jobs to Morrisville. He was more or less told to go pound sand, probably by you and your friends. Go figure. Down with everyone and everything.
Unstable condition, A symptom of life, Of mental and environmental change. Atmosphereic disturbance, The feverish flux Of human interface and interchange.
The impulse is pure; Sometimes our circuits get shorted By external interference. Signals get crossed And the balance distorted By internal incoherence.
A tired mind become a shape shifter, Everybody need a mood lifter, Everybody need reverse polarity. Everybody got mixed feelings About the function and the form. Everybody got to elevate from the norm.
An ounce of perception, A pound of obscure. Process information at half speed. Pause, rewind, replay, Warm memory chip, Random sample, hold the one you need.
Leave out the fiction, The fact is, this friction Will only be won by persistence. Leave out conditions, Courageous convictions Will drag the dream into existence.
A tired mind become a shape shifter, Everybody need a soft filter, Everybody need reverse polarity. Everybody got mixed feelings About the function and the form. Everybody got to elevate from the norm...
Little League and gun rally should never be in the same sentence.
Shame on you, Kathy Leary of the Peace Coalition, for "not realizing" there would be baseball games taking place on a Saturday in the middle of baseball season on Morrisville's baseball fields.
Really?
There are a lot more things these kids should be thinking of, like "Am I going to hit one out today?" or "I hope we finally win one." Not, "Why aren't they letting us play?"
The gun toters must be laughing their butts off about how much blame and vitriol are being placed on the peaceniks and how little on them. You know, the ones who couldn't find a high road to save their lives and just had to counter protest and bring firearms to the park.
Bottom line, IMHO, is that everyone involved, except the little league, acted like dicks in this matter.
This side, that side. All I saw was finger-pointing, shouting and general bad behavior. Nice lesson for the kids.
Y'all suck!!!
And I am not a "think of the children" spouter usually, but in this case, both sides put their need to express their myopic and unbending, unending arguments over anyone else's.
More like Some Y'all Suck. Unfortunately it makes even the non-Sucky ones around them look Sucky. hard lesson but some bad apples do spoil the whole bunch, girl.
What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach. So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it. I don't like it any more than you men.
Did everyone who was @ the rally see EDDY RENDELL get his photo op with the Concern Gun Owners of America? By the way the taxpayers pay for the park so why do the residents have to pay a fee with conditions?
Generally it's pretty much the same people following this blog on a regular basis. Even though most are anonymous, it's pretty much known who some posters are by their writing style.
To the poster directly above. We get it, you're campaigning. Your writing style is exactly what most of in town are tired of. Your negativity tells everyone what your agenda is, we get it. You aren't a regular on here, which is fine, it's open to everyone. But your negativity tells everyone what your agenda is and it's pretty much the direction not too many people in town want to go back to.
We get it, but I kind of think you may be wasting your time with this crowd. Over the years, they have been through many campaigns & heard just about every everything our town obstructionists can fabricate. Over the years, whisper down the lane to the naive handful of residents who haven't heard the game before has proven to be more successful than turning people off with negativity on this blog.

Associated Press |
Gov. Tom Corbett got a cool reception when he addressed a central Pennsylvania university's graduating class.
The (Harrisburg) Patriot-News ( http://bit.ly/19M1nV0) says the that when the governor stepped to the microphone Saturday at the Millersville University ceremony, about a dozen students turned their chairs away from the stage.
About half of the faculty members wore yellow pins saying "I support public education," and a few also turned their chairs away.
A black armband protest that had been discussed on campus failed to materialize.
Some students and faculty members had objected to Corbett's appearance, citing proposed cuts in funding for state universities.
Patty Garner, of Hanover, who graduated with a history degree, said she had hoped to pay for her education with federal loans but was forced to take out private loans.
"It's important not just to me, but to my parents, who both work full time and provide a lot of support for me," Garner said.
Colleen Abrams, a social work major from New Jersey, said she was disappointed that Corbett had been invited.
"I just feel like he didn't support state funding for education," said.
Others, however, said anyone bothered by the governor just shouldn't listen _ and really, most people wouldn't anyway.
"It's not a big deal," said Michael Carpenter, a business administration major from West Chester. "You're not going to remember in 10 years who you're commencement speaker is. It's not Oprah. It's not Seth MacFarlane."
Corbett told the audience that their real education was just beginning.
"Success is less about genius than it is about effort," he said. "This university taught you, but, more importantly, it made you a particular kind of person: curious, ambitious, impatient and ready to play a role in the larger world."
The closest he came to alluding to the funding issue came in a story about how Thomas Edison lost millions of his own money creating a process for extracting iron ore.
"Now mind you, it was his own money he was spending, not somebody else's," Corbett said. "It's easy to spend somebody else's money, which is a habit we have been trying to change in Harrisburg."
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose, Nothing don't mean nothing honey if it ain't free, now now. And feeling good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues, You know feeling good was good enough for me, Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee.
Someone thinks their clever, what? Don't leave us hanging like that!!
And yes, it is childish, as are most politics in Morrisville. Get off your high horse, and while you are at it, check the difference between there, they're and their.

Weather aside, it turns out the kids could have played their games. The 2 groups were too engrossed with each other to bother with anyone else.
Sounds familiar.

Good article Jon, thank you.

Angry Pennsylvanians clinging to guns and shouting at senior citizens.
Scared Pennsylvanians wearing guns, some multiple, waving crudely lettered signs, screaming for teachers to be armed.
Jane Burger holding a sign that said something about protecting childern, while standing with the arm the teachers shouters.
Pathetic

Yeah..if by "complete surrender" you mean universal background checks you are correct. Is that SO much to ask? That's all the peaceniks wanted. What is the harm in that?
But the "other side" that you somehow think has a leg to stand on...wants ANYONE to be able to buy ANY GUN, ANYTIME, as many times as they want.
And if you really attended, tell me what the peacers were shouting at the gun fetishists....You can't, because they were pretty well behaved. THEY weren't getting up in people's faces-they pretty much just stood there taking abuse from armed rednecks.
You're saying that the peace people ...whose most potent weapon on display were some humorous signs...are the same as the people who brought automatic weapons and shotguns to Williamson Park. Not the same. Not equivalent. At all.

We have added a new candidate to Sunday's driveway meet n greet. Dave Rivella, candidate for Mayor. Multiple candidates, one place, one hour, Sunday May 19, 4-5 pm. have questions, put Yeh face to the sign, stop by 109 Grandview ave.
What are the police and the mayor and council doing about that crime list?
Hey Morrisville's finest catch all of the loiterers and petty drug users, and even sometimes manage to pick up a shoplifter or two from the dollar store or Giant. Do you really think it's reasonable they would actually take any steps to stop real crime? Even the recent heroin bust at the smoke shop was makefield cops. It seems to me they must just hang around the 7-11 at bridge street and pick off scruffy looking people for petty offenses. Perhaps that is the limit of their capabilities. Maybe we should ask Makefield to take over and disband the lot of them.
That kind of consolidation makes a lot of sense. Would LMT be up for it? Somehow I don't think so.
I have asked around and no one is giving any information on where this the robbery involving shotguns took place. I think that as residents of Morrisville, we have the right to know where this happened. We should be made aware so that we can keep our eyes and ears open. Usually anything that happens in our small borough comes out if you just pay attention. I was told that since the Mayor oversees the police, that might be where we should go for information.

I just found out that the gun nutzis who came to Morrisville to disrupt Saturday are now suing Morrisville for the anti-gun ordinance.

Don't bad guys always wear masks and striped shirts?
No?
Damn you "A Christmas Story" and your lies!!!
Sorry, the good guy/bad guy gave me a mental image of Ralphie's dream and felt compelled to share it.
If they are suing, be sure to tell them to bring their shoes and their glasses....so that they have them. Sue you..Sue everybody!!
We, the gun rights movement, have suffered some of the most egregious injustices ever perpetrated in the history of the U.S.A.
Only through continuous struggle can we achieve the rights we have been denied for so long.
We shall overcome.

God, I admire them. They represent the true keepers of the flame of Liberty, which can only be extinguished by tyrannical government bureaucrats hell bent on keeping douchebags with guns out of local parks.
Is the tree of liberty about to get watered?
Does the guy up thread not recognize Inigo Montoya?
You killed his father...prepare to die.
Well hand guns are made for killin'
They ain't no good for nothin' else
And if you like to drink your whiskey
You might even shoot yourself
So why don't we dump 'em people
To the bottom of the sea
Before some ole fool come around here
Wanna shoot either you or me
Mr.Saturday night special
Got a barrel that's blue and cold
Ain't no good for nothin'
But put a man six feet in a hole
Well, you serve me and I'll serve you
Swing your partners, all get screwed
Bring your lawyer and I'll bring mine
Get together, and we could have a bad time.
"Well, would it be possible to sue you people?"
"Sue me? Why would you sue me? What are talking about?"
"Punitive damages."
"Yeah, but why would you sue me?"
"I don't know, sue everybody!"
Sue them all. I'm tired of the interfering nanny liberal government we have. There's rules about smoking in the park, owning guns, preference for unions and all sorts of ridiculous things that do not bring one fricking job to Morrisville.
Hmmmmm. Not so long ago, some guy from private industry tried to bring jobs to Morrisville. He was more or less told to go pound sand, probably by you and your friends. Go figure. Down with everyone and everything.
Oh well that was different, you see there was .......... blah blah blah ....... ah, go soak yer head you phony shapeshifter!
Unstable condition,
A symptom of life,
Of mental and environmental change.
Atmosphereic disturbance,
The feverish flux
Of human interface and interchange.
The impulse is pure;
Sometimes our circuits get shorted
By external interference.
Signals get crossed
And the balance distorted
By internal incoherence.
A tired mind become a shape shifter,
Everybody need a mood lifter,
Everybody need reverse polarity.
Everybody got mixed feelings
About the function and the form.
Everybody got to elevate from the norm.
An ounce of perception,
A pound of obscure.
Process information at half speed.
Pause, rewind, replay,
Warm memory chip,
Random sample, hold the one you need.
Leave out the fiction,
The fact is, this friction
Will only be won by persistence.
Leave out conditions,
Courageous convictions
Will drag the dream into existence.
A tired mind become a shape shifter,
Everybody need a soft filter,
Everybody need reverse polarity.
Everybody got mixed feelings
About the function and the form.
Everybody got to elevate from the norm...

Too much in one sentence
Posted: Friday, May 17, 2013 12:15 am
Little League and gun rally should never be in the same sentence.
Shame on you, Kathy Leary of the Peace Coalition, for "not realizing" there would be baseball games taking place on a Saturday in the middle of baseball season on Morrisville's baseball fields.
Really?
There are a lot more things these kids should be thinking of, like "Am I going to hit one out today?" or "I hope we finally win one." Not, "Why aren't they letting us play?"

The gun toters must be laughing their butts off about how much blame and vitriol are being placed on the peaceniks and how little on them. You know, the ones who couldn't find a high road to save their lives and just had to counter protest and bring firearms to the park.
Recommendation to aggrieved Little Leaguers: sue.
Play ball! Hardball. It's the American Way.
I'm pretty sure America still leads the world in manufacturing outrage.
Bottom line, IMHO, is that everyone involved, except the little league, acted like dicks in this matter.
This side, that side. All I saw was finger-pointing, shouting and general bad behavior. Nice lesson for the kids.
Y'all suck!!!
And I am not a "think of the children" spouter usually, but in this case, both sides put their need to express their myopic and unbending, unending arguments over anyone else's.
I say it again, Y'all suck!!!
Throw in a dash of Y'all Suck for the pissy self-centered little league parents too. It's not all about you or your kids either.
More like Some Y'all Suck. Unfortunately it makes even the non-Sucky ones around them look Sucky. hard lesson but some bad apples do spoil the whole bunch, girl.
What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach. So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it. I don't like it any more than you men.
Why'd you have to say 50, Luke?
Boss: Sorry, Luke. I'm just doing my job. You gotta appreciate that.
Luke: Nah - calling it your job don't make it right, Boss.
Did everyone who was @ the rally see EDDY RENDELL get his photo op with the Concern Gun Owners of America? By the way the taxpayers pay for the park so why do
the residents have to pay a fee with conditions?
This is an official update:.....At no time was the council of Morrisville Borough aware of what the Morrisville Borough council was doing.
Please, explain exactly what you wanted Boro council to do in this particular instance.
Generally it's pretty much the same people following this blog on a regular basis. Even though most are anonymous, it's pretty much known who some posters are by their writing style.
To the poster directly above. We get it, you're campaigning. Your writing style is exactly what most of in town are tired of. Your negativity tells everyone what your agenda is, we get it. You aren't a regular on here, which is fine, it's open to everyone. But your negativity tells everyone what your agenda is and it's pretty much the direction not too many people in town want to go back to.
We get it, but I kind of think you may be wasting your time with this crowd. Over the years, they have been through many campaigns & heard just about every everything our town obstructionists can fabricate. Over the years, whisper down the lane to the naive handful of residents who haven't heard the game before has proven to be more successful than turning people off with negativity on this blog.
"Please, explain exactly what you wanted Boro council to do in this particular instance"
Sorry about that, you got this in while I was typing : )
"This is an official update:.....At no time was the council of Morrisville Borough aware of what the Morrisville Borough council was doing."
Someone thinks their clever?
Seems kind of childish.
Typical Morrisville obstructionists, don't even try to win something honestly, just go right for the deceitful tactics.
Removing political signs is illegal, and when removing them from private property the crime includes trespass.
Just putting it out there nicely.
Don't steal. It's one of the 10 Commandments that God inscribed onto 2 stone tablets and gave to Moses on Mount Sinai.
Bottom line: Freedom isn't free.

Corbett gets cool reception at Pa. graduation
Posted: Saturday, May 18, 2013 4:07 pm | Updated: 6:02 pm, Sat May 18, 2013.
Associated Press |
Gov. Tom Corbett got a cool reception when he addressed a central Pennsylvania university's graduating class.
The (Harrisburg) Patriot-News ( http://bit.ly/19M1nV0) says the that when the governor stepped to the microphone Saturday at the Millersville University ceremony, about a dozen students turned their chairs away from the stage.
About half of the faculty members wore yellow pins saying "I support public education," and a few also turned their chairs away.
A black armband protest that had been discussed on campus failed to materialize.
Some students and faculty members had objected to Corbett's appearance, citing proposed cuts in funding for state universities.
Patty Garner, of Hanover, who graduated with a history degree, said she had hoped to pay for her education with federal loans but was forced to take out private loans.
"It's important not just to me, but to my parents, who both work full time and provide a lot of support for me," Garner said.
Colleen Abrams, a social work major from New Jersey, said she was disappointed that Corbett had been invited.
"I just feel like he didn't support state funding for education," said.
Others, however, said anyone bothered by the governor just shouldn't listen _ and really, most people wouldn't anyway.
"It's not a big deal," said Michael Carpenter, a business administration major from West Chester. "You're not going to remember in 10 years who you're commencement speaker is. It's not Oprah. It's not Seth MacFarlane."
Corbett told the audience that their real education was just beginning.
"Success is less about genius than it is about effort," he said. "This university taught you, but, more importantly, it made you a particular kind of person: curious, ambitious, impatient and ready to play a role in the larger world."
The closest he came to alluding to the funding issue came in a story about how Thomas Edison lost millions of his own money creating a process for extracting iron ore.
"Now mind you, it was his own money he was spending, not somebody else's," Corbett said. "It's easy to spend somebody else's money, which is a habit we have been trying to change in Harrisburg."

Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose,
Nothing don't mean nothing honey if it ain't free, now now.
And feeling good was easy, Lord, when he sang the blues,
You know feeling good was good enough for me,
Good enough for me and my Bobby McGee.
"Someone thinks their clever?"
Someone thinks their clever, what? Don't leave us hanging like that!!
And yes, it is childish, as are most politics in Morrisville. Get off your high horse, and while you are at it, check the difference between there, they're and their.
Grammar Nazi strikes again. Wait, did I just Godwin this?
