There are several things Albany can do to help with this crime. One, put the horse patrol back on. Two, put more police officers on the ground at night and daytime instead of sitting parked. And the city needs about a dozen motorcycle cops. The other big deal, get these street lights fixed.

While I no longer live in Albany, I do read the police reports. In many years in Albany, I lived in six different sections. Those areas are constantly in the reports. I honestly don’t remember even seeing a police car cruise through. It wasn’t necessary. I wouldn’t live in them now.

21 and counting!

Ever thought about the fact that professional baseball players stand with caps off and hand over heart during the national anthem?

NFL week 7 has come and gone and I still have not watched the first game this year. The Falcons apparently playing poorly is even more reason not to watch.

Squawker says when Benghazi happened, The Squawkbox was lit up every day blaming Hillary Clinton and Obama. Unlike Obama, Trump hasn’t blamed this on them being upset over a video. Obama and Hillary tried to cover it up.

I see several squawkers are upset about what George W. said about Trump. Sometimes the truth hurts.

Some drunk in Ohio said he wanted to take out Obama and was arrested several years ago. A congresswomen, Maxine Waters from California, says the same thing about Trump and is cheered.

Bush 43 looked better as ex-president when he kept his mouth shut. He appeared delusional in his speech against isolationism, although his policy of unnecessary meddling in the Middle East cost us over 4,000 lives, billions of dollars, and over 100,000 Iraqis killed.

Let me be specific. According to you, squawker, the biggest racist is the anti-racist that is racist against racists? That doesn’t even make sense. Look up the definition.

Had Carter gotten his second term, we might not have even have a deficit. He, like all Democratic administrations, was paying it way down. Republicans are the drunken sailors and they get elected by dog-whistling all the bigots to rally and elect one of their own.

The difference in Benghazi and Niger? Niger wasn’t being swept under the rug. In Benghazi, Obama and Hillary lied to the American people that it was about a video.

The only thing worse than the season 8 opener of “The Walking Dead” was the Atlanta Falcons’ field play in New England. They should have just gotten 11 zombies from that show and let then play on offense. They could have scored points by simply eating new England’s defense as they went down field.

Your murder rates … Lyndon Johnson’s “Great Society” program is in its third generation. What did you socialist Democrats think you would get out of this? Rocket scientists? The buzzards are coming home to roost.

Young fools today use guns to settle simple disagreements. Your life can forever change in the blink of an eye. Sometimes it takes a bigger man to walk away than it does to fight. Is someone disrespecting you worth losing your life for? Live to see another day.
