Ah, the ruffle of taffeta and the preening prance of typing with a discernible lisp of effete and effeminate effrontery can only mean Forbes is in the house once again seeking out JustFreedManMe's minuscule scepter to validate their co-rule of the clueless conservative cadre.

This makes me crazy too.

Former Town Official Gets Five Years’ Probation For Stealing $460K In Quarters

What should make you crazy is a news story that says paying back $124,000 over five years is "almost half" of $460,000.

Either the reporter doesn't know what "half" means or some other fine or penalty was left out of the story.
How do you know what is true without doing more homework on your own? (Which makes reading the story was a waste of your time.)

As to paying back all the money, which he can't do and wouldn't have to do in prison, five years in prison would cost the town something like $250,000, so not only would they lose the $460k, but they would lose an additional chunk for prison costs that is "almost half" of what was stolen, a total of around $710,000.

As a small town, would you rather lose $326k or $710k? Maybe it isn't such a bad deal.
Why should his penalty be any worse than all the big investment banks and mortgage brokers who swindled the country out of billions and no one went to prison. This guy is small potatoes.
Get mad at the big banks where the real thievery happened (happens.)

Clownhicker was already crazy, so no exogenous factor could be blamed.

Even Clownhicker's obesity is exogenous.

Clownkicker-what makes me crazy is the fact that this elected official only gets probation and he has to pay back only a portion of what he stole. What would the penalty for us be if we stole that much money. Is there a recall started for this judge yet?

[Clownkicker]

Obviously johnforbes lacks the education and life experience to discuss anything at all.

In other words, he's got nothing intelligent to say, as always.

As the smartest kid in johnforbes' class sagely said, "johnforbes is stupid."

[johnforbes]

In my high school, there was this kid named "Tim."

Everybody was stupid compared to him.

He left in 10th grade and went to Carnegie Mellon. No idea what happened to him, but he was astonishingly bright, particularly in math and biology and chemistry. Others, including me, would start thinking about what the answer might be but he would know it almost instantly.

I should try to Google him and see what happened to him.

[Clownkicker]

So if "Tim" was that smart, he was probably right when he said you are stupid.

[johnforbes]

We all reside on a spectrum.

Tim was considerably smarter than the other kids in my high school.

Einstein was also much smarter than me, or anybody else pretty much.

On the other hand, Clownhicker is brighter than pond scum.

Not by much, but still let's be positive.

[Clownkicker]

I'm positive johnforbes is stupid.

[johnforbes]

The typical car battery is no more bipolar than Clownhick.

[Clownkicker]

I'm positive johnforbes is a stupid fuck.
