Meanwhile….the “governor’s” State Police are hard at work, hidden away in the bushes, waiting for those dangerous Maine people driving their cars with an expired inspection sticker !! Our esteemed “governor” Millstone could unleash an army on these Chinese terrorists, yet she chooses not to. Hmmm ? I wonder why that is ?
There has to be a number of politicians in Maine, putting money from this into their campaign funds, and side tracked to their pockets, to make the law keep away from these guys. These are major criminal operations yet the cops stick to minor crimes like 6 mph over the limit. They had ample knowledge of the Lewiston shooter before hand, but chose to sit on their backsides while until the inevitable happened. Who’s side are our crime fighters in Maine really on? The Electrician bragged in these pages the other day how he was proud to be helping these guys. How much of that ill gotten $$$$ has been going into his pockets? Isn’t stealing electricity from CMP a major crime. He would have bragged if he had been working for the mafia. Maybe he was….working for the Chinese version of the mafia as he bragged.
I love people who want to in business, especially small
business. Do it legally, want grow pot, get a license. Don’t like the laws or process? Vote in Representatives that have your way thinking. Welcome to America.
With all the Chinese Nationals crossing into the country at the southern “border” in conjunction with illegal marijuana growing operations in Maine, we have the possibility of bioweapon labs thrown into the mix. Thank you OBiden, Mills and all the open border Marxists in your administrations.
