New mainers?
Guy walks into a zoo and they only have one animal, a dog. It was a Shih Tzu. What kind of zoo are you running Lewiston?
Funny, must be those electricians the City Councilor of Lewiston was speaking about. What a Booming City.
You have to hand it to the Democrats. They are great at making markets. In 20 years they turned Lewiston Maine into a thriving drug market by importing 3rd world immigrants. There will be thousands more communities like this sprinkled throughout the country because of Harris’ immigration wave.
They look stupid, ridiculous, they’re special…
A couple of Tarantula Heads in Lewiston , Perfect Embrace the Ghetto Culture ” Dirty Lew ” ! I am old enough to remember when the White Men of Lewiston would have “Cured” this problem , Now just a bunch of Whiggers .
Deqa Dhalac and RTR will undoubtedly call you a racist for objecting to the “cultural enrichment” we’re experiencing from the likes of these outstanding New Mainers.
Quality citizens we have here . Make room in the state prison , here come two more . We feed them and house them and this is the thanks we get . WTF are the democrats in Augusta doing ? They are ruining our state all in the name of “ diversity “ . Clear the streets of trash like this !
anyone so stupid that their first and last name have to match has no right to live…
This pair of Mills’ New Mainers are a real asset to the state.
Maybe this is part of their culture, and we need to be more culturally sensitive.
Imo, we need to increase the fines and jail time for all classes of crime. If this is considered a class D crime, the max fine is $2K and jail time max is 364 days. No wonder drug dealers don’t care, it’s a slap on the wrist and they’re out. At least bail is set very high for these two, as long as, what’s her name?, oh yeah, Judge Sarah Churchill, isn’t sitting on the bench.
Did these two check in with the office of “New Maine Citizens”? It’s just drugs and weapons, the DA’s office will have them back on the streets in no time!
Two local brothers? AYFKM?
Will Portland Press Herald commit two pages of their achievements?
