The mayor of the largest city in Maine’s southernmost county was recently allowed by a Biddeford news outlet to extol all his “successes.”
Then just days later a competing outlet, the Biddeford Buzz, published a piece of reality – that the mill city is by all appearances a drug-infested cesspool.
The Buzz ran a story about a downtown business that is finding used hypodermic needles in its mailbox.
So is Democrat Mayor Liam LaFountain selling a fraudulent alternate reality?
From all appearances the answer is a resounding yes.
While the mayor was telling everyone what a great job he was doing, the owner of the business was putting a note on the outside of his mailbox telling people not to leave their needles behind.
“When employees went to check the mail, in addition to those pesky unwanted bills, the employees were also greeted with uncovered used needles,” wrote Buzz editor Joshua Wolfe.
“Yes, you read that correctly,” Wolfe said – “uncovered used needles in their mailbox.”
LaFountain spent ten minutes at a recent council meeting outlining what a great job he was doing in his first term as mayor.
He also boasted (aka complained) about how much time city councilors spend in meetings trying to improve taxpayers’ lives.
With 18 months to go in his two-year term, maybe the mayor can inject himself with a dose of reality.
But hopefully he won’t leave the used needle in a mailbox along Main Street.
This needle BS is making Mainers look like we’re all needle poppers.
If these needles are free and there’s millions of them ….who wouldn’t expect to find them everywhere .
This doesn’t sound like it should be hard to understand .
I guess for some people it is .
Time to wake up folks . YOU made this a problem .
Time to fix it .
Elect Bobby Charles …the drug problem here in Maine will be resolved quickly .
Im def voting for Bobby Charles, because I want a republican Governor again to possibly clean up all this MESS democrats have made of our once beautiful state. But, and thats a very BIG but, even though Bobby SAYS he will do things……Until I actually see people with handcuffs on that caused all this, (includes city/town leaders) along with other politicians involved in fraud etc, I wont believe any of what he says now. I want to factually SEE his actions, not just hear his words. People make all kinds of promises solely to get into power, its what they do or do NOT do after they gain power is most telling.
The Iran leader would clean up the needle problem and the Speaker also.
