The Great Turf Scam Vote Is TODAY
Posted by: Turf Scam Expositor ()

Today is the day that the Board of Supervisors votes on the school board's deceptive, fraudulent SCAM plan to get money to pay for artificial turf.

Oppose this. It is a bad idea, and the school board has already shortchanged science education to pay for part of it. Their plan needs to die.

Let your county supervisor and chairman Sharon Bulova know. Also let your school board member, and the members-at-large know that you don't appreciate being hustled by the likes of Ryan McElveen and Tammy Kaufax.

OP offers no evidence that turf is taking away money from science education.

Money for science books was cancelled, then, about half an hour later in the same school board working session, the same amount of money was allocated for turf.

Go back to your Miley Cyrus video.

Turf fields are happening. Nothing you can do about it.

A simple act of vandalism costs $100,000 to repair. Where will that money come from?

Maintenance is VERY expensive. Where will that money come from?

Unusable fields means no sports. Jocks and boosters can go to the bus and bang in consolation.

Call your school board member or one of the members at large. They will send you the working notes from the session where the science books got voted down and the turf was approved. If you can't put the effort in to do that, you can go fuck yourself.

As far as Miley Cyrus, don't make us all laugh, you spend your whole life fixating on her.

You clearly failed at becoming educated.

It is called insurance.

User fees, tax revenue, other general revenue, non-profit organizations that see the value in organized sports.

Or they can just go join the Adam Lanza's, Seung-Hui Cho's, Eric Harris', Dylan Klebold's of the world. None of them participated in sports either.

You don't really get how this works. I am not the one making an un-sourced allegation. There is no burden on me to prove anything.

Says the tool that has mentioned it in two consecutive posts. Project much?

> You clearly failed at becoming educated.

You aren't contending that you are actually educated, are you? I bet you are a product of the FCPS.

It isn't a scam. The OP merely opposes the project.

I listened to part of the feed on CH 13 but it kept cutting off.

They talked forever about giving employees a $500 bonus--of course they were all in favor of that.

Gotta love the details.

That would be $500 AFTER TAXES--Bulova happens to mention.

Just state how much it costs the taxpayers ok?

Asking the county to stop spending is like asking Rosie Odonnell to stop eating.

Thank the heavens Cook got his $350k so cops can write more speeding tickets.

Wish there was a spped trap last night on rolling rd at about 9pm when a cop car WITHOUT LIGHTS ON was doing about 50 in a 30.

Let's hope the rules apply to them as well.
