so the "sheriff's airplane" is a freebie, and the "illegal immigrant" responsible for the centreville tragedy is not so illegal after all. it troubles me that there is such misinformation and disinformation pushed forth on the forum before facts are known. makes you wonder what else is not going on, and what agendas some people have. problem with these kinds of rumors spreading is that the truth does not always spread afterwards. this is true all over, not just on this forum. sadly, there are many walking around believing things that are just not so, affecting how they think, vote, interact, etc. let's keep rumor mongering off this site.

Over the line...........you think. How about the name gwbushdumb.
And who is the one ( 1 ) that decides something is over the line. After all this is America (The Home of the Brave and the Land of the Slave)

Well moosie, you would be doing the board a favor, and perhaps put links in your posts to the latest news of these incidents.

was just reading the bay times today. i'm all for free speech, but to say, for example, that the driver of that car was an illegal immigrant just to continue one's diatribe against them just does not seem right, when it is untrue. just gets people all worked up over nothing. i'll have to find that original post.

I don't think it's planned, I think it's people who THINK they know something and want to be the first to bring it here? My thought, that's all. I don't think that there's any agendas in THAT area. Are there agendas? I sure that there are. And GW knows JUST who the one (1) is. I agree TOTALLY with the rumor mongoring comment.

An airplane being paid for by federal tax dollars cannot be considered a freebie.

I'm just curious that if you really think the feds are going to give little ole QA Sheriff a plane for free? Are they going to pay for the gas, insurance, upkeep and what about the deputies to fly around in it? Somebody has to pay for this stuff or maybe the plane comes with a credit card from the feds so they can charge all this stuff, as well.
This article was a made up bunch of crap printed by a poor excuse for a newspaper, who would never say anything bad about our sheriff, anyway. If you want facts, email or call your commissioner and ask them about it!

skywatcher, read the article. one plane is owned entirely by doj and will be paid for entirely by it, including gas. the other is owned by an organization that will bill only doj. what are you looking for, a conspiracy? things are "made up" more on this thing (by people like you) but you still trust this over the papers, right?

Hey guest, what papers do you refer to? The Sheriff owned bay times? I got news for ya, i can write a nice little fancy dancy press release and give it the chief butt kisser and say print it and guess what.....it gets printed word for word with no second thought. Yeah, real investigative newspaper we got here. But since you seem to know, tell me why i can't get a deputy to ride through my neighborhood until after our mailboxes are damaged, yet we have so many, we can now afford to let them go fly around?
Typical Centreville Sheriffs Office BS from somebody who just likes his toys at taxpayer expense!
Well, it was said once, control the paper and you can control the people

Outlaw, bchevy -- you both hit the nail on the head -- nothing is free. We are paying for the plane, fuel, maintenance in some way. Federal tax dollars, whatever.
As far as rumor mongering... I have to admit that is part of the fun of the discussion boards. We bring them up, fume over them and then squash them. No harm, no foul.

Since most everything is a big secret and all we get is press release drivel, rumors are all we have to go on.

sky, hahahahahahaha. i hope you were kidding. that is the funniest thing i've heard in a while. i heard the sheriff found a ufo but made the record observer axe the story. i bet that's why they got the plane, to battle aliens. let's start that rumor.
keep up the paranoia, one of these days we can connect the bay bridge to the assassination of kennedy!

of course i was kidding, the new span wasn't even built when kennedy was assassinated. (just to clarify, that was a joke too kl)
i don't rightly care about the sheriff's department or newspapers around here but when people first spread rumors then after they are proven false, try to put the facts through their brown colored lenses, it's just axe grinding.
so if crazies can make outrageous claims, why can't those of us in the fact-based world?

point is there are rumors and there are rumors. trying to pin the centreville incident on an illegal immigrant with no basis for doing so, and then not even coming in and saying oopsie, so sorry, is not exactly the kind of rumor that should be spread. it is just hateful and prejudicial. and then it turns out to be someone that some of you know. most things, good and bad, come in all sizes, shapes, colors, you name it. you don't have to be an illegal to do something stupid and run over a good man.

And not to mention the original title of the Centrville post said PRINCIPAL KILLED, how would like to see that news if you were a family member?
