Gone to the Dogs!

Just had a lovely summer evening watching Summer Stock. It's not the best by either Gene Kelly or Judy Garland, but it's fun and festive and has some great moments in it.

And one of the numbers made me think of Port Angeles!

 
So this one is for you, troll, you uncritical lover of Port Angeles and permanent resident of the early 20th century. 'Cause, by tarnation, if'n it worked fer yer grandpappy, it sure'n oughta be good enough fer the dang 21st century! T'aint no need fer folks to grow or learn or nothin'! 'Cause, by tarnation, debt or no debt, meth or no meth, it's another GREAT day in Port Angeles! Now, you go an get yer innernet outta my yard!
 
(Meanwhile, dear troll, the score is 443 different topics posted on this blog to your big fat, impotent ZERO for getting this free and open forum to shut down.)


35 comments:

  1. Oh, oops! I guess by posting this latest topic, that makes it 444 to ZERO.

  2. This is what happens when people who feel insecure about their abilities take their fears about themselves out on everyone else.

    The "Little Man" syndrome that has caused humanity all kinds of problems throughout history.

    And, we all know who the "Little Man" with the well documented problems is, in this situation.

    1. I'm thinking you mean Madam Chamberlin and her Imperial Our Town Off With Their Heads Court of Clowns? Is that who you're thinking of?

  3. we dont need you shut down, we need you to slip, to make the same mistakes that Dildo-Dale made. Your ego(s) can't help but reveal who you are and then we shut your business, contacts, one by one.

    Happy Labor Day

    1. Oh heavens! You mean - GASP - you're going to go after all the businesses that advertise on this blog???

      (A moment of silence to let that thought sink in.)

      Really? THAT'S your plan? That's everything you've got, Mr. Everything?

      (A moment of silence to let that thought sink in.)

      Uh, hey, um...This blog doesn't have any business contacts. You know that, right?

      (A moment of silence to let the troll slink away.)

    2. Name calling and threatening...how does that make for positive change? While this blog doesnt lack for at times its own hyperbole it does provide an alternative voice to the pollyanna or obfuscated reporting of PDN. I live here in PA, been unemployed for over 3 years turned down for jobs where I threatened status quo. 6 of the 9 houses on my side of the street sit empty. My take after volunteering as Planning Commissioner and at Senior Center, wandering the national park and downtown, as well as frequenting local food and beverage establishments is CK provides a necessary public service for those of us who recognize extractive millbilliness and tree mugging not the future. The apparent Our Toad, er Town vendetta against him and Dale of POC appears to be effort by those with small minds made bold by the Lier in Chief in the White House and his minions to squelch truth and dissenting voices. Simply put this place is effed up and vigilantism not helping, whether locally or internationally. Grow up and do something constructive.

    3. Censorship is un-American. So I remain puzzled by the tactics embraced by these would-be patriots.

      If you don't like people reporting that you're harassing homeless people, or that you've been convicted of possessing illegal guns, I'd say the solution is to stop engaging in those illegal acts in the first place. Trying to kill the messenger doesn't change the facts of the story, except to make you look even worse.

      And I'm sure that Adam Chamberlin and his cronies never think about how they are not only infringing on Dale Wilson's First Amendment rights, but also those of the businesses they target. Maybe those businesses actively WANT to support what Dale is doing. Maybe they WANT to be associated with his paper.

      I am certain that they do not want to be bullied, threatened or otherwise harassed. How do you defend such thuggish tactics? I have yet to hear any reasonable (or even plausible) defense offered for these un-American activities. Please, Adam, tell us why this sort of censorship is A-OK with you.

      Because, to repeat, censorship is un-American.

    5. The idiot troll clearly thinks he's defending Port Angeles with these stupid antics. But all he's really doing is showing that this is a town unfit for human habitation. He's putting the ugliest face possible forward for all to see. And he's proud of it. This demonstrates so much of what is wrong in Port Angeles, an ugly, ugly town.

    6. Only a chick would say "dildo" so darn many times. Which means that: a.) Madam has an "innie", or b.) it's a wing-nut dingbat girlie who idolizes Madam (be still your beating heart).

      I cannot believe that a guy would still have such a hard-on for Dale. Only a woman would take it to these lengths and not let it go. I'm thinking "psycho wanna-be girlfriend" stuff.

      And the motivation is clear to please some guy so that he will suddenly turn and say "oh there you are, where have you been all my life".

      Because there is no other rationale for this long-term b.s. and non-stop trolling.

      So, troll: get it straight, Madam Chamberlin is never going to want you. No matter how many businesses you destroy.

      He just isn't that into you.

    7. And what "mistakes" did Dale actually make? To re-print and quote from actual police reports the attacks on innocent poor people?

      Or, to attend public meetings, and point out the stupid decisions being made?

      Or was it to care enough about the community he lives in, to volunteer day after day to make it a better place?

      Oh! I know. He made the "mistake" of seeking support from local small businesses who, obviously, agreed with the premise of free speech in America. The "mistake" was that these small local businesses could be threatened, intimidated and bullied into withdrawing their support.

      Just as the idiot is trying to (stupidly) do here.

      And, obviously, this poor excuse for a human is going to try to figure out who CK is, where they live, if they are married or have a life partner, and try to destroy their personal lives. As they have tried to do with Dale.

      Why? Because, like in Afghanistan and the Taliban, or in America today, free speech cannot be tolerated. In Pakistan, the Taliban was outraged that a 15 year old girl openly advocated girls be allowed to go to school, and Malala Yousafzai was shot in the face.

      That act was that group of idiots attempts at intimidation, threatening and bullying. It didn't work.

      The morons in Port Angeles think they've accomplished something. I'm still wondering what, exactly, they think that is. In the last two years of their "reign of terror", Port Angeles has declined faster than it was before.

    8. AND YET! I haven't even let the craziest, most fractured and reality-deficient comments through. It's worse than you think, trust me. And these people walk the streets, vote, etc.

      It's so funny. Back at the beginning of the year, I got a whole rash of threatening comments that were clearly, clearly, clearly coming from Scott T. Collins. He was threatening all manner of things if I didn't cease and desist with this blog.

      I did not cease and desist, and, of course, nothing happened. Scott's threats weren't worth the paper they weren't printed on, y'know? But what more do you expect from someone who is best known for being a ranting loon and having a standoff with the police at his house?

      Then, when the whole "Our Town" clowns mess was being exposed, I got a whole rash of threatening comments that were clearly, clearly, clearly coming from Adam Chamberlin and/or his "Our Town" minions. He was threatening all manner of things if I didn't cease and desist with this blog. (Remember all the talk about "two lawsuits coming across his desk"?)

      Once again, I did not cease and desist, and, of course, nothing happened. But what more can you expect from a gang of losers who only have courage when drunk and/or in a group? Macho shitheads talking shit...Can't...Do...Shit.

      Here I am, still telling the sad truths about Clallam County and still providing a forum for those who care to learn and participate. And there you are, Scott, Adam, trolls, still flailing impotently. Flailing and failing.

      Just like Port Angeles.

      This blog isn't the cause - it's a symptom. Crazy, dysfunctional loser like you all - you're a big, big part of the cause. You're the problem. You're unable to function in the modern, connected world, so you try (and fail) to drag everything around you down to your own debased state.

      It never works, though. The world goes on, moves on, and you and your kind get left behind.

      Just like Port Angeles.

    9. Shut your business contacts down...one by one? You might be having a problem identifing who's blog this is...because your an idiot but the rest of us know exactly who you are. We know all about you. If you graduated at all you never went any further then Peninsula college or a brief stint in the military. Other then the military you have never really been anywhere where else. You have no friends outside the people you grew up with here. People just like yourselves. If your a man you have very little respect for women and if your a woman you either dont notice it or you dont have a problem with it. Man or woman your an ignorant bigot and somewhat proud of it. Your insecurity and fear of anyone or anything different from yourself makes your need for bigotry paramount in order to have any kind of sense of your own importance. You are the sun and everything and everyone else is the moon. You cant see the ripples in the pond, you cant even see the pond. You wont ever leave here. You will grow older have more partners within your inner circle, you will have children with most of them. You will grow older, fatter and die here having never experienced anything more then you have already. You will never be any smarter or any happier and you will raise children exactly like yourself and their lives will be just like yours. So laugh it up. We are laughing with you.

    11. The negative press generated from Scott T. Collins' psycho standoff with police undoubtedly added to the critical mass of bad press that sinks this town online. Look up Port Angeles on the web, and it's like turning over a rock with all sorts of slimy, poisonous things crawling under it. Why go there? To the outside world we're all just gun nuts, bulldozer rampagers and poverty stricken meth heads. This blog just documents the damage. Wingnuts like Scott T. Collins cause the damage.

  4. So, it is about businesses? About going after a persons' business if you don't like things they say?

    Following on the post in a previous thread, it isn't like businesses in Port Angeles are doing so well, as it is. Reviews on Yelp and the on-line hotel and motel sites don't rate Port Angeles very well.

    Is this because of Dale, or this blog? The businesses get a bad rating from patrons because of Dale writing about the County Commissioners or Port Angeles city council?

    Is Port Angeles going to descend further, with signs being carried in front of businesses that support people or views we don't like?

    Come this fall, after the elections, is the new council going to re-instate fluoridation of the water supply? If so, I remember people talking about meeting the ferry with placards telling visitors about the poisoned water in Port Angeles. Of handouts with lists of local businesses that serve food made with that fluoridated water. Of businesses that choose not to stand up, or who support fluoridation.

    We're only weeks away.

  5. IMO it's some kind of mass mental disease which infests PA in particular.
    Sequim doesn't operate like that. Nor do the smaller little towns out along the coast.

    So what is it exactly about the inbreds in PA? Why are they so incredibly idiotic and yet so dang proud of it? Are they just desperate to hang onto their old fashioned millbilly wet dream of a world? Or are they simply not capable of visualizing a better future, and wallow in the torment of days gone by, but with a hefty mean streak?

    Or, are the citizens just too apathetic and doped out to get in the way of the lumber thugs who have staked out PA as their "turf"? Yes, the same backwater thugs who can't deal with anyone different than themselves, and go absolutely beserk trying to run off normal law-abiding people.

    PA needs an involuntary psych exam.

  6. The trolls want to destroy Port Angeles in order to save Port Angeles.

    Which leaves Port Angeles suitable only for inbred trolls.

    Good plan.

  7. Another objective judgement of Port Angeles. In looking at a couple properties that were put up for sale 3 months ago, none have sold, and all have dropped their asking prices by $25k to $50k. These are properties owned by long time residents. Their houses are already empty.

    Now they are desperate, and dropping their asking prices. Conned by the idiot local real estate scamsters who told everyone what a hot market Port Angeles was, they moved assuming they could sell their properties here. Ooops. Conned again.

    So familiar.

    1. Thanks for the note. You've also hit upon yet another theme of recent troll comments that I haven't allowed published - all those touting how it is a HOT real estate market in Port Angeles RIGHT NOW, and houses are causing BIDDING WARS and it is a GREAT TIME to sell because people are making money HAND OVER FIST.

      So, again, thanks for the report from realty reality. It is appreciated.

    2. Here is one example. These guys had the usual log trucks, half disassembled vehicles, and other treasures in their front yard until earlier this year. Flew the confederate flag. The whole bit.

      https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/4035-Obrien-Rd-Port-Angeles-WA-98362/114636925_zpid/

      Here is another that first went up for sale in 2015. Didn't sell. They put it back on this "hot market" first of July, this year. Also now empty. Still not sold. Also "price reduced". And, expected to drop more.

      https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/3634-Deer-Park-Rd-Port-Angeles-WA-98362/115851906_zpid/

      We all see the former Bushwackers restaurant on the main drag out of town that has been for sale since 2015. "Price reduced for quick sale" sign has been up all summer long. No bidding war there, either. Prime location.

      Yes, the real estate people in Port Angeles have a long history of suckering "out-of-towners" into getting trapped by buying into what they are told are "great opportunities". Once the paperwork is complete, they even have the balls to circle back give their business cards to new owners; "You're new in town, and likely will be putting your property up for sale. Here's my card."

      They have no shame.

    3. The average home in Sequim is on the market for six weeks. The stories you hear about bidding wars or super-quick sales are in Sequim.

    4. Sequim is way ahead of Port Angeles by almost any measurement. It's not perfect, but, at the very least, there don't seem to be so many people there determined to eat their own.

      It's also that much closer to Port Townsend, and escape velocity from Port Angeles altogether.

      Life is too short to live in Port Angeles. (Short sales are, however, another matter entirely...)

    5. If only PA would finish eating their own.

  8. And an update, of sorts...

    In thinking about all things "Our Town," I realize I have made a mistake. I have traditionally called the members of that bigoted, bullying, freedom-hating group of religious zealots the "Our Town" clowns. That was wrong.

    I will not repeat that incorrect name. Henceforth, I will more accurately refer to these bigoted, bullying, freedom-hating religious zealots as the "Our Town Taliban."

    Please adjust your settings. Thank you.

  9. It IS interesting to see the people that are causing so much of the negatives about Port Angeles. A three time convict who got busted posting other people's private sex videos they obtained off stolen cell phone memory cards is a leader of the primary group being supported by the powers-that-be.

    Really? No, really? Rational people, the city's leadership and "700 " others all see this situation as something to get involved with, and support?

    This is like the plot of a really bad movie nobody would watch. Too stupid to be believable.

    A bit like that movie about the Stepford Wives. And even that was a satirical horror flick.

    But, as in some kind of twisted wormhole, we have the all too real craziness called Port Angeles.

    2. You keep mentioning Madam, but the problem isn't a few disturbed morons like him. As you suggest, the big problem for PA is the hundreds of ostensible town "leaders" who choose to make him their proxy. Not one town official. Not a handful. Hundreds who think the OT MO is an acceptable way of life. That's more disturbing than any horror flick.

  11. The problem lies with the leadership, such as it is, at the PA Police Department and the county prosecutor's office. Park Ranger turned chief of police Brian Fife cannot find the one bullet they give him so he relies on the eternally corrupt Jason Viada. Viada was made asst. chief because Brian can't find his asshole and Viada can at least do that. Get these three out of the picture and you have a chance at re-creating a town worthy of the majority of the people who live here. In a sane police department these OT taliban would have been mopped up and sent to Walla Walla 2 years ago. Instead Chief Barney Smith goes to their meetings and tells them what a great job they are doing. Hard to tell who/what Viada is "doing."
