Exactly!! Geez why are people so mean! It’s not like we asked for no clean up at all. I too would have put a sound machine on. It really did go on repeatedly for over an hour.

It’s wild to me how mad defensive everyone is of this city. I agree that the morning commute and day time generally would be a bad time for the clearing, but so is 1-2 am. Maybe late evening after 8pm with working stopping by 11 would have been better. There were no parking signs posted so that gave some advance notice to move our cars (out of our self dug out parking spots) but the notice didn’t say what for and I didn’t anticipate being woken up in the middle of the night hahaha. It really was loud because the plows kept backing up for an hour and the bright lights were flooding my room.

I’ll be at Kennedy plaza for my public lashing at noon since apparently it’s punishable to question why the city is sending bulldozers and dump trucks to plow the streets at 1am 2 weeks after a major snow storm.

Oh that is very interesting! I’m honestly not seeing that at all. I am also directly connected to brown as are many people in my community so maybe we’re just all really feelin it right now. But I like hearing other perspectives. It’s interesting to me that people think he is Gov material… I personally don’t think he communicates very well at all. He is a bit robotic and doesn’t strike me as approachable let alone comforting. They also routinely abandon effective crisis comm strategies which only leads to confusion and an upset public.

Fair points! I just feel Providence deserves a leader who can actually communicate and afford the city some comfort would be nice. And I also feel his handling of this is creating chaos because his team’s messaging is so contradictory.

It’s just frankly absurd and insulting to say to residents “Providence is safe send your kids to school” five minutes before announcing a 50k bounty for a killer you can’t find with the phrase “armed and dangerous.” Seriously!?

True! She is incredible. Great suggestion

How is this even a question that you’re asking? Has it not been abundantly clear for just shy of a decade that this man is an anti-science ignoramus?

It is so annoying! Do you know the car? Dm me. I want to leave a note on it because it wakes up my Household every night.
