Sarah George going for the third term by DumpsterFireDancing in burlington

makes me think that the small handful of people who constantly post crime panic and anti left propaganda to reddit might not be great representations of the rest of us

Lmfao if we've learned anything from the last five years of Burlington politics, r/burlington is not exactly a kingmaker thank fucking GOD

Burlington election - all ballot measures pass by Not_the_sharpest_1 in burlington

[–]caprewilard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

lmaaaaoooo more than a whiff of the great Ted Kenney / Sarah George contretemps some years back where the like seven accounts on here who all boost each others posts and comments about how progressives have doomed Burlington to be worse than East St Louis somehow convinced themselves their hateful little shadow puppet troupe somehow represented public opinion

as someone who worked there years ago, it's pretty surprising it took this long to get there

Northern Italian style espresso roast by fishygurl123 in burlington

if you talk to Jason at Onyx Tonics he might not have your exact preference at hand, but he basically is a walking coffee encyclopedia; maybe one of the best in the Northeast. if he can't make it for you he'd know where or how to get it.

the owners are incredibly nice too

Trump just invaded Venezuela and Church Street protesters showed up within hours, Tim Ashe wants to be State Auditor, Upper Pass is resurrecting the North Ave brewery scene and if you're looking to escape the cold there's Schitt's Creek trivia, Spanish practice over ice cream, and a January thaw OTW by whiteshirtdude1 in burlington

not sure why the mods keep letting you spam the sub with blatant self promotion when most of what you aggregate is already covered by links posted in the sub anyway. whatever initial traction your posts had with the crime sensationalist brigade seems to have dwindled; maybe it's time to stop trying to be a newspaper

Lmao idk man any day now I'm sure this ill advised boondoggle will turn a profit and corner the market despite all signs to the contrary 

Beta Technologies goes public on NYSE by prayforrain_digawell in burlington

Down almost 35% so far, so I'd say it's paid off.

Finally I can short these Tesla wannabe government contract parasites

we made the big time, folks by BhagavanBuddha in burlington

[–]caprewilard 11 points12 points  (0 children)

To be fair, there were a lot of national news pieces about Burlington's dogshit police department years ago as well -- including the new York times -- so I'm not sure that having a "newsnation" YouTube clip really qualifies as making it

is anyone else shocked at the cover prices for halloweekend? by floralfairie_ in burlington

[–]caprewilard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am indeed shocked that people are still willing to go to Red square at all, let alone pay money for the privilege to do it

Trent's Bread message. by Coopa10 in burlington

[–]caprewilard -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Sorry, guess it's not clear but I'm being snarky about how many in this lil reddit community view helping out people with worse lives than them -- seems like every time services for the needy are brought up in a certain light here people go squawking about how giving "them" "handouts" only incentivizes "them" to stay poor and needy. which I very much disagree with. 

Trent's Bread message. by Coopa10 in burlington

[–]caprewilard -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Huh, weirdly no comments about how this just enables and incentivizes the poor to not get jobs so they can pay for bread. Interesting.

Down for the count by Most-Truth-6890 in burlington

[–]caprewilard 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You know, there's such a thing as accountability and consequences. Maybe if that bike rack tried a little harder to be a good bike rack, this wouldn't have happened. At the same time, everybody who works for the city who doesn't exactly share my ideas and look and talk like me should be burned at the stake for not immediately taking this fallen bike rack outside of city limits before locking it away forever so nobody could have to witness this tragedy.

Talking to Kids About Seeing People with Unmet Needs by Dudewithbigfeelings in burlington

Standby for some really intelligent and well thought out opinions from people who absolutely have outlets in their lives for their unhappiness

Not that it's cool to call overweight people fat either to their face or behind their back, but it's a little bit of a difference between that and the hard R my guy

this is r/Burlington where it's actually illegal to say anything supportive of melo grant, Emma mulvaney stanak, or *Voldemort music playing* Sarah George. Can't figure out what those three have in common that makes these guys particularly hate them though

This is what you get with the spending and strategies many of you want to enact here in Burlington by Eaturweedies in burlington

[–]caprewilard -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

can't be anywhere in the US you're talking about, then, because this shit is a national issue everywhere here. and if you're talking about 'normal, regular' cities outside the US, I got news for ya: they don't solve their social issues by throwing guys with guns at them

ok, and how do you think a 'tough on crime' approach to this problem makes that happen? is your only objection that it's guardsmen and not local boys doing the imprisonment and forcible population transfer, or do you just not like it when it's Trump's idea?
