this article makes no sense dont you people have any thing else to report on how about the celebration thet was going on at 18 and vine but who an i kidding you people dont cave about black communitie sall you care about is waldo or brookside well go to #@^%

In response to the Jonathan Marzett comment - When you tell someone to go to #@^%, why should they respect you or even acknowledge what you say? Respect is earned and you get what you give... and all you've given is a bunch of #@^%.

Yeah. Hounds in party hats rule. Go, dog park!

Well thats it....if Deb Hipp wants it...well then it must be! Nothing is more annoying than screechy activist types...screw'em...let'em bitch...A dog park there is not reasonable.Like the nutjobs on the street corner that talk to themselves...let'em babble on and enjoy the show.Contrary to what the Liberal Princess Hipp says....they will eventually go away.If more people drive to the park instead of walking their dogs...wont that leave a bigger "carbon footprint"? Im just trying to think like a loyal Pitcher.

billy,
FYI, name calling and insults are not an effective form of argument. Do you have any facts or logical arguments to back up the one statement you make that's not a personal attack? (That a dog park in Sunnyside is "not reasonable.")

Oh, you don't? I didn't think so. Because the fact is, that if enough people want a dog park at a neighborhood park in Waldo, then a neighborhood park in Waldo is a perfectly reasonable place to put a dog park.

Other cities have successful dog parks in neighborhood parks that are much smaller than Sunnyside. Sunnyside sits empty much of the time. The city has found enough room to place three baseball diamonds there, even though they sit empty 90 percent of the time (only used on weekends and only during the summer) and can't be used for other uses while they're sitting empty. The city also has found enough room to place a very expensive sprayground in Sunnyside, even though that also sits empty much of the time and can only be used in summer, and cannot be used for other uses when not in use.

As for your complaints about "activist types," I guess it's now a crime to work for something that will benefit one's neighborhood. You'd probably like it better if we all sat on our butts watching TV all day instead of working towards a goal. Well, good then. You do that.
