'Welcome to the Police State of Amerika’

A look at the day's comments from Patch account holders in the region.

BETHWOOD

“Shameful that soldiers are dead so we can vote and only 155 show up. I have to say the town did a horrible job communicating it as well. Not one "vote today" sign seen anywhere in town. I hope there is a better republican turnout in November or it's going to be another long 4 years.” Turnout with 15 percent coming out to vote in the GOP presidential primary. Patch commenter ‘’ lives up to his or her name.  

OXFORD  

“More gubbment intervention. Welcome to the police state of Amerika.” Oxford High School will be at the prom. thinks – perhaps sarcastically – that it crosses a line.

MILFORD 

“This schoolyard bullying attitude is totally unproductive. Continue to ridicule the process and see where it gets us. Try voting for a third party for a change...although most are too close-minded to even read about what Libertarians, Green, Constitutionalists, et al, stand for. 
Expand your horizons a bit...you might learn something.” An exchange in the about Milford’s Republican presidential primary prompted ’s response.

EAST HAVEN

“This is MY DAD!!! Now that's a lucky break!!!! Best dad any daughter could ask for!!! Thanks for everything dad.” An East Haven Patch blogger wrote about all the lucky breaks he has appreciated throughout life. His daughter,, seems to be the lucky one.

This election will be the most important and yes, the dirtiest in our nation's history. However, what I fear the most is America's indifference in choosing our nation's leaders. I fear history will repeat itself dear" Commrad" and thus forgot our freedom because of our not being involved in the nation's democratic process

Don't be naive Bobby. Your vote will not matter and hasn't mattered for the past 100 years or so in the United states.

I like the way on the main page the Patch has the photo of Mitt Romney next to the quote, "Welcome to the police state of Amerika." Of course, when you go to this page, you see that the quote refers to the story about breathalyzer testing at the Oxford Prom and has nothing to do with Romney. It appears we're getting a little bit of a bias message by linking the Romney photo with that quote on the main page though, no?

To clarify, they have 4 cats, and they're only able to take two of them, plus their 14 year old dog.Read More It was a struggle for them to even find a way to get the dog in the rental agreement, otherwise they would have tried to take them. :(

Sad that they had to leave these beauties behind. I'm sure they are heartbroken over it.

Please contact Forgotten Felines in Clinton. They are a no kill cat shelter. Offering "free toRead More a good home" pets is dangerous. There are bad people out there who take them and sell them to research labs or use them as bait in dog fighting. Please rethink this ad.

Is it still for sale? I might be interested in the dyer if your willing to separate the pair.
