SHHHH! While we listen to words of wisdom from a wise man.
Conscience is the light of the Soul that burns within the chambers of our psychological heart. It is as real as life is. It raises the voice in protest whenever anything is thought of or done contrary to the righteousness. Conscience is a form of truth that has been transferred through our genetic stock in the form of the knowledge of our own acts and feelings as right or wrong. A virtuous and courageous person can alone use the instrument of conscience. He or she can alone hear the inner voice of the soul clearly. In a wicked person this faculty is absent. The sensitive nature of his / her conscience has been destroyed by sin or corruption. Hence he or she is unable to discriminate right from wrong. Those who are leading organizations, business enterprises, institutions and governments should develop this virtue of the ability to use their own conscience. This wisdom of using the clean conscience will enable them to enjoy the freedom.

St. Paul / Firework sales banned outdoors
Pioneer Press
Article Last Updated: 05/09/2007 11:36:44 PM CDT
Fireworks dealers try to make themselves conspicuous with brightly colored curbside tents. This year, they'll be conspicuously absent in St. Paul.
The St. Paul City Council on Wednesday banned the outdoor sale of fireworks. The city is working on a new ordinance to regulate where outdoor dealers can sell their wares, but the ban will be in effect through Independence Day.
In recent years, some neighborhood groups have objected to the fireworks stands, particularly in the Midway area of University Avenue. Indoor sales of legal fireworks - basically, anything that doesn't fly into the air or explode - still will be allowed.
"This doesn't come up that often, but when it does, it creates its own kind of fireworks," said Patricia James, a city staffer working on the new ordinance.

So what you're saying is that the neighbors who pay taxes don't want something in their neighborhood, they don't have the right to say so?
The Council responds to the citizens and you call them Commies.
Can you even tell us what a Communist is? Nope.
We know all about your neighborhood groups.
A minuscule number of people who seem to make decisions for the larger community.
TAKE A CITY WIDE POLL WARD BY WARD AND SEE HOW INSIGNIFICANT THESE WHINERS ARE!
Iknow what a commie is.. The Democrat Party has been moving in this direction for years.

a small group whiners, you mean like landlords?
Seems to me that when the city passes stricter ordinances, they only griping you hear is from the landlords and nobody but their lawyers really care.
I'm sure you know the types very well.
Come on Bob, they didn't ban fireworks sales. The local stores can still sell what is ever legal. What they put an end to, for this year, are those outdoor displays that pop up on vacant lots.
They look like crap and cost money to monitor. Until they can figure out a way to break even on the City monitoring them, they have forced the sales inside.
Wow, sounds like a commie plot to me!

Chuck,
Why is the City concerned with security at these vendors sites when in fact around the City they have our police encourage corner groceries, gas stations, bars and other businesses to provide their own security?
I happen to know the vendor near my home who sets up at Sibley plaza provided his own security.
The City is so focused on ugly or crappy why haven't they demolished the Headhouse?
This is another attack on capitalism.
The title is appropriate!
I think we should open up the markets in Minnesota to sell the fireworks here that can only be bought in Wisconsin.
Next time you readers go to Wisconsin for fireworks, look around the parking lot of the fireworks merchant. You will see most of the cars are from Minnesota. Minnesota money going to Western Wisconsin.
I also think we should sell alcohol here on Sunday and keep that money from running over the border too.
You see this way the authorities can set up there little traps for all the Minnesota people that cross the border and buy their fireworks in Wisc. resulting in more people in jails and more money from the tax payers, the cost definitely out weighs what the fines are, yet wait and see, it will be on the news about how law enforcement cracks down on the citizens of this free country we live in that think they are going to celebrate the fourth of July the American Freedom way! What a joke Minnesota has become, you can buy a gun in Minnesota easier than fireworks, and what is the reason of not selling alcohol on Sun. do they really think that stops people from drinking or once again going to Wisc. to get what you can't have in Minnesota?
How about selling fireworks, liquour and hanguns all in one store?
Hey Chuck, what's up?
Hey let's put the gun's, cigarettes,fireworks,liquor, strippers, dirty books, cheap housing outlet, all in one store and call it the
"Nasty Morals Outlet"
Then politicians can pick on one business for poltical gain.
And the people who open these fireworks stands, buy city permits, pay taxes for the evil profits they make, pay rent for the space, employ someone to work there, (who also happens to pay taxes on his paycheck) buys liability insurance and more shouldn't have a say also?
Since when has opportunity to try and earn a living turned into a right only able to be enjoyed and persued by the few air heads that run the District Councils?
Now I see why there are so many drug dealers, its easier than trying to earn a living the honest way in Minnesota!
It reminds me of a so called tobacco store I went in on W.7th St. and St. Clair I think you could buy most every thing there except cigarettes. That was the impression I had when the cigarette option was one of three brands and then there were several people hanging out in the store and incense burning.
I like that idea of having a "Nasty Morals Outlet". It would be like attending a city council meeting.
posters here are so funny. you BEMOAN the fact that residents choose to dictate their quality of living. So residents want fewer dump trucks in the alley and no fireworks in their neighborhood, what is wrong with that?
The world is run by those who show up, not those who complain on a blog.
10:58, I have to agree with you. Most people are to busy with their lives to get involved in politics and the community.
AND THIS IS WHY THINGS ARE SUCH A MESS IN THIS CITY.
Good news though. There is people who have decided we need change and change is coming. One only has to look to the Highland Council developments to see this.
praytell, what was going wrong at the Highland Community Council?
3:23, Nothing that I know of.
Isn't it nice to see Republicans taking an interest in the community at the grass roots level?
I know the council is by partisan, however, a one party rule in this City has had it's day. And the power base starts right in these community organizations.
I was pleased to see Troien was able to motivate so many people to take an interest in their community on the West Side. I don't agree with some of his plans but, you have to admit Troien sure is a mover and shaker.
It is a responsibility of the citizens to take part in the decision making process and it is time for concerned citizens to draw other city residence into the decision making process.
I would like to believe we as a City are on a new path and it is time to up root the old and in with the new.We are going through a superficial face lift concerning new buildings and tearing down old for new. Let's change the face of politics as usual too then we will truly have a great City!
New people will stimulate new idea's and possibly add a counter balance to entrenched old ideas.
Maybe the people who don't show up get their thoughts and feelings validated here and find out there are a lot of others who feel the same way, and then they go vote rather than show up at some loser neighborhood group where the constant power struggles and one-ups-manship are the order of the day.
