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.
Dr APJ Kalam, President of India given during the inauguration of the seminar on “THE EFFECTS OF CORRUPTION ON GOOD GOVERNANCE AND HUMAN RIGHTS

All these home are being removed so the people from the upcoming convention don't say > look at that eye sore.
Like supposedly did by the president to your friends home.
Or is it just to clear the way for more roe houses?
Either way the mayor better get off his high horse, before his home get the wrecking ball.
This will never happen to his nor Dave Thune's dump, because the Democrats are in power.
Right Bill
This is the Dawkins and Kelly legacy just living on and being fueled by idiots like Lantry and Bostrom. After 2 huge property tax increases and currently begore we are even half way through the year St. Paul is already 13 million dollars in the hole, the city is out tearing these places down at the rate of 100 per month. Thats a lot of property to be removing from the tax rolls. I think it's not about getting proeprty fixed up, but rather tearing it down and amking development opportunity for their rich developer and non profit buddies. That's the only that makes any sense.....it's certaily not about blight of fixing anything up.

This shows that not everybody is asleep.
Thank you for the word of truth.
Now everyone wake up, die from hunger because of High city taxes and high gas prices.

To tear down the homes and the bank is holding the bag,
then the Federal Government bail's out the banks.
Then federal taxes goes up.
This is all because the city wants to play strong arm on people.
Let's tear down Thune's house. You see Thune makes the laws, but he does not have to follow them.
How about Thune's place on 7th street. Thune got the city to bend the rules because he was a city council member. Just ask any Citizen Service worker, they will tell you about Thune's properties.
Next you will have Chuck give some lame excuses for Thune, but the bottom line Repke is Thune's house and rental property were given special treatment by the city.
How do I know Repke, I work for the city and I am closer to the situation than you know.

these houses look better then Thunes properties you little RAT Repke!
I love how you guys hate Thune, do you all smoke? Is that your problem bucko?
I have posted this about fifty times so far so here we go again...
Find me one house in Ward 2 during Thune's thirteen years in office where an owner asked for extra time to complete repairs and Thune didn't give it to them.
Come on you little cig butt suckers, you whine and bitch, Thune this and Thune that and he has been your best vote on the Council. They have to beat him up to get him to agree to sign to but a house on the agenda for demo.
There is one on Cliff Street now that is suing after Thune refused to put it up for demo for two years. The unfair City...

Chuck Repke
Chuck,
I think Thune can make superficial gestures, but still bear the lions share of responsibility.
"There is one on Cliff Street now that is suing after Thune refused to put it up for demo for two years."
Is this how Bucky is financing his upcoming retirement?
I would never have thought that Bucky would find a way to line his pockets that was easier than getting himself put on the payroll of a company doing business with the city but there ya go!
(Well, there is that STAR thing, but ya can't dip into *that* well too often, I guess.)
How much does it cost to buy a Bucky Thune Certificate of Clemency, Chucky?
"There is one on Cliff Street now that is suing after Thune refused to put it up for demo for two years. The unfair City..."
There's a whole lot more lawsuits coming Repke. You've got no idea the shitstorm your city coucnil is going to be in at the end of the summer.
