Dear Confused....an anonymous comment from a reader

CP eschews anonymous comments for a variety of reasons and wonders why a person who has an opinion is afraid to make his or her identity known. What's the big deal? Surely if you believe in what you say, you ought to be able to show us who you are. We do not live in a police state---yet. However, in this case, CP will drop his standards and allow "confused" to post this comment. CP cannot quite tell if the person is serious or sarcastic, but signing his or her name as "confused" fits the bill. Readers are invited to comment, signed with their own names, of course. If anyone is confused about CP's position about public housing and crime, all you have to do is read the numerous postings I have written with the same clear, consistent message. And now, from "Confused."

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "Annapolis/Eastport Residents Crack Down on Mayor t...":

So, we are worried about the shooting and the gunfire? What about the people we are supposed to be helping? What about thier (sic) quality of life? We are paying thier (sic) rent and the management of thier (sic) communities. Don't we care about them?

I think it is very important of those who are fortunate to help those who are less fortunate.

What I don't understand is why we, the taxpayers are complaining about the guns and the shooting and the crime in the houses that we pay for. We are the landlords.

Why are we not insisting that the houses that we pay for, in which the people we are trying to help live, are protected against drugs and guns?

And why do the people we help get to live there forever? For $25 a month. I wouldn't get a job either. I would be an entrepeuner (sic) in a business that has a great barrier to entry and has a long start up time. Selling and marketing drugs! Takes awhile to make the contacts in DC to make the deliveries. And it takes time to save up enough money to get a worthwhile stash to start selling.

What on earth are we thinking???? That is only the effect of allowing our houses to be so poorly managed. Why don't we take care of the cause???

How are the cops supposed to stop what we as Annapolitans condone??

Why don't we first clean up our houses. This is not someone elses (sic) neighborhood! This is our neighborhood!

Signed: Confused
