The agitators had an excuse to get agitated.

And nothing will change, but guess what? The opposition is organized and watching now. Lets hope the DPD proceeds cautiously. Abuse of this authorization will not be tolerated by the community at large.

All of you who call us racists are wrong. I am a close friend of the Mayor and he only cares about Danbury. He wants it like it was. I saw him right after he was forced to raise the Brazilian flag and he told me he almost vomited. You people are so wrong about him. All he cares about is Danbury.

That's a good point, now that Boughton started his dream of wiping out Hispanics and Brazilians from Danbury do you think that there will be great change? When this fails like it has in other places across the country who will be to blame. Hopefully Boughton thinks of this as a big win and has the nerve to run for something higher so he will leave Danbury and then get crushed in any other election especially if he is sumb enough to challenge Chris Murphy after Cappiello gets blown out. The Democrats who voted in favor of this just know that your time is coming. Danbury Democratic Town Committee, you better take a hard look at the recent municipal elections and get right because before you will know it there will be fresh democratic leadership in Danbury. Danbury is now the largest city in CT with a Republican-controlled city government and considering our demo. and past that should not be a statistic that belongs to us.

Congratulations to the racists and fearmongers of Danbury. You will now make undocumented immigrants who are store and restaurant owners leave town in fear, not leave the country. Thus the town will not get it's share of state sales tax, nor will it get property taxes or utility taxes. And without these people shopping in Danbury's stores, the stores and the city will suffer. Let's just go back in time to a year or two after the Mall was opened. It sure was desolate on Main St., but I guess some people consider that peaceful. Again, congratulations ignoramae!
In disgust with my neighboring town and its Mayor..
Well Mike you'll be pleased to know the next border for them to cross is Bethel. Sales, property and utility taxes are yours for the taking, our loss is your gain.

Go ahead and be the best example you can be to us ignoramae!

Good for Boughton and the Council!!! Bravo! Did ya hear those whining speakers saying "this is OUR town?" Boo hoo. The slum lord can't get renters!!! If they are so honest, why did they all run? We'll lose your businesses and your revenues? Good! Go! now my kid who is white and speaks english can get a job at McDonalds or Dunkin donuts...and I don't think you illegals are spending millions of dollars in our city...You're taking up space in our schools and emergency rooms.. I'm glad you're going... Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

Mayor Boughton wants it like it was ?!??! what exactly was THAT ??? please explain. Oh, never mind, I know you mean completely WHITE --thats what you mean. And if he cares so much for Danbury then why was he about to 'vomit' when he had to raise the Brazilian flag ? Like it or not you are all a bunch of racists !!

Awww go cry in your beer. We can't WAIT to get rid of you. Illegal aliens are NO ASSET to a community that they do their best to DRAG DOWN TO THEIR THIRD-WORLD LEVEL.
GET OUT of my town.
I will reiterate. I don't know how long you've lived in the area, but Danbury looked a lot more third-world before the recent influx of immigrants from South America than it does today, thanks to them. And I don't know how much you've travelled around the country or the world, but pictures I have seen of New Orleans look pretty "third world", what's with this superiority complex of most Americans? In addition, most working class people need to realize that it's the economy, not immigration which is causing them trouble. And if there wasn't exploitation of immigrant workers, they wouldn't need to worry as all would be paid the same and there would be a competition based on ability. One day things will get so bad in this country that you'll be forced to move to another in search of work, and you'll wish you had treated others that came to your land with the same respect and kindness that you would expect.

There has always been "organized opposition", so what has been posted is nothing new. Just the same oogly foogly "we're watching you" nonsense creeping up until it calms down here.

That's why (from what I read) they are looking toward putting detectives in the program. Detectives are more methodical in their police training and investigations. And Danbury has some very efficient detectives here.

You can't divorce people from their fears. On either side. And it's just something that the community will have to deal with. And hopefully come to terms with without too much adieu.

This is something Danbury has needed. And maybe there will come a time when Danbury will no longer need the services.

But right now, one step at a time.

"The 1500 mob of protesters/outside agitators, had NO effect on the councils decision."

I beg to differ. The noise outside sent a message to the council that they were going to be intimidated into doing something against their concience and against common sense, and that might well have finalized the vote in the minds of a couple of them. Total silence from all those people, with some candles borrowed from the church vigil across the street, would have had a much more
dramatic effect on the council - but defeating the ICE vote was not really why the rally took place.
But, maybe not. I have e-mails from a couple council members who knew how they were going to vote, and that's just how they did.

I was out there myself for about an hour. I parked on New Street and walked over, past the bus parked in the Fire Dept (why there?). It was peaceful, but almost impossible to get around. I was pleased to see an American flag near the center of the hooting, but not so pleased to see an Ecuadorian (sp?) flag held even higher farther down. The people were pleasant, many laughing and waving those pink signs around, but quite a few in the middle of the group seemed confused, saying each other "what now"? Police seemed to do a great job keeping things by the numbers.

Daily Horoscope for February 13

Scorpio

Resistance from others arises with regard to your efforts. You may strike trouble with in-laws or close associates and there could even be a move against you. Take the time to consult with everyone about what they want and then try to work in with them. If you have any problems with legal people or folk from overseas, tread carefully. Don't let your lifestyle betray your beliefs.
