Should all of Raleigh CO be under the city of Beckley.I don't think so.I don't want Beckley Mayor Puge to tax me in any way,shape,or form.I am totally against the Beckley metro system.I will never give my support to any Beckley-Raleigh Building Code System.They can't combine the two systems without our giving up our rights. The way the system would be set up there would be no oversight.This wil makes the seventh time we have voted the bill down.If it was a woman they would call it rape by now.What part of no do you not understand? It makes me mad for them to keep slipping around trying to pass a law that nobody wants.The only ones that want it is The City Of Beckley.What has Beckley done for us?Nothing..When you look at the way Beckley is run,who needs that corruption.Who pays for these good ideas the ones least able to pay.Join me and say no.

I don't really understand what all the fuss is about... What kind of rights are given up? How would this effect the rest of the county? Could someone fill me in?

well you don't know what a metro means then. Beckley can only tax beckley if you don't live in beckley you can't be taxed. I live in beckley and I think I pay like 40 bucks a year more cause I live in beckley, yet i get a cheaper insurance rate and other perks which add up to way more than 40 bucks. If we become a metro our statistics will show more people and land for business. This can attract more industries and jobs to the area, along with more grant and federal money. It will allow area ems, fire depts, and police to work together on emergencies. It can help these people to arrive quicker to accidents. It in no way will change how you are already taxed. Quit being dumba$$ rednecks and do some freaking research.

I say lets keep our own money and don't depend on federal money or grants.Do you think federal grants or money is free money. It is money that has been taken away from you in the first place.The metro will not effect business coming to our state.Taxes is what keeps business out.The state government spending is out of control and basicly that what metro govnernment is another form of exteneding the tax base.Do you think Beckley can manage what they already have? As I look around I see wasteful practices everywhere in Beckley and you want us combined with you I don't think so! You are wanting everyone to pay for run off water.I don't want your hands in my pocket.Stay away from me. If I wanted to live in Beckley I would have moved there in the first place.SAY NO TO METRO.

YOU WANT THE PEOPLE OF RAEIGH COUNTY TO JOIN BECKLEY METRO.WHAT ARE YOU OFFERING US,NOTHING. ALL YOU WANT US FOR IS TO TAKE ON YOUR PROBLEMS. UNTILL YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO OFFER US IT WOULD BE FOOLISH FOR US TO JOIN YOU WHEN ONLY BECKLEY WOULD GAIN ON THIS VENTURE AND THE PEOPLE OF RALEIGH COUNTY WOULD BE THE LOSERS.THE LAST TIME THE METRO WAS PUSHED YOU WERE TRING TO GET THE 50,000 PEOPLE ISSUE IT IS PLAIN WV DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGHT PEOPLE FOR METRO SYSTEM TO WORK SO LET THE ISSUE DIE.SO SAY NO TO METRO.

Dear Pathetic you really live up to your user name. Why don't you come see me in person if you know me so well. I think my husband and father of my kids wouldn't care to be called a loser. I'm sure he'd have a few things to say to you.

Hey Bill there is 78,000 people in raliegh county more than enough. also during the day the pop. of beckley balloons to over 150,000. Ya'll all benefit from what beckley provides, yet all you want to do is talk smack without even understanding what the metro system is about.

There is no way you can draw a map to connect the 50,000 people that you say you needed before .You were not covering all of Raleigh County.Tell us all what good things the metro system and the Raleigh-Beckley Building code will do for the people of Raleigh couty.Tell us why this is should a good deal for everyone.If you can't what are you hiding.

I wouldn't have gotten ugly if some chick wouldn't have come on here calling those with opinions different than hers "retards".

I'd discuss it with you, but who goes to Beckley Plaza these days anyways?

The Hepatitis comment was directed more towards awesome ink than it was your family.

You started this... are you ready to end it?

it was not ogre that said that...and are you mad because you work all day and don't have anything to show for it...you are more than likely one of those people that get drunk and beat on there girlfriend for something to do...you stop judging people because they have tattoos and enjoy your pathetic life...
I was just taking on Mrs Highschool Education after she called people "retards". I can assure you your guesses about me are all wrong. Don't get mad and do anything crazy like burning your trailer down.

What a moron. I don't have a problem respecting anyone with tattoos. How does that make them any less of a person? I'll tell you something. The day you grow an addition to that pea pod you call your nut sack and get enough balls to go and say that to Ogre's face, I just hope to hell I'm there to see it.
Considering you probably don't work, you should have the time on your hands. Unless you're working your corner down on S. Fayette Street.

Looking forward to the witty replies!

Have the time on my hands for what?? I don't live in Beckley but I know the people your talking about....they are really good people. I do have a job...I would be willing to bet that I work alot harder than you do...and NO it's not on the street corner beside you...well nevermind...I'm sure no one would pay you for any "services" you would have to offer. She was right...you do live up to your name on here! The name says it all.
