LEAVE SPANISH LAKE ALONE!!!!!!!!!!! MAYOR LOWERY GO HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We are perfectly happy with the farms and conservation areas. We have enough problems w/o a casino. North County has always been the dumping ground for everybody’s problems. We get the hind end of everything.
Great he is a county commissioner – if he can not make good personal decisions about his drug abuse, how are we to expect to make good decisions in his position as a county commissioner? I am sure it will not stop him though – after all, Marion Barry was Major of Wachington D.C. and was re-elected after serving his prison sentence for crack cocaine.Fentanyl is approximately 100 times more potent than morphine – although a synthetic opiate. Pretty strong stuff – why doesn’t he just be done with it and get hooked on heroin? Just because he is using prescription drugs does not make his crime or his addiction and better than your common street junkie.
