About 400 elementary- and middle-school students taking part in the Shenendehowa Inventors program will display their inventions at the former Cotton Market store at Clifton Park Center from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
The idea of internet watch is good but many civil rights may be violated with this type survalience and a civilian such as JW looking at everyone. With what has been posted so far, He doesn't appear to be a good choice based on others that live in his nieghborhood. The PD has it's faults and failings but all in all do a great job. A more professional and trained person needs to be there, Not JW. Anthony you need to look a little closer at the PD then just the end of your nose. SPD is spread thin not just here but in many communities. People need to stop bitching about our PD, get off their couches and help. JW is not a help by no means. From my experience, the SPD is much better than no PD at all as suggested. I am not a regular police patrolman but I do work inside the city as a volenteer in various org. an see what these men and women do each day. And have to put up with. Without that knowledge, comments against the police are pure ignorance. Be responcible and do the homework before making comments such as that. It just makes you and all of us look ignorant about our police and this city. As far as JW is concerned. I know who he is and don't think much of him. To put himself in the paper like this only tells me he is looking for "At A Boys" to make himself look good. The idea is solid though, I will give him that. But as previously stated, JW "OH MY GOD NO!". instead of complaining about our police ask what you can do to help. Join the organizations that are set up and trained to do this work. One other thing mentioned was the bikering in the Nieghborhood Watch group. The only bickering was JW wanting to take over with no training, knowledge or social skills to handle the job. The group wasn't broken he was asked to leave. Be careful what you believe in this article, many woppoers were written to make JW (quote-in his mind) a big man. I hope the Mayor, Commisionor Bennet and our acting Chief Falvo, don't put him in a position to watch any of you out there. From what I have seen and been told he won't be fair or observe issues correctly. This will put the city and the SPD in a bad position.
