  • These bankers, I do not like. I cannot wait until Judgement Day comes.

  • i hope something terrible happens to the city and water company.

  • Drowning In Water Bills in Durham, NC -- click my name to see my video

  • Drowning In Water Bills in Durham, NC

  • That's terrible they should help people especially in this economy!

  • Sad thing is that these banks let the homes sit empty.

  • Fucking avaricious kikes! what an in injustice. Well those jews are really true to the talmud when it calls for it to steal and cheat the gentiles because we gentiles are subhuman cattle, goyim. Yup the Synagogue of Satan at work.

  • "Alltimer's" disease?  Apparently the narrator doesn't know what Alzheimer's disease is.

  • Here's a novel idea; pay your water bill. That is why you shouldn't quit your job unless you have a fall back plan.

  • Man I would gut that place! The sinks, the toilette the plumbing the drywall, the wiring, the circuit panel, and even the porch rails would be gone. I might even be inclined to carefully remove the window glass from the frames, then place the glass in the middle of the living room and drop a brick on them.

  • This is really heartbreaking, it shows what an evil presence Wall St and the putrid Banking system is to the American Dream. I want to go throw rocks.

  • Don't you think you need to blame the law not the investors ?

  • Honestly, America truly deserves the ignorance and confusion it's in right now. All people have to do is open their eyes. Look how much trouble America is in, because it mortgaged the future for years and years. I just hope that when all this is over, no one is stupid enough to call themselves American and be proud of it. America as it was is now a joke. A stupid, conceited joke.

  • Just what was the house worth? The scam that the banksters have perfected is that anybody who is not working has no right to access any equity in their home, even if the home is PAID OFF!

    So, taking care of a parent with altheimers means you are scum to the banksters if it means take off work to do it. Even though she probably saved the state money by taking off of work to care for her own father, the state still comes and takes the home.

  • If everyone who has watched this story could have donated just

    $2 each to Vicki, then she could have bought another house. I feel so bad for her! This is horrible! Does anyone know if any organization came to her aide? We should set up a fund for her. No one will miss a few dollars from their banks, and it would make all the difference for her. Let me know if anyone is interested.

  • @jay1pizza do you ever listen to ur self? The lady sheriff was doing her job period! Just the same as most ppl in the world. It's not a conspiracy from the gov ima black man in Detroit and that isn't allowed here! It's Baltimore city that's shady. So you and ur bullshit theory can go some were!!!

  • To all viewers of this video; I would appreciate any information you can sned to me to see if this sort of action can take place here D.C. About my post where I made serveral comments especially the part about the credit score; I would to read what do you think ? I may not have this right and sometimes I am wrong but I love to learn from other poeple valid opinions so that I can increase my knowledge and use to do good in this world. Thank You !!

  • A couple things; Like one poster stated could the water authorites have encouraged Miss Vicki Valentine the use of avaible equity to pay the bill? I see the use of overdue water bills in tax lien real estate foreclosue sales legal in Baltimore,MD>> Does anyone knowif this can happen here in Washington,D.C. ? Miss Vicki Valentine need to find a place top pritory; Also finding out how and when to begin improving her credit score is a must. I have read how you pay your bills affect the score.

  • @cgfxmosh brother,the tool is the idiot taking orders from

    his master to inflict misery on these families and do

    anything to a meal on the table.We see who the enemies

    are,and unconcious beings such as yourself!

  • thumbs up if your here because of kesha!!

  • We are slaves!!! Wake-up, stop voting Democrat or Republican..... It is a scam... Democracy, Freedom of choice, it is an illusion... They are all in it together, and together they have all our votes... Well most of our votes...

  • INFOWARS INFOWARS INFOWARS INFOWARS INFOWARS INFOWARS FORECLOSURES ARE AN INSIDE JOB

    END THE FED END THE FED END THE FED END THE FED

  • I'm trying to understand this. If there was no mortgage and that the house was payed for, then what happened to the remainder of the equity? Is there no such thing as a reverse mortgage? Something is missing here.

    As a side note, I think that the Deputy Sheriff is sincerely concerned with what she has to do. If she didn't do this job, someone else would and they might not be as sympathetic. I am really sorry to see this happening.

  • why is the family even even participating in the eviction documentary? You have

    got to be a dum ass phfool! Then even the female cop 2centing the

    elite orders to do this,is she proud?.How can they do a follow up with you in

    makeup and shiny ass lips dum ass sheeple! Wake Up

  • and take an assessment of the hood.it has seen its days since it no longer

    provides crime,murder,babies, on a scale the gov't

    needs any more.Why not evacuate them no profit is

    being made its washed up,futile concentration camp

    is shut down,business is done.Its a wrap!

  • ke$ha brought me

  • How bout you folks get out the checkbook and help these people!

  • @imah8ter07 Great Idea !!

  • Comment removed

  • How can this be legal?

  • The American dream of owning a home is a nightmare. Proof that you never actualy own it. Your just a tenant and can be tossed out at anytime. Things are unraveling fast in this country and soon the real pain will start. Pay back time is comming.

    Hope and Change. Hope you like the change.

  • @nailerfx - This woman losing her paid-off home because of $500 is wrong on so many levels I have blood squirting out of my eyes. How can we as Americans allow this to happen?

  • @dweber66 because socialism has failed check out what's going on in europe, enjoy the show, america is next and we aren't even nearly as much socialists as europe is...

  • This is the saddest story I've ever heard. The value of family and peoples lives are being measued by their ability to bailout a corrupted and incompetant City Government in debt. Past due water bills being included in the criteria for Tax lein sales is immorale and inexcusable. I think the Citizens of Baltimore should collectively get lawyers with the same morales and mentality displayed by the City's leadership.

    "GET PAID"!!!

  • Mat 5:3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

    Mat 5:4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

    Let the world take it all... My home is in heaven. My most treasured and valued possession I have in THIS world, is my Savior, Jesus Christ, and when HE comes, ohhhhhh, it WILL be different. This vid just shows the greed of Man at its best. America will not escape the judgments of God. Even so, Lord, even so.

  • As far as the investors "having nothing to do with it".... Pay attention!!! They're buying DEBT!!!!! for profit...(thinking about it in a "legal" racketeering sense)... As far as drugs go give me a break.., There's druglords right now fighting with American sold weapons... America is famous for supplying South America with weapons for one cause or another... Hence "Chickens coming home to roost"... Illegal aliens followed the same route as the Baltimore DRUG TRAFFICKERS... nATIONWIDE...

  • Lagan Sebert for Mayor of Baltimore (Y) ;)

  • Wow Baltimore. Detroit feels your pain.

  • ..... I thought the abortion clinic bombers and Waco compound shooters were crazy.... After the 2008 Obama election "Conservatives" cleaned out the gun shops just for this very reason.... Baltimorians rather shoot each other down in the streets than take back their own homes or city.... Instead of city officials bringing jobs to town... They rather blow up the "levies"....

  • just another day in the empire.

  • @commanderofthemeek As i said, we hav the best social systemn in the world, but it costs us a lot of money. I wonder how long we keep it up. Obama did a good thing with the new health care.

  • Its sad to see my country (mainly politicians/bankers in our country) have a backwards way of thinking. Their is no justice.

  • why cant these people get a bailout like the billionaire bankers. this country has gone to shit and its getting worse.

  • @yay78900 because these people would never re-pay the bailout money... like the banks have the ability to. come on she couldn't afford to pay 300 dollars for a water bill but can afford to pay for a storage facility for her crap??? give me a break, she's an idiot.. got what she deserves...

  • shit i shouldnt have put the captions on now Im dieing of laughter im sorry

  • This is just another example of the perverted justice system in America. The poor are taken advantage constantly!!!! What the heck. Kicked out of a house for a water bill!!!!!! The city official who authorized this should be stripped naked and beaten with a rubber hose!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!

  • Let me just say that investor did not "snatch" anything, they acted according to the laws that are currently in place and have been in place for a long time. People, I feel, have this tendency to blame someone when the only ones to belame are the voters in that district allowing their politicians to keep such bad laws on the books to begin with. Time to start pointing that finger at yourself.....

  • So it makes it okay to take from the poor because of a city ordinance?

  • @ricardobuchanan no it makes it ok because she was an idiot. she made the choice to not pay her bill and not take any action while all this took place...

  • What a sad story !!!

    How is that passible in such a rich country.

    This will not happen in my country.

    Ruud Mulder

    Netherlands

  • @ruudjemulder hahahahaha you are joking right?? your country has more debt than greece "External debt (as % of GDP): 376.6%" you guys are more than 3 times worse than here in the US... you are joking right???

  • @RLWSNOOK410 I am seriously.

    We have a deficit of about 4 percent. This should be a 3 procent.

    The Dutch and the Swiss had the best financieal system until the Euro came.

    Greeche, Spain and Portugal are terrible.

    Take care

  • @ruudjemulder Lol your nation as a whole has a debt to GDP higher than almost any. 4th worst nation in terms of having debt to GDP. A level at which is not able to be paid back. It'd take 100% of your GDP almost 4 years to pay off your countries debt. Once there is a another recession in europe which is coming soon. Your banks will be underwater. and your government will then take on that debt.

  • @RLWSNOOK410 And the best social system, but but that costs us a lot of money

  • @ruudjemulder hahaha your social system as you say is expensive, it will have to be cut once the private debt gets put on the public... It isn't sustainable with a debt to GDP level your nation as a whole has.

  • i don't feel bad for her, if she lost her house it's because she is just lazy, as all blacks are lol.

  • y TU, COMO PUEDES DECIRT ESO CUANDO TODOS LOS ILLIGALES ESTAN TOMANDO LOS TRABAJOS DE LOS aMERICANOS!! nO TIENES rAZON!! rACIST pIG

  • It's a fine example of property rights being trampled by the government. You no longer own your house. You rent... its a sham.

  • IS she fo real ? LOOKS like slums,Why didnt she get off her ass and get a JOB,BOSTON COME ON !!!,SHE OWED 3,000,isnt thare a burger king or MCDONALDS in BOSTON,WHAT A LAZY COW !!!

  • @trapptowers Cheap food are high in trans fat and other chemicals that give the food longer shelf life. Also a lot of food aid are high protean and substandard foods that are donated often cause you to pack on weight.

  • @ShadeRage2007 BULL SHIT! NO OBEAST PEOPLE IN ETHEOPIA,EXCUSE LADY !!!

  • @trapptowers Unfortunatly there are fat people in Etheopia and they find that fat women are quite attractive. This is from a 2006 article "56 percent of South African women are now either obese or overweight, compared to fewer than 10 percent who are underweight." -AP

  • @ShadeRage2007 THATS an overall percentile of south africa including South Africa has a sophisticated financial structure with a large and active stock exchange that ranks 17th in the world in terms of total market capitalization. The South African Reserve Bank (SARB) performs all central banking functions. The SARB is independent and operates in much the same way as Western central banks, influencing interest rates and controlling liquidity through its interest rates Except for ETHIOPIA.

  • @trapptowers Perhaps their aren't enough jobs that she could get to since after all, she was taking care of her father. Also the remark of calling someone a lazy cow is damn right uncalled for!

  • @voltrathunder1 DID YOU EVEN SEE THE VIDEO,BALTIMORE IS WHERE SHE LIVES,LOTS OF WORK IN BALTIMORE AND SHE IS IN THE HEALTH CARE FIELD ,THAT MEANS LOTS OF JOBS,MORE THAN ANY OTHER INDUSTRY GOOGLE IT! SHE IS JUST LAZY AND WANTS WELFARE,LOOK AT HER SHES BEEN GETTING FEED MONEY FROM SOMEWHERE!!!

  • I have a part of the solution to our water woes. Perhaps we should start using kitty litter. As in humans.

    I mean why not? Billions upon billions of gallons would be saved. We're always trying to 'stretch' our water rather than devise ways to just simply not use it in certain respects.

  • This is a shining example of bullshit. Wannabe news channel, like a mini Fox35 in disguise.

  • Protip: It's "alzheimers", not "alt-heimers" or "old timers" or whatever the narrator says at 1:31.

    HuffPo - where gossip and celebrity columnists pretend to write news stories.

  • @davidisaurus very true, very true

  • However, if there isn't a in your face threat. Like a 'Pay or it's off' notice on your door. People will/can and do procrastinate as longs as they can. But to take a home in lieu of turning it off isn't right in my eyes.

  • I must say that I'm torn on this issue. If you go to the website of Huffington and read the whole article. You'll see that the city of Baltimore doesn't shut it off for delinquency. They place a lein on the house. She wasn't working because she was taking care of her dad-understandable.

  • Ok, why in the world did this woman not pay the 300 dollar bill?!?! I'm sorry but I do not feel bad if someone doesn't pay their bills and they loose their property.. She wasn't fired, she quit her job.

  • @RLWSNOOK410 To take care of hers father

  • @carla31brown She was wearing a gold necklace, gold earrings ect... You can not tell me she could not have paid the 300 dollar bill.. And then a few years go by and she doesn't do anything. come on this lady had it coming... I do not feel bad for her at all.

  • @RLWSNOOK410 And how do you know that the gold is real medcation cost you know

  • @carla31brown why didn't she sell her house? gone back to work? sold some of her china, sold some of the crap that she left and will never get back?? i mean really the stupidity of people amazes me... 300 bucks, really? Did no one she knew really have 300 dollars to loan her??

  • If you were listening to the video it was "stated" that the auction was done without notifying her that this action was going to be taken!!!! She didn't know ! If you knew that your house was going to sold for 700 dollars wouldn't you have sold your car!

  • @ricardobuchanan she knew that she had bills she hadn't paid... what'd she think that they were going to forgive her for not paying them.. give me a break

  • @RLWSNOOK410 its called she didn't have the ~$300, what was she to do? write a bad check? and yea she quit, to take care of her sick father; what a monster! she TOTALLY deserved this amirite?

  • @zombikilla92 if she didn't have 300 dollars how did she eat? How did she afford anything? My guess is she just didn't keep track of her finances... and felt she was entitled to not pay her bills... She got what she deserved...

  • @RLWSNOOK410 When you have a $300 dollar unpaid water bill, they turn off your water, not sell your house off to some corporate fat cats who's job is to pervert the economy and take advantage of the helpless. This should be Illegal in ALL states.

  • @zombikilla92 right but you still owe them for the 300 bucks... you don't get to not pay your debt... and they have the right to charge interest on this loan they gave to you... She had years to work out something with them but did nothing... this all started back in 2006 you really think she didn't have debt collectors ect on her all the time... she just was irresponsible and lazy..

  • @RLWSNOOK410.... Some how you got the details screwed up.... This was an $300. dollar "utility bill".... An investment group- paid off her utility ( w/o her consent)... "this was no loan or interest that she'd agreed to".... Which the "investment group" lobbied the city for her residentail property for her 362.00 utility bill and 388.00 in property taxes.... Eviction?... Now I could respect a utility company who took people to court first... I can respect the lobbied CITY officials though....

  • @HiRoader11 Did this lady get 300 dollars worth of water service? Clearly she did. She was given the water prior to paying for it, hence the loan. The city attempted to get payment for this loan but could not get it so they sold ie transfered the loan to another entity to collect the monies owed.

    The loan was not paid off by the investment group rather bought\ transfered to them. It would not matter if they held it or the state, the same thing would have happened

  • @RLWSNOOK410 Surely you've got the process mixed up..., the "utility company" not in the loan business., Their product is water supply.... There nothing in their consumer agreement about interest rates..(late fees?).., Plus their consumers never agreed to do business with a third party... Nor did they agree to involve the city in their water utility debt ... what, grabbing property for less than $750.00 now?...

  • @RLWSNOOK410 ....Asking yourself why would a city's government rush to board up most of its city's homes and put families out on the streets., for debts under one thousand dollars?.....

  • @HiRoader11 They didn't, however, they need this money to pay bills of their own. Hence the reason they sold the loan and got their money out right away.

    Here is something for you to try. Don't pay a balance on your credit card... for 4 years see what happens to that balance. This is what happened to this woman.

  • @RLWSNOOK410 ..... I agree with the "4 yr credit card premiss"..... But there's no where in the consumer, utiliy company agreement about confiscating $362. dollars worth of real estate..... Surely you seen the blocks of boarded up homes there's a land grab frenzy (houses for less the 1,000. dollars a pop) going on and families being put out on the streets..... The city officials are scum...

  • @HiRoader11 There is no difference between a utility bill or a credit card bill when someone doesn't pay it for 4 years. This isn't about the principal, the reason her house was taken was not because of the 362 dollars it was up close to 4 grand by the time they confiscated her property. Her using the water was a loan because she didn't pre-pay for it. If you don't pay a loan they have the right to charge you interest on that loan. She is the scum by not paying her bills...

  • @RLWSNOOK410 Say what you want..., It doesn't explain city blocks of "empty" boarded up homes brought by out of town investors..., While homeless families scramble for places to live....

  • @HiRoader11 giving handouts makes things worse and will further the class division. That is about the worst idea anyone could do. Welfare is a system set up to keep the poor poor and dependent on the rich.

    Remember though the reason this neighborhood went downhill was because of drugs. The investors have nothing to do with the issue at hand.

  • @RLWSNOOK410 It's legalized "racketeering".... As far as the investors having nothing to do with it..... And as far as the drugs go., Just like the 30 million illegal immigrants nationwide., People in certain places & positions just simply have to look the other way...... What was called racketeering in the 20.s and 30's has become legal once the right hands get their share.... bootleg booze, numbers, loansharking, DEBT buying, .... (the godfather) "politics-crime thier both the same thing"...

  • @RLWSNOOK410 You sound just like a banker!!! This is ridiculous. When is the last time someone got their house taken away for not paying a $500 credit card bill? Bankers and politicians are scum, they should be locked away for printing money out of thin air and trying to collect interest on it. They lend out the easy credit to people who can't pay it back and then they are surprised?! Then they get bailed out!

  • @jamezbond78 very few people are stupid enough to not pay a bill for 4 years and let their house get taken because of it. Now that being said this lady was.

    This has nothing to do with the bail out however, you know the tax payer actually made money off of bailing out the big banks. If you want to get angry at the banks at least get angry at them for having the govt loan them money at almost 0% interest and then allow them to lend that money back to the govt where the govt pays interest

  • @RLWSNOOK410

    The taxpayer didn't make money off of the bailouts. The Federal deficit is insurmountably huge. There is no way that the balance is now "in the black." The USA is being looted. The price of gold was around $200/ounce in the year 2000 and now it is over $1200/ounce. Gold did not "go up," rather, it takes 6 TIMES as many dollars to buy the same ounce of gold, meanwhile, the official rate of inflation is only reported at 2.24% +/-. There are cheaters, and the cheated.

  • @dontpanicjack Just because the government makes money off of one thing doesn't mean the deficit is going to go down. And bailing out the banks is one thing they made money on. Obama just used that money and then some...

    As for gold, in markets some things are undervalued. Gold currently is undervalued. When the shit hits the fan which it likely will in 2-3 years from now. You are going to want to own some... as it will re-value to the correct rate.

  • This is a scam, pure and simple.

  • It really makes me wonder what the U.S. will look like in just another twenty years or so. Things could look shocking in just another ten. Tent cities and FEMA encampments?

  • To the cop: Are you proud of yourself? Job well done? If you don't cry at night after this, you're not human.

  • @scharpilienne The cop was just doing her job she wasn't forcing anyone out she was just making sure that no one was in the house because they could be liable or sued if they were stuck in the house

  • To Huffington: Nice film; but why don't you share the money you made off this story with the lady losing her home? You probably made over 10.000; give her 4.000 and she keeps her house.

    Or did you prefer to film her losing everything she has...

  • just goes to show that ownership of private property in Amerika does not exist...it's just an Amerikan dream

  • @holidayhouse03 "Amerika" doesn't exist. I've never heard of it.

  • @g0thman

    This much is true...you have been lied to...and just because you have not heard of something does not mean it does not exist.

  • @holidayhouse03 So tell me about this "Amerika".

  • @AntBanks2626 Before you go around calling people an "idiot', learn the difference between your and you're as well as buy and by. People get put out of their homes for failing to live up to their financial agreements--not because you feel like demonizing banks that enable most people to buy homes.

  • "alltimers"?

  • DAMMIT obama! We wouldnt be in this shit hole if it werent for you

  • @Nunchucks67 WRONG! don't blame obama for what BUSH did. Just because Obama hasn't fixed it yet doesn't mean he caused it, because he DIDN'T.

  • @antbanks2626 I was not aware she got cancer from something she ate? She is a slug like you and deserves to be left on the street if she can not come up with a few hunderd bucks over the course of several months.

  • Comment removed

  • @AntBanks2626 what is deceptive about trying to force people to pay their bills? If you owe money, you should pay it, or else have your possessions taken away from you. This woman owed money, but thinks she is an exception to the rule of having to re-pay her debts. I can empathize with people who lose everything, but it doesn't mean anyone should get something for nothing.

  • Please check out my videos

    you will like it

    just watch!

    Thank you for the attention!

  • Omg!!!Come on I feel so awful there has to be another way...That poor woman and many other families homeless because of this....!!!!It's NOT FAIR!!!!All my compassion to those who have gone threw this!

  • @Misklassiestkittykat Compassion for what? I have no compassion for those who make poor financial choices and make those who pay their bills suffer for it. The city has every right to recover what it is owed and, although this method was rather unusual, is fully justified.  I'm sick of having to pay more for everything just because some people won't take some self responsibility and pay their bills.

  • Why are Americans screwing Americans????!!!!!???? This is OUTRAGEOUS!

  • Well since Baltimore doesn't have "levys" you guess invisible jobs and late paid water bills will do the trick...Huh?....

  • I'm not buying it... ...if they couldn't pay the water bill, why didn't the water get shut off? Why didn't they shut off the electricty too? And why not take out a mortgage on the house first to pay the bills? This "documentary" reeks of deception.

  • @carawilcox Water is pretty important....what's the point of a house without water/electricity. There isn't much you can do.

  • water is so cheap lol. their fault if they can't buy such a small debt.

  • You've got to admit... When your low income and you've voted these people into office... There's some real low-throat cutting shics to put your constituences out on the streets instead of bringing jobs to your city..... The lobbyist win!!!

  • Ke$ha`s bro is sooooo weird....

  • @KeshasLittleBitch Where is he?

  • A water bill? Really??? Something smells fishy here... Baltamore my be useing this 'Excuse' in order to clean up the "Bad" neighborhoods, in order to tear down the old structures and build New ones for Richer familys to live in, and clean up the city. Large citys do this all the time.

  • THIS IS CRAZY

  • Why didn't the city just TURN THE WATER OFF. That's what they do in civilized places.

  • Why doesn't the guy who wants to change the law pay for the bill himself? Why do people who actually pay their bills have to be responsable for her as well? He could sell his suit and 5 people could save their homes yet he wants to be selfish and look dapper.

  • We're talking about a utility bill here., A utility bill?., A freakin $360. dollar utility bill according to the law makers, Ultility bills puts the whole property into forclosures?... Thats the cities and states fought for putting their (more) people in the streets.....

  • In most of Virginia, it is easier to get help with foreclosure than with water bills!

  • SHE quit her job, SHE did not pay her bills, she is the ony one to blame for this!!

  • @imah8ter07 I HOPE THIS HAPPENS TO YOU...I HOPE YOU GET CANCER AND THEN SOME OTHER ASSHOLE TELLS YOU THAT IT WAS BECAUSE OF WHAT U ATE AND ITS YOUR FAULT HAHAHAH THAT WOULD BE SO FUNNY TO ME

  • Baltimore should get rid of the Mayor. $400

  • @MaBuSt On a larger scale the whole country in debt, How do the law makers propose to resolve that expense when people like Vicki Valentine and her foreclosed community did not prosper or benefit one penny from?...

  • Bradmoulton1 ... it explains how the debt went from nearly $400 to over $3000. and it was no fault of her own. did you even pay attention ??

  • urban renewal. Baltimore style.

  • i am on the verge of packing my bags & movin to the uk

  • There are a few major facts missing from this age old story of the man evicting the minority. What other income did this lady have? What other bills did she have? A water bill is about $400 dollars a year. She must not have paid it for almost 10 years to get it up to $3600. Did she not understand she had a water bill and had to pay it? The makeup she is wearing looks like it is from Zephora. How did she afford that?

    This is the usual Huffington clever liberal truth distortion.

  • Land of opportunity!

  • If I were on food stamps I would eat much better.

  • kfc

  • This should not happen. Ever. Anywhere.

  • This is probably happening after a study done showed that they city looses tons of money from this population in the long run not paying their bills, not a temporary thing. You might say ' oh thats horrible ' but at the same time, the city going into debt is the people going into debt and is exactly what everyone is trying to avoid. This policy isnt one that just happens to be in place, its in place for a reason.

  • Hey, To Lagan i think thats his name. Im glad your sister Ke$ha is supporting your stuff. Shes helping you out. Good Job and keep up the work

  • Baltimore is revitalizing in other neighborhoods

  • She obviously had plenty of money for food and lipstick, though. She looked like ten pounds of sh*t in a two-pound bag. LOL!

  • Tax on personal property, wage and food is cruel.

  • This is called propaganda. I'm sure this woman was given dozens of opportunities to pay her waterbill in a resonable manner with a payment plan or the such. I'm sure she was sent dozens of letters explaining to her what would happen if she did not pay. I'm sure she still had cable tv and a cell phone. Fact is she chose not to pay because she did not want to stay. The video started with her saying how bad the neighborhood has gotten. She made a choice and suffered the consequences.

  • @73laugh I hope you die in a fire.

  • @lolpaladindps What a mature response to a genuine concern. Any other 5 year old minded snippets you want to add to the discussion?
