What part of democracy is this? Mofos getting fined for not clearing public sidewalks??? Oh hell to the fukk no

John Kerry fined $50 for failing to shovel snow outside home

BOSTON (AP) — John Kerry has many titles — secretary of state, former senator, one-time Democratic candidate for president.

The globe-spanning diplomat can add one more: snow shoveling scofflaw.

After a blizzard dumped two feet of snow on his city this week, Boston Mayor Martin Walsh vowed to crack down on anyone who left the sidewalks in front of their homes and businesses buried in snow.

He wasn't kidding.

On Thursday, officials tagged Kerry with a $50 fine at 9:45 a.m. for failing to clear the snow from the side of his Beacon Hill mansion.

Kerry was in Saudi Arabia attending the funeral of King Abdullah with President Obama.

Kerry spokesman Glen Johnson told the Boston Globe Kerry will promptly pay the fine. He said shovelers finished clearing the sidewalk late Thursday morning.

So for all the taxes people who live in the North East have to pay you still are required to clean up nature's mess... on public a public sidewalk????

We need a revolution, brehs

Yes.

And there's a time limit. That bytch better be shoveled and salted within 2 hours after the snow stops


i know someone who twisted their ankle on an unsalted sidewalk (it was shoveled, just not salted) and cashed out $50,000 on the head of that homeowners insurance.

 

[TRY GOD]

Why else do you think people shovel shyt they dont want to?

 

[frush11]

Yes, can't stand folks who don't shovel their sidewalks, especially muffuccas who don't salt the damn place after they finish(might as well not even do it).

 

[Rawtid]

Why wouldn't you shovel your damn sidewalk? It's yours!! Plus people have to travel all up and down those sidewalks...kids walking to school, mailman or whatever. Shovel your shyt, son.

It's a public sidewalk. I shouldn't be responsible for public property. Thats what makes sense to me

I mean.... dont you guys pay a sh!t load of taxes? Shouldn't those sh!t load of taxes cover that?

I mean tell me if this makes sense: The city builds and maintains the sidewalk when it needs repairs. Said city should also maintain said sidewalk

@Fart Knocker

Yes i live "down south" and snow is not common here. The few times it snows and covers the ground it ends up melting within 2 to 3 days. No need to harass citizens from their daily lives to shovel no fukken snow.

But I'm saying as much taxes as people "up north" pay to the cities themselves why is this not part of the services rendered by the city?

 

[Boogie]

Cac outrage.

I know when I used to talk home from school if yo shyt wasn't shoveled we would throw hard ass snowballs at your window
