6 Days in Bangor. A city in peril. The people of Bangor, Maine are being forced to live in terrible conditions. Leaders like Michael Beck, Susan Faloon, Daniel Carson, Joseph Leonard and Angela Walker are going to continue this downward spiral. Right next to Bangor is the city of Brewer....The Brewer Police chief CLEANS up any problem as soon as it pops up. But Bangor PD? It seems as though everything is legal in Bangor.

When city councilors add committee members based on identity instead of competence, this is what you get. Are these really the people Bangor wants making decisions on race and homelessness? Teresa Fallon has spent years in the Bangor area treating many disagreements as evidence of racism. She is not a private citizen. She sits on the Advisory Committee on Racial Equity, Inclusion, and Human Rights with a term running through 2028. That makes her a public figure. Public figures get criticized. She signed up for it. Teal Vasques was just appointed to the new Advisory Committee on Homelessness. Last I checked, Teal used she/they pronouns. Teal was born male. Respect the request if you want; it does not place anyone above scrutiny. Vasquez is also a semi-public figure now. Criticism of an appointed official is not harassment. It is the job of residents when the city puts someone on a committee that will shape policy. The local government is not a diversity seminar. These committees exist to give the council useful advice on real problems. Appointing people primarily because they check the right identity boxes or speak the current language of grievance is how you end up with issues. CHECK ME OUT AT THE MAINE WIRE ON ALL SOCIALS!!!

Apparently these people didn't come equipped with Xray vision?! Check me out at the The Maine Wire! At a protest about 2 months ago, there were some angry people there. I was not angry, but I did ask questions. People don't like questions. They like to be angry. My rules: - Be Respectful - Have compassion - Be happy Their rules: Act like this.....

A Friday night walk through downtown Bangor turned into an unexpected look at the city after dark. I ended up on the streets later than planned and watched City Councilor Joe Leonard spend a good half hour talking with a transgender bouncer, smiling the entire time. Nearby, men in dresses moved through the same blocks. I saw a theft happen in the open. I was approached repeatedly. One person tried to reach into my pockets looking for drugs. A number of people were clearly high and lingering on the sidewalks. This is what a Friday night in Bangor looks like right now. Follow along. And help by liking and sharing.... these unstable people are giving me death threats. I'll keep pressing if you keep supporting!
