That offense in most cases repeats to the next person thru who it happend to. Sex offenders, and I was inside, for a petty drug offense when weed was illegal, we'd watch pedos get killed second they hit Gen pop. They don't deserve a chance. They ruin people's lives. Sure someone who murders ends one, but which is worse, someone ending a life abruptly, or someone ruining someone else's mentally and spiritually and physically in some cases? With drug dealers, Noone forces anyone to do drugs, Noone says "if you don't take this hit of weed or coke IL kill you" that is personal choice. Murderers should obviously do time but pedophiles you cannot reform. Murderers you can, drug dealers you can reform, sex offenders you really cant

Maybe conservative in the traditional sense but literally the opposite ideals of the republican party.

Heard nothing but awful things about that place. They’re likely seeking desperate people who are willing to work in shit conditions for mediocre pay.

Reply to comment by AdHistorical7107 in Why is Connecticut specifically the coast line so underdeveloped in respect to shopping, housing, and entertainment? by Teslatron2049
It is for the current property owners and people likely to buy there, they buy there because it’s not the Jersey shore. People buy on Nantucket and upper cape because it’s not the Jersey shore.

You say that as if the insurance company was going to pay for the treatment in that state that still prohibits aid in dying. They'll offer both patients the treatment that barely addresses the symptoms as they were understood in 1973.

It is, but ASML Wilton is responsible for building critical modules of their EUV machines as well as some other products.

I mean, drug dealers have the potential to ruin not only people's lives/families, but also neighborhoods, and well, murderers literally take a life away. You're saying anyone of a sex crime should get life compared to them, which isn't reasonable. As with any crime, it depends on the severity, etc. , and it's not always fair, but you don't sound very reasonable. A small offense shouldn't land someone in jail for life.
The law and rulings don't always make sense, and there is room to improve, but I think you're going too aggressively in one direction.

The elementary school next to me is inside a college campus (trade school) and there is a sex offender working in the building. That is wild to me...
Edit: just check now, he is gone

There’s 106. Also a lot of back roads from 33. So it’s not just route 7.

Wilton is building some housing, which is good, but the town government of Wilton is notoriously anti-growth and anti-more homes.
90% of the land in Wilton requires that homeowners have at least 2 acres of land for each home. They also have been blocking the expansion of their sewer system to allow for denser developments near their train stations, even when developers are willing to pay the entire cost of extending that sewer line.
Wilton doesn’t simply need “affordable” housing, but housing for the people that ASML is hiring without those employees needing to displace current residents in order to move in. Developers desperately want to build these homes and can make a big profit by building them. But Wilton blocks them, so new ASML hires either need to displace current residents (driving up rents and home prices) or make excessively long commutes making traffic worse for everyone.

Interesting and kind of goes along with what I was saying. They wouldn't be able to pay warehouse wages around Wilton and keep it regularly staffed due to the high CoL, whereas Newburgh is more economically distressed and able to better support those wages

Yea, but it's a crappy commute from almost anywhere. Stuck on single lane Rt 7 from the north, or 95/parkway traffic from the east/west.
All I was trying to say with my original comment is they would be able to grow significantly bigger within the state if they were located more centrally to commute to. Middletown/Cromwell or up by Bradley

Idk if you've looked on a registry, you should. The amount of sex offenders on your block or near you would probably surprise you, then look into their crimes you'd be surprised that they got off ao easy or not airholed inside

As a conservative, I will always allow the choice of the individual over the choice of the state.
