Coatesville Dems: About Dogs, threats and Chester County Politics.

Welcome to the Coatesville Dems Blog

Public Corruption in Chester County, PA

I believe an unlikely mix of alleged drug trafficking related politicos and alleged white nationalist related politicos united to elect the infamous “Bloc of Four” in the abysmal voter turnout election of 2005. During their four year term the drug business was good again and white nationalists used Coatesville as an example on white supremacist websites like “Stormfront”. Strong community organization and support from law enforcement, in particular Chester County District Attorney Joseph W. Carroll has begun to turn our community around. The Chester County drug trafficking that I believe centers on Coatesville continues and I believe we still have public officials in place that profit from the drug sales. But the people here are amazing and continue to work against the odds to make Coatesville a good place to live.

Coatesville candidate: Someone killed my dog

Nothing new here in Chester County it’s, “just politics”.

“Just politics” includes loosening front wheel bearings on candidate’s vehicles as allegedly happened to Coatesville resident and now Coatesville City Councilperson Ingrid Jones when she was running for Magistrate Judge.

Throwing a rock with a threatening note through the Chester County Democratic Committee headquarters, stealing files and computers from Democratic Presidential Campaign offices and the credible threats on Obama Staff in Coatesville,” just politics”.

And there was the alleged “death threats” to me and Eric Collins at a Coatesville Planning Commission Meeting, all “just politics” in Chester County.

Schenk, in tough guy mode, rode to the Planning Commission on his Harley. Richard Legree was at that Planning Commission Meeting. But he appeared to be reluctant to be there and I think he was peeved with Campos, Walker, Schenk Ray and the rest of them sitting in at the meeting.

Richard shook his head when I shouted out, “ARE YOU THREATENING US?” and Walker, Schenk, Ray fell over each other running out of the room.

Let’s just say that Ernie Campos is the kind of guy that does things that you just can’t make up.

During the “Bloc of Four” campaign there was a “dog threat” with a surprise ending.

As was told to me, Eric Collins walked across the street from his home to talk to his neighbor. Pat Sellers had just put a campaign sign up for Kurt Schenk who was running for Coatesville City Council. Eric had a Pug dog back then and there was a pug dog beside Eric. Pat Sellers came over and allegedly said something like, “Eric, you better keep an eye on your little dog, something could happen to it.” His neighbor immediately took down the “Kurt Schenk for Coatesville City Council” sign. The pug was her dog.

Now we have a dead dog and maybe an arson fire.

I think it’s that huge vacuum left when Richard Legree passed on. It’s indiscriminately sucking people into it.

No finesse, no charm, you can’t even make sarcastic comments about dead dogs; it’s just plain disgusting.

Anyone missing Richie Legree yet?
