I wanted your opinions
Seriously, when I first heard Bremerton was going to put up intersection cameras to catch people who run red lights, two thoughts went through my mind. First, I didn’t know people actually ran a full red light in the middle of the night anymore, let alone the daytime for that matter. Even making an attempt could cause serious bodily injury to any unsuspecting driver but I was unaware of any accidents or deaths from a result of people blowing red lights. Secondly, I was surprised the city would be willing to invest so much money for camera’s just to help curb the so-called “running red light” problems Bremerton was facing.

6 months later, after traveling through 6 cameras per day for school and seeing countless flashes of light for some of the least significant offenses in Bremerton’s history, I now realize it was just another plan designed specifically to raise revenue for the projects of liberals who run the City of Bremerton. I quickly learned that it was “my” definition of running red lights that demanded changing according to the government. It was no longer the spirit of the law but it became the letter of the law, or should I say the second of the law.

As the citizens of West Bremerton struggle to support their daily, liberals in government have been investing heavily on revenue like these to support their overbearing budgets. From a $13 million dollar boardwalk to a $30.7 million underground tunnel specifically designed for aesthetics. And while the civilian economy is all but non-existent in West Bremerton, liberals in government are finding creative ways to raise revenue by charging the poorest citizens in Kitsap County. Regardless of the source of the funds, whether Federal, City or State, Bremerton is joining the long line of liberal cities in this nation where the government is number 1 in every aspect of our lives. Unfortunately, their concept of government is people are supposed to serve the government. The reality is the other way around where the government serves the people. Government teaches this boldly when the nicest and most expensive building in all of Bremerton happens to be the City’s main office. While citizens are finding creative ways to scrounge up an extra $100 to pay for a ticket, liberals in government are looking for new sources of income for their next big project. The disenfranchisement is becoming apparent.

Bremerton citizen,
