    Has there been any real results from installing the traffic cameras? I know that the ones by my house don't always work so it just seems like a waste of resources there. They have probably helped reduce the amount of people that step on it when the light turns yellow but does that really solve any problems? or just teach us to rive faster in order to avoid the red lights?

    I saw an article this summer which argues they cause more rear end collisions when drivers slam on the brakes to avoid a ticket. Interesting read on both sides of the issue from ABC news. http://goo.gl/JKwmO

    I believe that traffic cameras cause many people to become fearful of red light intersections. Because of their fear, they sometimes don't pay as much attention to their own surrounding

    i think they should get rid of the traffic cameras. ive almost hit someone bc they slammed on the brakes unexpectedly. they can be hazardous

    I agree with Zac And Alexis. I hate it when its counting down, and you have to determine if you want to stop or speed up. Its very stressful!

    I think they should keep them. There good for safety and people can be more aware because they know they would get a ticket if not.

    I think they should get rid of them, people are more scared to get a ticket than to slam on their breaks surprising the car behind them, causing a fender bender accident.

    I agree with the ban. Sure, people run less red lights, but they have caused stoplights to be more of a danger. People start speeding more to make the light to not get a ticket or brake really hard and cause accidents.

    The crack came after Kimmel opened the show with April Fool's Day pranks by people putting scary images in car back-up cameras. He then added without prompting, "If I were in my car and getting ready to reverse and saw Donald in the backup camera, I'm not confident which pedal I'd push."

    It was inappropriate for Ted Cruz to make that joke.

    I think this is funny because i dont like most of Donald trumps "ideas". and id probably run him over also.

    I think that Ted Cruz and Donald Trump and almost every republican candidate this year has made a mockery of the Republican party. I mean do these candidates think?

    i agree i think he should run over donald trump cause if he becomes president then the country will go to s*** and no one is going to want him to have control.
  • mjones776 on 31 Mar 16
     
    I believe that he is entitled to his own opinion, and if he wants to share his opinion then he is allowed to. Him not liking Trump is okay, but his remark about running him over or whatever is maybe a little inappropriate, not the worst thing ever, but still maybe not something to say about our potentially near future president.

Mitt Romney 'dyed his face brown' to appeal to Latino voters - 1 views

    This was incredibly amusing to me. I would really like to doubt this was his intention (perhaps a terrible spray-tan mishap?), as you would have to think very low of your voters to do so purposely. However, he has also received a lot of flak for seemingly pandering to everyone for votes -- this certainly fits that image.

    if he did this on purpose i think that is absolutely ridiculous.
  • Eric Cavanaugh on 21 Sep 12
     
    That is crazy. I can't believe that he would do that.. let alone anyone doing that.l

    Pretty sure 47% of the Latino population is on government aid, so, he's just doing what he can to try and have any chance of winning the up coming election. After his comments, I am pretty sure he is going to struggle to gain anymore aide.

    even if he did "dye his face brown" i dont see how he think's that would get him more votes. probably was like ember stated that it was terrible spray tan or too much sun.
  • Alex Snipes on 28 Sep 12
     
    I really don't think Mitt Romney would do this because he is desperate for votes, I think the election is running a very close race. Again, he is only human, it could have been a bad spray tan or too much sun on his face or maybe someone who who was getting him "camera ready" put the wrong shade of make up on his face. It could be a number of possibilities, and for people to assume that he "dyed his face brown" to get more votes is ridiculous.

    The tactics politicians do to get any sort of votes, how desperate.

    An Ohio police officer is being praised for holding his fire even as a slaying suspect charged him, saying repeatedly, "shoot me." WLWT-TV in Cincinnati reported ( http://bit.ly/1EXuKaK ) the tense moments were captured Thursday on a body camera worn by New Richmond officer Jesse Kidder.

    I wonder, with things like this happening, if we're really making things as secure as they should be.
  • Evan Dreessen on 24 Mar 14
     
    The only reason he was able to do this was because the building is not finished on the inside. More security will be added once the inside is finished. Cameras, Alarms, etc.

    I'm pretty sure that elevator operator was fired over this. How do you let some kid convince you to take you up a building that is unfinished?
  • Abbey Tierney on 25 Mar 14
     
    i wonder how he convinced people to get up to the top, how did they not figure out that he wasn't supuse to be there
