Description
I think most of us enjoy music but when someone else's choice is imposed upon us, and even rattles the windows; I believe it goes beyond personal preference and encroaches on another's rights. I would also like to include the motorcycles without mufflers. This is a quality of life issue. If these vehicles were stopped and ticketed or even searched how much more pleasant would the city of Kingston be?

I dont think searching a car but a ticket for out of control NOISE IS JUSTIFIED....THE real issue is the safety..there is no way they can hear any thing in traffic.....
It is the speakers that they use and they are loud and out of control.
The motorcycles are just as bad because they sit in traffic and rem it up an d up ...they are stupid and bringing attention to themselves jut so they can annoy people then blast you back and ah yeah man i gotta mya rights....guess what so do we and there is noise control laws in effect ....

Hey let's start giving tickets for honking your horn and jaywalking while we're at it...oh wait! The cops are busy dealing with REAL problems like gangs and drug activity!
Let the cops do their jobs in trying to clean up our streets and make our city a safe place to raise our kids who will, yes, listen to loud music in their cars, but at least they'll be safe to walk down the street to the corner store without being propositioned.

I agree that the city is in decline. When I moved here 30 years ago, I loved how convenient everything was and how friendly it was. I also love the history. That's still true, but the litter, and how dirty and unkempt everything is, not to mention the amount of drug dealing that goes on, has gotten to me. And all the discussion about trash pick up! There are clean cities in the south where the refuse haulers pick it up in the back of the house. The cans never sit on the curb.

I suggest KNW, KIngston Neighborhood Watch as a place to gather, to contribute, in addition to the other organizations you work with. Whether your long term commitment is to Kingston or not, you've clocked time here, you've earned the right to have your words put out there, (street creds) to act in concert. D'Arcy has to my mind put up the structure of organization that can be effective, and is himself adept at bringing out the best of people, a whole range of people and interests. We don't need many, but we could use a core of good people who can be seen, have a voice, the support to use modern communication, social media in a focused, effective manner. Some of you guys: step forward, see if can work face to face within a common organization. Again, I suggest Kingston Neighborhood Watch. Let's find something we can agree on and get it done. Thanks. Let's get a Kingston Neighborhood Watch platform, say, for all the mayoral candidates to address.
