There are more than enough Catholics who don’t agree with the incumbent pope and there always have been - including canonized saints like St Teresa of Avila and St Catherine of Siena - both of whom chastised popes in their lifetime for misconduct or neglect of duties.

Have you driven on other states’ roads? Have you noticed how when you cross from Mass or NY to CT, the road becomes markedly smoother.

How on earth is Bolton behind downtown Hartford and Mansfield center?

Lots of those posting on this sub appear to be living in their parents' basement and have likely never held a job with significant income in their lives. For any household making $100,000 per year, which is modestly above the median CT household income, the most significant taxes, other than Federal, are CT income tax and property tax. In addition, sales tax and the car tax are significant.
All this talk of other fees is merely a diversion from the costs that impact families.
Depending on the state, income tax and/or property tax tend to be materially lower than CT. Alas, CT continues to drive spending higher without concern for the impact on families.

Not sure where you’re getting that NC has quality public schools. They’re ranked in the lower half of states. CT has some of the smallest class sizes in the nation, which is huge boon for teachers and students, and the most spending per student. Virginia seems fine based on a cursory search (though I wonder how areas like Arlington compare to places like Danville), but to claim NC is on par with us is bananas.

Is this list just how much $ spent per student?

Again learn how to fucking read. I was replying to your comment and how relying on our corrupt legal system is not a sufficient argument against vigilante justice. You’re literally attacking me for no reason.

Funniest converter theft I remember was the junkie who either passed out under the car or got knocked out by the object of his desires.

I like how they included “Milford” and “Milford City”. Not sure this poll has much merit.

I went to that show. It was the only show I went to there, and I was on the floor, but I thought the sound was excellent.

Aww, I grew up there. It was fine and we never had issues with theft or anything. But that was the late 80s to about 2010, so it’s been a while.

By that logic, the most vocally pro-LGBTQ people are transphobes / homophobes.

Yeah I know. When my parents sold their house they were paying $10k a year in property taxes.

Lived in Milford for 10 years. Its an amazing town. Just be warned home prices have grown a lot over the last 3 years, more than most places in CT. Its also over-crowded. If there's the tiniest lot available, someone will build on it. Parking downtown or at the beaches has become unbearable.
Some streets flood, including ones a mile away from the beach. There are some neighborhoods barely above sea level, so do your research. Those are obviously the ones on the water.
I still recommend it. Its got everything! But do your research. That can be said about any place.
