Should Downtown Mystic Have A Water Taxi?

Something to think about.

 

Parking in . Add in construction from the drawbridge and the streetscape project and finding a spot can be frustrating for even the most . And some people according to the Groton Town Council think the streetscape project is causing the area to permanently lose parking spots.

“Some people say we’re losing a lot of parking and wouldn’t it be lovely to have a water bus,” Groton Town Counciler Dean Antipas said at a Groton Town Council meeting attended by the Stonington Board of Selectman.

Antipas would like to see a connect the two sides of Mystic so that once people are parked they could easily get around the area. The idea was briefly discussed with no decisions made at the meeting, but we want to know what you think.

Should downtown Mystic have a water taxi? And if so should it be fee-based or free?

While I'm all for the values that the Ten Commandments gives us, I also don't want to be defenselessRead More because someone who chooses not to follow them is putting my life in danger. The Right to Bear Arms was created by men, for the purpose of the people of this country having a means to defend ourselves from people who mean us harm, or from a government who might seek to take away our arms for nefarious purposes. A very great man once said, "I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend with my life your right to say it." Just out of curiosity, if someone were to invade your home, and attack you and your family, putting your lives in danger, what would you be willing to do to defend your lives?

I agree. The bottom line is we're all defenseless if we are deprived of our right to bear arms. GunRead More restrictions do nothing to prevent criminals from getting and using guns. They simply impede law-abiding citizens from getting and using them to defend ourselves from the criminals. I don't want to be stuck at a gunfight with nothing more than a cell phone camera.
