Because Johns Island roadways have been the subject of much review and study in the past fifteen years;

Because numerous accidents and fatalities still occur due to driving at excessive speeds, driving under the influence and other causes;

Because consistent law enforcement would help decrease instances of bad driving behavior, speeding, and driving under the influence;

Because, amid other study of whether to build new roads, law enforcement and review of speed limits of current roads would be more cost-effective and increase the safety of existing roads immediately;

Because we have seen the success of increased law enforcement and subsequent lower fatalities first hand at US-17 South in Gardens Corner;

We the undersigned are requesting immediate county and/or state law enforcement on Main/Bohicket and River Roads, Johns Island, Charleston County to improve the safety of our existing roads.  With your help, law enforcement can become part of a comprehensive transportation management plan for traffic and safety issues on Johns Island.

New York State plans to close many state parks and historic sites as a budgetary measure. Philipse Manor Hall is one of the oldest colonial houses in the New York City area and costs a pittance to operate. Help the Friends of PMH in their campaign to keep it open to the public!

We want real and true skateboarding in the Olympics. We want pure sport spirit in Olympics, not busines trends. We want federations by and for skateboarders. We want opportunities, not doors closed. We want the pain is by doing tricks not just to can skate.

Queremos skateboarding real y verdadero en los Juegos Olimpicos. Queremos que el espiritu deportivo en los Juegos Olimpicos sea puro, sin tendencias comerciales. Queremos que las federaciones sean de y para patinadores. Queremos oportunidades, no puertas cerradas. Queremos que el dolor sea por hacer trucos no para poder patinar.
