The quietude of the Dog Days of Summer in Quincy came to an abrupt end this week given two controversial to say the least events.
Very controversial events.
One entailed the City of Quincy evicting seven homeless families.
The families were under arguable Church Sanctuary via their sheltering at a temporary camp site at a local church.

These homeless migrants had previously been evicted from the grounds of the Wollaston Red Line MBTA station where for roughly a week recently as they were daily dropped off at the station with no place to go and were so spending the night sleeping on the grounds of the T station.
Accordingly, Faith Lutheran Church on Quarry Street took them in and providing them with shelter via a modest collection of small tents on the church’s surprisingly expansive and bucolic out of the way grounds.

After all, we are in prime time for camping.
The de facto eviction notice called for a(n immediate) cease and desist of the providing of shelter for those homeless by the church as well as that the notice did not afford any apparent quarter so as to have a bit of time so as to come up with other sheltering arrangements.
So what, apparently for the fact that there have long been homeless camping on on city property and thus the church was to to do do as the City of Quincy says even if it does not itself do so.

And the other outrage of the week, heavy rainstorm notwithstanding, Free Karen Read supporters come out in force to picket outside of the Quincy Elks Lodge as the Elks’ Tirrell Room had been rented out by the deservedly under fire Norfolk County District Attorney Michael “Meatball“ Morrissey.
The reason for his rental of the Tirrell Room?
His annual summer fundraiser and what has long been an all but mandatory attendance event by at least Norfolk County public entity hacks and others who dine at the public trough.
This year, however, one can only wonder how many may have foisted excuses they could not attend.

That and instead just sent along their usual mordita “contributions” to Meatball’s campaign fund.
After all, Meatball may be needing the money to apply towards legal defense needs given rumblings that the rumored federal wiretaps on his work office and cell phone as well as his personal phones were done for good reasons.
“The Machine” will protect Meatball just as it keeps reelecting Koch. Don’t let The Machine fool you Quincy, it’s coming for you if you go against their handpicked candidates.
Ward,
One would hope that the Machine is running out of useful idiots. Case in point, just look to the rookie tool on a stool on the City Council.
Then again, this fool does have experience raising illegal campaign money …
How does Koch, who got the Cheverus Award from the Archdiocese for his Christian works, kick the homeless out of a camp at a church and so see small children sleeping outside at the Wollaston Red Line station? Maybe Quincy’s $285,000 dollar mayor could practice some Christian charity by putting up these families with children up at a local manger.
Francis,
How you ask?
Via basically the modern equivalent of dispensations. Koch has used millions of taxpayers money to buy surplus church property in Quincy — with more of the same expected — and so help out an archdiocese in serious financial straits given the heinous misdeeds of predatory perv priests.
