Karen McLaughlin, who is opening the new children's store on Center Street, became one of my favorite people at this morning's Downtown Rutland Partnership meeting.
Discussing the teenagers who have apparently been engaging in various forms of misbehavior in and around the parking garage, she said "They're not going to intimidate me -- I lived in Miami."
There are times when some people start talking like Rutland has sections that could just as easily be the West Baltimore of "The Wire." It's nice to have an occasional injection of perspective into our public discourse.
