I dont see how someone can be harrassed for using a public road. Even when state road blocks are set up there is some kind of public notice of it 1st. I could be wrong but seems like when there is going to be a road block it's on the news or in the paper or something 1st. And I dont understand about the no parking on the side of this public road either as long as the vehicle doesnt block the road then why does it matter. If a vehicle is parked on the side of a public road even a highway they put some kind of sticker on it and it's sits there with the sticker on it for at least 24 hours before it's towed. The Chattanooga police Dept. should be arresting the ones that are harrassing people for using a public road. I guarante you that If I stoped and harrassed every car that drove down a public road the police would be called and I would be asked to stop or go to jail ! Isnt that what some of our taxes are paid for the use of public roads ? I can see why this neighberhood would want to protect there homes and property theres nothing wrong with that but to do it to just harrass people for using a public road is just wrong ! Shouldnt matter if your in a Jaguar or a Jeep they should leave people alone for wanting to use a public road.

By using coupons and samples from sites like "Get Official Samples" I started noticing my bill go down to around $70 with a 30 to 40 percent savings and I had more food than ever before

Refinance mortgage rates going to go up for sure. Any body still thinking should just make use of the low rates. Do not wait and regret it is not that difficult to make it happen. Online is very easy check out either 123 Refinance before you check with the "major banks"

Have you seen the houses in that area?! They are the "Haves" and we are the "Have-nots", including you. The golden rule is that those who have the gold make the rules (or pay off politicians so they can break them).

What a terrible tragedy two innocent lives lost so early. Yet questions remain. Where were the parents? Who gave these two small ones such a grown up toy as the news suggests? Why were they on the road instead of their yard? WHERE WERE THEIR PARENTS???

It is in direct violation of the court order from August, 2010. It is very sad that the developers are bodly violating the court order. I will be seeking contempt of court charges. I have no choice. It is my only legal access to my property. I have been threatened by City of Chattanooga Police in the past (One of whom lives in the subdivision) for what trying to access my land? I obey the law and respect the home owners however the developers don't respect any of my rights! If they refuse to respect the court order they should suffer the consequences. Additionally, off roaders who park along the public road are ticketed. Just visit the same roads during the week and look at all the construction equipment, trucks with trailers and cars that park along the road. Many of which park in front of the No Parking At Any Time Signs which are posted. The City does nothing about the construction vehicles parked on the City roads. I have no problem with laws being enforced but do it fairly and equally. The City of Chattanooga does not have a good track record with being fair and equal when it comes to Aetna Mountain Road. The developers came in and obliterated my easement. In Tennessee blocking an easement is considered a tresspass. Did the develoeprs ever go to jail for this? Of course not. The police say it is a "Civil Matter" When the land was purchased by the developers it said, "Subject To Etna Mountain Road." They didn't respect that on their deed and now their is no respect for the court order!!!!

It's just another example of another idiot trying to take a gun through security. Why would anyone think that they could take a gun onto an airliner in their carry on luggage? It never ceases to amaze me that some people can be so stupid. http://www.bestcarry-onluggage.net
