Generation gap

Ed, this is to area landlords. I have lived on Nottingham Way for about 39 years and raised two kids, now grown and college educated. The landlords are renting out homes without screening the tenants, and that is not fair to us homeowners. As you know, Hamilton’s taxes are higher and it’s a shame we have to pay more and have to live next to loud noise and partying. It’s not fair. Who do you call? The police don’t know what’s going on unless someone calls them. The people next door moved in last fall. They have kids and parties every weekend with loud music, car music. It’s just terrible. I need your help.
Screener
If those darn kids next door are making sufficient noise to disturb the peace, then the police can step in. But I can’t regulate their landlord’s rental policy. Sorry. —Ed. Note

These low life landlords don't screen the tenants, because they would first have to have their property inspected. And they don't want that. Most absentee landlords are renting dangerous, filthy,slum structures to people who will live anywhere at any time and the landlords know it. The landlords only want money and the unscrupulous tenants know it. I'm sure some type of ordinance speaks to this issue, but no one seems to want to handle these matters. I say call the newspaper and let the world know. Also, the landlords should be fined.

Ya think you're using a wide enough brush? If you stereotyped any "protected" group of people like you just did the "low life landlords," imagine the uproar.
