A written statement from the Emmaus Police Department confirms that the search for the Sovereign Bank robber has concluded for today. No one was arrested.

once again society and our way of life are in danger as the police fail to do their job

Thank you, Emmaus PD and others, for your efforts. We know you are doing your best. Today is another day.

How can a guy with a gun not be a threat to the neighborhood?

I hope they get this guy. I can't determine the perpetrator's race from the picture. But the only description that I've seen is that he is light skinned. That seems vague and maybe too politically correct. Is he black or white? It might help to know.

Rob,
You, and a couple of pseudonymmed alter-egos, seem to take every opportunity to change the topic in an effort to exploit every discussion here on Patch as a venue to attack me for having the courage of my convictions. It certainly appears that you don't want anyone elected who will oppose you and your cronies' agenda of control.
I have not had a single negative comment regarding my exercise of my rights (other than from you and your alter-egos here), but I HAVE had a number of supportive comments.
On the other hand, I have had many, many negative comments about the way that you, your current colleagues, and some township employees and the negative effects your actions have on the people's rights.
I AM interested in becoming a supervisor to better the community - by working to remove unnecessarily restrictive, financially burdensome controls that shouldn't have been enacted in the first place.
I'm sure that the people who read patch would appreciate it if you'd stop trying to hijack every topic thread here in an effort to mount an attack on me.

Yeah Ok Mr Stevenson, I am sure any normal person is going to go up to a person that they don't know and tell them that carrying a weapon exposed bothers them, thats gonna happen.
And I am still waiting to hear what burdensome restrictive controls you are talking about. Lots of talk no substance. be specific please. And did I miss where you answered where you were when the zoning and SALDO was redone last year ???
As far as the negative comments about myself, colleagues, and township employees, My personal, business and township door is ALWAYS open to discuss anything and I have never turned an ear to anyone, and every township meeting is open to the public with lots of time set aside for public imput. I can gladly give you a list of the people I have personally helped. So if there is negative comments on the way i have handled myself please feel free to contact me anytime, I will do my best to fix anything if it is WITHIN my powers. As far as mounting an attack on you Mr. Stevenson I am just trying to bring all sides to the table. You are the one hat has criticised how the township is run, I feel it is my right to defend our community

Rob,

After this, I will not respond to off-topic attacks in this thread.
1) Carrying a weapon for self-defense is a right. It requires no explaination or apology. However, neither I nor millions of other law-abiding Americans who carry guns routinely present a threat to anyone and I am always willing to discuss the subject calmly and rationally with anyone. see http://pasdrl.org
2) I was not involved in your re-write last year. I was disabled for most of last year by a very serious accident where I broke my neck in 3 places. (excuse me :-)
3) I don't see how restricting people's rights is "defending our community" ... I believe that protecting people's rights is defending our community and that's my political philosophy (which you seem to vehemently oppose)
Take further discussion to a more appropriate venue.

Sorry to hear of your unfortunate accident, but the rewrite had been going on for years, I have been involved with the township planning commission for roughly 3 or 4 years and before your election bid had never heard of you. So prior to your accident there was many ways that if you were so unhappy with the current or past zoning you could have voiced your opinion. The plannning Commission is the appointed body that makes the recomondations to the Supervisors, The Supervisors are the ones that adopt it after full review by Lehigh Valley Planning Commission. who also recomended it. I think there was alot of hard work put into this to lesson the need for interpitation, variances and retain our rural community.
No needs to discus your thoughts on carrying a weapon. like I said before your "Right" comes before making people feel comfortable.
Mr Stevenson quote " I don't see how restricting people's rights is "defending our community" ... I believe that protecting people's rights is defending our community and that's my political philosophy (which you seem to vehemently oppose) "
Rob Sentners actual quote " You are the one hat has criticised how the township is run, I feel it is my right to defend our community" your a typical politician Mr. Stevenson, evasive, lot of promises and little to back it up. looking so forward to the debate between the 2 candidates this fall.

A smart criminal always leaves a fatal mistake. It will only take a matter of time.
