“The chief, John Freitas, is 55, with a gray beard touched by tobacco rust. He did prison time decades ago, worked for years as a factory supervisor, then became homeless for all the familiar, complicated reasons.”

The flowery prose regarding Freitas goes on for several paragraphs.
Then, later in the article, Mr. Barry throws out this tidbit, almost as an afterthought.

“The camp became 10 people, then 15, then 25. No children allowed.”

Rather noble of these people, right? Protecting children and all that entails.
But alas, Mr. Barry left out some important information about Freitas that is likely the real reason why this “Obamaville” doesn’t allow children.
Freitas has four convictions for child sex offenses dating back to 1978.
From Clay Waters over at NewBusters;

According to the Web site for the Massachusetts Sex Offender Registry Board, Mr. Freitas was convicted of rape and abuse of a child, in 1978, and of indecent assault on a child in 1978, 1986 and 1987.

The kicker is Mr. Barry knew about this little fact when he wrote the original Slimes article.

“Barry revealed he knew about Freitas’s sex offense at the time he wrote the article. So why wasn’t it included in the reference to Freitas doing “prison time decades ago”? Probably because the details would mar the faintly nostalgic, “Hooverville” mood Barry was trying to put across.”

Sadly, (or maybe not sadly), we all know the NY Times ceased to be a “newspaper” long ago, simply morphing into a propaganda arm for their uber-left masters at the DNC and others of their ilk.
What a waste of trees, and ink..!!

I think ‘Obama-ville’ is an appropriate name.

You see, our dear leader has a plan. The economic takeover of America, wealth redistribution, socialized medicine, well, they are all signs of the great things too come. With the evil, profit hungry private sector soon to be stopped, we will all soon be living in such bliss.
