Maybe because Canaan is middle of nowhere while Bridgeport and Hartford are near stuff?

They said "Pedophile Hunter." Google the definition of hunt on Google. They're literally saying they want to kill pedophiles. Couldn't be any clearer.

Pretty ironic having the "pray the rosary" sticker right next to it given the catholic church shields all their pedophiles.

He appears to be Catholic, based on the “pray the rosary” sticker.
I wonder if he would be offended if he were asked how many molesting priests he’s hunted down?

State is running surpluses and talking tax cuts, how is that in the toilet?

It's not HORRIBLE as in you gotta worry about getting shot... You just have to make sure you grab packages off your front step right away. Petty shit.

Person who owns the truck in the picture: "I'm so tired of people asking me my stance on murder, so I bought a big sticker to make sure that wherever I drive, everyone knows that I want to murder people so bad!"
/u/timmahfast: "How do you know they want to murder people, have you had a conversation with them?"

No idea where "our" is because CT sales tax is 6.35% and car registration is $40/year (120/3 years).

There's a small neighborhood by New Britain over by tabletop and veggie world is not a great area.

FL housing prices are worse than CT, and their insurance costs are way worse

Hunt and execute without trial? For sure.
Simulate the execution on your car for some reason? You betcha.
While claiming to love God and liberty. Meh, par for the conservative course.

OP’s just mad because they see the truck everywhere they go and the owner is walking around behind them dressed like Elmer Fudd.
Seriously though, we can all agree… it doesn’t matter if you’re fringe right or left, kiddie diddlers are bad.
Go ahead and park that truck outside <insert diddler haven> and see who doesn’t show up for work that day…

I supposed it depends who this person would consider a pedophile. I don't associate LGBTQ with pedophiles. Maybe this person does. We wouldn't know without having a conversation with them.

So my wife hasn't seen Newtown yet but I have and I really liked it. It feels like the sort of town I'd want to raise a family in. I'll have to check out Bethel too!!

In that case I stand by my advice to look for the best schools you can afford.

Given that the conservative crowd has spent the last several years painting the entirety of the LGBTQ crowd as pedophiles/groomers, ya I’d say that’s problematic.
Not to mention I can’t possibly see how allowing people to murder others without due process could possibly have negative consequences. Nope, never heard of the Salem witch trials.

You know, i don't know. I just know he was forced to step down, and many teens were effected. I can ask my ex his name if anyone is interested

You've mentioned Newtown a few times in your replies. I grew up nearby, and if you've seen houses in a good price range I think you should follow your instinct and check it out some more! A pretty main street (that goes hard for Halloween and Christmas lol), a pleasant walkable area in Sandy Hook, a handful of good restaurants, pleasant paved walking at Fairfield Hills, as much hiking nearby as you could want... My hometown is similar but all woods and I'm sometimes jealous of the relatively livelier center of Newtown. Then of course the convenience of these towns is just hard to beat. From Newtown you're a quick drive from the food and stores and recreation in Bethel (my favorite town 🥲--actually, move to Bethel), Danbury, Brookfield, Trumbull, Monroe... an hour and a half from NYC on 84, half hour from the train to NYC at Southeast (in NY state)... Seriously, you could also check out Bethel, though it's smaller-feeling than Milford. (I'd say Redding too, for maximum nature-convenience balance, but you specifically liked the sidewalk in Milford, and the housing market is maybe not great in Redding.)
