Description
Harding Blvd and Sterger St has always been a confusing intersection. Now with baseball season upon us there are more children and traffic. There are children all around this intersection, from Elmwood park to the basketball courts, baseball fields and the Pal Center. A Stop sign or even a traffic light may help alleviate the confusion. Just once I would love to see a police car sitting on Harding Blvd between the corner and the Pal Center. People whip so fast around that corner and have no way to see what is in front of them until it is too late. Usually it is a parked car pulling out and you hear the brakes screech, but one day it could be a child crossing the road there!
The police have no problem ticketing anyone for parking on the grass. It would be nice to see them help with this safety issue as well.

You see, to many people (myself included), the objection to the huge illegal immigrant population is not about race, it's about money.
I also think a case could be made that the comment was actually on topic, as a lot of these road problems listed in clickfix will not be fixed for a long time, if ever, due to inadequate funding, yet just this week the Times Herald reported that the county will shell out $285,000 to fund the cost of pregnant illegal's at Montgomery Hospital, and will also be raising property taxes.

I hadn't read that, so thank you for the information. If the borough is using funds that could be earmarked for roads on illegal immigrant health care, that would be a shame.
Maybe we should start a complaint board on the Housing Authority and Zoning Board who allow the slum lords of Norristown to pack small houses and apartments with numerous illegals and collect enough money to pay the $500 fine every month with no further consequence.
