The incumbent Roxbury city councilor spent Tuesday roaming his district with four security guards, one packing heat, opponent Carlos Henriquez charges:

I'm concerned that the councilor feels the need for security to travel the district which he represents on election day. Every night teens and mothers in my neighborhood travel alone. Some with their children to bus stops with no sense of security. I wonder how they feel. ... We are working to teach young men in the community that they don't need to have guns or travel with a gang for safety. But if the sitting City Councilor feels he needs someone with a gun with him to travel Roxbury, Dorchester and the South End, then what is he saying about the community he represents.

The framing of United States soldiers; The racial attacks towards a Latina Candidate; The refusal to shovel snow off a Boston City sidewalk; The stealing of Massachusetts tax paying cold hard cash of $1000, caught on FBI video camera along with Diane Wilkerson stealing $25.000.00 accepting bribes.

In an hour-long debate this morning on Touch FM, District 7 City Councilor Chuck Turner and challenger Carlos Henriquez, differed on how a city councilor could make life better in the Roxbury, the Fenway and the South End.

It's 8 a.m. on Touch 106.1 FM, Henriquez tweets. If you can't pick up the station, they simulcast on the Web.

That's the goal of Think Politics, which is launching this month. City Council candidates Tito Jackson (at large) and Carlos Henriquez (Roxbury) are among the founders. The Facebook invitation for its first meeting (which was yesterday) has more info.

Blue Hill Avenue near Packy Connors has become "an open air market of crime, filled with drugs, alcohol and prostitution," and that cannot be allowed to continue, according to Carlos Henriquez, running against incumbent Councilor Chuck Turner.
