Viso was given two years of probation in 2019 after being charged in 2014 with possessing a sawed-off shotgun near a school, possessing a gun while committing a crime and multiple drug offenses.
“They raided my house and found a gun in my house,” he explained. “I live near a school.”
There was also the time in 2013 when he was charged with possession of heroin and served seven days in jail.
But those crimes aren’t as gross as the one he was charged with in 2009: smearing fecal matter on the doors of a children’s day care center in East Rutherford.
Viso had a dispute with the day care center, which was next to his business, and he told the Globe that day care employees “harassed my men every day. They had cars ticketed every time my men parked on a side street.”
At some point, he said, he decided to get even by smearing poop on the handles and locks of the child care facility.
I, like many people who work in IT, suffer from Imposter Syndrome. I’m constantly questioning myself and wondering if I’m really qualified to be doing the work that I’m doing. Then I go and read about politicians at the “young” age of 39, smearing shit on daycare handles and blaming Obama, and I can’t help but feel like my Imposter Syndrome is completely unwarranted. I haven’t purposely smeared shit on something since I was in highschool. How the fuck am I not a senator already?
1.) Because a weekend spent smearing shit on door handles to revenge yourself on toddlers probably doesn’t appeal to you as much as doing actual work does, so you can’t be a politician for the same reason I’m legally too smart to be accepted into police academy.
2.) The only thing about imposter syndrome that ever stuck hard with me was, “If you can fake a thing all the way to completion — you weren’t faking it.”
Politicians are politicians because they don’t actually need to do something as mundane as work for a living. Be it from inheriting wealth (most often the case), being lucky enough to own a highly successful company, vast wealth from stardom or sports, being at the right place and time to get a significant chunk of a startups cash out, or in a few cases from sketchier sources, all of them have reached the point where they can spend tens of thousands of dollars campaigning for office if not significantly more, and still have enough money to pay their bills and buy all their necessities. They are essentially the nobility of the US, and just like the old world nobility, most of them are the worst of what humanity has to offer, blindly pursuing ever more wealth and power with little or no regard for the rest of humanity or the collateral damage they leave in their wake.
I dunno man. Obviously being wealthy would help, but this dude had to sell drugs to afford his health insurance. He’s no senator, but he’s still holding an elected office. I feel like there’s a sweet spot of being just corrupt and not quite smart enough where you can be a successful politician.

Well, maybe your men shouldn’t be parking illegally then? I swear, the fact that we elected a black man just completely broke their feeble little brains.
holy shit this guy lmao.
The sad part is he’s not even the worst member of the GOP. He’s honestly pretty average for them.
Compared to those currently running, he sounds like Speaker material.

That’s solid advice. I’m gonna have to keep that in mind.
You’re not wealthy enough.

I dunno I think it’s “economic anxiety” that gets grown men to smear turds on the wall.
