The first of two public hearings on the Walmart proposal was held Wednesday night in Rockland. LoHud.com readers debate the value of adding such a store to the struggling county:
It’s a nice, quiet neighborhood with many good local businesses. Why ruin it with a Walmart?”
— Ron Wasserman
We are talking about a 150,000-square-foot Walmart. Seriously, maybe you are being a little dramatic.”
— Steven Moetzinger
Why not put Walmart in? It creates jobs and we wouldn’t have to run down to Suffern or up to Harriman.”

Douglas Kennedy, son of Robert F. Kennedy ,is to appear in Mount Kisco Village Court tonight for a hearing on child endangerment and misdemeanor physical harassment charges stemming from allegations he kicked and shoved two nurses. LoHud.com readers share their opinions on the case:
Frankly, the Kennedy name is symbolic of many crimes committed — some of whom got away with it through monetary compensation and others who are paying for their crimes. For God sake, act like a human being for once. I find it strange that the Kennedys always seem to be connected to attorneys to fix their problems of which there are too many.”
— Anne Latella
So why did the hospital tape over the video of the incident?”
— Patricia Nicolais
Mr. Kennedy should apologize to the nurses and his wife for his boorish behavior. Man up. Admit you were wrong and stop your aggressive behavior.”
