Sorry I went to that link! Did you read the other headlines going on in Connecticut?

OMG! Sounds like some third-world nation, the barbarity!

I thought Connecticut was supposed to be so proper and educated!
Wow, sorry I went there.

Depends on where you are in Connecticut. It's generally a very wealthy and educated state but there are pockets in urban areas that are like third world countries. I've been living here over a year now and I've never seen such a disparity. One minute you can be driving by multi-million dollar mansions, the next minute you are in a slum with the requisite check-cashing joints, pawn shops and hole in the walls peddling hooch liquor.

The area that surrounds the Pez headquarters in Orange (actually a very nice town) includes Bridgeport and New Haven which consist of some of the poorest and run-down areas in the state. I think those people were represented heavily at that Easter egg hunt.
