Get a rope!
I ain't never been in a lynch mob before!! I went to the town hall meeting about the proposed new Super Walmart they want to build in my front yard last night. They invited us in to talk about how the Walmart would look and what it was going to do to traffic. I and everyone else didn't think that was why we were there. Who gives a damn what color carpet they're going to have? It started out civilized but when the guy from the department of transportation told this guy his question was irrelevant the shit hit the fan! People were shouting and talking over eachother. I couldn't here any of the answers and it just got ugly. In the end they wouldn't tell us for sure whether or not it was too late to stop this monster but he also told us we couldn't discriminate retailers out of our neighborhood. I sat thru an hour and a half shouting match and finally couldn't take it anymore. I hate to think that my quiet beautiful neighborhood is going to turn in to my old crappy neighborhood. I don't know what the next step is but I do know my council woman is getting a strongly worded email today.
