You have the right to disagree with your mayor. You have no right to call him names or say the other horrible things that you said to him. You, the public, seemed to want to physically attack him. The mayor took it all gracefully in stride. Later in the meeting, one man addressed the police officer who had spoken earlier and became a bit agitated. Almost everyone, led by the mayor, gently reminded the man to relax, and he did. And after all the craziness was over, the mayor led the rest of the meeting beautifully for hours, covering the rest of the agenda. I have only spoken to the mayor on several occasions, but I have heard him speak a lot. The mayor loves this town, has a business here -- and is very involved in Dunsmuir's community organizations. He would never want to harm the town in any way. His only "motive" is to get quality, organic medicine that has been watered with the best water on Earth. He is willing to offer his land, pay for the greenhouse, fencing and security, etc., until the Green-Collar Compassionate Collective can repay him. He also mentioned that he would consider donating any profit to other garden organizations of Dunsmuir. This could be ground-breaking medically. Most people at the meeting seemed to think medical patients should have access to use this drug that God gave us. Let us make it as pure as it can be and force others to do the same. It would show that Dunsmuir cares about its medical community more than anyone else. Colette Spencer, Macdoel - --- MAP posted-by: Richard Lake
