Unless you all really agree with what the City Council is doing, Mr. Garrett, tell those bozos on the council that local business people will no longer donate to their campaigns. I'll bet you'll see some action then...
Gee, Ted, that'll help waaayyy down the road IF your hard working business owners are still in business and still in Berkeley. My guess is boycotters will continue to boycott until they see some change and a sufficiently groveling apology.
So, Ted, maybe you should organize up a short term, right now confrontation en mass of your business owners with the scummy, belly crawling, little twits who are responsible for their ongoing distress and possible demise.
Perhaps, in addition to no longer donating to the twits' campaigns, the business people could organize to financially support a recall.
It's small and local and wouldn't cost much to get on the ballot for November. If the citizens who DO vote these doodoos in understand that their favorite restaurants, dry cleaners, stores etc. won't be there anymore...
This can be accomplished very cheaply with signs prominently posted near the entrances to the various businesses. Petitions could be signed right on site without having to hire professionals.
That assumes of course that the business owners really are good, hard working Americans who wouldn't have approved of what the dimwits brought down on their heads.
