[a fool in paradise]

Seems to be just the latest example of local political bureaucrat types trying to usurp the will of local citizen voters. It’s also called being an arrogant politician who thinks voters don’t know what is good for them.

The city fought the measure even being put to a public vote. Then they ran ads with bogus safety statistics.

Now they drag their heels.

City of Houston does not give a corrupt DemocRats donkey-ass what the public thinks. They also ran some ballot measure to compete with some other measure a few years back and Bill White claimed his measure superseded the public's measure.

Yep, they tried to fool the stupid people with the “Red Light SAFETY Cameras” save lives bull-sh!t...Got about 47-48% of them last I heard...

They waited until the last few weeks of the campaign to run those idiotic radio ads...

Personally, I think we should wait till the 120 days are up...Then make a clean break with the contract...On day 121, then we should resort to some unconventional tactics...

Mayor Parker sure has been rather quiet about this issue, and something tells me she would be amiable if we cooled our jets till the contract termination clause is completed without incident...

If we see crews going around and taking the hardware down on day 121, then that would be ok with me...We should press the city to not half azz the effort to deactivate and remove the hardware either at that time...Be a shame for that equipment to be damaged in the meantime...
