What I meant was, this seemed like a highly personal situation, as opposed to a stranger murdering a politician for ideological reasons. It sounds like Askew just flat out hated Davis and had become obsessed with him. We'll hear more about that.
So, was this MAN a socialist liberal D,rat or what? Oh, I thought you knew. We only have three Republicans on the City Council, and they're all from Staten Island.
The 48 others are all Democrats, Very Liberal Democrats, Socialists, or Communists like Barron.
Davis was one of six or seven people to vote *against* the property tax increase, and was a former cop, and couldn't stand Gifford Miller, so I'd peg him as a regular Democrat.
I'd peg him as a regular Democrat.
Thanks for the insight... I think. :)
