Thanks for waiting, You wrote: "Good men act before the government crosses the line by working to correct through petitions and voting. Your point about 'tribunal' is enlightening. I think our founding fathers meant that we should reflect on our actions as a group rather than as an individual acting from emotion.

I tend to agree that it would be best if we formed a large group before storming down to city hall to set the deviants on course.

The question is: How large should the group be?

I keep reading posts here about how badly the government is treating my fellow citizens. The subject of owning firearms comes up quite frequently. People are always posting about what they would do if the government infringed on their rights. Would you agree that the government was just a tad bit aggressive in how they handled the sewer problem?

The tribunal I was alluding to in my post is the Supreme Court of the United States. However, they seem to be part of the problem rather than the solution.

We have another chance to get this boat floating trim and neat in the coming election. Do you have any plans on how you can personally make a difference?

I would like to hear them.

These guys have never been to a country where the government really treats their citizens badly. As my wife says, everyone should live in one for a few years and they will come blessing hour great our country is.

Too easy to punch a few keys under a screen name.

Sometimes the government gets too aggressive and they may have in this case. I just don't have enough information. This guy has had a long term problem with the city that goes back years.

I missed that. I was reading that the 'tribunal' would be the group of citizens.

My goal for each year is to get at least one front page headline retracted by our local newspaper.
