Comments on: Proposition 4: Bill of Rights Violations http://www.freespokane.net/?p=174 Voice of the Free City Wed, 16 Jun 2010 23:23:06 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.2 hourly 1 By: Daisy http://www.freespokane.net/?p=174&cpage=1#comment-178 Daisy Fri, 16 Oct 2009 00:45:45 +0000 http://www.freespokane.net/?p=174#comment-178 I think it's mostly nonsense. I had a girlfriend call me after a meeting in the West Central neighborhood. Seems like the project they had going is back on the docket. Tom Linzey and his crew voted against the project but the neighborhood voted in favor by a large margin (20-4). Even though EV says it supports the neighborhoods having "self determination", the question people should be asking is why Mr Linzey would vote AGAINST the neighborhood vote. Mr Linzey might be voting for control but certainly going against a neighborhood's vote calls EV's motives into question. Even after the vote, he could have changed his. He didn't. Now Linzey might be thinking it's his own vote and not EV's position. Logically then, it would seem that Envision's "guru" is at odds with part of their mission. Seem a bit hypocritical. It's a sin someone will pay for according to her. The recorded vote is reportedly being sent to the Planning Dept there in Spokane in order to exact a zone change. I think it’s mostly nonsense.

If my understanding is correct the Federal Government is not a true democracy, rather a representative republic. Is that the same for our local government? Or is Spokane's City laws set up more as a democracy? One other Q. If my understanding is correct the Federal Government is not a true democracy, rather a representative republic.

They are now quoting FDR's 2nd Bill of Rights in their email marketing. They refuse to accept themselves and the organizations they worked with on crafting Prop 4 as special interest groups. While they claim none of the bad things opponents are claiming will come true I would love at least some acknowledgement of unintended consequences.
