There are currently five Dems and Amararosa's wife just made the 7th Republican. A Dem gets the spot and it's 6-6.


I love how Gravy, Helmet, Chauna, etc want to "vote out" these Republicans. Has anyone told any of them that you must LIVE in the district to vote them out?

Most of it is. The NBR folks feel they're entitled to tell another district who can represent them. They want to forcefully install a Democrat to a Republican district in the name of "justice". They're yelling racism because it's the only thing they know how to do. It doesn't even make sense.

Can we start a “No Representation Without Taxation” movement?

It doesn't matter. They don't care about rules. Did you hear Fat Panther tell Scott that they shouldn't have voted Denise in because they had more people there against than for the appointment

That fat barrel of mud actually thinks the members of the audience have a say on stuff like this. Not a single one of them ever passed a basic civics class

That was my favorite speech last night. They were yelling that while trying to disenfranchise an entire district

Almost everyone got up to talk about racism in BR and they have no idea that they are the problem. They see things by skin color only and not by merit.

This.

It's seriously astounding considering their attack on Tara on top of it.

So what happened? Can't read 54 pages.

Did Amoroso's wife get his seat? Or does JBE get to appoint it?

Is Tara going to be our next mayor? I read her highlights, I like her kind of.

In a surprised twist, the council appointed Gravy...tbh I am shocked it's only at 54 pages after that shocker.

Its funny because Chambers thinks he's the voice of the people and has any respect, but if you look closely at his page you'll see some interesting things.

He posted this last night to his 5,000 friends and 27,000 followers, in an attempt to create some activity and get some more people down to the council chambers:



If you look closely you see not even 40 people out of 32,000 acknowledged it on facebook.

He's definitely a has been. Even black people are tired of hearing him talk about how bad black people have it rather then doing something about it. Whats worse, last night Gary proved to them that he'll turn his back on black people too while claiming that's who he's trying to help.

This guy's washed up

As much as those racebaiters helped SG's cause, Tara Wicker also helped the BR cause.


Tara is positioning herself as quite reasonable; a good thing. However look at the black democratic backlash she has received. I'd love it if all the council members were as reasonable as she, but that's not what these people want.

The backlash is from a very vocal minority of the black community. She’s articulate unlike the others. She can explain her position to her voters. They can’t.
