"Cowardice asks the question...is it safe? Expediency asks the question...is it politic? Vanity asks the question...is it popular? But conscience asks the question...is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but one must take it because it is right." ~Dr. Martin Luther King

No Vacuum

Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "Praise The Lord And Pass The Ammunition":

"...Tieing the blame to him might be comparable to blaming the worst of the Mormac events on a Councillor at the time who opposed them."

I think ALL coucillors during that time are to blame for what is now called MorMac. They did not operate in a vacuum.

***************
That's like blaming the victim of rape, for the actions of the perpetrator.

It has been known to happen. Not in the least  uncommon.

Mormac did not operate in a vacuum.

They operated with a solid block of six consistent votes.

No matter what they did, the majority made it legal.

They even wrote their own code of conduct.

Hired and fired their own integrity commissioner.

How did you get transported to Toronto from our town?

Frankly I don't need all their crap.

Try to stay focused on local issues, of which there are many.

Thank you.

You're right. And now that the evil doers are gone, there are those that are running around here and on other boards saying that what they did was criminal. But you have just said that "No matter what they did, the majority made it legal."

There you go folks, MorMac did everything LEGALLY! Now stop bitching about it being illegal.
