COUNCIL: This tastes foul

Reviewing the latest piece of forced ordinance coming before the City Council recalls the E.E. Cummings line from the poem, I Sing Of Olaf Glad And Big: “There is some s—t I will not eat.”

For many years I have used that quote when responding to something, someone asks me to do that is stupid. Where does this paradigm end?

Holding one’s peace when dealing with homosexuals, common sodomites and Monty Python types with hairy legs and beards, dressed in skirts and makeup is difficult at best. But does this new ordinance force the citizens to tolerate beastiality, pederasts who keep catamites and other selected perversions? Are the taxpayers going to be required to pay for “colorful” pervert parades and celebrations? The Nazi-like tactics that force the citizenry to comply with laws they disagree with leads to consequences.

Be advised, voting this ordinance into law will end your political aspirations and shame the community in which you serve.
