As usual, the Lazy C deliberately focuses in on one angry opponent to a much wanted boondoggle, while ignoring nearly two hours of reasoned, calmly spoken testimony from citizens on both sides of the issue. C-Tran board meeting takes uncomfortable turn
I don’t know Mr. Thomas, but can relate to his anger at years of being ignored by elected officials that squander our tax dollars, although I would have chosen a different manner to express it. Still, he reflects his own anger as six members of the C-Tran Board of Fools once again ignored all public testimony and chose to keep pushing forward on a project citizens have clearly indicated they do not want.
Leave it to the Lazy C, who apparently support this latest boondoggle as they did the comatose CRC light rail project to paint opponents as angry and out of control, completely skipping over rational speakers like these below.
Personally, I would have rather Mr. Thomas not have chosen that manner in which to speak out, but he did as is his choice.
At the same time, I can’t help but notice how the Lazy C has overlooked similar angry expressions for over a year now towards the County Commissioners from Liberal/Progressives whipped into a frenzy by the paper over the Don Benton hire. In fact, they have somewhat glorified some angry expressions towards them in their pages.
I never claimed the Lazy C had an ounce of objectivity or integrity.
