Liberty Seeker:Thanks for letting me know I was missed. I agree with regulation and profit from gaming too. Nobody forces anybody to gamble. Same with naked bars. You do not ever have to go. There is a group led by two councilmembers, and an ad hoc committee that want to cherry pick ticketed events opting to ban rock concerts. Their excuse is noise. After a week of the Fl/Ga game and now the fair, the noise level has been unending along the river. Nobody has complained, I don't believe that for a second, but I do believe complaints have been ignored. The "Chickenman"-Redman-District 4, and the attorney Lori Boyer, District 5 seem to always be on the religious right side of restricting the public as they see fit. "Chickenman" has pushed a trial permit through the City Council for 300 lucky hen owners to have hens on their property within the city limits. I am as allergic to chickens as people are allergic to peanuts. There is a reason folks are asked if they live on a farm, been to a farm or ranch etc. when being admitted to hospitals. The disease, vermin that are drawn to chickens, and sheer smell of poultry doesn't belong in urban areas where people are jammed close together. It's particularly hazardous for children, and seniors with compromised immune systems. "Chickenman" grew up on a farm, so he thinks everybody needs that exposure. The main objection I have is with our leadership bending to the magical logic of religious zealots. Sodomy is a biblical no-no, but you can bet there's not a person alive that hasn't tried it. Some of us scream "Wrong lane", while others love it. Unless you're a criminal, nobody's the wiser. The Supreme Court is deciding a case right now, among others, about where to draw the line between religion and government. Most Southern councils begin meetings with Christian prayer. This, I hope will be outlawed. This time of year is abhorrently commercial. You can bet the last thing on Jesus's mind was a present. I sure don't shop for anything until after the holidays, and I only buy what I need. I prefer good deeds over gifts all year. My wish for the future is that churches stay out of my pocket, and out of my way. The biggest sinners I know are religious. If you trace the screamers about the naked club outrage you'll find churches are the only ones against it. I guess they really aren't doing their job keeping their members on the straight and narrow. What person alive doesn't understand that saying "No" to just about anything means everybody wants to try it, or is already doing it?
