I have nothing against Gahanna, nor anything against the many people I know in that area. I have friends who both own business’ and homes in that area, and they are fine upstanding men and women. What I do have is a strong aversion for lies and corruption, wherever it may be found, and I just happen to have first hand knowledge of it in this case. Nothing that was in the information I presented was either distorted nor allegations, merely verifiable truth, and no I haven’t had any trouble with the police (though nice try to discredit me “OhioVanguard”), but I know a ton of people who have. Nothing big, just a ludicrous amount of menial citations, the whole purpose of which being solely to generate revenue. I’ll give you a couple of examples and then the people can judge for themselves, you know those black frames a car dealership puts around the license plate with their names on them? License plate frames. Well, they have written it into their ordinances that this is “Obstruction of plate” and they write tickets for around $75 for them all day long. One of the contractors we use is an older man with a dump truck. They pulled him over and wrote him a plethora of tickets. One of which was for not having an “air brake endorsement” on his DL. Oh…did I mention his truck doesn’t have air brakes? In “court” they dropped all of the citations (7 I believe) because they were unenforceable/inapplicable but still made him pay court cost (around $100), but how many others just mail in the money for their tickets? I could give a dozen or so other examples, but for the conservation of space…these should suffice. The municipality generates more revenue through these venues than any other single source. Again…check their financials, they’re public. Telling the truth can surely not be construed as an “attack”… except to someone who is trying to protect a lie. So is it “odd behavior” to stand up for the truth? Even if done fervently? Instead of making derogatory statements in an attempt to discredit another, why don’t you focus on the facts of the matter and if you believe the information I have presented is erroneous then do a point for point rebuttal. I study contractual legalities almost everyday as it's an essential part of my business (Real Estate developer) which by the way is how I came to know the true origins of the name, through a couple of COUNTY officials and other local developers. I can tell you with no uncertainty that an ordinance is NOT a Law! else they would call it such. It's "color of law" which is defined as "n. the appearance of an act being performed based upon legal right or enforcement of statute, when in reality no such right exists." from law.com 
 Or in laymens terms; looks like a law, smells like a law, taste like a law...but getting down to the merits of the thing...yeah it's not really a law. 
 Also, with the same certainty, I can tell you GAHANNA & Gahanna do not reference the same thing! Though I doubt they want you thinking about that one.
