Commission members are not hearing the objections. We've had a televised call-in session with the Mayor, posted a link for questions and concerns on the Internet, posted information in Beach Advisor, ran articles in the Beacon, etc. And we have not heard from anyone. Tonight, only two people attended. Ms. Butler explained that it's because people are afraid to come forward.
People believe that they have no voice in government.
They are cynical. I just want you to know that educators are equally as vulnerable as police. We do not have a clear consensus of which way to go. The Commission is sensitive. We understand that there is a vulnerability on the parts of the citizens.
