These fools need to go. But how does anyone run for office when we are constantly running around trying to mitigate the knee-jerk dictates and unmitigated disaster the current City Council has forced upon us?
COVID was not a problem until the City Council made it a problem. Police relations were not a problem (and I feel they still aren't a problem) until the City Council opined about a death that happened 1,207 miles away. Parks closed despite evidence that fresh air and exercise are the best defense. Flat refusal to remove barriers when the parks were reopened. Bars closed driving our college students to binge-drink at home. Small businesses shuttered. Children who haven't seen their friends in over 4 months.
San Marcos is beautiful. And it is amazingly convenient. But the City Council has managed to turn it into a horrible place to raise a family. I'm starting to regret moving here. Maybe I'll take my family, time, and talents to elsewhere. Wyoming, the Dakotas, Idaho, Utah... Places where they'll leave me alone to raise my family.
Dear Mr. Holeman:
Moral courage = Run for office.
Secondly, why not check your spam for email.
Maybe people have been trying to contact you since over 30 days ago.
Better still, why not ask SMCorridornews for my email address ? They have my permission to do so.
Ya, but if I may steal a phrase from the American Red Cross First Aid training. You need to make sure the scene is safe.
And right now the dictates coming down pose multiple unpredictable threats. I would be gotta make sure the family is taken care of first.
