Residents donated pre-bagged groceries to help fight hunger for the Newtown Lions Second Annual Stuff-A-Truck Food Drive held on Saturday, April 6 at Stop & Shop in Sand Hill Plaza.
By your own definition, wouldn't a boycott fall under the "protest" form of conflict resolution? Boycotts are peaceful protests that embody the freedom of expression codified in the First Amendment. Was Gandhi a bully when he instituted boycotts of British cloth and salt? The Republican victim mentality is getting exhausting.
I was there and silent in my position because of the mob mentality. The undertones and bullying group of the Facebook mob, even without their "leader," were sad and disappointing. I have silently voiced my support to individual members of the committee in the days following the meeting. I am just grateful that I didn't do it before the meeting, or the Facebook mob would have taken my photo and publicly shamed me for meeting out of caucus.
LOL! You are neither silent or the majority! 80-120 taxpaying residents attended every public hearing on this over the course of a year, in person, as well as hundreds of emails and letters to the boards, commissions and to the media.....with 95%+ of them in opposition. Facts matter.
