Washington, Oregon, Rhode Island, Texas, Santa Fe New Mexico, Bisbee Arizona, Connecticut, New York, Iowa, Alaska, Hawaii, California, Wisconsin, District of Columbia, Maryland, Colorado, and Massachusetts recognize the problems with litter, landfills, and sewer problems.<br /> <br />Sweetie Marbury<br />Mayor Pro Tem<br />City of Durango<br /><br />-----------------------------------------------------<br /><br />And I wrote:<br /><br />Insult is -- when the city council passed the ban 4-1 in August super-imposing their will on its 17000+ residents.<br /><br />Insult is --when the voters voted 56% to 44% on repealing the ban in Nov, and the city council still couldn't see it. <br /><br />Insult is -- when the city council forgot that democracy is: of the people, for the people, by the people; that the votes belong to the people.<br /><br />Insult is -- when some 70 to 80 cities and counties all did that; super-imposing the will of a handful to a dozen lawmakers on its people.

Their voices was not broadcasted. <br />Insult is -- when aggressors claimed to be victims. <br /><br />Shall I go on more?RepealBagFeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03115677904795950837noreply@blogger.com
