It was July, and I know it was intimidation in his own words; beleive it or not, underneath all of my rhetoric, I know what I'm talking about. But if it was football players that intimidated him, why did he immediately go after bicycles, gioing so far as to implement 24 hr "emergency" enforcement. It makes even less sense now, unless he's trying to deny implementing said rules. Furthermore, if your still in denial, I don't know what to tell you. Honestly, I don't need to spend all my time and energy in a frivolous attempt at proving corruption against the city. It's obvious to anyone willing to open their eyes. That's for you guys whose hearts are still here. I am on this and other forums to warn others about the false reporting in media about this place, and offer some of the truth about what it really is to live here. Yes, I still live here, and know what goes on daily. Bravo on being bruno's freind, must not be easy from what I've seen.
