You are reading in. You don't play fair. You just can't admit it. Glenn does not say as Darco implied that "people were excluded from the park" (and actually people have been - you and everyone else can probably realize that people are routinely told to leave the park, for sleeping overnight and other reasons). Maybe Glenn refers to private Clark Park banquets with high priced entry fees. Maybe he refers to private gatherings hosted by Penn where the public is excluded. 'Penn Control' is something about which while Glenn has held back from giving it ultimate vilification, he warns people to be concerned. 'Secrecy' is the most difficult to prove (duh, it's a secret), but in any case you ridicule by hyperbole, misrepresent his remarks, and say things that are not true.
You now seem to be practically accusing me of being a Trump conspiracy talk supporter. You clearly haven't read much of what I have written (or you are resorting to damaging written public falsification again). I am actually a true "Balder" who believes Donald Trump can't be Pres. because he can't prove his hair was born in the U.S.A. Here is something of mine I posted to FB: "Saying Trump appeals to masochistic dupes with no sense of mathematics, to sadistic voyeurs who wish they had balls, or to racist instincts in those of lesser intelligence, is all the same... they're just the facts Jack!" Bill Mahr did better: Bill Maher says, "Hey Trump, what's the "biggest scam ever" NOW? I'd say its a guy with 3 bankruptcies telling America how to get its financial house in order." "Crackpot." That is what you say Tony, instead of answering others criticisms! Surely you are big enough to deal with others concerns and not to only resort to name calling. Be fair.
