Not Free

I was wondering what was the motive behind bringing up this dead horse issue again? Why would the Chief Administrative Officer George Little remove the 10 foot marker from the park. on his own, out of the blue? Then for Councilman Myron Lowery to follow up  with a suggestion to change the name of the park is fishy I'm not surprised that  Councilwoman  Janis Fullilove  would react the way she did.  This type foolishness ignites her base.  But not Councilman Lowery's supporters. He is usually expected to be the voice of reason. I don't remember him being particularly vocal on this issue before now. He wasn't even at the rally when Al Sharpton came to Memphis. Now that he has disturbed the bee hive again. He is conveniently out of town at a Democratic Convention.

I think this is just a smokescreen. We don't have term limits in Memphis  So I'm getting used to council members taking one for the team.  The one really talking about what we should be focused on is Council member Harold Collins. He said city officials are focusing too much time on the park instead of solving the city's chronic budget problems, crime rates and inner city deterioration.
"We've got bigger things to worry about in this city than a dead man's park," said Collins.

What about the proposal to raise the city sales tax?  That should be at the top of the agenda.  Watch how  the council comes together and supports this tax hike.  Where was the emotion for the poor city residents being double taxed? "If you don't pay for any thing,  you'll get nothing. If you want to see how serious they are. Explain to the people that it's not free.
