Apparently we’re expected pay for our own protection while simultaneously subsidizing the precious roads for the precious drivers of this city who don’t give a shit about anybody not in a car- just like our city council

I know of two young people who have already voted with their feet & got out of here. Can't say I blame them. My #ZeroVisionHFX tag started out as a cry of frustration but seems to be becoming a prophecy!

The bad news is that this may increase traffic (and violations) on the Vernon Street Local Street Bikeway 😮‍💨

I think mainstream media has a lot to do with it too. Always praising and repeating words, without any fact check.

Always attacking and micro analyzing action

What a weird coincidence that a bunch of people with power sit atop a system that rewards them with power if they claim they continually claim they will do something without ever actually accomplishing it.
