Wow, even more questions arise from Bob Hudson's post.... You didn't talk with any other candidates? Not too thorough of an endorsement process was it?
So all one has to do is "seek out" the Union and then agree with you on "public safety" issues and they're in!
As a person who lives in the community has supported the fire department and its Union, I am disappointed in your decision and even more so in the way you made it.
You know, I was honest and upfront how we decided. Really it makes no difference to me personally what your issue is on our selection process. Just as I won't criticize you on how you determine who you will or won't vote for because we have that right as you do. We selected and if people want to support our candidate or not that is their choice. Also please do not mistake that this is a Union endorsement not a Fire Department endorsement.
So you are the opposition. Then nothing I say or do will make any difference with you.
The small business group headed by Gary Shipman supports her...Public Safety my butt.
They are 100% against any business license or registration which you guys need.
How do you know who has a business? Run it out of a home, who cares...? Right?
Do they cook food, in mass out of a house in a subdivision? Did they add ovens, etc. Do they store chemicals on site?
What about occupancy? How many can cram into a vacation or long term rental. Does this not effect insurance claims? And better yet the SAFETY of your troops?
If I went to a house fire, I might like to know if someone rewired a electric system or for example,may be storing chlorine on site, or added natural gas lines to supply cooking equipment.
She supports "first responders", because she has to, in order to get your votes.
Wasn't Danny Glidewel an actual first responder? Why not him? He's been on the front lines, unlike your candidate that has seemed to be the Subject of (law enforcement)...
Emails???
