On the matter of the Downtown Riots, the Greensboro City Council decided last night that THEIR curfew was not the solution to the problem just as myself and others have said all along. The entire story of the Greensboro Riot including the lies exposed by myself and others can be found by clicking the link then scrolling down the page.
Greensboro Mayoral candidate George Hartzman said of the curfew,
“I think the curfew is socioeconomically biased and racist,” Hartzman said. “It’s about keeping poor, black people out of downtown at night.”
As Roch recently pointed out, the 60 day cerfew has cost us over $81,000 and appears to be racially motivated in its enforcement.
I agree, children shouldn't be out late at night, nothing good ever comes of it but it is the responsibility of parents to take care of their children. 10:00 cerfews prevent teens from working on weekends and Summer nights. And finally, the Federal government bans cities and states from requiring citizens carry IDs simply to walk down the street so legal enforcement of the cerfew is impossible. Sooner or later the City would get sued.
Zack Matheny and Nancy Hoffman voted to continue to criminalize your children solely because of their age. and race.
