DON’T MESS UP THE TRAFFIC!
The campaign continues to demonstrate.
I have been actively opposing the proposed $32 million radical makeover for the past eight months. So far there have been 260 hours of demonstrations which is the equivalent of walking nearly 800 miles carrying a sign. The LEAVE PUBLIC SQUARE ALONE signs have been seen by thousands
HUNGER STRIKE:
