To fully appreciate this Journal Star article, you need to read Laura Petelle’s (aka “Eyebrows McGee“) account of the incident in her own blog.
Kudos to Laura for not being intimidated by her neanderthal neighbor and standing up against the slander of a local business owner.
Bullies piss me off, and the more I thought about it, the more I realized that I had the power to stand up to him, so I really had a DUTY to stand up to him.
Thanks for the kudos. 🙂 But I really think almost anyone would have done the same. I think I was probably even more scared about it than most people would have been.
I’m glad you made this issue public. Slander like that guy was spreading really should be brought to light — it’s the only way to stop it. You did a good thing.
What is so sad is that in my opinion, there are a lot of bullies in government, only looking at the school siting issue illustrates that unfortunate situation.
