We continue to blame the politicians for our problems when they're only doing what comes natural. Looking out after their own interests. The real problem here is the people of Dodge City are acting like politicians. Looking out after their own interests.

I complained about how the vote on the SEC was ignored twice, and instead of addressing the issue of our vote being ignored, those who didn't want the SEC saw no problem. Some even saw ignoring our vote as a good thing.

Now that some are on the receiving side they are crying foul play.

Much like the smoking ban instead of being addressed as an issue of rights infringement or too much government control, those who don't like smoking have no problem giving away the rights of others if it serves their wants.

Politicians have always looked for ways, right or wrong, to accomplish their own agendas and our only protection was by a united stand of the people. We are divided by our own selfishness and so we pay the price.
