Although a minor point in a post regarding his quest to be a member of the school board, I can't let one bit of calumny toward his own neighborhood slide by. Michael Atherton said:

The more distant that dispute gets, he seems to see higher levels of malevolence that caused the loss. Now he says that we "ignore injustice and prejucice." Just for the record, the acceptance of "injustice and prejudice" is not the way this neighborhood works, Michael's opinion to the contrary not withstanding.
