Finally something to be encouraged about in regards to local government.
Common sense that we all can live with. This vote is a victory for
everyone...... and for freedom. Everybody wins with this vote, even those
who so zealously tried to give away to the government their free will for
the illusion of safety. Hopefully the Minneapolis city council will realize
that freedom and compromise is a more fundamental democratic ideal than
reactionary social engineering that hurts everyone. I doubt it will happen,
but we can all have hope.
