After two years a neighbor won a lawsuit against Northhampton’s Zoning manager’s silly but expensive ORDER to pay $550.00 and apply for a zoning variance when the Licensed Architect showed Full Compliance with all zoning issues. The new Township Solicitor settled the case by writing one essential sentence to end the politically motivated case against my neighbor.

The Courier Times printed a guest opinion I wrote a month ago about the tricks being used by the Northampton Republican Committee. It’s a sort of whistleblower article. Check it out in the newspaper.

I sued and won three cases, two in Federal Court against Northampton Township for violations of the First Amendment.  It’s the third Wednesday and there’s a Water-Board meeting tonight. At the last meeting, when it was too late for citizens to address the board because the Tyrant-in-Charge forbid it, he tried, unseccessfully, to “defend myself” as he said. He launched into a really twisted short set of prepared lies about his failure to follow the most basic of Human Rights, the Right of People to seek redress of their grievences. His fibs about his order to film within a small box in the back of the room were followed by another Water-Boarder who tried unsuccessfully to defend the violations of the basic human freedom to speak against government actions. He said the First Amendment is not absolute. Yes it is. The Supreme Court has constantly suppported the Right to Free Speech and expanded it to include Freedom of Expression. The Water-Boarder who has a carry pup used the schoolboy example of yelling fire in a crowded theatre which has been held to be inciting a stampede, not an expression of the Right to Speak Out aginst our local tyrants. Stupid, Bully Types with Power, hate the First amendment as well as the rest of the Constitution because if they try to follow it they won’t be able to push-around people like the videographer. The Chairman actually put little pieces of blue tape on the floor and ordered the video guy to stand inside the tapes. Why do I care about this? Why don’t you? Let us remember that “if we suffer tamely a lawless attack upon our liberty, we encourage it, and involve others in our doom. It is a very serious consideration, which should deeply impress our minds, that millions yet unborn may be the miserable sharers of the event.”  SA

It happened on Saint Patricks Day. The police report reads like a juvenile went out of control. It was an adult. A man appointed to the Water and Sewer board, a “made man” appointed by those who lost the township for the Republicans.  The official, I refer to Republicans like him as ”bad Republicans”, meaning those who helped design and carry out political campaigns that lost the township for the Republicans went a bit nuts. On Sunny St. Patricks day the police were called after the official threatened twice “to shoot” a person who had left the officials property after the official had angerly told the person to “get the [blank] off my property”. The official clutched his handbag dog, a fashion accessory, while mouthing some of the most vile language this writer ever heard. Great set of morals, right? Then, as the person was walking to their car, the official drove his car at him and reached under his seat as though for a gun. After the threat to shoot him, the person walked away briskly to avoid being shot and the official burned rubber in reverse and tried to hit him again. Why is this person or any such person in any official position? Should he be constantly supervised because of how he acts and what he says? Why don’t the other township officials speak out against tactics like these?

The official had previously been observed by the writer confronting a township supervisor in an angry manner

The official was appointed by the Republican Committee. By fellow travellers of the people against whom Janet and I are running.

Stay Tuned, as they say. This guy has acted like this before and it’s only a question of time until he does it again.   

So said Thomas Jefferson.  We  hear Water Board officials loudly support Free Speech when in their hearts they desire to continue to oppress, without control our free speech. The Water Board, while keeping secrets from the people is a good example of bad behavior. The Video camera caught them in another cover-up. They were forced by the Sunshine act to turn over copies of the lawsuits against many citizens in the West End.
