(98,872 posts)There was no way he was going to call on me after I spoke up twice early in the meeting. People in the back and those with hearing aids could not hear. I asked once before he got the microphone to turn it up. Once after. I was branded at that point.
Several conservatives clapped when former councilman Chuck F commented he doesn't want single payer. I wanted so bad to say why are you clapping for a convicted registered sex offender!
