Anywho, for legislatures/representatives, dont we have to wait till elections again? I think terry was talking about city council members, per my article.
Well, I posed that as a universal question whenever a political doob shows he wants to violate our
civil right --city council or whatever. I was thinking in terms of making their sphincters shrink if the question is asked right after they do that.
I'd love to ask this question sometimes: "Mr. <politician>, do you feel it should be public policy to trample on peoples' Civil Rights?"
Then you get the babble-de-gook from them.
Then you ask pointedly, "Mr. <politiican> when are you up for re-election, sir?"
Hopefully they have a skip of the heartbeat and the aforementioned sphincter-shrink. You know, like when somebody jumps out at you and hollers "Boo!"
That's what I meant when I said, "will give them pause."
However, I'm always a trifle uncomfortable, being haole, commenting on Hawaiian local politics, so I toned it down.
It doesn't hurt to remind them that it is a
Civil Right and they can't make us "sit in the back of the bus."
I believe at one time they used to call that "prejudice." "Pre-judgement," get it?
