The "Dread Cap-i-tan's Corner"...

The Tazer likes the Dread Capt's commentary, as it is always well thought out and gets to the point. We received this response this morning regarding the recent comments about The Tazer being "out of line", and here it is unedited:

The arrogance and petulance of "anonymous" is astounding!

Last I checked, to be "belligerent" -- which you misspelled, by the way -- is to be aggressively hostile. I much prefer to think of myself as very passionate about the direction of Richmond, and I think that the Tazer would characterize itself as similarly passionate.

If you find that I am "bashing the mayor and/or any attempts at maintaining control over meetings," I must ask why you think there needs to be so strict a control over meetings, or even over what is said here on the Tazer.

By "What has this blog accomplished besides decent (sic) within our community?" I believe you mean "dissent," but then what is dissent? It means to disagree, or differ by way of opinion.

Are you saying we must march in lockstep with the mayor or city council?

Do you fear discussion?
Do you fear opinions that are not yours?
Do you fear criticism?
Do you fear the truth?
