Keep Dana Page off the City Council
I’m not sure that this guy is a serious contender but I need to put anyone who thinks they should be able to walk or bike anywhere in this town on notice. He has some good ideas about whipping the local government into fiscal shape and making sure city contracts are fulfilled with local businesses, unfortunately he not only believes that any money spent on bicycle facilities is a waste, but has a creepy rabid antipathy toward cyclists. Here’s some choice drivel:
The city of Wilmingwood [a local nickname for the city because of the relatively large size of our film industry--Anthony] is not supposed to be a Berkely California or some other hippie paradise. People in Wilmingwood drive cars and the bikes need to look out for the cars. If you want a bike paradise move to Cuba or China, They love bicycles there!
Dana Page, infantile bike hater for City Council. I don’t have time to point out all the flawed reasoning in the passage above–it doesn’t rise above name calling to the level of an argument. Please don’t give this man your vote, we don’t want him sitting on the council for four years. The planning department in this city is doing good work to make this city more bicycle and pedestrian friendly, don’t put this obstacle into office.
