Report Inappropriate Comments

Dear Tmal21966,

The article stands on it's own and you're right. It was a positive event that I applauded and one that should be repeated.

However, it is the type of event that Avedisian has never done in the past and don't you think it is a little odd that after I suggested it (dozens of times in many political platform statements) he decided to take credit for it. He was quoted in the article. I was just responding. If the Republican candidate can make a statement, shouldn't the Democrat be able to. I think so. Congress agrees with me and for decades they have supported "equal time" for all candidates.

You say you are a long term Democrat. It was the Democrats that pushed for equality on this and every issue.

Tmal21966, doesn't the reader have the freedom of choice (another Democratic principle) to decide to read my comment or not?

They know who wrote it. They know I am the endorsed Democrat for Mayor. Can't they choose for themselves?

Like you did when you wrote your comment?

Sounds like a freedom that you want for you and Avedisian but not me. You don't sound like a Democrat, but no one knows who you are because of the pen name. Here's an idea. Call me at 338-9900. I would like to discuss/debate this issue respectfully. I look forward to your call. When you do, could you please use your real name? Thank you Tmal21966.

Sincerely,

Richard Corrente

Endorsed Democrat for Mayor
