I've been here for over 30 years. I've minded my own business and lived a quiet life under the radar. Since this election for more government, I've been blasted by people who, I believe, have not played anywhere in the realm of truth.
As I've said all along. Once this election is over, I'll move on. I've had threats from many from the pro-village people just because I have spoken my mind and given my opinion and shared facts regarding this issue. Needless to say, I have anonymous slams from people who just operate this way. Yes, I've had threats as well. It's too bad that this would go on in Campton Hills.
This is my blog and all are welcome. The only people that I've deleted are those whose comments have been anonymous. That's hardly a rejection of free speech.
As I've said the entire time, fight with passion, but when it's over, it's over. Time to move on. I'll resurface when there's something passionate to fight about. But I've fought with my keyboard. Angry people within Campton have fought back with lies, slams and total anonymity.
I'm done with this issue. Biblically, it says to pray for those who govern. I fought to rid this place of the 4th layer of government. 1) Federal, 2) State, 3) County and now 4) New Campton Hills layer of rulers. I lost. In the Old Testament David lost his son. When the son was dying he fasted and prayed. Once his son died he picked up an moved on. When asked why, David said that he fasted to accomplish something, but once his son died there was nothing more that he could do. Therefore it was time to move on. I'm moving on as well. I'll actually pray that those who have sought to govern actually learn to serve others and not themselves. Everyone in Campton should pray for the same.
There are sore losers and sore winners. I'm neither. I came. I typed and we lost. I don't believe that the other side acted appropriately and if more people knew the truth, weren't intimidated or lied to, we would have won. There I said it.
But like David, it's time to move on. Our economy stinks nationally an it's bad within Campton. I'm there to move forward and help the people who need that help. Congrats pro people on your victory. As always, your comments are always welcome, but not anonymously. That's not a slam, nor is it a prevention of free speech as some would like to claim. All with real names have commented and been allowed to whether they were pro-dissolve or pro big government. I honor those who have the maturity to participate appropriately the ability to do so.
Campton has devalued an entire community. Today our people were hurt. Tomorrow the healing begins.
Larry you had some great points in there
