Public comment period

NVBighorn · Jul 25, 2009

Just about every meeting of a government entity has a public comment period where anyone from the public can ... well... comment ... on anything whether it is on the agenda or not. It's all part of freedom of speech and fair and open government. This video makes a very good case for eliminating public comment periods.

Only in California... I hope.

The homeless people come in and comment on alien abductions, police brutality and and other thing that crosses their mentally ill drug laced minds at the moment. On the other side, you get to see the mayor try to hussle them off the microphone while still trying to appear as if he is listening to their comments.

Kinda reminds me of the woman on the Davis, Calif city council who recently made the following remark during a hearing to expand the urban growth boundary in the Davis area..."What do we need dairy farms for anyway. I can get all the milk I need at the grocery store".
