Democracy and Freedom

The following is a direct quote from a school superintendent in Illinois about parental response to a new ruling he has announced banning all Halloween costumes, candy, parties, etc. within his school district. This isn't out of context - it fully expresses what he had to say in further detail. I have to wonder who hires the district's sup and who pays him????

 "We knew what their response would be," he said. "We know they would feel strongly [about banning Halloween in the school district]. So, the reason we didn't go forward with the community hearings is because we knew they would be upset." 

 YGBSM!!!!!!!

Obviously he has read the book on officials in power - whether appointed or elected- the will of the people has no bearing, the lawmaker does as he pleases. Great concept, eh?
