Subject: news!!!!!
I find it hard to believe your paper feels I need to know more about how a Sikh’s marriage is arranged than the fact that there were forgeries on the two recall petitions being investigated by our Police Department. Whoever decides what is news at your paper needs to have a reality check.

Dear Editor
I am outraged at the City for footing the lawyer bills for the infamous four. What do we have here? We have the defamation an esteemed member of the Missouri Bar Association. He has suffered through racial slurs, nasty comments, and ridicule. The infamous four deserve their law suit and they should pay their own lawyers. Is it not illegal to stop paying a man with a legal and binding contract? How many times does the city have to suffer through another of Patti’s ploys to have her way.
Speaking of Patti and her subterfuges. She and the other three have decided that our Chief of Police must go. He is the best police chief we have ever had. We had to wait a year and a half to get him and we are not letting go of him! He is running the police department with all the expertise necessary. I’m sure Patty is piqued with him for the petition work by the police department. The police did exemplary and diligent work on going over the petitions.They went so far as to call the City of St. Louis Police to get information on how they went through the petitions. They used the same protocol that the City used. If TR and his group didn’t want the police in on it they should have been more diligent in how they ran the petition drive. How they could think the forgeries and fraud would not be found is beyond me. I went through the petitions and found more wrong than TR mentioned. His numbers were slightly off. Actually more than off. He must have decided to divide the actual number by 4.
I seem to recall hearing about a meeting the empowerment committee had about the forgeries and fraud before they handed in the petitions. TR left early so he wouldn’t have to hear about the nasty stuff.
If you want to voice your option about Patti’s plans Chief Swope you may call—Mayor York 949-3268
Mr. Williams 949-3262
Bob Kneemiller 925-1354
Mike Weller 322-7686
