A CALL TO ARMS!!!

Listen its time the progressive people of this city and supporters of light rail start speaking up. Every time there is an article on one of our media outlets websites it seems as though it is always bombarded by simpletons complaining about a new tax.
We need to counteract, and show the readers there are people who support this. Otherwise it looks like they are winning, and if they win it sets our City/ Metro back even further.

SPEAK UP PEOPLE!

I agree. We need to speak up. All the people who think any sort of mass transit expansion is nothing more than a boondoggle need to hush. Well, we need to supercede their voices for sure.

Then register and do it - and "progressive" is a loaded and silly word - if you write anything stick to the point - rail is good.

I am registered, and I do... do it lol. This post isn't a prep rally for myself.

As for the word "Progressive", I fully understand how some people view the word in a different way, but I used it in its simplest form meaning that I am FOR PROGRESS, and in that sense the word is hardly silly.

Team work smiley, team work.

I'm guessing we're talking about TampaBay.com, which I am also registered. My name on there is the same as on here, so I'll be easily to recognize.

I've been arguing against pretty much everyone on the stories on light rail. I'll be happy to keep it up and fight back.
