Jesus said it best: “You will know them by their fruits” (Matthew 7:16).
Once again, our local Walmart haters show their true colors. These angry malcontents remind me of a stubborn skin rash that refuses to go away. Going against the majority of the good people of Atascadero and their elected representatives, they now bring a lawsuit against our financially strapped city.
It appears that when liberals, socialists, and other mean-spirited folks cannot win at the ballot box, they resort to lawsuits to defame and delay progress.
How unfortunate, costly, and damaging this lawsuit will be remains to be seen, but nothing good can come out of it as far as the majority of the residents of Atascadero are concerned.
One would think that these zealot extremists might use their talents to benefit our community rather than tear it apart. Yes, the majority of Atascaderans are experiencing the tyranny of the minority. Yes indeed! “You will know them by their fruits.” Dare I say, rotten fruits?
