You Elected the Luddites, Not Me

Don Samuels and R. T. Rybak - just two more in the never ending cavalcade of reasons why Minneapolis sucks:

While I do value our freedoms. . . there are some of them that our community has not demonstrated the responsibility to bear. . . and. . .one, for me, would be certain freedoms within this new electronic category which has been as lethal as the guns that are pervasive on our streets. . . . I don't think that we have demonstrated the capability to deal with this freedom, neither by the ones who perpetrate it as weapons or by the ones of us who are called upon to oversee the responsible utilization of these media. Until that day comes, and until, personally speaking, I . . . cease to be a victim of the irresponsible use and incapacity to supervise the freedoms (?) that are now brought to us by these incredible advances in technology, I will have to vote against--and again, again, and again--until we demonstrate responsibility and supervising capability for our new freedom.
The amazing thing is that the frightening technology Samuels portrays as dangerous and subversive is public-access cable TV. My God, are there no depths to this asshat's disconnectedness?

If you watch the YouTube clip of this . . . pair . . , it's hard to decide if they're arrogant and power hungry progressives or merely profoundly ignorant chickenshits. Either way, Minneapolis, you bought that ticket; you take that ride.
