I appreciated several articles that spoke of the vote to censor a City Council member and then the committee to recall three Council meetings. Before the vote, right after it was announced that it would happen, I wrote letter to the one I had heard it from, suggesting that the vote be postponed until all members and the mayor were tested by a professional psychologist so that we knew the status of all.

I was ignored.

So now after the censorship was passed a committee has formed to recall three of the Council members suggesting that all three are unacceptable for the same reason. I personally see three scapegoats selected to represent the problems within the city council, government.

I still maintain a professional psychologist should administer a test and evaluate the group. Would this be fair, just? I believe it is worth a try.
