Why presuppose a need to go backing 'em into a corner? That's the way
it'll be seen, and it would just kill what support there may be. A
petition indicates opposition in their eyes, too, and that gets them to
wondering what the other side may have to offer. I can guarantee you the
scrap dealers, for instance, can get more signatures, and have more pull
in Atlanta. They put food in a lot of mouths, and that's not to be
aneezed at in rural Georgia. There are enough whipped dogs here anyway,
that's a big part of the state's problems, probably the biggest. 10% of
the population is behind bars, and people think this is a good thing.
Let's give 'em a chance, not kill what support there may be. I've got
some irons in the fire here. Please don't let's screw things up turning
this into some kind of "cause". This is getting way too political, and
that's not the fucking point.
Geez, next thing somebody will be saying there oughta be a law. You can
count me out of further involvement if things go that way. Let's try to
focus on a win-win scenario for everybody, instead.

I want to thank
those parties who have offered a home, but my best guess
and my gut instinct is that it's going to take the governor's approval
and maybe an act of the legislature to take the 960 out of the state. If
you're playing at that level, you're way ahead of me here.
A petition would certainly not hurt. Maybe some of us could get bigshot
friends to sign on.
