So about half & half black vs. white. I have to say, this is one of the most insane things that I've seen in a very long time. I was almost speechless watching that video. So this is all about workers comp.....isn't workers comp already in a kitty set aside in the budget? What does she propose to do w/that $20K if they got rid of workers comp, which is probably more rational than what she's proposing? I understand it's a very small town & maybe they don't have a lot of crime so perhaps that's her reasoning? Who knows, but that is just......very illogical, stupid & downright dangerous. Rest assured, after this she won't be elected again.
