Just ran into this on Twitter on what appears to be the mayor's official Twitter page. Does she really have this much contempt for her own constituents, or is this an impostor account?

And she's more together than the last one. LOL Not moving there was best decision we made in retirement. We chose nearby Lynchburg--safe and still sane.

With deep seated feelings like those she should move on to a place she holds in higher regard. My guess is she won't get a second term unless there is more compassion in her soul than her writings.

And things like this is why I no longer recommend people move here and why I chose not to retire here as I originally planned. C'ville was once a great place to visit. No longer.

She should resign, but is the flip side of the coin in a city where the deification of Jefferson is stifling. I don't think there is another city in the US where this happens.

Why represent a place you hold with such contempt? Im sympathetic to BLM and pretty liberal myself, but thats not the right place for her if she hates it so much.
