Same Reaction?

RECEIVED Tue., Feb. 21, 2017

Dear Editor,
    If Don Zimmerman had ever browbeaten and otherwise abused any of the other council members, as Greg Casar did last Thursday, you'd have called for his immediate discharge from the Council. This would be especially true if he'd reduced Delia Garza or Ora Houston to tears. You would not care if that seat sat empty for an extended time, just so the abusive party was removed. So, many of us are out here watching, to see what the Chronicle has to say. Will you let Casar skate, on the basis that CM Troxclair is not a liberal, hence a free target, or will you react to him just as you would to Zimmerman? You have many folks out here waiting for your comments.
