HAHA, radio personality John Corby (610 WTVN AM) had a promo today offering airfare, hotel and spending money for two to Arizona. This is totally blowing up in Coleman's face.

Was this vendor the city of Columbus?

Or, did you hold it against all business/people in Columbus because of the actions the mayor took in regards to city government exclusively.

City government restrictions does not equal every company and person in Columbus also having restrictions.

Exactly why Coleman shouldn't have made his asinine new rule...

Like I said it was a toss up. I could have decided against Columbus anyway. The mayor just made the decision a little easier.

The mayor is the elected leading representive of the city of Columbus. His words and actions can and will impact everyone living adn working within the city limits whether it be good or bad.

...The mayor of Cbus is a turd.
Why wouldn't ANY state along the Mexican border not create the same laws on illegal immigration like AZ did? I for one applaud what they've done,

I imagine once the law becomes effective and the required lawsuits have been dealt with, we will see more states doing the same thing.

Yes it does.
With as much as the word racist is thrown around recently, why would anyone care if they were called this? I mean, if you know your not, this word being used in almost every situation someone doesnt agree with you so they call you a racist to hurt, the word loses some or a lot of its sting.

This is a shame, because there are those out there that live their lives with hate of another because of skin color, religion etc. The demeaning of the word is doing a discredit by demeaning it in the eyes of a lot of people.
