OPINION — Do you remember the “Red Scare” in the 1950s and the damage it caused to our country? Reclaim Our Town (ROT) has created a “Blue Scare” that is damaging our town.
It appears they are afraid of open-minded people and, as in the 1950s, they twist the facts to try to scare you.
ROT creates ugly signs with ugly messages. Our Town Hall has been roiling and uncivil since the creation of this Political Action Committee. The town’s reputation has suffered. The misinformation, the juvenile personal attacks and the partisan performative politics must stop if this town is to survive.
