to Mayor Bates,

I was proud to say that liberals are open minded folks who are working toward peace for the world....but now I feels that you and the council has tainted that...what you and code pink did was twist the constitution to work only for you... you do not even have the common sense to see what you did was wrong.....what so hard to admitted to your mistakes and apologize to the marines and their families....marines are one of the armed forces that help gave us our freedom here in the U.S....they are the ones that gave you the right of free speech...and you can not even have the right on mind to appreciate it....I will support whatever bills or legislative that might oppose the council...I hope that the people of Berkeley would start a petition to kick you out of the office and your councils too....Berkeley is one of the great city in California and now you have tainted it reputation...it was known to be a n educated community where you could learn freely and that they would not be any oppression of any kind....you petition was a oppression on the marines right for free speech... have you thought of that......
