Claws out at election

Before I even speak to Nancy Beech, I’d like to take a moment to respond to G. Stone’s public attack on her. While checking community bulletin boards for garage sales, I found Mr. Stone’s very angry letters all over town, questioning Nancy Beech’s ability to be a County Commissioner. Apparently, his issue was that he was not happy with a sprinkler system her company had installed at his home “several years ago.” Recently, at his request, she sent her employee to troubleshoot a problem, parts were needed, and it has been a week and Mr. Stone hasn’t heard back from Nancy. Although I believe totally in everyone’s right of free speech, I feel strongly that this is not the right forum for Mr. Stone’s business complaint and political comments. How about using the Better Business Bureau and the candidate’s public meetings?
