| Publisher Description: Alex Tsimerman has become not just an annoying perennial candidate for elected office but the most prolific troll of Seattle public meetings on almost any topic, always eager to hijack public comment periods to spew anti-Semitic and anti-government propaganda and occasionally worse. Creating flashpoint after flashpoint, our Puget Sound commons is at increased risk of losing 20th Century informal public input tools such as public comment at public meetings.Now one author has documented the struggles Sound Transit as a government and he as a transit activist have had in dealing addressing Tsimerman, interspliced with one of the few genuine public policy successes the City Government of Seattle has had in recent years. This tale comes to a stunning, stirring positive conclusion after these stress tests of the commons. |
