Yes!Weekly reports that Zack Matheny was verbally accosted by Skip Alston at a county commissioners’ work session because he did not cite the civil rights museum during a presentation about downtown Greensboro.
Of course, Alston is a thug. That has not changed for at least thirty years he has been in the public limelight.
But this story is especially interesting because Matheny often sought and obtained the Simkins PAC endorsement in the past. He curried the favor of people like Alston. Some might argue this makes him a sell-out. He might very well be the best we have on the city council right now– but that is not saying much.
The city of Greensboro and Guilford County are both starved for good, principled, ethical political leadership.
You are correct Alson is thug, a socialist thug. Commissioner for life !
I really wonder what he thinks he has to gain by acting like this, Fred. Perhaps he was just trying to cut Matheny down.
