One of the fear tactics used by the other side has been that the ordinance would result in all kinds of difficulties for religious organizations and businesses. I think that you will find that in the 12 years these ordinances have been in effect they have had little or no negative consequences like those described by the religious right. Perhaps the past mayor of West Lafayette, Sonya Margerum, or the current or past Republican mayor of Lafayette could be asked to give their perspective. Although Lafayette was first and we are proud of that, I think Lafayette is generally considered to be a fairly conservative industrial/rural town compared to Bloomington.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
