You can always fore-go electricity and heat BG and move to the tent city, and live like the half of the world who do not have property rights.  Until then you are a hypocrite.

The ytown city leaders will show their same kindness with the same kind of behavior they did with mahoning ave residents.

Ten days later and the blown-out fracking gas well is still leaking.

Imagine if this happened in Youngstown and officials had to evacuate 15,000 people for 10 days.  Where would all the people go and where would they stay?


Protect Youngstown.  Pass the Community Bill of Rights in the next election.

About 25 families in eastern Ohio have been unable to live in their houses for the past three days because of a natural-gas leak at a fracking well that crews cannot stop.

Families were evacuated from about 25 houses within a 1.5-mile radius of the out-of-control well.

Imagine if this happened in Youngstown.  A 1.5 mile radius of evacuation would include thousands of Youngstown residents.

Protect Youngstown.  Pass the Community Bill of Rights in the next election.
