“The Walrus and the Carpenter were walking close at hand; They wept like anything to see such quantities of sand: If this were only cleared away, they said, it would be grand!”
With respect to Lewis Carroll: the “kind” intentions of the developer PAC, Liberate Laguna, and the candidates they endorse, bear a close similarity to the above protagonists.

Perhaps a better reference would be; “We had to destroy the village in order to save it.”
