As someone who is troubled by the polarization of our country between the two parties, I have to say that if there is a silver lining to the black cloud that is Measure Q, it’s that I, a proud Democrat, and the vast majority of my Democratic friends, are in agreement with a large number of Republicans in Laguna that Q has the potential to devastate future small businesses in our beautiful, quaint town, as well as tie us up in litigation for years to come, resulting in more derelict storefronts and exceedingly expensive special elections. And yes, I have read and studied the entire (long, convoluted) measure before coming to the conclusion that I am a strong NO. Hooray to us for finding common cause. So rare in America these days!
