Preserving The American Political Philosophy

Today my voice in the Boothbay Register discussion Addressing a national crisis locally: Can the Boothbay region solve its housing issues? was again removed, most likely by the user Islandmanz.  Some months ago, I was confronted in Hannaford by a person employed by the Department of Economic and Community Development .

Steve Woods did not make an appearance, at least not in his true identity. For all we know about Abigail Adams, she could be Steve Woods.
