Public Service Commission Buckles Under Pressure; VICTORY! -- THE REVOLUTION HAS BEGUN

Organized Taxi Drivers Gain Victory Over Public Service Commission Rate Decrease

FLASH: Baltimore Police twitter; TRAFFIC ADVISORY: There is a planned protest by Taxi Drivers in the downtown area scheduled to begin at 12pm EST. Expect delays.

AGAIN: Baltimore Police twitter; TRAFFIC ADVISORY: Update the scheduled Taxi protest has been moved to 200pm in the downtown area.

(see letter sent to Mayor Dixon, the police, and others warning them impending gridlock from massive staged protest)

Note: We made history and that damned Baltimore Sun paper doesn't even know it. I must give the Baltimore Sun some praise for even running this story, but read my whole piece, then watch all three videos, and see if you don't agree with me they should be blasted and ashamed. Tis a pity we lack true variety in journalism in this town.

It's amazing what can happen when determined people get together and focus their energy. Since I'm no longer a newsman, I'll let the Baltimore Sun tell you what happened from THEIR perspective (see that guys, it's a link to an outside FOR PROFIT SITE!) What they won't tell you, because they either don't have a clue, or just don't care; is that I had a small behind the scenes role in this major symbolic victory. Folks, this is a big story! Much bigger than anyone at The Baltimore Sun realize. And for that, I pity them for not grasping the full magnitude of this huge victory that took place in this great city today. A city with a proud history of active resistance since it's very beginning (by the way, I'm not from here, but I know my history).

Let me explain. The much maligned Maryland Public Service Commission has been the subject of extremely harsh criticism over a wide array of issues. Every where you look people are pissed of over their actions, or INACTION on matters concerning the public good. The reason the real story not told by the Sun is truly a mystery, because this marks the FIRST TIME, in recent memory where the will of the people prevailed, over the doings of the PSC. Think about it, if I'm wrong, CHALLENGE ME! There's a comment link below, you can do it, I DARE YOU!

Also, if you haven't already, watch these three videos, AFTER reading the Baltimore Sun story above. See if you can't figure out what my minor behind the scenes role in this major public victory may have been. Then ask yourself, why haven't they called me to get my perspective? If they truly want to cover news, shouldn't they provide comprehensive depth on a story? Tell me if you figured it out. I'm waiting to hear from you.

Oh, and I bet my critics out there will try to say all of this inside information I'm giving you is either worthless or not newsworthy. Thankfully, some of you can connect the dots and then there are some people . . . (shaking head) . . . that remain forever clueless.
