There has been a lot of buzz regarding tonight's events at The Capital Playhouse, and even rumors that the PPU was involved in organizing the protest. This is not true. The PPU would not endanger it's members by taking part in activities that could potentially cause physical altercations with law enforcement. We wish to work with the local police, businesses and government to improve the lives of our members. It is unclear as to whether or not a blockade of the doors will happen tonight, but regardless, the PPU does not condone or support those actions. We wish to overturn the ordinance through legal means. We support those who are working with the city on what to do with extra money to be directed at services. We support those who peacefully protest, even in front of a city councilmember's place of business, because we feel that when you make the decision to run for office and ultimately take office, you open yourself up to a new level of accountability. We believe that councilmembers who cast a vote should either stand by it or admit publicly that they made a mistake.

Thank You.

Please call 359.3293 for more information on the PPU and our activities.
