Councillor Buck responds to criticism

John McIntyre knows how to tear a strip off when he has a mind to.
He also knows where to find me when we are on the same side of an argument. I speak for myself in my community involvement. Differences may make for uncomfortable bedfellows, but not necessarily perpetual hostility.
A particular standard of political conduct is not an exact science. How a person, given the confidence of voters, can be compelled to behave in a style compatible with universal approval is a challenge.
I’ve known individuals, entirely deficient in humanity, not a smidgen of fairness in their entire make-up, capable of mindless cruelty but supremely confident of the right to formulate rules of conduct.
They have nothing to teach yet they know it all.
A self-deluded guise of virtuous conduct makes bad stuff happen.
