“It was not my intent to put anyone in danger by any means, and this was not an attempt to punish anyone,” Cano said. “But it was actually an attempt to have a public conversation about the importance of Black Lives Matter and how the public should continue to have that debate publicly without fear of having to hide your thoughts behind some rationale that doesn’t make sense.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
“…behind some rationale that doesn’t make sense”. \u00a0Hmmm.<\/p>\n
Of course, her “public conversation” talk\u00a0would seem less bullshit-y if Cano actually\u00a0had a conversation. \u00a0<\/em>She didn’t. She took the four dissenters contact information from a city server, and published it on Twitter – which is sort of like “having a conversation” with someone after you’ve hung up the phone with them.<\/p>\nAnd her “conversation” – like Heather Martens and Kim Norton before her – is, of course, a monologue; everyone who criticized her on Twitter got blocked; she responded to no media requests.<\/p>\n
Which is an interesting response for someone who claims “”I did it out of a belief in government transparency and public discourse”; \u00a0intimidate dissenters, ignore questioners, hide from reporters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
