NAPERVILLE COMMUNITY TV
— Marijuana Legalization Impact On Naperville (DIERSEN: Needless-to-say, each
and every mayor and each and every city council member in Illinois and each and
every candidate for the aforesaid positions should state on the record that
they will vote to pass ordinances a) to “opt out” of the retail sale of pot and
b) to impose zoning restrictions on the commercial growing of pot. The Wheaton
City Council is seeking applicants for city’s vacant North District City
Council position. Applicants are asked to submit a statement identifying the
three most important issues that they believe the city needs to address in the
next two years as well as their opinion on how those issues could be addressed.
Needless-to-say, applicants should state that discouraging pot usage is one of
Wheaton’s most important issues. According to Capitol Fax’s Rich Miller, “Dude,
I got news for you: Cannabis is already in your neighborhood. Your neighbors
are consuming it, perhaps even right this moment. And most of your neighbors
want it legalized.” SEE: https://capitolfax.com/2019/05/07/moylan-apparently-doesnt-realize-that-people-use-cannabis-now/)

— Can an Employer Legally Withdraw a Job Offer after It’s Been Made? (DIERSEN:
In 1971, when I was 22 years old, EEOC got Oldsmobile to agree to stop hiring
Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. That directly resulted in Oldsmobile
withdrawing a job offer that I had accepted. That directly resulted in my
accepting a job offer from IRS.)
