text: The "we know best" zealots have attempted to "weaponize" various worthy goals, such as "affordable housing," but they always seem to go silent when they're pressed for evidence _relevant_ to the specific thing they're touting, such as SW-SAZ.
  
  They also rely on canards, like [not so] "observant citizen's" swipe at "inexperienced locals." 
  
  So, when "observant citizen" replies (if she does), she should identify all the folks who did the "heavy lifting" on S-C and S-JW and point out their lack of experience. Otherwise, she should quit with the ignorant slams at good people who care for their neighborhood and will put the time in to develop sensible, pragmatic and politically viable solutions. And, who pretty clearly have a lot more "experience" than our anonymous "observant citizen."
