HI, I herd on TV that the bars are all the time coming to the city for the past 2 years.

I am in Los Angeles CA in the USA and I cam up with some plan to stop this!!

The hight of a bare is about 10 to 15 feet, that is big!

You will and can save the city like this. Make a 20 feet high that will cuber the city and stop the bars from ever stepping in to the city. Make it like you will make a sky sky scrapper so the bare cant clim it with his long nails.

The rood that is near the lake and river that people like to run or ride there bike make a wall most of the rode so the bare cant get in make it with a wall at he end.

The bare needs to cross the rode some time so make it with a wall at the end.

You shod make a door that is 5 feet hie and 3 feet wide so only a man can get in if he needs to. In the city where you go fishing make the same kind of door with a litter brig and door so a man can go fishing and a bare can get in.

This is all what I have to say so start this today before some more people get heart or die. I am just thinking about people and the bars.

Thank you for reeding this.

Alaska is screwed again by the Legislature. What was the point of a having a hearing on that lap dog General if he was already vetted aa Lt. Gov. The Alaska National Guard thanks you for taking this bozo. Now you are stuck with this arrogant, narcissist who knows everything. Cheers!!!!

THe following is great thoughts for these times. The Alaska Legislature made a cowardly decision confirming Craig Campbell. From Josiah Hollands's writings. "God give us men! A time like this demands strong minds, great hearts, true faith and ready hands; Men whom the lust of office does not kill; Men whom the spoils of office cannot buy; Men who possess opinions and a will; Men who have honor; men who will not lie." That says it all. Wish the Alaska legislature would have acted boldly and NOT confirmed Craig Campbell who is very unethical and lacks integrity.
