I agree with everything you've asked. This motion, which went straight
<br>
to a vote smells bad. Particularly, after seeing how there's some vile
<br>
rumors on social media about LNC members.
<br>
<br>
Because this motion smacks of having an origin tied to those rumors.
<br>
Which would explain why it wasn't created with transparent and
<br>
introduced straight to a vote.
<br>
<br>
Further, my objections are that it means that fellow LNC members are
<br>
falling prey to rumor and manipulations.
<br>
<br>
IF that's not the case, I'd be interesting in hearing about the sudden
<br>
reason for this, and why it was handled they way it was. Plus, who
<br>
authored this?
