And let's not kid ourselves, Rupert controls
close to a majority of the news sources
Americans have access to these days. He
owns the aforementioned paper detailing
the intimate relations between Douglas and
his bi-polar movie star wife, more television
news stations than can be counted, including
FOX, and lots of other media. So when
Rupert decides to turn the tide of public
opinion one way or another, you can bet his
talking heads and “experts” are on the job
telling America exactly why they should
agreewithanddistributeRupert's opinion.
Too much of America thinks what Rupert
decides they should think and too many
Americans know only what Rupert decides
they should know. Rupert obviously thought
it was important for everyone to know that
Douglas says he got his throat cancer from
having relations with his wife, not the three-
packs of cigarettes he smoked every day.
This kind of control is very ugly and very
big brother…and it's also very real and scari-
er thanFreddyKrueger.
I suspect that may be part of the reason
that my heroWarrenBuffett just bought him-
self another daily newspaper. I suspect he's
going to try and fight the tsunami of misinfor-
mationwithwhichRupert is flooding the air-
waves. Anyway, I hope so.
Way to goWarren.
explain how they correct the eye sight to
three plus people per day. Then the
Penrickton Center for Blind Children locat-
ed in Taylor will help us understand how to
handle a blind and multiply handicapped
child. Another interesting project is the
Greater Agency for the Blind who will show
us how they assist the blind and remove bar-
riers that may be an impediment to their liv-
ing.
I think youwould agree our work is never
done and we need more folks to assist in
theseworthy projects. TheLions are a group
of people who come together for one pur-
pose and that is helping those in need. If you

Camera traffic enforcement
plan called unconstitutional
To the editor;
With many local municipalities, counties,
public universities, school districts, and the
state itself coming under greater and greater
pressure to reduce wasteful spending and
increase revenue, to balance budgets as
required by law, it was only a matter of time
before the manufacturers of "Red Light
Cameras" would pitch their products and
programs to our state legislators and gover-
nor.
The hurdle for use of unmanned "traffic
control safety devices" is relatively high due,
in part to Michigan Attorney General
Opinion 7199, issued in 2007, declaring that
"…citations for civil infractions for disobey-
ing a traffic control signal based on the pho-
tograph or video produced by an unmanned
traffic monitoring device at a location other
than a railroad grade crossing conflicts with
the Michigan Vehicle Code, 1949 PA 300,
MCL257.1 et seq, and, thus, is invalid."
We all know the power to change
Michigan law begins in the Legislature and
ends in the governor's office. To subvert this
fundamental process, on May 22, Rep.
Wayne Schmidt (R) introducedHB4763. The
bill defines a new category of violation - the
"civil offense" which would enable Michigan
political subdivisions (cities, townships,
counties, etc) including publicly funded uni-
versities and school districts to bypass AG
Opinion 7199 to pass local ordinances and
rules with the force of law, but none of the
protections. (SeeHB4763, Sec 752(1).
HB 4763 represents clear violations of a
vehicle owner's right to protection under the
law. Without a police officer on-scene towit-
ness the violation, apprehend and identify
the driver, issue a citation, and testify in
court if necessary, the sixth amendment's
confrontation clause is clearly invalidated.
Owners of vehicles photographed by these
devices are automatically assumed guilty
and proof of innocence rests on the citizen,
not the state authority.
And the fine for such a violation is exorbi-
tant. Beginning at $130 and adding any fees
and costs officials can dream up, the possi-
bility for new revenue is boundless. Fines
collected in this manner would be split 50/50
between the city and the state after taxpay-
ers fund the purchase, installation, mainte-
nance, and processing of citations. (Sec
752(8) AandC).
Manufacturers of these devices who sell
their equipment and services to municipali-
ties will earn millions. Despite their claims,
there is no independent verification that
photo enforcement devices improve high-
way safety, reduce overall accidents, or
improve traffic flow. However, many states
who fell victim to this revenue producing
scam (California, New Jersey, Florida, etc)
are now taking action to remove or deacti-
vate them.
HB 4763 would clearly open the door to
increased abuse of drivers' rights, andwith a
simple amendment in future, could pave the
way for the use of unmanned speed enforce-
ment cameras and traffic control drones
over Michigan's freeways, in an effort to
enforce such "safety" violations as speeding,
seatbelt and child safety seat use.
Could it be that revenue, and not safety is
the bottom line when it comes to using
unmanned red light cameras for traffic con-
trol?
Would our gullible legislators so blatantly
sacrifice the rights of the hard-working citi-
zens of Michigan in order to produce the
additional revenue promised by the manu-
facturers of these systems?
Call and e-mail Rep. Wayne Schmidt and
yourMichigan legislators and let your voices
be heard.

city employees, citizens groups and individ-
ual residents. The city made a concerted
effort to involve everyone interested in help-
ing to find some solutions.
When a volunteer citizens group wanted
to reopen the financially insolvent library,
they were encouraged to come up with ideas
for funding and cost savings, not summarily
dismissed as unqualified to help solve the
problem. Obviously, they were very success-
ful and with the help of the city administra-
tion, brought the library back.
The city took advantage of help wherever
it was offered and put volunteers in place
wherever feasible and safe. These were dark
times, budget wise, in Romulus, but there
was a palpable spirit of community and of
cooperation in city hall. Sure, there was a lot
of stress and many late nights trying to hash
out plans to maintain services residents
expected and deserved, satisfy commitments
made to employees and protect jobs. The
administration at city hall was one of the first
to accept salary and benefit cuts, leading by
example.
It wasn't an easy time, but it was a reward-
ing few years of small successes, building to
financial stability without arbitrarily passing
the burden on to taxpayers.
Mayor Alan Lambert led the administra-
tion staff through that quagmire of financial
problems and with the help of some pretty
smart managers, some dedicated employees
and citizens determined to help, managed to
come through to financial stability.
Romulus, and Lambert, have faced other
difficulties, with the corruption charges lev-
eled against a former police chief and sever-
al officers winding through the court system
and the recent police search of the mayor's
home.
But four people want his job now that he
has decided to step down, and including four
incumbents, 15 residents want to serve on
the city council.
That says, to us, that public service in this
community is looked on as something of
value and still carries a mantle of respect
and authority. These candidates obviously
believe they can make a difference, that
their opinions will be respected and that
they can work in an established climate of
cooperation, dignity and respect to make
Romulus a better city.
We think they're right.
And they owe a debt of gratitude to
Lambert and those who served before them
on the council, for establishing that atmos-
phere of a cooperative, responsive adminis-
trationdedicated to the community.
Let the campaigning begin.
Rupert
