How dare people get together without your knowledge!<br /><br />What happened was your blog post was linked on reddit.com and quickly shot to the top. It was a hot topic that you openly mocked throughout your post. Reading through your posts it is easy to see that you aren't concerned with anybody that isn't your base. You have no regards for the 44% of District 9 that didn't vote for you. They are still your constituents and deserve to be heard. You belittling them on a public forum exposes how callus you are toward them. <br /><br />Burkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18137830836186267653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583992405568389357.post-5791457373041669112017-01-30T18:41:40.242-08:002017-01-30T18:41:40.242-08:00Mr Peterson,

I found your blog very insightful and informative. <br />Thank you!<br /><br />I'm sorry you had to endure the "Fire"!<br />Stay strong and hold fast to True and Correct Principles!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583992405568389357.post-83290020656420317312017-01-30T09:17:06.383-08:002017-01-30T09:17:06.383-08:00As a conservative Republican, I don't really u...As a conservative Republican, I don't really understand their upset. If these protesters were comfortable expressing their beliefs, why should they be so upset that you photographed them doing so? I read your blog and agree that it is completely benign. They seem to be perfectly accepting of vulgarity and the blatant public display of private things, (things I personally think are better kept much more circumspect). You provided them an additional venue displaying their signage and such. Did they truly expect to find general consensus with their views here in conservative Utah? If so, they are pretty unrealistic. If they truly wish their message to be heard and understood, they must be willing to engage in meaningful dialogue, not vitriol. It takes both sides to communicate, not just one.Evehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17149486794923784554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583992405568389357.post-54062903974320670642017-01-30T04:21:56.382-08:002017-01-30T04:21:56.382-08:00At least one sign made sense to me, and I can agre...At least one sign made sense to me, and I can agree with it. "When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes duty."<br /><br />Your post didn't seem mocking to me. I thought it was a courageous attempt to find the message. Not many legislators tried to engage and listen.Christiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00120938480649306175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583992405568389357.post-24294333335741703022017-01-29T16:32:12.608-08:002017-01-29T16:32:12.608-08:00Hmm...I think judging less and listening/being ope...Hmm...I think judging less and listening/being open more might help you be more liked and successful as a government official.

Utah is a very difficult place for anyone not extremely conservative to be heard. Not only heard, but listened to, given a grain of salt, etc... This was a group of people who are outraged by the current events taking place, and are trying to be heard, not only in Utah. When you posted your blog it was a slap in the face for many people who already feel that you, as someone who is responsible to represent them, has not only ignored their plea to be heard, were mocked. Messages are not only communicated through words. Your message was not only in the words you chose. You conveyed a message with your attitude and with your actions. That is why I and many others are disgusted in your behavior and your decisions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583992405568389357.post-77525657009019384682017-01-29T06:23:12.381-08:002017-01-29T06:23:12.381-08:00It's easy to be a victim and obvious you will ...It's easy to be a victim and obvious you will never understand.
