Bay Area Houston

The warning signs are all there.

And they all point to La Marque city councilman Joesph Lowry. La Marque City Councilwoman Kim Yancy held a press conference late Friday evening to address the harrassment of citizens of La Marque, Texas City, and Dickinson by Lowry. On que Lowry arrived spewing his unfounded allegations of illegal activity as he has been doing for years. The video provided by Harvey Freeboard can be viewed here. At 10:30 the press conference starts. At 24:00 Lowry begins his disruption. At 26:34 Lowry is stared down by Mr. Beard.

Lowry is an elected official yet acts like a character from South Park. During the event one of his targets of harrassment towered over his fat ass challenging his continuous lies causing Lowry to sweat like a pig and retreat to his mini van to call his police friends for help. They came and questioned those who were under attack first.

Yancy was right concerning the political violence in La Marque and blaming those who tolerate it, support it, and laugh about it. She questioned why law enforcement has refused to address the multiple complaints against Lowry. Lowry enjoys harassing people. He enjoys the division he creates. He revels in it. He blogs about it on his Lousy News Network as if he is a journalist.

The La Marque police, the Galveston Sheriff, and the DA must get off their racist, lazy assess and stop this harassment before they are held accountable for any political violence.

The signs are there. Do something or shut the fuck up about “stopping political violence”.

From L Marque City Council Member Kim Yancy:

GM. We need your prayers. I am having a press conference outside at 6pm in front of La Marque City hall today (Friday, September 12th) regarding the political turmoil & abusive racist rhetoric being tolerated and protected in our County. Please come. The Press is invited.

I can only guess who this is about.

La Marque City Council held a special meeting to address their financial crisis. More on that below.

Councilman Joseph Lowry suffered broken arm while running around the room patting himself on the back yelling “I TOLD YOU SO! I TOLD YOU SO!”. Lowry was rushed to the hospital and was pronounced stupid.

But seriously. I took one for the team and watched the entire meeting. It wasn’t pretty. You can watch the meeting once it has been posted on the Council YouTube channel. Good for the Council and the members of the administration for keeping a cool head and swiftly moving to address the problem. The City addressed the situation with a press release which you can read below. Here are the important points that were made during the meeting:

• For a number of reasons the city overspent and has resulted a severe shortfall in their budget.
• This shortfall left the city with enough funds to continue operations for just a few months
• Immediate action had to taken to prevent defaulting on obligations
• The Council focused on what action to take and not on who to blame (Lowry)
• The City Manager stated very clearly that there was no fraud, no abuse, no one was running a cabal (not her words) no one was stealing money. All the baseless allegations that have been made over the last few years were just that, baseless.
• One of the reasons there is a shortfall was due to FEMA dragging their feet on reimbursements to the city. That is in the millions of dollars
• Another was the lack of revenue due to a number of reasons
• And another was the lack of accurate reporting to the Council
• They discussed the mismanagement of information concerning the budget between various administrative departments and City Council
• They needed a solution which included temporarily raising the tax rate, short term loans to cover operation expenses, and of course cuts to services.
• The City has already proposed solutions to address the shortfall and voted to move forward. Of course the individual who created the problem in the first place voted no.

So They have voted on a solution while Lowry sits back and types left handed continuing to baselessly blame the Cabal of La Marque.
