Episode 2
Ever wonder how an ordinance becomes a law? Well, join me on this fantastic journey through the seedy underbelly of public policy creation. In my longest episode ever, try to relax while I walk you through no less than 6 public meetings about a dubious ordinance of unknown origins and justification that seems hand-designed by some dark entity intent on destroying Gather Church and, with any luck, just may succeed in finding a reason to arrest Cole Meckle.
I'm kidding. It's Swope. He's peddling an ordinance under "accountability" again and, yes, it appears solely directed at Gather.
