If you are referring to my comment (which I'm not sure as you referred to "some people"), I wasn't suggesting that. I was simply suggesting that without some actual content from this particular meeting, it's not fair to paint the residents with the typical NIMBY paint brush that "some people" like to wield.

After reading Waye's comments about the actual reasons for which this project was opposed by the current residents of the neighborhood, it seems that they have a legitimate concern.

All I was trying to say is that generalizing public groups through broad assumptions is never a healthy situation and does very little to help understand and solve problems in the world. That's all.
