On Greensboro's Saturday night self inflicted "riot"; The communities' teens were invited downtown

As Billy Jones reported; "It seems the reasons for Mayor Perkins' proposed downtown curfew may be of his own making. Last Saturday night, Downtown Greensboro Inc invited teens to their free Summer Night Lights (SNL) Movie Night  from 7-11 pm at Festival Park, 200 N. Davie St., in Downtown Greensboro."

It seems as though the City of Greensboro organized and marketed a free event in downtown Greensboro, after which a series of unfortunate, less than well controlled events occurred, which seem to have concluded in some proposals for a ban/curfew/#chittybangbang scenario on all teens in downtown Greensboro.

Some may want to calm down before they emotionally act on some incomplete information, without thinking through what the best options are, as opposed to submissively voting for what some campaign contributors want, at the expense of many who can't afford to buy themselves votes.
