If a person is "afraid" of speaking out, revealing perceived wrongdoing or lawbreaking on any part of the government, then they are not fit to lead and don't deserve a leadership role in that government, even a municipal one.

Hey Republicans...
The answer to your rhetorical "question" is that she, that is the Mayor of Hoboken, didn't say anything before because she was rightfully afraid to. It's just that simple.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/10024359521You jackoffs say the same thing when you tear at each other about why Obama doesn't stand up to the corporations, the CIA, the NSA, the military or whomever is the Boogeyman Of The Week. "He fears for his survival" or that of his family, or some such shit.
Sounds to me like Democrat leadership is chock full of cowards from the bottom to the top. They only speak out when it's "safe" or politically advantageous. What say you?

10. When a bully rules it is very hard to stand up and speak out until he/she is caught in the act.
A "bully"? My God, you are some shrinking violets over there. Always yammering on about a bully this and a bully that. Politics ain't the varsity cheerleading squad. Comes a time when you have to grow up and stop worrying about being stuffed in your gym locker by the Mean Girls. If you want to be in charge of something, nut up and show that you can carry the weight.
Oh hell, who am I kidding? These are the same numbnutz who won't leave the house for fear of mass shooters, and believe every car or small plane crash is the result of a black op.
