We needed a solid safety director in 2005 for the mini-riot caused by the unwelcome nazi guests which might have lessened the impact of that brief event.It looked like the city was on fire with raging mobs running wild in the streets.
Unfortunate as that was, this last trip around we had none of that. Reinbolt was not safety director then as he was for this last event.
Bob Reinbolt was NOT the city's safety director for the NSM's second visit, which occurred in December 2005, and that was a non-event.
I don't blame Toledo area residents for their ignorance, since those two NSM visits in 2005 occurred a hundred years ago.
I do believe that after the April 2015 NSM visit, all or most of the Toledo media should have been suspended for 30 days for irresponsible reporting.
Ahead of the April 2015 NSM visit, the Toledo media liked to compare the issue with the NSM's "previous" visit, which the media implied that it occurred in October 2005. Obviously, that was false and irresponsible.
For some reason, the Toledo media glossed over the December 2005 NSM non-event that was also held at One Government Center. That's why this humanoid knew that the April 2015 NSM visit at One Government Center would be another non-event because of law enforcement's real Circle Toledo clamp-down.
For the April 2015 NSM visit, law enforcement used or borrowed from their December 2005 plan with additional enhancements.
Placing the April 2015 NSM visit into proper context by harping on the December 2005 non-event would have been boring reporting.
I understand why the Toledo media misrepresented the facts last spring. It's because showing or discussing the October 2005 neighborhood riot caused more interest and fear ahead of the April 2015 visit.
If the April 2015 visit was a planned march in a South Toledo neighborhood, then the acceptable context by the media would have been to mention what happened in October 2005.
