It is very hard for somebody looking at this situation from the outside to know exactly what's going on. Loveland is indeed a very nice place to live and visit. The Amazing Race is one event on one day of the year. It seems short-sighted and counterproductive to decide not to visit or move to Loveland over this issue. That only results in loss of benefits to yourself, the businesses and residents of Loveland - all due a situation over which they have no control. Leave the politics to the parties involved.

Amazing there was NOTHING in the Loveland Herald about either the race or this controversy. But the headline is how Mr. Carroll is getting a raise.

This is clearly political backpedaling. The issue is crystal clear. City officials extorted $5000 from Lovelands Amazing Race. The race costs the city of Loveland $0.00. It brings the city good will, new visitors, thousands of dollars in charity, business for the small businesses that thrive here, and an event that pulls the community together. Tom Carroll has seen fit to pull this city apart, threaten the existence of this race, commit an illegal act of extortion, and drag his dim-witted flunky the mayor into it with him. You can't handle the truth Tom Carroll. It's ugly, just like your deeds.

Tom Carroll must go I propose a rally on June 25th starting at paxtons ending at the works demanding he be removed and get all the press there. Carroll must go he his a clown and I challenge him to a boxing match for charity.
