Rosie Vasquez made herself into another public spectacle, today at the Fall Festival.

Angry over residents exercising their First Amendment right to Free Speech by passing out flyers, Rosie grabbed the microphone away from performers ON STAGE in front of Jimmy's Restaurant, and yelled at the public that they should ignore the "propaganda" being passed out.

On lookers were stunned at the unprofessional, harried, fanatical manner in which their council woman behaved at the public event.

Several "boos" arose from the crowd as Vasquez tried to persuade them to ignore the flyers being circulated by Referendum proponents.

The flyer in question simply told the story about Athens $18 Million Dollar lawsuit brought by the AQMD over numerous, on-going, violations and inviting the community to attend the Oct 8th council meeting to force the council to put the Referendum on the ballot.

Vasquez is a hypocrite.

Rosie was harassed by police, elected officials, and other opponents to the 2006 fire initiative and the 2007 recalls of Lopez-Reid, Bagwell and Sicama. She yelled at the top of her lungs that the harassers were infringing on her "constitutional rights."

We guess that what's good for the goose isn't good for the gander in Rosie's book.
