The Virginia Freedom of Information Advisory Council has weighed in with an advisory opinion on the scenario I laid out regarding the city of Charlottesville, Virginia's absurd denial of my First Amendment rights. The opinion was written by Alan Gerhardt, Esq., the Executive Director of the Council. Essentially what the opinion says is that no, the city of Charlottesville can't do what they are doing to me, but in the same breath, yes, they can keep doing it until you force them not to, through legal action (assuming a judge rules in my favor.) They are more or less thumbing their nose at me saying, "Go ahead and do something, we dare you. LOL!" We may get to that, but first, I need to continue to gather facts. In the short time since the denial, I've gathered some interesting ones that likely won't look very good for the city of Charlottesville who coincidentally won't even acknowledge emails from me any longer, or at least they haven'...
The Charlottesville Transparency Project is now live on Muckrock. The goal is to bring a little sunlight to a city that certainly appears to need it badly. The Charlottesville Transparency Project is a 100 % self-funded, non-commercial investigative journalism project and public service to the residents of Charlottesville and the entire state of Virginia.

Totally free and legal to speculate. What I find interesting is that they always hit you on residency, but never seem to address the other half of the section of code referencing representatives of news media organizations. So weird. It's almost like it's by design or something. Anyway. Both of these guys have media backgrounds. Just some food for thought.
