about the author
Eddie Roth writes about education, social justice, public safety, transportation, legal affairs and historic preservation. He joined the Post-Dispatch editorial page in 2008 after six years as an editorial writer with the Dayton Daily News. But he is not new to St. Louis. Eddie grew up in Webster Groves and south St. Louis County. He's a lawyer who for many years practiced with a downtown firm, and was active in civic affairs, including serving a term on the St. Louis Police Board. He and his wife, Jeanne, and their three daughters, Emily, Julia and Alice, live in the Shaw Neighborhood.
When it comes to community organizing, he endorses Quentin Crisp's advice: Rather than keeping up with the Joneses, it's better to pull them down to your level.

“Rather than keeping up with the Joneses, it’s better to pull them down to your level.”
Nuff said.
What happened to the story.All I got was the headline and no story.A junky website tied into a junky newspaper!
Mr. Roth, once again, excellent use by the PD EB, of Saul Alinsky’s Marxist Rules for Radicals. Isolate your target and make them look like a fool, over and over and over again. Congratulations!
It’s 2:28 pm and I still can’t read the story.Am I a computer idiot??I am really amazed by the lunacy!!!
Steve M. - There was no story, just a YouTube video. If you don’t have Flash installed or enabled, you won’t see it.
Also, the video has since been pulled from YouTube due to a copyright claim.

Jeez people. Learn how google for goodness sake.
“Like, such as, U.S. Americans, and South Africa, the troops, yes, the troops, they are dying for my freedom not to be questioned by the evil liberal Hollywood starlets, comming to get your guns, media elite, telling lies about me.”
Didn’t she invite the evil network media liberal elites to watch her prance around in waders?
Shatner ought to stick to doing priceline.com commercials, this was pathetic.
Beam me up,Scotty!-I’ve been enlightened-FYI-Did you know there was at least one William Shatner LP (album)released in the late 1960’s.I belived he done a really bad version of the Beatles “Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds”and some other rock????songs.These are prizes colector items now.Listed E-Bay $200.00 plus.More vaulable than Michael Jackson’s “Thiller”LP!!!(Or a Mark Mc Gwire home run ball)
