This morning Eddy and a group of homeless setup a makeshift camp outside City Hall. This should have been no surprise to anyone since be promised the Mayor that he was going to do just the same.
Eddy is a man of his word and a champion for the homeless and underserved communities. His tactics sometimes are aggressive but it shows his passion. I am not going to comment or accept comments on his character or who he may/may not be affiliated with — that is not the point of this post. What I do see in Eddy is a person who is passionate about stopping corruption and intimidation in the City. Mayor Tuerk and his APD promptly arrested Eddy because he “had an outstanding warrant” and it can be heard on Facebook. The police officers protected his privacy and did not indicate what the warrant was for or why.
What troubles me is that it seems that the Mayor and Police Chief are targeting Eddy because he is outspoken against the morally corrupt administration and they are silencing him. Why wasn’t Eddy arrested last Wednesday at Council if he had a warrant? They claim the homeless violated an ordinance.
Clearly, the Mayor is loosely enforcing the ordinance when it suits him. Is it the loitering ordinance? That states you cannot obstruct access to a public space or building? Has anyone paid attention to the front of City Hall? There is plenty of space to house the homeless.
This is further proof that this administration is a bunch of bullies that are hellbent on silencing anyone that does not fall in line with their bullshit.

His passion for causes is amazing. Curious what he was arrested for? Didnt seem to be doing anything wrong.
Free Eddy! Keep doing what you do. The Mayor clearly hates you and is acting on that hatred. He is a small man and continues to show it each day.
It is so awesome that you are so deeply under his skin.
The Mayor is a coward. Why doesn't he meet Eddie in a back alley with his can of soda? Needs APD to do his dirty work.
The mayor is a classic bully who hides behind his big bad dirty police department
