War in downtown St. Petersburg?



Last night was an example of how issues develop into larger problems. Over a period of a few 


months the Push Ultra Lounge has stepped up the noise late at night on their rooftop bar.


 What was never a problem for most neighbors has now become a galvanizing issue for many


neighbors and the Downtown Organizations that are trying to protect this as a residential area. 


What will happen is they will then find a battle where no battle need have been fought. The


 owners will find new permits a bigger deal than before if they want to do other things, the City


 Police which is around to protect them and all of us is now having to answer calls to get the 


noise turned down. This will create friction and they should not have to do this every weekend.


All Push and others have to do is have some consideration late at night so residents after 


midnight can sleep peacefully. Yet their attitude is make me. Is this not a microcosm of world


 peace? So the saga continues and as they continue to pollute the quiet the armies gather. War


need not be the answer, but it is easy to march to war, harder to listen the voices of reason.
