Imagine you were a city council member in a certain mid-size eastern North Carolina city. Imagine learning one morning that in your district, a quarter-mile from your own front door, city-contracted excavators had scraped the ditch alongside two historic cemeteries, exposing and damaging headstones and concrete kerbing.
What would your public response be?
Tell me you would have one.
The city placed cones around the damaged marker late Friday morning. But look left. Is that another?
No? Neither you nor any of the other six council members, nor the city manager, nor the assistant city manager put in charge of the project?
No.
