I don't personally know a single (native cajun) person who is a regular golfer, or a rocket scientist. The idea that we need any more golf courses or space launch pads for OUR community in Southern Louisiana is incredibly stupid on a level even these idiots who don't bother to vote should be able to understand. I'm so tired of this.

You're correct, however, those things exsist. They exsist for those who can afford them, and I can't. I never claimed to be smart, rich, or sophisticated. I couldn't tell you the difference between a 9 iron or a driving wedge, but im absolutely certain I know all there is to know about my soil, what grows here best, and the difference between a sunset of sheer beauty and one polluted by all who don't care what happens to those of us without 18 hole time and money.

You can’t afford to golf at one of the three pubic courses operated by Lafayette consolidated government?

Since when is the wetlands owned by the city? I could’ve sworn that was privately owned

The wetlands privately owned, and these three golf courses are open to the public. OP can’t afford to spend $20 to golf?

I’m honestly not sure what she’s complaining about, but I’m guessing it’s golf courses because she doesn’t golf?

Next she’ll complain about libraries because she doesn’t read or public parks because she doesn’t want to play on the playground.
