The fact that they are threatening a lawsuit over somethng as common as a bond issue by a municipality that has ben deemed legal says a whole bunch. They are clearly a political action group that is not elected yet is affecting the way elected officials do their job. That's not cool.

Again i dont care either way on this thing, but if this was happening in canada where a private group was affecting the existance of a hockey teams location based purely on threats of a lawsuit, people would be having seizues about it from St. John to Nanaimo.
Its not a commen bond issue, it's backed by a questionable estimate of parking revenues, if they won't pay it back it will require tax revenue to pay off which is illegal under Arizona law.
