Leave it that way. Let em burn candles and solar power. It’s better for the environment and besides, native Americans didn’t buy power from company’s who damed up rivers and killed salmon? Right? A city full of socialist hypocrisy.
You don’t use electricity? Off the grid completely?
Oh, you’re a black belt Trollogist? That’s cute.
I don’t tear down statues of history and claim arcata is Indian land that belongs to the natives that once lived there. Yes I burn electricity, diesel fuel, wipe my ass with trees,kill animals for food and vote republican. O and yes…. I’m not a hypocrite. You must live in arcata, I’m sorry.
