That's good. I will say that although that guy seems to have broken a few rules, he was making huge strides in bringing back downtown Youngstown, something that nobody else has been able to accomplish. In that regard I almost think he should be given some slack because he was accomplishing something that would benefit a lot of people in the long run.
Human history is one long string of people bending and breaking every rule to push our species forward.
