"On his fb page, bob buckhorn wrote that the city of Tampa was really shining over the week that we had thousands of guests to our community. I’d say that Tampa HAD a chance to shine, but it wasn’t because of the lavish setup in curtix hixon park and not because the TPD were directed to clean up downtown by telling the homeless to disappear until the events were over. What would have made Tampa shine would have been people from all over seeing Tampa residents taking care of one another and acting with compassion and kindness."
