<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">I, for one, did not know that Raytheon was coming to our town. </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">I think it is AWFUL. </span></font></p>
<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">If it were not a done deal (as it appears it is) I would definitely want a bigger discussion and I for one would petition that they not come.</span></font>

<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">To say that a large manufacturer of weapons of mass destruction coming to our town is great for economic reasons is silly to me. Should we be hoping that the US decides to bomb other innocent civilians and start more wars so that raytheon can lease the other 10%? Maybe if we bomb both Iran and Syria Raytheon might want to build at the Cafritz property too.

<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Someone asked if there would be a discussion if GE (who also produces weapons) would be welcome. I wouldn't be thrilled about them either. So often on this list people talk about the charm of Riverdale park and I don't see how Raytheon fits in.

We would all be against it because of the potentially dangerous/lethal products being produced that might contaminate our community and affect our children. I guess as long as the company is manufacturing products that kill other people's children then its ok?

<p><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">I am extremely disheartened that Raytheon is coming here. That's my personal opinion.</span></font></p>
