Anti-noise group 1 percent of population | Letter

Editor, I believe that Citizens of Ebey’s Reserve spokesman Michael Monson has a Facebook page called “Eye on Congress District 6 WA.” When I asked about this on the “Eye on Congress District 6” Facebook page, his response was, “Your presumption is unfounded, Isabella Scotts.”

Editor,

I believe that Citizens of Ebey’s Reserve spokesman Michael Monson has a Facebook page called “Eye on Congress District 6 WA.”

When I asked about this on the “Eye on Congress District 6” Facebook page, his response was, “Your presumption is unfounded, Isabella Scotts.”

The facts don’t lie. Yesterday I was reading on that Facebook page, “Protect Olympic Peninsula.”

On the post “PDN’s reporting of the new noise study proposed by our Congressman,” there was a comment from the “Eye on Congress” Facebook page that read “Eye On Congress District 6 WA: If Derek Kilmer is having an independent sound study done for the Peninsula, he should invite a civilian who knows about sound testing to observe. Keep this transparent! If this is done without an observer, no credibility.”

That post was signed by none other than Michael Monson.

Looks like the COER is responsible for many Facebook pages.

COER is misleading people about how many supporters it has against jet noise. COERs’ lies and games never stop.

I hope that Congressman Kilmer and Congressman Larsen can see through the continual lies from COER and realize that COER makes up less than 1 percent of the Whidbey Island population while the other 99 percent support Whidbey Island Naval Air Station and having the Growlers on Whidbey Island and training at Outlying Field Coupeville.

Our Navy pilots deserve the best training available to them, and that is at OLF Coupeville where they have been practicing since the 1960s to be prepared to protect the United States.
