Country Club Disguise
So some Country Club members are against the purple line, so they decide to set up a "grass roots" movement. Why couldn't they just oppose it on their own? What are they afraid of? I'm guessing being seen as a bunch of country club folks against a transit line. isn't as good as a grass roots movement. It might look like they are thumbing their nose at commonfolk. Kind of like this guy.
The country club in question, in the Bethesda, MD area, appropriated (stole), part of the ROW of the old B&O Georgetown branch after the county took possession. Now they don't want to return their ill gotten gains.
