Remember last time Mayor Mike Rawlings went to Facebook to ask for feedback on a controversial topic of citywide import?

Paula Blackmon, the mayor’s chief of staff, said the tweet that went out an hour or so ago wasn’t a call for comments, per se. There were so many comments on Rawlings’ Facebook page that they began falling off, leading people to think they were removed and respond accordingly. The “What do you think?” post was letting people know to comment in the designated app.
