I think it is imperative that when Sudo has a meeting to
discuss and/or vote on Matt's proposal that such a meeting
be open o the public, at a convenient time and day, and
that Elliot and witnesses to his violent behavior be present.
Otherwise I would be unable to know if our policies are
fair and just.

While I wasn't there for this latest instance,
this is the second time in our new location (I was present the first time) and at least
the fourth instance related to sudo room, of Elliot escalating a situation to a physical,
even violent, response on his part.
I am no longer willing to tolerate this behavior and continue to risk all the love, care,
and work that goes into making all of omni commons, and each collective, a thriving and
safer community and space.
In sum, it seems evident that Elliot's continued involvement in omni commons is
already a greater cost, and even greater potential risk, than a revocation of his
privilege to use the space.
I propose sudo room in particular revoke Elliot's non-member privilege to access the
sudo room, and therefore the omni commons, until Elliot can provide the sudo room
membership with tangible evidence of a new investment in the prevention of physical
violence and marked improvement of his own behavior in this regard.
