Dahn firmly expressed commitment to keep investing his time and resources in community service, cited instances when his critics accused him of not adequately addressing the district’s needs.
He labels those making such criticisms as agents of the devil disseminating falsehoods, simultaneously vowing to directly confront them by taking the fight to their doorsteps.
