Fairness Doctrine
If you haven’t seen Netflix’s “Get Me Roger Stone”, it’s a must watch, especially with his current
legal issues. One of Roger Stone’s theories is “If It’s Public Domain, It’s
Fair Game”.
I was recently on a KHSU radio post-election discussion panel
with five other local political pundits and the topic came up of the North
Coast People’s Alliance, SJWs (Social Justice Warriors) and social justice
unions who attacked Eureka City Council candidate Anthony Mantova over his
Facebook posts from years ago. They sent out mailers and wrote many Letters To
the Editor against Mantova using his own words against him. In their mind, if
it was anywhere in social media, then its fair game to use against the
opposition.
I agreed. So here’s what I said during our KHSU talk
show. I sent this photo to a local communist propagandist, errr journalist who
said, “I’m not printing that photo. It makes him look like a radical,
environmental hippie.” Your words, not mine, pal.
If I was running former 5th District Supervisor Ryan
Sundberg’s campaign, that photo would have been sent numerous times to every
voter in the 5th District with the caption, “A leopard can’t change its spots.”
“Who do you want as your 5th District Supervisor?
A radical, environmental hippie or …”
(OVER)
Smiling photo of incumbent Ryan Sundberg in his suit and
tie at a Board of Supervisor’s meeting.
I would have had Ryan Sundberg state publicly over and
over again, “Why hasn’t Sungnome told the voters about his drunk driving
arrest? I dealt with my DUI arrest back in 2010 and the voters know all about
it. Why hasn’t Sungnome disclosed his arrest to the voters?”
I would have made sure that Ryan Sundberg was
at every single public forum and amended his schedule to be there.
I would have told any developer with a
controversial project to wait until the week after the election to bring it
forward to the Board of Supervisors. If I had to listen to one more of
Sungnome’s radio commercials, “I believe in clean water. I won’t allow a hash
lab to be built next to our county water supply to poison all of Humboldt
County residents for some greedy developer.” I was gonna puke.
(For the record, Eureka City Councilmember Austin
Allison has voted to put five hash labs in Eureka, including one near the bay,
our precious Humboldt Bay where 70% of California’s oysters are produced).
Finally and
most important: I would have had a team of Sundberg supporters in Hoopa a week
after absentee ballots were mailed to “ballot harvest” a few hundred votes. Election
volunteers can now go door-to-door and pick up absentee ballots and hand-carry
them to the elections office.
If all the
above was executed in a coordinated campaign strategy, do you think Ryan
Sundberg might have swung 149 votes to change the election outcome? But hey,
what do I know? I wasn’t his campaign brain trust.
Arcata
One would think the City of Arcata
had enough issues with the unsolved killing of a HSU student, severe housing
shortage for HSU students, along with vagrants and drugs on the Plaza to worry
about the President McKinley statue on the Arcata Plaza. One would be wrong.
Let’s give some perspective here. Quoting
the Los Angeles Times, “No other city has
taken down a monument to a president for his misdeeds.” By Arcata voting “NO” on Measure M, they set a horrible
precedent for other cities to take down Presidential statues. Not to mention,
are these same regressives now going to protest the town’s name of “McKinleyville”?
What’s the difference?
Arcata Mayor, Sofia Pereira was
quoted in the Los Angeles Times, "Is there a difference between honoring
McKinley and Robert E. Lee? They both represent historical pain." Good
thing our local regressives never traveled in the South, nor ever read the
bible or a history book. Pick the country - France England, Spain, Germany,
Poland, Yugoslavia, Italy, Greece, Russia, Brazil, Japan, China, Korea, Cambodia,
Burma; they all have historical pain, but have evolved and moved on.
Manifest Destiny? Name a U.S. President from
George Washington to William McKinley that wasn’t part of manifest destiny?
Personally I think it’s much worse to set up puppet governments in foreign
countries and start wars for bananas or natural resources.
Open a Bible, Torah or Koran. Lots of
historical pain in them pages, such as murder, rape, genocide, incest, and
beheadings. Looks like we have to remove every church, synagogue and mosque as
we can’t have any historical pain in Arcata (including Bayside).
Next, let’s open your wallets. See
that face on the $1 bill? That’s George Washington, our nation’s 1st President
and Commander of the Continental Army. Wanna know why he was the Commander of
the Continental Army? A couple hundred years ago he killed a lot of Indians.
That’s historical pain. To alleviate your pain, gimmie all of your $1 bills.
Next, let’s get rid of Washington, D.C., the Washington Monument, the NFL’s
Washington Redskins (OMG, double whammy there) and the State of Washington. Any
public schools named “Washington”? Gotta go.
“Washington Redskins? Trigger words!
Trigger words!”
Deal with it, snowflake. Maybe you
should go to your safe zone and get some therapy.
Thomas Jefferson, our 3rd President
owned slaves. More historical pain. There goes the Jefferson Memorial. Any
public schools named “Jefferson”? Gotta go.
Let’s move on to the $5 bill. Abraham
Lincoln approved the largest mass hanging in
United States history of 38 Santee "Sioux" Indian men at Mankato,
Minnesota on December 16, 1862. That’s historical pain. Now gimmie all
of your fives. The Lincoln Memorial in DC – gone! Lincoln, Nebraska – gone! Any
public schools named “Lincoln”? Gotta go.
It gets better. Any $20 bills in your
wallets? That would be Andrew Jackson. Google “Andrew Jackson nickname”. A
slave owner whose nickname was “Indian Killer”. He’s known for the Trail of Tears, or the removal
west of entire Native-American peoples. That’s a lot of
historical pain there. Gimmie all of your $20 bills. Any public schools named
“Jackson”? Gotta go.
The $50 bill would be Ulysses S.
Grant. A raging alcoholic who resigned his commission in the Army in 1854
(that’s pre-Civil War for those who don’t know history). While President, he
signed the “Peace Policy”, which furthered the genocide of Indians during the
Manifest Destiny westward. Yup, more historical pain.
Gimmie all of your $50 bills. Any public schools named “Grant”? Gotta go.
Yup, history’s a bitch.
See local regressives, don’t ya feel
better removing all those historical painful religious buildings and handing me
all that historical pain in your wallet?
I got a better idea Arcata. For your
penance of historical pain you’ve inflicted, why don’t you just give Arcata
(and Bayside) back to the Weott Tribe? Yup, just move out tomorrow. And while
we’re at it, why don’t we give Northern California back to the Native-Americans
and Southern California (along with Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas) back
to Mexico. Screw Manifest Destiny and the United Stated of America! We can all
move back to Mexico, Ireland, Germany, Italy, Poland or wherever the hell our
ancestors came from in search of a better life.
There, feel better now?
You may laugh, but wanna see how bad
the PC correctness has gotten? Just today the local regressives in San Rafael
(Marin County) want to change the 150-year old name “Dixie” from the Dixie
School District, even though the name came from Mary Dixie, a Native-American
woman who was the school’s founder.
Justice for …
To put things into context, my daughter just graduated
from UCLA. The last thing any parent wants to hear is their son or daughter was
killed at college. While I feel for Charmaine Lawson (who lost her son, HSU student David Josiah
Lawson), what about “Justice for Garrett Rodriguez”? Remember, the young man
who was murdered on Murder Mountain over six years ago?
We know who his killer is. He moved back to
Indiana where he continues being a dirtbag in his local community. We have a
witness to the murder, although he may be an accessory to the crime, so he ain’t
talking. The other witness to the murder moved back to Mexico and is gone with
the wind. The Alderpoint 8 can’t say anything on record as they tortured the
alleged killer. Garrett Rodriquez’s white pick-up truck was found on the same
property where they located his buried body. However no murder weapon, no
credible witnesses and no confessions. What does all this add up to? Nothing
that will hold up in a court of law.
We have this little thing in the United States called
the Constitution. It’s not a perfect document; however the ultimate goal of it
was to let nine guilty people go free versus having one innocent person go to
jail (or worse).
A local attorney friend of mine corrected the
narrative as we don’t know who killed (not murdered) Josiah Lawson. It was a
homicide - maybe manslaughter, maybe wrongful death. We may never know. What we
do know is that we don’t arrest people because of the color of their skin. Do
you think District Attorney Maggie Fleming wants to make another arrest and be embarrassed
once again if the judge kicks the case for lack of evidence?
Lady Justice is supposed to be blind to race,
creed, color, religion and sexual orientation; although we can argue social
economic status as money typically buys a better criminal defense.
If Kyle Zoellner is arrested again, any first
year defense attorney will have an Atticus Finch moment. There will be a 2’ x
3’ poster of Kyle’s beaten face mug shot in the courtroom for the jurors to see
daily.
What does that mug shot say to you?
Who was the other victim in this case? Do you think he was in fear for his life?
How many different Brotherhood United
African-Americans punched Kyle Zoellner in the face and admitted this to law
enforcement? Why weren’t they arrested for assault?
If the alleged knife in question
comes back with Josiah Lawson and Kyle Zoellner’s blood on it, the defense
attorney will be pointing to the large poster of his mug shot and state, “Of
course Kyle Zoellner’s blood was on the knife. Look at that photo! He was savagely
beaten and bleeding everywhere that night.”
As Josiah Lawson and Kyle Zoellner
were struggling on the ground, is it possible that another person saw this,
grabbed a knife and went to stab one of these two?
Is it possible that Kyle Zoellner’s
former girlfriend stabbed Josiah Lawson?
Is it possible that one of the
Brotherhood United went to stab the white boy and while Josiah Lawson and Kyle
Zoellner struggled on the ground, twisting and turning frantically back and
forth, stabbed his friend Josiah?
There were 300 young adults at that late
night party with lots of drugs and alcohol and not a single person witnessed a
single thing. Do you believe that in the age of cell phone cameras?
Does your memory get better or worse
with time, especially if you were on drugs and/or alcohol? What did you have for dinner last Saturday night (no checking your
cell phone calendars)? How ‘bout the Saturday night before that? The week
before that?
It’s called “reasonable doubt” as only
1 juror out of 12 needs to have some questions or concerns in their mind.
My fear is that there will be no
arrest, a hung jury or not guilty verdict. Then Arcata’s regressives will riot
on the Plaza.
Humboldt Politically Correctness Run
Amock
If you haven’t seen the Fox News Jesse
Watters interview with Humboldt’s Kelsey Reedy of the Social Justice Warriors
revised women’s march, it’s a “must see TV”. Ever wonder why the rest of the
country laughs at us here in Humboldt?
“Colonialism”? Can you name a single
state in America that the USA invaded and set up a puppet government? The
Humboldt Women’s March was too white? Still waiting to hear how many Hispanics,
Asians and Jews are on their new SJW Women’s March leadership team so “it’s reflective
of our community”.
If I was to venture a guess, I think they found forensic evidence to tie the guy to the knife, but are considering the self-defense issue. However, the defendant has the burden to prove self-defense as an affirmative defense. Can't just throw it out there and say "beyond a reasonable doubt." From what I understand, the wound was a bit deep for an accidental stabbing.
ReplyDeleteBut they really do need to make a decision here. The waiting isn't fair to anyone.
