Rancho Santa Margarita, CA - Janet Virginia
Strong, a former Orange County Sheriff's Department (OCSD) investigator
faces trial tomorrow for filing false reports by lying that she had been
in contact with victims of serious crimes, including robberies and
criminal threats, and that no further investigation could be done. Another

Hate Crime and other Numbers can and Do Lie

Last week, Attorney General Jerry Brown
released what he characterized an "encouraging 2009 annual report
showing that hate crimes in California fell by more than 20% last year”,
but warned that “ we are still a long way from ending bigotry and
prejudice.” According to the Attorney General, the decline in hate
crimes reflects an overall drop on all types of crime in California. At
about the same time, the Anti-Defamation League reported a sharp increase
in hate crime incidents in California last year. Amanda Susskind, regional
director for the organization said the trend was troubling and and blamed
the increase in anti-Semitic incidents, on the confluence of the election
of President Obama, the recession and the Israeli incursion into the Gaza

In a piece published in the Red County last
week, Assistant Director of the Center for Constitutional Jurisprudence
and adjunct professor at Chapman Law School Karen Carpenter Lugo not only
argues against the building of a Mosque close to 9-11 Ground Zero, but
argues for a national mosque litmus test. Using what appears to be
Islam-phobia, Ms. Lugo quotes from Bernard Lewis’ Islam and the West:
“There is only a single law, the shari’a, accepted by Muslims as of
divine origin and regulating all aspects of human life: civil, commercial,
criminal, constitutional, as well as matters more specifically concerned
with religion in the limited, Christian sense of that word.” When

Syndrome Pandemic Sweeping Southern California
Friday, July 30, 2010, 6:28:57

Apparently the Bell Syndrome is a pandemic
sweeping through Southern California. The Bell Syndrome is when a
parasitic bureaucracy becomes irrational and its decision-making focuses
strictly on self-preservation, not unlike the smoke-filled back room
negotiations which concocted Stupack’s Soul Sale, the Cornhuskers
Kickback, the Teachers Payola, the Union Bribe or the Louisiana Purchase
in order to pass Health Care Reform – more like Parasitic Bureaucracy
Feed Reform. Or what is going on in Agoura Hills’ Morrison Ranch
Homeowners Association, where the board is in essence funding a $1.000
fence for a $1 horse, not to mention the parasitic bureaucracy passing as
City Hall in the City of Bell, California, City Manager Robert Rizzo,
Assistant City Manager Angela Spaccia, and Police Chief Randy Adams were

City Hall and DWP – Poster Children For Parasitic Bureaucracies
Friday, July 23, 2010, 6:22:29
PM
What does it take to terminate an incompetent
teacher, or a public sector employee for that matter? – an act of God.
Consider that of six DWP employees suspended with pay, in April, 2010
after a KCBS Channel 2 / KCAL Channel 9 aired an undercover story showing
the workers buying beer, drinking in a park, drinking while driving and
entering a strip club, while on the job, said employees not only would
have two weeks to respond to the charges, but said employees would be
represented by International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers attorneys,
the union that represents the employees. If these attorneys are worth
their weight in gold, such as the ones used by the California Teachers
Association, chances are the employees will not be terminated, and id they
are, they can retire with a golden parachute to boot. Snookered

With much experience apologizing to world

Syndrome Pandemic Sweeping Southern California

Apparently the Bell Syndrome is a pandemic
sweeping through Southern California. The Bell Syndrome is when a
parasitic bureaucracy becomes irrational and its decision-making focuses
strictly on self-preservation, not unlike the smoke-filled back room
negotiations which concocted Stupack’s Soul Sale, the Cornhuskers
Kickback, the Teachers Payola, the Union Bribe or the Louisiana Purchase
in order to pass Health Care Reform – more like Parasitic Bureaucracy
Feed Reform. Or what is going on in Agoura Hills’ Morrison Ranch
Homeowners Association, where the board is in essence funding a $1.000
fence for a $1 horse, not to mention the parasitic bureaucracy passing as
City Hall in the City of Bell, California, City Manager Robert Rizzo,
Assistant City Manager Angela Spaccia, and Police Chief Randy Adams were
allowed to have a combined salary of more than $1.6 million! Coto

Did you know that the Franciscan manzanita, a San Francisco city native bush, thought for 60 years to be extinct was spotted late last year? The bad news is that the bush was right o the path of a billion-dollar freeway. The thoughts were to move the freeway and leave the plant alone. In the end, the San Francisco County Transportation Authority, in a move we often characterize as typical parasitic bureaucracy, decided to move the plant a cost to the taxpayer of $175.000.00. “We took this very seriously,” said San Francisco County Transportation Authority c José Luis Moscovich after the plant’s discovery.
