Be careful, you may just run out of republicans to vote for.

You do not own a home. You are a renter. That makes a difference in my book. All you have to do is give 30 day notice. So do not put Fullerton home owners down for protecting their home, that they pay the mortgage every month. That is just wrong of you. I am not saying renters are not residents. I am saying if you own it is different. Can you say they have invested in Fullerton. Your landlord invested in Brea.

Oh, I *care* about Brea, but aside from being a legislative candidate and (for several terms now) a precinct captain here, I’m not that politically active here. As I’ve said many times, it seems light a well-run city, notwithstanding its Republican City Council. Pleasant place to live, vibrant mall and downtown, and not politically crazy.

If Brea were the best place to put a homeless shelter, I’d be fine with it. Supervisor Nelson, who represents both, says that it’s Fullerton. So, OK, then!

No, attorney fees. Easy mistake to make, if you’re ignorant.

I rate that comment as two Zionists plus a Tatar.

You are a respectable exception to the generalization, van. Nevertheless, it’s generally true. “Fred” Alcazar flatly copped to it somewhere around the time you wrote this.

I don’t think that he should have died that day, Mickey. I think that the police — especially Cicinelli — handled it poorly. My views on that have never changed.

If you read carefully, though, you’ll see that my statement was about the hypocrisy of the hive mind here wanted to honor him — seriously, were you here when it got quasi-religious around the time of the recall? — not about my desire to honor him. My feeling is that he represents a cautionary tale against excessive use of official force and against ham-handed handling of the mentally ill, and I know that many police officers agree with me on those points.

I can think that Kelly Thomas deserves some honor — without believing that he acted entirely appropriately in the half-hour before he was killed. Many people don’t always do so.

Partly because I’m working at my non-job, masked man. Just deposited another nice check, too.
