UCLA Hosts Hate Jews and Israel Conference—Not Hate Speech?

By Stephen Frank on Aug 24, 2018 09:40 pm
We are told that supporting the Constitution is racist and hate speech.  Promote President Trump is a trigger for hate speech.  Think it is OK for a white male to be a professor, obviously hate speech.  But, UCLA thinks it is OK to host on this taxpayer financed campus a conference prompting the hatred of […]

High Speed Rail Using Unsafe Trucks and Drivers—Community Roads Endangered

By Stephen Frank on Aug 24, 2018 09:38 pm
The people of California are not safe—the High Speed Rail Authority is using tax dollars meant to fix rods and streets for a political boondoggle—that will need massive subsidies to operate, if the system is ever completed.  Now we find these folks are also making it dangerous for the local communities as they use out […]

With Strike Vote Looming, LACOE Warns It May Rescind Board Authority If LAUSD Does Not Keep Financial House In Order

By Stephen Frank on Aug 24, 2018 09:36 pm
LAUSD is both financially and educational collapsing.  In 2016 they gave 45% of its diploma’s to kids with a D average—in other words, functional illiterates.  Now we find they handle their finances like they handle education, poorly.  The L.A. County Board of Education isi threatening to take over the District—if they do not get their […]

State Legislature Proposes Additional Protections for Criminals at the Expense Of Victims

By Stephen Frank on Aug 24, 2018 09:33 pm
Democrats can not find enough ways to put criminals back on the streets, without punishment.  SB 54 protects felons from foreign countries—using the police to protect the criminals from deportation.  AB 109 opened the doors of the prisons, getting the crooks out of jail years before their sentences ended.  Prop. 57 allows the theft of […]

S.F. Superior Court Forgives More Than $32 Million in Unpaid Court Fees

By Stephen Frank on Aug 24, 2018 09:31 pm
San Fran really does not enforcing laws or making those that break the law pay for their cost to society. “City leaders on Thursday announced that San Francisco Superior Court has forgiven $32.7 million in outstanding debt owed by people who have been in jail or on probation. This summer, the San Francisco Board of […]

Big City Climate Lawsuits Put Taxpaying Citizens At Risk

By Stephen Frank on Aug 24, 2018 09:29 pm
We have real criminal problems in our cities and States.  People are buying guns to protect themselves from the crooks government allows on the streets.  In the case of California, Sacramento is putting criminals on the streets at a record pace.  Protection?  Cops are protecting the criminals not the honest citizens.  Instead of putting the […]

Downtown Sacramento High-Rise Would Include Dorm-Like Units For Capitol Workers

By Stephen Frank on Aug 24, 2018 09:24 pm
I am not sure about this issue.  I am glad the private sector is developing affordable housing for the young in Sacramento.  But, on the other hand, it is a dorm like facility, not very private, just a place to watch TV and sleep.  Yet, no one is forcing the young people to live here.  […]

California Legislature Approves Ban On Paying Ballot Initiative Signature-Gatherers By Each Voter Signature

By Stephen Frank on Aug 24, 2018 09:21 pm
Most of that cost is the collection of signatures—sometimes paying up to $5 a qualified signature.  The money adds up and that just gets it on the ballot.  Now the Sacramento politicians want to make it illegal to pay for signatures.  Instead, you will be allowed to pay by the hour!  That is whether you […]

San Fran “Poop Patrollers” Make $185,000 ! Wages and Benefits

By Stephen Frank on Aug 24, 2018 09:18 pm
The headline says it all—a college degree is no longer need to “earn” $185,000 a year in San Fran, wages and benefits—you need a pooper scooper, not a degree. “We detailed last week how city authorities have finally decided to do something after thousands of feces complaints (during only one week in July, over 16,000 were recorded), the cancellation of a major medical […]
