Dateline Santa Cruz California: Alleged 'Founder' Of Reactionary Anti-Homeless Group Claims Fundraising Lead In City Council Elections
Just taking liberties with AP copy as local headlines read Pamela Comstock for Santa Cruz City Council has raised the most money ($32,000) in the local council race. Pamela Comstock has claimed to be the "Founder" of the reactionary and Fascist homeless harassment group called "Take Back Santa Cruz" although their history shows a seamier origin with a gent who had been convicted of bank fraud.:"Bakunin had little time for Marx’s disdain for the peasantry and the lumpenproletariat of the urban slums. Marx, for all his insight into the self-destructive machine of unfettered capitalism, viewed the poor as counterrevolutionaries, those least capable of revolutionary action.
Bakunin, however, saw in the “uncivilized, disinherited, and illiterate” a pool of revolutionists who would join the working class and turn on the elites who profited from their misery and enslavement.
Bakunin proved to be the more prophetic. (source)
It's all good... I'm all up to:
See:
ACLU Presentation Sept 26 2012 - Human Rights & The Homeless In Santa Cruz California
I am here speaking to you this evening because I believe the actions taken by local elected officials after an attempt to perception manage the citizens of the city and county using a deranged murderer as an 'example' of their displaced people intrinsically violates US citizens' civil rights and indeed constitutes, as a whole, as a 'campaign', of Human Rights Violations including malicious and illegitimate law enforcement, endangering the homeless further by provoking potentially violent reactionary elements of the community, and leaving the homeless without the belief they can create secure shelter for themselves... Soon to be a necessity due to the county's absolute inability to house even ten percent of their homeless at the Emergency Shelter at DeLaveaga Park on any given night of the upcoming winter.
I want to know what the ACLU intends to do about this.
What I would like to see as an end result of the ACLU's court action is a state or federal investigation into Santa Cruz law enforcement practices as they affect their homeless citizens and a "Jones"-like decision including strict oversight of the city and county's policies towards that segment of it's citizenry until it has been discerned that justice, as practiced in regard to the homeless of the area is in line with law enforcement policies as practiced in regard to their housed population.

Howard Zinn On The Meaning Of Historical Research
My viewpoint, in telling the history of the United States, is different: that we must not accept the memory of states as our own. Nations are not communities and never have been.
The history of any country, presented as the history of a family, conceals fierce conflicts of interest (sometimes exploding, most often repressed) between conquerors and conquered, masters and slaves, capitalists and workers, dominators and dominated in race and sex.
And in such a world of conflict, a world of victims and executioners, it is the job of thinking people, as Albert Camus suggested, not to be on the side of the executioners. ~~Howard Zinn, Columbus, The Indians, and Human Progress [@ History Is A Weapon] or PDF [HERE]

«o» #AfghanistanSpring.
"Taliban militants launched a series of attacks on as many as seven sites across the Afghan capital and in three other cites Sunday, targeting NATO bases, the parliament and Western embassies..."Image, a besieged Afghan parliament building...
“Reports indicate the attacks have taken place in the vicinity of the U.S., German, British embassies."
"More than 10 explosions in all rocked the city, and heavy gunfire continued to be heard in the streets for hours after the first blast. Smoke rose over the skyline as sirens wailed."
"Militants holed up in one tall building were seen firing rockets in different directions, according to a witness on the scene. Some residents reported a blast near parliament as militants took over a nearby building and opened fire..."
"Ambassador to Afghanistan Ryan Crocker spoke to Candy (Crowley) while his embassy in Kabul was on lockdown. He said that the attacks showed that the US still needed a military presence in Afghanistan." ~~Candy Crowley, State of the Union Crib Sheet for Sunday April 15thSo here's what we're going to do...
[Click the image for larger, and an analysis of WTF this means.]
«o» President Obama went to Cartagena Colombia for a 'Summit of the Americas' intended to focus on trade agreements, NAFTA enforcement etc, and then 17 members of the president's bodyguard detail... well let's just say the boys in black needed a little nooky and the K street office girls weren't around:
CARTAGENA, Colombia (AP) — The Secret Service says it has placed 11 employees on administrative leave for misconduct in Colombia, where they were working on security ahead of President Barack Obama’s trip to the South American country.The other big story that occurred was a joint request for Cuban attendance at the next conference, which the US summarily opposes. That issue stands unresolved.
The agency’s assistant director says the employees were both special agents and Uniformed Division officers. None were assigned to directly protect Obama himself.
The agency did not disclose the nature of the allegations. The Associated Press confirmed that the behavior in question involved prostitutes... ...The Secret Service says it regrets any distraction the situation has caused during the regional meetings. [More @ Salon]
«o» The conference in Turkey on Palestinian issues occurred over the weekend as did protests in Palestinian territories. The Israelis also detained a number of Western activists for Palestinian rights who attempted to fly into the country to attend the protests and sent them away, including an number of international celebrities and political figures as persona non grata.
«o» Did I mention that a 30% income tax won't make a dent in the wealth of the super rich because so little of their money is taxable in the US? The senate will take up the Buffet Tax Amendment today which would flat tax all Americans 30% with some other taxes applied to those making more than a million dollars a year but too stupid to offshore bank their booty.
«o» And Congressional Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa will open his version of hearings on what's wrong with the General Services Administration. He claims there's "Possibly ‘billions’ in GSA waste".
Meanwhile, on the topic of the Secret Service getting their "Service" from Cartagena Colombia's hookers, Issa had this to say:
It's not unheard of for agents to have "wheels up parties" when the president is on his way home from a trip, Issa, chair of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, said on "CBS This Morning." At that point, he said, "you can sort of let your hair down." [More @ CBSNews]It's nice when the double standards of freaks like Issa show through, and they're too corrupt to notice.

A Synopsis Of This Morning's News...
H/t to ChrisM my MP3Angel for supplying the audio files.
«o» The much ballyhooed North Korean rocket launch did not quite go as planned. It's second or third stage failed and it fell into the ocean somewhere between Japan and the Philippines. The US is going to spank North Korea over this launch by tightening up on food aid to starving Korean civilians because 'intelligence' reports say (snigger) Spam and gubmint cheeze were used in the manufacture of the rocket.
«o» Connecticut has become the seventeenth US state to repeal the death penalty.
«o» Pro-Palestinian state rallies are scheduled this weekend in the West Bank and Gaza. At least a thousand international activists are expected to fly into Israel to participate. They are expected to be vetted by the Israelis as provocateurs and refused entry into the country.
«o» UN teams are ready to enter embattled areas of Syria with aid as the ceasefire, shaky but holding, begins to take effect.
Foreign Policy Magazine:
Syrian ceasefire “relatively respected” as U.N. looks to observer mission"...but the government said protesters must seek permission..."
The second day of Syria's fragile ceasefire appears to have held, although reports emerged of scattered violence. According to the British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, violent clashes broke out early on Friday in Khirbel el-Joz, a northwestern village in the Idlib province near the Turkish border. Nonetheless, United Nations and Arab League envoy Kofi Annan said that the truce has been "relatively respected." Meanwhile, Syrian opposition leaders called for mass protests, which are expected after Friday prayers. An advance team of up to 12 U.N. observers are set to enter Syria if given the orders from the U.N. Security Council. The United States has also drafted a resolution that outlines plans for the observer mission, which is expected to come to a vote Friday. Ultimately, Annan's plan calls for 250 observers, but Russia's Ambassador Vitaly Churkin said, "The full-fledged mission will take some time to deploy." Syria has said it will accept the monitors who could arrive early next week. Annan's six-point peace plan includes the right to demonstrate, but the government said protesters must seek permission, [In Full]
You'd wonder what the writer's point was when they penned that... That IS the standard everywhere else in the world including the United State where quite often in recent years not only has permission been denied, but in Chicago, host to the upcoming NATO meeting, the city has gone as far as create unconstitutional laws suppressing American's freedom of speech and assembly.
And remember... Capitalism has a gun at your head every moment you're alive:

[After the commentary Iris DeMent wants a word with you about our "Rich White Guy" nation... Courtesy of the respective artists.]
«o» There will be a thirty three nation "Meeting of the Americas" this week in Colombia but it's unsure whether Hugo Chavez will make it. Chavez is in Cuba for cancer therapy. He's not been looking well and the expectation is he will make some 'final' statement in regard to the revolution he brought to Venezuela.
«o» North Korea has scrubbed today's launch of a multi-stage rocket due to weather but they still have a five day window. Japan and South Korea are claiming they have the right to shoot down any rocket that passes over their territory because any rubble and debris from a failed launch would end up falling in their territory, which sounds like it WOULD BE the epitome of a "stupid nation trick" as all the rubble and debris would be liable to fall on those countries if they shot the rocket down as well, with a MUCH greater degree of certainty. More at Foreign Policy Magazine.
«o» Two more earthquakes, one a six pointer on the Richter scale in the Mexican Gulf of California. Seismologists are saying they aren't connected to the one at Sumatra yesterday but nevertheless mother nature is 'shrugging' a lot and some are saying it's weather related.
«o» Speaking of weather, there's snow on the ground in Tucson Arizona and hail big enough to break windshields, while on the East Coast there's a drought in progress with brush fires to match those dry conditions.
«o» Syrian troops are attempting to maintain a ceasefire but saying they have the right to defend themselves from attacks. The opposition is planning a large rally in Damascus and elsewhere on Friday after prayers and there is continued shelling over the Turkish border. Meanwhile The U.N.'s Ban Ki-moon says the “onus is on Syria” to keep the government’s promise and hold to a cease-fire and stated "...it may take just a gunshot to derail peace." which means it would be quite easy for the CIA fronted rebels to set the Syrian government up... Expect that. That has been their modus all along. Quote sources, Salon. Sitrep from AlertNet.

Fighting in south Yemen kills 50 so-called militantsMeanwhile, in Africa, the western-interested South Sudan breakaway 'government' is getting thirsty for (oil-rich) territory outside the expectations of their Western backers.
By AHMED AL-HAJ
Associated Press
SANAA, Yemen (AP) -- Yemeni artillery and military aircraft backing pro-government tribesmen pounded al-Qaida fighters trying to battle their way into a strategic town in the country's south on Wednesday, while a suspected U.S. airstrike killed at least 12 militants, officials said.
The fighting near the town of Lawder started over the weekend when al-Qaida attacked an army post, sparking resistance from Yemeni troops and from armed residents.
The military claims that at least 165 militants have been killed in the past three days, including 38 on Wednesday, as al-Qaida continues a costly but determined assault aimed at expanding a swath of the south under their control. The officials said six civilians fighting alongside the army were also killed... [The mayhem, in detail]

JUBA, South Sudan (AP) -- After a day of fierce fighting, troops from South Sudan captured an oil-rich border town that is claimed by Sudan, whose troops withdrew under the onslaught, a Sudanese government minister said Wednesday.
The military advance by South Sudan into territory it claims but which is internationally recognized as Sudan's brought swift condemnation from the United States and Britain. Both nations, along with the U.N. Security Council, urged South Sudan to withdraw from the town of Heglig and condemned the bombings of South Sudan territory by Sudan... [More @ AP]

«o» The Tsunami warning from Madagascar to the Persian Gulf, to the Northern tip of Sumatra due to an 8.9 magnitude earthquake on the Western side of Sumatra has been canceled. More.
«o» President Obama is out shilling billionaire Warren Buffett's plan for equalizing tax rates. More. You can rest assured whatever the tax rate is enacted for people in the stratosphere of income Warren Buffett and his kind reside in, it will not affect their net worth.
«o» Major League Baseball (tm), an entertainment company, has suspended a Miami team coach for five games and there is hollering that he be fired due to the Cuban-American coach's statement that he loves and respects Cuban icon Fidel Castro. The fellow has just helped fund the building of a kid's league stadium in Miami's 'Little Havana' but that civic act has not muted the cries for his head from Cuban ex-pats in the region.
«o» The North Koreans now have a five day window to launch a radio broadcast satellite on a multi-stage rocket. Some intelligence analysts in the US and the West are claiming it's a covert way of testing a nuclear weapons delivery system.
In OTHER News:
The following manual was recently "released by the Department of Defense".
In other words it has been 'sterilized'. But here it is.
DoD SERE Pre-Academic Laboratory (PREAL) Enhanced Interrogation Techniques Manual
...or more directly; "Learn to survive "Enhanced Interrogation" (aka torture)"
The following manual was recently released by the Department of Defense. The manual was produced by the DoD’s Joint Personnel Recovery Agency (JPRA) and used by instructors in the JPRA’s Survival Evasion Resistance Escape (SERE) courses to train participants for the potential experience of detention. According to Jason Leopold and Jeffrey Kaye of Truthout, the manual was reportedly consulted during high-level discussions in the Bush administration regarding potential “enhanced interrogation techniques.” Several techniques described in the manual are mentioned in a series of controversial memos commonly referred to as the “Torture memos” authored by Justice Department Office of Legal Counsel attorney John Yoo.
