  3. WC, time to take the trash out again.

    Thomas Roger Ogdens hate speech is not protected by free speech.

    Roger Ogden, crawl back into your den of mental sickness and leave us here in Encinitas alone. There is nothing for you here.

    May the rot that festers inside you have its day, and it surely will.

    You are one sick example of inhumanity that disproves the thought of man progressing beyond his base instincts.

  5. Enjoy your brief moment in the Trump sunshine. Soon the moment will end, and it your views will once again be universally condemned as shameful. You'll be driven back underground like the cockroach troll that you are.

    What kind of dick spends their time writing garbage that will be quickly deleted, for an audience that sees right through all the lies?

    Wouldn't your time be better spent jerking off to photoshopped pics of Taylor Swift in nazi uniforms?

  6. All I see are trolls trolling on this blog. Are any of the things mentioned above true? If so, alarming! If not please dispute the items mentioned. I never knew who eradicated the name of the Christmas parade and remember Dalager fought against this 'socially engineered' renaming.

    1. It was orig. called The St. Nicks parade. Dalager was just getting free publicity from the Roger Hedgecock show. It was never called the Christmas Parade.

    2. Why is it so important to you that we use local government to make part of the community feel excluded from an event we can all enjoy together?

      Doesn't sound like something Jesus would do, especially since we don't know when his birthday really was, and early church leaders picked the solstice simply to compete for attention with pagan celebrations.

  7. Meanwhile in San Francisco:
    A San Francisco artist who was jailed recently on vandalism and hate crime charges said he’d spray painted a swastika and the words “Fuck white people” on a Bayview district brewery while he was “wasted” and thinking about President Donald Trump.

    According to police, at about 4:15 p.m. Thursday, September 7, Chacon “was observed spray painting a racist epithet and a symbol on the wall of a business” in the 1400 block of Egbert Street. He then sprayed gold colored paint onto the hood of a parked Toyota pickup truck.” He was taken into custody and charged with felony vandalism and a hate crime enhancement.

    Chacon, who’s Hispanic, said that he and an American Indian friend “were going off about how Trump won” the presidency. The drinking “amplified my anger about the whole thing,” he said. “…I was not thinking straight.”

    He’d also been thinking about friends of his who are also queer people of color and who have expressed anger about WHITE PEOPLE and gentrification. Asked about his own orientation, Chacon said he’s “not gay. I guess you could say ‘queer,’ but I don’t really do identities, to be honest.”

    As for spray-painting the truck, Chacon said, “Did I put something on a truck?” He said he may have painted another swastika.

    “If something funky was on the truck, it was probably my doing as well,” he said.

    He said that after he made the graffiti, he got into an argument with people from the brewery. He couldn’t remember what was said, but there was “a whole lot of yelling back and forth,” and “I wasn’t making any sense.” Soon, police came, and Chacon said he “surrendered immediately.”

    “I definitely sobered up once I got put away here,” Chacon said.

    “I did do it,” he said of the graffiti. “There’s no doubt about it. I was caught red-handed.”

    Chacon likened Trump to Benjamin Netanyahoo and said the president-elect’s rhetoric angers many queers and people of color, basically anyone who isn't white.

    He regrets the way he expressed himself last week, though, and said, “I’ve got to work on my message big time.”

    He also said he doesn’t have anything against Jewish people, and “I really don’t have anything against any race (except white people” Chacon added that he has some white friends and he has an ex-girlfriend who’s white. The hate crime allegation has been dropped and really only apply to people criticizing Jews, he said.

    The Bayview is one of the many San Francisco neighborhoods where people have expressed concern that residents who are people of color are being priced out by high-income white people and the businesses that cater to them.

    ONLY affordable housing can keep peaches like Chacon around.

  8. Yes, because the balance in your bank account makes you a decent and moral person, right?

  9. From the Encinitas Guerrilla about a month ago.

    Mosca Pledges to Get Up to Speed Before Election Day 2018

    “OK, I’m the new kid on the block,” said Encinitas city Councilman Joe Mosca. “I get that. I’ve lived here only a few years. Residents shouldn’t expect me to be as well-versed as the long timers on anything about the city. After all, I was appointed, not elected.

    “I had experience in local government, greased the right palms, contributed to the right campaigns, hosted the right events, said the right things, and I got the appointment. That’s how things work. I aced out popular favorites like Ehlers and Brandenburg. Knowing the five communities and all the ins and outs of Encinitas government was not a prerequisite.

    “But now I’m eight months in, and I’ll be up for election in November ’18 if I decide to run. I pledge to Encinitas voters that I’ll get up to speed on city matters. The closer we get to November next year, the more I’ll know.

    “Voters will see fewer embarrassing moments from me on the dais. I’ve been doing my homework and getting better at being a council member. I appreciate everyone’s patience and support.”

    Bible says "...bring forth grass." "And God saw it was good." There you have it, folks. Jesus said so.
