  5. I can't wait for Sheila as mayor, should be the best 2 years of entertainment ever, or will the council remove her again. Is there a plan in place to remove the mayor ?? No matter whom that may be....???

    1. Since the mayor will be elected by the people, they can only be removed by a vote of the people --- not by council.

  6. From the San Diego Earth Time 1997 re: Sheila Cameron:
    hile some other tables did question the growth forecasts, the great majority of people are resigned to future population growth as inevitable. SANDAG is claiming that 60 percent of population growth will come from local births not immigration and considers public discussions of efforts to control population taboo. The singular exception to this was Encinitas City Council member Sheila Cameron who boldly advised area "women to cross their legs and men to get vasectomies."
    Do we really want this person to represent us as Mayor, or city councilwoman?

    1. Let's not be rash now!

      There's no need for leg-crossing. After all, we have birth control.

      Delete
    2. 6:29 the population in Encinitas is stable for over a decade (give or take a thousand) more important kid population in encinitas is down, and will continue downward-

      looks like Cameron was right and SANDAG- the unelected stack and pack regionalist were wrong-

      try again

  7. It's hard to understand why Sheila even wants to run as she was dumped by the Council before her term was up as Mayor. As Mayor she had a peculiar way of dealing with people, including flicking a finger on the nose of a staff person, having the fire dept. turn off the alarms so she could "smudge" City Hall; and was incredibly rude to many citizens during oral communications. Perhaps she has changed, but to me she is kind of weird. Even though she is an older woman, she dresses like a teeny bopper. Maybe that seems petty, but if you are representing our City, I would like our Mayor to be a little more put together.

    1. EU The statement of 6:42 has to do with physical traits. You deleted my post because I mentioned a "nose".

      In keeping with your policy, please delete the comments from 6:42 that characterize the way Mrs. Cameron dresses. Not appropriate according to your policy.

      Delete
    2. And 6:42 even said "nose!"

      Gray area, but making fun of the way someone was born seems far crueler than criticizing someone's choice of dress.

      Delete
    3. And I referred to it as a "cheese-slicer" - that was deleted too.

      Delete
    4. Is that really necessary?

      Aren't there policy issues you could emphasize instead?

      Delete
    5. And Gray area my back end.

      Delete
    6. EU "kinda weird" could infer that Cameron was born that way. You need to delete the comment.

      Delete
    7. Yes, Gaspar has legs. Surprise. Just like we all do.

      Delete
    8. EU You don't follow your policy very well. One day you are one way; another day you are opposite.

      Which is it. If you have a policy, stick with it.

      Delete
    9. Sorry you still didn't get the "nose" comment.

      Delete
    10. So you are allowing someone on this blog to say Sheila Cameron is weird?

      Shame on you.

      Delete
    11. Go to bed...obviously, over your head.

      Delete
    12. Cameron has a plan-

      Kranz has zip- he's useless, big taxes, big spending, big developer buddies, votes against residents all the time

      Gaspar has no plan- claims to be financial conservative- yet votes to give her croneis extra paychecks and to raid funds with no plan to pay it back and increase city debt while underfunding roads

      Cameron has a plan- and the balls to push it thru

      Delete
    13. I agree. I am not against Sheila. I think it is insensitive for someone to label her weird and EU allows it. Doesn't bode well with your past deletions. I don't like the way Gaspar dresses and I think she is even more weird.

      Delete
    14. Well now it's even. Someone called Cameron weird and now you called Gaspar weird.

      Proud of your contribution to the policy dialogue?

      Delete
    15. Just adhering to your policy.

      Delete
    16. this all proves my point. Let all the comments stand.

      Quit deleting comments WC- This is just a blog….

      Let the free conversions flow…….

      Delete
    17. There's enough on Sheila's past policy decisions and actions to discuss without diving immediately into the gutter.

      That said, I think Sheila running is not good for Sheila or the community. Too polarizing at this point and too much time has passed...

      Delete
    18. Agree --- quit deleting what people think, feel and observe.

      Delete
    19. WC is good about leaving in most comments. Personal attacks that are out of context with the initial post will bring down his blog, to the point that many people won't participate anymore.

      You don't own EU, 1:02 - 11:18. Start your own blog if you want to let hate speech stand.

      Delete
    20. 4:32. Until you know what you are talking about, don't judge. There were no personal attacks made, at least not any more or less than what most people are saying about certain members of the council. Some have been outright vicious and those comments are not deleted. Gotta wonder about the policy here.

      Hate speech is not in my vocabulary.

      Delete
    21. 4:32 so describing someone as weird or wacko is ok with you?

      Delete
    22. WC gets to decide what's appropriate here, or not, according to his own standards. If you want to blather on calling people names without addressing their positions or policies, specifically, then start your own blog, I agree.

      Delete
    23. 11:40 Isn't it past your bed time. You sound cranky.

      Delete
  8. Sheila has broad support among people who know that she loves this community and has worked tirelessly to protect it.

    2. Uh, I don't think so, but the tally will tell...

  9. If more women would cross their legs, it would solve a lot of population problems. There was a car that pulled up across the street from my home last week. My husband went out to check on it because it was around 10:30 pm. What did he find, but two teenagers in the back of the car getting it on. He flashed his light on them and told them to hit the road. Boy, did they scamper quickly.

    Men, keep it zipped also.

    4. humans are just stupid mammals always in the hunt for some puntang….


      good luck trying to change that…… while your at it, try and stop them from killing species on this planet including themselves.

    5. 9:38- this planet is here to serve mankind not the reverse.

      Delete
    6. 2:42, I think it's here to work with, not against. A garden comes to mind....

      Delete
    7. 2:42 The planet was here billions of years before humans showed up. So you're saying it's humans' right to destroy the planet to serve our gluttony?

      Delete
    8. 4:26- nothing was occurring on this planet until
      Humans arrived. So the answer to your comments is, yes. If that is what it has to be then so be it.

      Delete
    9. You're dead wrong, 7:33.

      Delete
    10. 7:33 The planet was teeming with plant and animal life for millions of years before modern humans evolved about 200,000 years ago. So I hardly think "nothing was occurring on this planet" till our ancient ancestors emerged.

    11. We are witnessing the dirty end game of the Industrial Revolution. It benefited the masses for about a century, but now its devastating effects on the global environmental integrity is becoming apparent. Greed and head-in-the -sand mentalities foster a debate on its "reality", as they really don't want to make the necessary changes to stop the deleterious impacts. Given the wars and international tensions, it is almost a certainty that no consensus will be reached on how to coordinate efforts to mitigate the industrial damage to the environment. The age of reason and appropriate response is still about 5 centuries away it appears.

  11. Kranz is cluelesss. He has about $10k in contributions.

    He lost it with the PV crap.

    ReplyDelete
  12. If Kranz really has 10K then he had better report it. That is a violation of the law.

    1. True, you have to report donations raised, so I'm sure there's a report...

      Delete
  13. 7:48 According to the Coast news Kranz didn't report any donation this time around. Maybe it will show up in the next cycle? Both Barth and Shaffer have already admitted to giving the max to him. The max would be $250.00 per person, so if you are married it is $500.00. Not sure if the children can donate as well. So, technically, if they can, Kranz may have a lot more than he has said, which is he has received no campaign funds as of filing time.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Alex donated enough money to himself for a bong load.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Kranz will rejuvenate Saturday Night Fever for his campaign image. He could get Disco Dunce Dan Dalager as his stunt double!

  16. I am wondering why the Encinitas Sheriffs department, ignores me and my request to do something about the serious drug trafficking, drug making and drug using on the south side of Cardiff. Would you think they where not interested in doing their job ? or may be they are overworked and to tired to protect and to serve!

    ReplyDelete
  17. 8:34- Maybe the sheriff is not interested but I am. Can you tell me more about the serious drug trafficking, drug making and drug using on the S. side of Cardiff. I truly have been wondering if what I think I am seeing is real. You are saying what I have been thinking just may be real. Any info appreciated.

  18. a question for all the candidates. an additional one for ms gaspar. nighttime lights have been discussed for hall park. conduit for electrical lines are in place. Are you in favor of nighttime lights-YES OR NO?. Ms Gaspar, you have been a strong advocate of sports at the new park. More than 50% of your donations last election came from out of towners, the majority of which were also advocates for more sports fields. More fields, more playtime via night lights, more injuries, and more PATIENTS for you and your husband's sports rehabilitation business. You have a conflict of interest in this matter.
