I’ve got a feeling all those new units being built with inadequate parking in Encinitas under the pretense of the housing crisis are becoming Air BnB’s and vacation homes for the out-of town rich.
San Diego got smaller from 2020 to 2021, entirely because fewer people moved to the region than moved away from it, according to a Thursday release from the U.S. Census Bureau.
That made for three consecutive years in which San Diego had negative population growth.
Oh' trust me, rat boy goodson has been contacting bonta to try and force the ghetto apartments in Olivenhain. In summary, what is the point of having a historical area if these ass hats can come in and ghettoize that area. Along with the city of encinitas combining the lots too further ruin the area.
ReplyDeleteEverything the left does, they destroy.
Please 6:02, don't be harsh on the leftists. After all, they voted in a presidential "traitor to the United States".
DeleteThat was "wrong"?
Right wing republicans have historically stood up for the common people against the tyranny of big money. Stop laughing now.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. Unfortunately now we have the ocmmies like Kranz pushing for tripling the housing stock and destroying Encinitas in the name of "affordable housing".
DeleteYou could quadruple the housing units in Encinitas and it will not signifigantly lower the cost of housing in Encinitas due to the demand of living here.
But the way you can make Encinitas have lower housing prices is by stacking in as many people as possible and gridlock traffic like Kranz has approved and is pushing further. That plus fencing off the coastline will have a damaging effect on the quality of life in Encinitas and hence lower demand for living and visiting here.
So to that degree, Tony is effective at making housing more affordable in Encinitas by lowering the quality of life and thereby the demand side of the equation.
Spread the work - Tony is synonymous with traffic and lower quality of life.
The loss of population in the way overbuilt desert is great news. Lets get another 10 to 20% to move to places that have more sustainable water supply.
ReplyDeleteThe whole Kranz's babble talk about building affordable housing is just that, babble talk.
This City has and will continue to demand high real estate prices because of its proximity to the beach. You could double the number of units in Encinitas and it would have no bearing on lowing housing costs in Encinitas or around the region. Anybody talking about providing affordable housing in Encinitas shows they are an idiot and do not understand simple supply and demand concepts.
In fact, Kranz supports doubling the housing stock and converting our beach town to LA ASAP.
Look at all the development he pushed in along Vulcan Avenue and La Costa Avenue. Spread the word Tony is horrible for Encinitas. Tony is synonymous with traffic.
Tell your friends when you are stuck in traffic or you can not access the beach because its been fenced off be sure to call Tony and thank him for ruining Encinitas.
Affordable housing is a misnomer - it will always be market value. Now selling it out for vacation rentals for rich investors - Speedy G and Blakespear loading their pockets with cash to facilitate this investment opportunity. Roads impassable, water shortages. power rates going up - general quality of life diminishing for residents, brought to you by corrupt opportunists. Vote Blakespear OUT of politics - she is a contagen that must be stopped.

"Make the traffic as horrible as possible and it will mitigate the impulse to access our 101". So said tony.
ReplyDeleteTwo single lanes adds to such a future for us all.
This is leadership? Not for the residents. Then for whom?
Could it be the devil in sheep's clothing? [Church lady reference.}
Check out the proposed project for Dos Palmes / Hago's. Four homes and three condos (7 units) are planned for the corner of 101 and W Jason. The site is less than 1/4 acre.
DeleteWith all the parked cars, W Jason is already a one lane road up to Neptune. Pedestrians must walk in the road where there are no sidewalks. And the city thinks it is ok to add another ~10 parked cars to the street?
11:12 AM This is the State's concession to developers, allowing chaotic and out of control mega-density into already constricted areas. Blakespear is using the kick-backs from developers to fund her campaign and Speedy G is in there lining his pockets. This over-load will permanently damage these neighborhoods for their access and quality of life (character). The grifters that are supposed to represent the citizens are carpetbagging hypocrites, intent on their personal gain only. VOTE BLAKESPEAR OUT OF POLITICS! There is no rational planning in this city anymore -
DeleteHow peaceful was this weekend along the coast without that empty death machine blaring its horn a thousand time louder than anything else around. It was awesome and I heard birds chirping and kids laughing. Other bonuses no one lost their life and tons of cancer causing deisel pollution was not pumped out onto our neighborhood and adding to the GHGs.
ReplyDeleteThe coaster is such a huge polluting dangerous very harmful waste of tax payers money. Its should really be shut down and that space used for much more beneficial things for the communities.
Check out this great idea - THE COASTER
RAIL-TO-TRAIL PROJECT
Re-imagining the troubled train tracks as the most popular trail in America - https://coaster-rail-to-trail.org/
I don't ride the train but, it reads as though "you" moved to where the train is as the trains have been going down those tracks for over 100 years. Do I have that right?
DeleteIt sounds like the bozos that wanted the power plants closed in San Diego County. They got their way.
All of them are decommissioned. You fools. We now have zero power plants and depend on others for power.
Everything the left does, it destroys.
4:22am - you proved my point. No one rides the train and its a huge source of cancer causing pollution and a huge waste of tax payers money. Well less than 1% of the population or even commutors take the train yet it is sucking in incredible amount of tax dollars to operating that cancer causing empty deadly steal boxes.
DeleteAnd what are you talking about, we have zero power plants and depend on others for power? IDKAY but I put in solar over 10 years ago and I get free power and free power for all my vehicle and bike trips too. I am never without power even when SDGE goes down.
I would suggest everyone get power and start saving money. Why depend on SDGE when they are focused on maximizing profits.
Also, the most valuable land in SD county is along the coast. It's the reason we live here. The train was built back in the 1800s in its current alignment because it was relatively flat along the coast which is the cheapest place to build a railroad.
Now hundreds of years later, that 300 year old technology is outdated and is hazardous for humans along the coast, cancer causing, highly polluting and horn blaring (which is also highly damaging to public health). Not to mention the railroad berms were the first to choke off the largest source of sand to our beaches when they were laid and started damming all the sand in the lagoons.
It's time to make the smart move and convert this cancer causing assets into a clean high performer. Read up here - Re-imagining the troubled train tracks as the most popular trail in America - https://coaster-rail-to-trail.org/
6:27, please point out just one power plant in San Diego County that is still in operation. Just one...
DeleteAnd yes, it reads as though you moved to where the train is. Also, locomotives weren't around 300 years ago, the original old locomotives burned coal or wood too create steam, no diesel as they do today. Yes, power from Arizona do we depend. And oh' do we depend. Some day, people will note the need for the good ol' power plant. By then, it will be too late. Tic Toc
4:22 - you and your "everything the left does, it destroys" comment is so stupid. Why do you write this every day on this blog? Do you think that you're being profound? Clever? Orginal?? Who is the "left"? You're a fucking moron.
DeleteDan Quirk should get the San Diego tax payers citizen of the year award for this publication. Re-imagining the troubled train tracks as the most popular trail in America - https://coaster-rail-to-trail.org/
ReplyDeleteWow. Its incredible the billions of dollars of tax dollars being wasted on this Coaster. San Diego Tax Payers association were are you? https://www.sdcta.org/
Where is Surfrider on this issue? Where is the CCC? Where is the San Diego County Air Pollution Control District on this cancer causing hazard?
The Coaster should win the all time Fleece award. https://www.sdcta.org/in-the-news/2020/10/14/san-diego-county-taxpayers-association-announces-finalists-for-25th-annual-golden-watchdog-amp-fleece-awards
Um Coast News can you please run a story on this crazy hazardous and waste of billions of tax dollars. You would think the SD tribune would have already done so, right?
Maybe the voice of san diego will pick it up. They have more cojones. Please some worth news editor get this out there the public needs to know.
The CCC won't allow homeowners to protect their coastal properties with abutments or retainer walls; recently the area bordering the train tracks were augmented with 11 million tons of boulders as a stabilization solution. Double standard.

ReplyDeleteToday's installment of the Guerrilla: https://yourencinitasguerrilla.blogspot.com/
ReplyDelete"Tradition of Wackos Running for Encinitas Mayor Upheld"
Does anyone think that blog, like this one, is anything more than a mouthpiece for the Cremona/Thunder sect?
DeleteDon't forget August Anderson way back in the 80s. Her ballot statement went a little something like this: "The Earth is my Mother, the Ocean is my Father, etc. etc". It was hilarious watching her speak at council meetings in riding crop pants and watching Dave Wigginton leer at her ass. Yes, ENCI has a long history of wack-a-doos.
ReplyDeleteThe off-the-charts wackos are entertaining. They give Encinitas politics many colorful moments. But only conventional wackos get elected. Then they proceed to do deep damage.
ReplyDeleteRight you are. Seems people in this town vote for whomever looks like them or whomever they wish they could be. Image is everything, and it sure worked for the so-called "save the animals" people, then came the "put sand on our beaches", and now we have the "save the planet" crew who are nothing more than shills for the building industry.
DeleteSo anyone contending that Mayor (screaming) Karen (sic) Blakespear and her corrupt cohorts are not FAKE, PHONY, FRAUDS is also a fake phony fraud.
ReplyDeleteMany of us knew this but many refused to accept the hard factual data
(maybe the 3rd-4th-5th & 6th boosters makes people lie more than normal?)
These people are not just corrupt.
Frankly they are are disgusting humans.
https://thecoastnews.com/commentary-do-encinitas-elected-officials-pay-their-fair-share/
Hypocrisy much? yet they'll continue to take pot shots at those who catch them at it. Maybe the Mali n' Marco show would like to weigh in?
DeleteSounds like an estate-planning attorney, financial planner or CPA advised their clients, and the clients followed the advice. If you were in those circumstances, wouldn't you do the same thing?
DeleteRight, 6:23 — "These property transfers are legal and Hinze, Blakespear and their families engaged in nothing more than shrewd financial planning."
DeleteIt's not as if they're paying no property taxes. They will continue to pay current rates instead of progressive rates.
3:33Pm I'm just a mountain man, but seems t'me, it looks like Jeffro Bodine drank a little too much vanilla extract ta-nite.
DeleteTypical low IQ folks claiming it's legal and estate planning.
DeleteLet's create a law whereas property owners who glean income from and AirBnB property must register, pay money to the City and be permitted as such.
But if you're a city council person it's ok to basically tell the city to f*** right off with that garbage.
Got it.
Cool story bro
6:23 and 6:34 the writer pointed out that it's all perfectly legal. And that it's all at complete odds with the stated values that Blakespear and Hinze virtue signal. Hypocrites. But you knew that was the point.
ReplyDelete8:34 And if you were in their shoes, you wouldn't do the same thing they did?
DeleteYou keep purposely missing the point. I'm not the one running for office campaigning on paying my fair share and all of us needing to feel the pain to help the little guy. Blakepear is every time she opens her mouth. Hinze does with her fake-concerned sad look. But they don't get to have it both ways.
DeleteAre you also good with Hinze's rental that she claimed was her mother's and that she forgot to mention wasn't permitted? Profiting while shorting programs supported by tax dollars, all the while fixing a fake look of concern on her face.
Hypocrites both. Stop making their excuses.
11:12 You didn't answer the question: If you were in their shoes, would you have done the same thing they did?
DeleteYes. I would because I believe in free enterprise and the free market. Of course, I would want to lower my future taxes and expenses and maximize my profit and assets. Thats the name of the game. Otherwise, you support communism which end up like you have with China, Russia and the hunger games.
ReplyDeleteThe difference is I do not support some racist newbie screaming at all us old time existing residents, that have created and kept Encinitas the loving awesome place that used to be so family orientated and like a piece of surf culture heaven, and scream at us that we are all RACIST and should GTFO to AZ so her and her new friends can come in a great home and living subsidies glory. Afterall, Why shouldn't every human on this planet enjoy an affordable home in Encinitas?
I don't support the misnomer of Affordable Housing.
IMO, of course housing is affordable in Encinitas and in very high demand because the Governor and other mayors of LA, Sante Monica, SF and such have F'd up their cities so bad the residents all want to GTFO and move to somewhere a little better. That somewhere tends to be one of the least over developed stretches of So Ca coastline called North County San Diego.
So these politicians who are supporting Newsom's plan to continue over developing all the beach cities in the name of smart growth can kiss my ass. Let areas that want to overdevelop go like downtown SD, Oceanside, Oxnard.... lets keep some areas more relaxed along the coastline like Del Mar, SB, Cardiff, Leucadia, Carlsbad, So Oside..... fuck Newsom, Fuck OC, Fuck LA, and Fuck are asswipe politicians that keep approving local codes and laws to convert to LA ASAP. BIA, Kranz and Hinze and all the past voters for supporting them when all they stand for is:
- Converting Encinitas to LA ASAP
- Fencing Coastal Access along all north County beaches
- Building seawalls along all the North County beaches and eliminating our sandy beaches.
Join me in saying Fuck You BIAspear, Kranz and Hinze!
You gotta go!
You are right on. A tad bit crude, but right on.
DeleteThe clown act woke crowd is on their way out.
Yeah. Sorry 6:55am I shouldn't have used the F bomb and should have cleaned it up.
DeleteThey just piss me off so bad with their BS hypocritical babble talk. BIAspear and Kranz are the worst, almost lost their last elections, and need to go.
I promise to clean it up next time. Have a nice day. :)
11:12 here. No, I would not have transferred my property to children to help them avoid property taxes. Either they can make their way in the world sufficiently to afford to pay their share, or they can sell the property and find a better fit. In the cases of Hinze and Blakespear it's quite a leap of faith on the parents' parts to trust that they will do the right thing with their legal ownerships.
ReplyDeleteBoth are caught repeatedly in the "do as I say, not as I do" hypocrisy that defines Blakespear and her mini me Hinze in everything they do. Hinze's learning fast. She lied about the rental property's ownership and is one of the bad players referred to by other STVR owners and now the public at large.
They're not avoiding property taxes. They're avoiding the increases that would accumulate under the new law. I would do the same thing for my kids.
DeleteWhat century is the guy who calls liberals "commies" living in?
1:04 you might do the same thing but is it also safe to say that you're not running around virtue signaling to Encinitas voters the exact opposite?
DeletePlease specify what Hinze and Blakespear are virtue signaling Encinitas voters to do.
DeleteRead the article, 8:35. Don't be so lazy.
DeleteLame response, 10:36. If you had a good argument, you'd make it.
DeleteIf you weren't afraid you couldn't back up your "request," you wouldn't be accused of being lazy. My mistake, you're afraid.
DeleteNot afraid of a debate, especially with you because you have no argument.
DeleteYou are just too easy.
DeleteLame response, 3;42. If you had a good argument, you'd make it.
Delete11:27, you didn't answer the question: Are you also good with Hinze's rental that she claimed was her mother's and that she forgot to mention wasn't permitted?
ReplyDeleteOf course not!
DeleteHinze has her low income housing story on Keys4Homes along with fellow millionaire Roberta Walker.
ReplyDeleteLast week I sent AG Bonta a message about his response to the Olivenhain ghetto apartments. I informed him since he has probably never been too Historic Olivenhain, chances are goodson is the one that cried too him (Bonta). I informed the AG that he has been hoodwinked by goodson or his girlfriends.
ReplyDeleteYou see, clowns like goodson couldn't care less about Historic anything as long as "they/goodson" makes money.
People like goodson would sell out anyone to make a buck.
Just to be clear, I'm a conservative and find people like goodson to be reprehensible in all ways.
Blakespear and Speedy Gonzales fit into this category too!
DeleteThis Mayor/City Council has sold out the town to developers. It will become a clobbered mess, as these grifters count their 'benefits' from their sponsors. Do a "Gaspar" on Blakespear - vote her into obscurity. We do not need her incompetence at a higher level of office.
ReplyDeleteBreaking Knews out of far left crack checkers on the north coast:

News at 1776 hours
Far left radicals. 11:57, it's more like slightly left of center politicians. They may look radically left to others, because the perspective is far right enough for there to be contrast.
DeleteOnly an idiot would refer to office holders that facilitate big money developers to the detriment to the people they are supposed to represent "far left radicals".
DeleteThis is one of the definitions of fascism. It's very Trumpy. Conservatives should embrace it.
We're all talking about how money & power control politics. It will be the same with almost all elected officials. Elect whoever you want for mayor & council, and we'll see the same thing. Perhaps with a different angle and different winners, but anyone will have their favorites.
DeleteWhen we are talking a council that eclipses any wrongdoing under the Stocks regime, you'd better believe "whoever we want" is not the greenwashing, virtue signaling crew we have now. At least with Stocks he didn't try to hide who he was.

They are pouring in from the southern border and the America hating left doesn't care. If you don't know about firearms you darn well better learn. They are living in canyons, behind buildings and under junk cars. The left is taking down America from within. Lock and Load
It is estimated that 15.000 immigrants are appearing at the border daily. It is definitely at crisis level.
DeleteThe threat to American democracy is from the right, as has been demonstrated most recently by Trump and MAGA, the Jan 6 insurrection, support for Putin, the behavior of Clarence and Ginni Thomas, and media outlets like Fox and its imitators. Anybody who doesn't see that has his head up his ass.
DeleteThe high density provisions amount to building "the projects" on the former single family unit sites. Out of character high rises that eliminate yards - total congestion overload. Brought to you by Blakespear, who lead the lawsuit to punish those citizens that wanted some self-determination in how they wanted their neighborhoods to look. She and this council need to go - vote them all out!

Brutal reality
Who is behind “Encinitas Now” on Facebook? Don’t ask them, they will block you.
ReplyDeleteThey went silent after Blakespear won re-election in 2020. Verdu’s “Encinitas Politics” put themselves on “Pause” March 15th, and what do you know, Encinitas Now began posting again March 16th.
They post pictures of Encinitas surf and other news articles to draw in more members and occasionally post something related to local politics. If the constructive conversation in the comments does not go their way, they will turn commenting off quickly. Not everyone can comment, they leave several prospective members who may disagree with their narrative on “pending”. EP’s regular Omed Demiri will quickly create a new post with his “data”.
Encinitas Now states that “Admins of this group are required to be non-partisan and can't be associated with any political party, candidate, organization or measure”. Yet we only see Blakespear and Hinze posting.
Got it…. Since Omed Demiri is a “mythical creature” then He/It must be running the show?
That's not true. Encinitas Now was consistently posting while Encinitas Politics was going on, EN was posting after the election and well before Encinitas Politics pausing. Ask Bhavani Kirnak, she has commented there consistently throughout that whole time. Rachel Graves has too.
DeleteI have it on good authority that everyone behind Encinitas Politics were burnt out and had even received some ugly threats...and here you go creating rumors and speculation. Leave them be. Whatever Verdu is, he isn't a liar and he posted a really long post explaining the pause and that they are sitting the election cycle out, they aren't supporting any candidates with a PAC this tine around. You got what you wanted, they are out, let them stay out.
"Who is behind “Encinitas Now” on Facebook? Don’t ask them, they will block you."
DeleteYea, that's what Lorri Greene likes to claim. But they did NOT block her because she asked who the admins are.
They blocked her because she posted in Encinitas Votes asking people to hack them to find out who the admins are and even offered to pay. The fact that she instigated a trolling and phishing attack on their page is why she was banned.
Lorri described it herself at the time in this post: Read it yourself here
https://www.facebook.com/groups/EncinitasVotes/posts/3243435649075491/
Here's what she wrote:
Lorri Greene September 10, 2020 I had a few minutes so went over to Encinitas Now and asked who was adm? The post was deleted but here is the response they sent to me and I quote "One of your members, (removing the persons name), attempted to hack our group yesterday with a targeted phishing attack at your behest. Though we don't expect anything to be done about it, we reported the attempt to Facebook". So there you have it. Take it any way you want.
That does not answer the question, who runs Encinitas Now?
DeleteLorri asked someone to "hack" a Facebook site to determine who owns Encinitas Now? Most people I know think it's self evident that Encinitas Now is Verdu's site. No hacking required. The posts and players are identical to Encinitas Politics. Verdu's major production about "pausing" his Politics site is a joke.
DeleteSo who sent you to defend Verdu's honor, 11:44? Are you Scott Chatfield, demoted campaign manager to Catherine or his order-taking wife, Stephanie? Perhaps Omed on a typical rant? Someone sent you over here to try deflecting for Verdu and that's just sad.
11:44 - I just read all of that, and what you are saying is completely misleading. She didn't ask her members to "hack" EN, she asked a valid question "who runs EN" and shocking.... NO ONE answered.
DeleteThe question is still very relevant as we approach elections, and it should be answered.
Nope, I'm neither a Verdu or a Chatfield, simply a well-meaning acquaintance and no one sent me here ore anywhere. and it says a lot about you that you insult and disparage people that you do not know simply for having a different political point of view and/or creating a group for like-minded people. It's sad that all the groups can't seem to co-exist. Why can't people just be nice? And discuss things calmly? There's no reason to slam people or name call.
DeleteWhat has Encinitas Now done that is so bad? I see tons of anti-Blakespear comments there, people argue and hold their own with Mali, Marco and others. It seems as if any comments are deleted or people blocked, it's because they violated the rules. Stay within the rules and you can say whatever you want there.
DeleteIt's the America hating leftists in California government that has caused this insanity about low income housing for every city in the state. The nancy boy gavin newsom and his girlfriends are at the center of it all. Along with with AG.
ReplyDeleteThey couldn't care less about people and their property.

11:40 You have posted your stupidity countless times. Maybe it gives you some satisfaction and relief to rant, but it's just an annoyance to everybody else. You're not gaining any converts. Instead, you're turning people away with your simplistic views.

It seems as if any comments are deleted or people blocked, it's because they violated the rules. Stay within the rules and you can say whatever you want there."
ReplyDeleteYou forgot to add "for now." Closer to the election we can count on Mali, Marco, "Omed," Simokat, Zenick, Fox, and the rest of the mayor's explainers-in-chiefs getting out the knives - amIright? And any inconvenient truths about the mayor will be removed because that's how the Verdus roll, underneath all their protestations to the contrary.
You need to update your bias. Tiffany Fox hasn't posted any political comments regarding Encinitas or Blakespear in over 2 years. Each group has a search function. Check it out for yourself.
Delete12:08 Why in the world are people that disagree with you not allowed to comment anywhere? Disagree, let them know why, and move along, right? If you have the better (logical, convincing, fact-based) idea, it shouldn't matter who is commenting and what they're commenting on. If someone just can't bear seeing opinions of people that disagree with them, Encinitas Votes and Watchdog are there
Deleteand waiting with willing, open arms. Y'all can just agree with each other all day long and pat one another's back, then wonder why you lost another election.
OK whatever, remove Fox from the mix. The rest are already rearing their protective heads on Facebook and Nextdoor. They'll be carrying the same lies as last time, but you can pat yourself on the back for a "clean" campaign. Which is beyond hilarious.
DeleteIt's not about Fox, but I specifically pointed that out to raise the issue that several anti-mayor/council commenters insist on constantly saying things about people they can't really know or prove. Maybe if you stopped doing that, you would actually win.
DeleteYou talk about issues, but you talk about people more.
You don't know and can't prove who Omed is, so stop throwing accusations out there. It's a distraction. You don't know and can't prove Verdu is behind Encinitas Now, and that becomes another distraction.
And why is it important to you to throw names out there of people who will comment and support the mayor? How is that any different from the people who regularly comment AGAINST the mayor? They have a right to comment just like you do, true?
To someone who is neutral, you'r team's comments look just as ugly as theirs.
I've seen comments on this blog that accuse anonymous commenters of being certain people, despite the fact that can only be speculation. And I've seen people speculate about all sorts of things people have said or done.... and almost all of those people are private citizens, so why attack them for supporting who/what they believe in just as you do?
By the way, Pam Slater Price has posted comments that have been just as negative as Mali's and, in fact, Slater Price has posted some racist comments against Marco in the past that make her look extremely toxic. Just pointing out that while you say people are 'rearing their protective heads on facebook and nextdoor', Bhavani Kirnak, Pam Slater Price, Leah Bissonette, Julie Graboi, Jeff Morris, Garvin Walsh, Steve Houbeck all rear their heads in an even uglier fashion
ReplyDeleteAgree 3:41
ReplyDeletea few thoughts - Slater Price at least knows what she's talking about when she throws darts. Mali the tool is a know-nothing who takes first place in vitriolic attacks. Then plays the victim? Not working, Mali.
ReplyDeleteGarvin is a complete newbie who like Mali knows nothing but thinks his pontifications are worth hearing. They're not, they're just weird.
Morris is a loose cannon and no one but his family and a handful of the truly uninformed think he's worth their vote. Fizzle, fizzle.
Graboi would not hurt a fly that both sides can agree on so now 3:41 you are outed as a desperate liar.
None of the frustrated residents hold a candle to Omed, Marco, and Mali. None. But keep trying to claim your imaginary moral high ground.
PSP of course has a ton of experience and knowledge. The issue is that she uses her powers to work towards goals that everyone doesn't agree with, aggressively. She comes off as mean and elitist, possibly on purpose. Whether that's her true personality or not, that's the impression. The other people mentioned above could also be lovely people in person, but they consistently and aggressively go after anyone that voices an opinion they don't agree with. It's usually in coordination with others mentioned here, and amounts to ganging up on anyone that doesn't agree with them to a tee. That isn't how you convince others; it's how you piss them off and create problems you didn't previously have.
DeleteYou mean she doesn't' mince words or hide her disdain for lying and poor decision making. This is "shoot the messenger" at its finest. Get over it, open your eyes, and get outraged at the real culprits. Then vote them out.
DeleteNo, that isn't what I mean 3:28. She is needlessly mean and aggressive, way beyond what is necessary to make a point. But since that's okay with you, perhaps it would be best to stop dragging people that you accuse of being mean/rude/aggressive online. Get over it.
DeleteThere's a comparison to be made here: one of the two knows her stuff. The other is a mouthpiece who acts like a junkyard dog in her desperate attempts to defend the mayor.
DeleteNo one is being dragged "online" just referencing Mali's own words. Go take her meanness/rudeness/aggressiveness up with her if you don't like it. I'm just the messenger.
One of the two lives in Encinitas now, and one of the two lived in Encinitas decades ago. That's the most important comparison, but I'm not trying to make any. I was commenting on the hypocrisy here, and how we treat one another "online".
DeleteOne of the two volunteered hundreds of hours of her time to help found the City of Encinitas and to help write the Encinitas General Plan. The volunteers who wrote this document provided something that the Planning Department and developers have been trying to derail for 40 years--yet it still survives. The one who help found the City went on to serve on the Planning Commission, become a City Council Member, become mayor, and County Supervisor. Barth, Shaffer, Kranz and Marco have all kissed her ass to get her support at different times because while she holds no office now, she still holds status and influence. One helped to define and protect those features treasured by residents, and the other landed here leaving behind a trail of unpaid traffic tickets with big plans of becoming an Encinitas homeowner while calling actual Encinitas homeowners racists. Her plans for getting a house seem tied to supporting our developer-friendly mayor and market-rate, high density builders themselves. In my mind, there is no comparison. One has acted in the interests of residents for 40 years and continues to do so because she still cares about the beautiful city she helped to create and the other want to be a homeowner and has told residents that her vision is the future of Encinitas and to move out and make way for her. It is really an obvious contrast.
DeleteThank you, 8:15. Mic drop.
DeleteAgain, no one is debating the fact the she has tons of experience and knowledge. The subject, at least for me, is treatment of others and hypocrisy. It's possible to respect someone for certain things and not others, right? I don't respect the fact that the people being discussed here complain constantly about how Mali is so incredibly horrible and mean online, when they are at least as unpleasant and many times much worse. I guess what you're saying is that PSP has earned the right to attack and belittle Encinitas residents over Encinitas concerns, and I don't agree.
DeleteOne person continues to fight as an unpaid volunteer at this point for the city that she helped found and the residents who she represented with distinction for many years. The other is tapping into different city resources including grant funds and taxpayer dollars that the Mayor provides to her in exchange for attacking those who are critical of the current council's performance. If Mali is investigating a problem, she should not be benefitting financial from her community service or from any personal services she might be providing Blakespear.
DeleteI read Mali's victim piece on coast news and agree, people should support recovery and mental haalth programs.
DeleteI also feel Mali should own her comments about old school encinitas being Racist. Comments like that are damaging, inaccurate and hateful.
Mali as a part of your recovery, I suggest you pen an apology to Encinitas for stirring up so much hate in our wonderful community.
If you "volunteer your time" and no one asked you for it, is it really volunteering? That sounds more like a hobby. As in, I live in Del Mar, but my hobby is fucking with Encinitas politics.
DeleteSo I read mali's victim cry and agree people should be supportive of recovery and getting help for mental illness.
ReplyDeleteWhat Mali left out of her piece is you have to own your comments. She left out that she came to this town a few years ago because it was a nice fairly mellow highly inclusive beach town. When Gardner was murdered in the high of the pandemic fever, Mali struck. "All you white long time residence are Privileged Racists. That right- by living here you are all way more prejudice and RACIST than I. Plus, I, Mali, have a bit of pigment in my skin so I am a shade or two darker then most of you Racist Honkeys. You fucking RACISTS if you don't like what I'm saying, pack up and move to AZ.
Well Mali, I do not agree. I have never supported racism and I live to be inclusive with every action. I think I should say and you should go. Go get some help. You need it.
- my skin shade is darker than Mali (It should not be about color or ethnic background).
EU- Geez - Getting heavy on the Censorship. Chill out a bit. Whats your rules or SOP for not having posts removed?
ReplyDeleteSounds like some of our local developers who live in Orange County, Coronado, Carlsbad and Rancho Santa Fe. These are the people who Mali supports because they all are working for personal gain at the expense of people already living here. Money is a huge incentive for developers--not so for PSP.
ReplyDeleteSome like 4:46 can't handle the truth. 4:46 would much rather be left alone to have his way with Encinitas while the sheeple stay uninformed, do I have that right? Sounds like it.
ReplyDeleteGoodson better get used to sleeping with one eye open...
ReplyDeleteHe contacted the leftist AG Bonta about his Olivenhain ruining ghetto apartments. Well, I just had a chat with Bonta and informed him of the truth...not the goodson truth. One eye open goodson...one eye open.
I appreciate PSP trying to save Encinitas from becoming yet another crappy LA beach dump.
ReplyDeleteIt made me think that Encinitas should disincorporate and get annexed into Rancho Sante Fe town council. Developers typically do not shit where they sleep and if they do they have bigger dogs to deal with. And they can pay off the Governor in perpetuity so they never have to worry about the CCC. $$$ talks, BS walks.
