The San Diego County District Attorney’s Office has declined to bring criminal charges against former Encinitas mayoral candidate Jeff Morris in connection with a slew of anonymous threats made on a local blog.This blog cooperated with the Sheriff's Department in trying to identify the IP address of the abusive comments, but we didn't have the log files going back far enough in time. That information surely still resides with Blogger owner Alphabet (Google) should anyone wish to subpoena them.
Since then, a local woman who claims she has been the target of much of the online abuse has filed a civil defamation lawsuit against Morris, his wife, and other parties related to their alleged online conduct.
In May, the Sheriff’s Department confirmed it was investigating threatening language posted anonymously on the Blogger forum Encinitas Undercover, with the matter eventually being passed on to the District Attorney’s Office.

We’ll, this will put the Uncensored panties in a bind!
ReplyDeleteIf it were that easy, then EU could have done this. It doesn't matter because the DA will do nothing. Plenty if people turned over screenshots from Watchdog and other places and sent them to the DA. Nothing happened and nothing will. Too many people are accomplices to Morris and his followers. And now EU has been taken over by Morris and his fan club. This was once a blog where people could talk about things happening in this city. Now it's just like reading the National Enquirer. And why was my post on Fred taken down? Makes me wonder if Wc even runs this blog anymore.
ReplyDelete12:07- You read my mind. I have no idea what happened to Wc, but it is clear he or she has deserted us and gone surfing, or has gone over to the "dark side". Of course those IP addresses could be found. And why is this just coming out now? It's sad that a blog started many years ago by J.P. St Pierre has turned into a MAGA sight. I think it is time to start another blog and let the MAGA's have it. We all know Jerome is the only one who calls Lorri, Larri, so it is interesting that the person who called him on it got the post taken down. So Wc, are you now or have you always been Morris's friend? And you just can't get those IP addresses? I call B.S. on that but will let the DA know they can subpoena them. Not that the DA will. It will take Morris actually killing someone for anything to happen. That's how sick all of this is. And a lot came from this blog.
DeleteSTFU- tard. Stay inside winter is coming. Continue to wear your mask you look better.
DeleteI think the issue is, nothing technically has been done illegally on here. People insulting others, name calling, etc isn’t illegal.
ReplyDeleteYou make think Morris was making illegal threats, but it could all be chalked up to interpretation, what he said he meant is ultimately what counts.
Get over it people, quit whining like little spoiled children and being so emotional. Focus on what needs to be done in this town here and now. Jeff & Kim Morris, Donald Trump, Lorri Greene, Susan Turney should be the least of your worries.
Tony Kranz, Kellie Shay Hinze, Joy Lyndes, Bruce Ehlers and our City Manager and assistant City Manager should be your focus.
3:35- You are right. While some of the people are screaming about people who cannot make a real difference, the Council, City Manager and City Attorney are the ones we should focus on. If we're not careful, Tony will once again put the screws to us, especially Leucadia. Isn't there 5 council members? Who is the 5th. Was that person also appointed. At least with the Fletcher case, the citizens in that district get to vote on who they want to replace him. So far, we have never had that chance. I know I would live to change that.
DeleteOnce again? Foxpoint, Piraeus, Sunshine Gardens, Clark, the Encinitas Blvd project, the Baldwin project. Now Quail Gardens.
DeleteWe’re already hosed and you can bet Tony will get re-elected too. Just like his predecessor. Because people like Julie and Garvin will make sure of it.
8:00 who cares about Julie and Garvin, whatever you think the did is in the past it has no bearing on the future. Get over it and stop whining like a child.
DeleteLet’s focus on the here and now, our current council should be the topic of discussion.
When you start whining about Thunder, Garvin, Morris, you only make our Dem party look like a bunch of emotional, irrational and unprofessional children. It’s embarrassing!
3:35: Spot On
Deletehere is the developer and homeless industry bought off stooge we know:
ReplyDelete* During the latest housing element update, Kranz voted to eliminated the city owned lot on Quail Gardens and slammed much of the high density development in Leucadia. All of the ones in Leucadia are quickly rubber stamped by Kranz and are going to greatly increase traffic and crowds at local streets and beaches and make things unsafe around Leucadia due to the City’s lack of adequate infrastructure to the support the masses.
https://www.encinitasadvocate.com/news/story/2022-09-15/encinitas-council-overturns-planning-commissions-denial-of-apartment-project
https://www.nowleucadia.org/allprojects
* Kranz supports a homeless shelter in Encinitas. Knowing his past track record, can guess the proposed location? Right next to your house. “Mr. Kranz affirmed this summer when asked that he supports establishing a homeless shelter in Encinitas. After an overnight in a shelter, where will the homeless spend their time in the day?” https://thecoastnews.com/commentary-homeless-solutions-in-encinitas-lack-transparency/
Jeff's focus was homeless people. Are you seeing more or less homeless people loitering around town? I personally am seeing less. Even the homeless car lot is half empty these days.
ReplyDeleteI’m seeing a ton more. Sketchier than shit too…. A ton of crackheads.
DeleteThat’s what happens when Kranz invites the whole world homeless to Encinitas and San Diego shut theirs down because it doesn’t work to have everybody living on the street begging all the time.
Here’s a concept- start going to work and quit doing drugs. 3/4 of your problem solved.
Jeff focused on the homeless. Period. Didn’t help them, advocate for them, bring forth any solutions, including reducing their numbers, or keeping residents safe.
DeleteThe homeless were just another tool for Jeff to use. In fact, he exploited them.
Jeff was/is an asshole to homeless people. Hopefully he's too caught up in the latest dramas he's created to be focusing on that much.
DeleteIMO, Jeff probably beat his wife and got away with it. The fact that she refused to show up and clear his name under oath speaks loud and clear.
ReplyDeleteHis speech on this blog and other places would be difficult to press charges on. Our criminal courts give wide latitude for speech, as they should. DAs have limited resources and have to prioritize where those resources are best deployed. But there can be no doubt that Jeff violated the Terms of Service on both Google and Facebook, and he should be banned for life from both platforms.
His name is stained forever—not just in Encinitas. He may not be held accountable by courts or social media. But the court of public opinion has already ruled, and the verdict is guilty. The sentence is life without the possibility of reputation redemption.

DeleteWhy did the attorney say they moved out of town in the CN article? That's absolute bullshit
ReplyDeleteWasn't he hiding out in other states to avoid being served with something?
DeleteThey "moved out of state" to dodge testifying and moved back right after. The lawyer is a lying snake just like his client.
DeleteI’m a Democrat, have been since Regan.
ReplyDeleteBut the only people on here acting irrational, refusing to focus on current issues regarding our council, housing, roads, SB’s etc are the Democrats. The entire focus on here seems to be Morris, Thunder, Stocks. Who the fuck cares. What can whining and complaining about people in the past do for us in the future.
Why is it that most all of the personal attacks and complaining is coming from the Democrats? It’s embarrassing and makes our party look week!
Grow up, get organized and focus on current issues that are effecting the residents. Morris, Thunder, Garvin have absolutely zero influence on any current issues, so why waste the time?
Again it only makes the party look bad.
It's the second time you posted this, do you think those influences are not a continuing concern? If so, what makes you think they've dried up and blown away?
Delete8:46. Exactly. Look how those three impacted the last election. Does 8:43 think it can’t/won’t happen again?
DeleteMorris,Thunder and their not-so-merry band of mental midgets are only good at losing. Either they lose themselves or whoever they endorse loses. I think the dems call them useful idiots.
Delete8:46, 8:54, 9:06 you are the same person.
DeleteAll you’re doing is distracting from the real issues.
The issues that matter most to us. Stock, Bond, Greene, Turney, Morris, Cremona aren’t the issues, that’s all in the past.
Being a Democrat is fine...just don't become a leftist as that is the enemy of the U.S When people become these woke idiots it places a whole new meaning for things and that, is not in a good way.
DeleteI hate politics.
8:46, 8:54, 9:06 you are the same person.
ReplyDeleteAll you’re doing is distracting from the real issues. The issues that matter most to us. Stock, Bond, Greene, Turney, Morris, Cremona are the the issues, that’s all in the past.
They are the issues? Thought Kranz was, my bad.
Delete9:31 Darn IPhone!
DeleteI meant to say Stocks, Greene, Bond, Cremona, Morris AREN’T the issues. Kranz, Hinze, Lyndes, Ehlers and our City Managers are what we should be focusing on.
9:20 💯 ^
ReplyDelete9:20 my guess would be it’s 1 or 2 people that are constantly bringing up Morris, Lorri, Cremona, Turney, Stocks. It’s very obvious it’s a distraction as there are much much larger issues to be addressed, you know the ones that are in the hear and now. I think everyone on here can see through the distractions they use including their “plane guy” distraction.
ReplyDeleteThe people distracting us from the current ongoing issues that matter most, you know the select few who incessantly post about
ReplyDeleteMorris, Thunder, Stocks, and Bonds.
These people were posting the same boring, lame and nonsensical comments yesterday during Fred Caldwells tribute.
Extremely disrespectful and self serving on your part. You now discredit everything you say as it’s quite evident how little respect you have for a local Leucadia legend.
It’s because they have no clue who he was now you know who the offending posters were….
DeleteDon't forget the Goodson project. The minute Blakespear called Randy Goodson by his first name I knew we were screwed. There were plenty of ways around this project, but Blakespear wanted to kiss Newsome and Atkins ass and so she sold us out. Kranz is too stupid to even know it. He could have stopped the project as well. So let's forget about all of the folks keep screwing about. They have no say in the housing issue, except the Council who won't fight back on anything.
ReplyDelete11:02 thank you for adding some good dialogue to the blog again. It’s so boring to hear about Morris, Lorri and Cremona everyday.
DeleteI’m sure Blakespear is selling us out as we speak in Sacramento. I spoke out against Goodson at a council meeting last year, it was as if I wasn’t even there. Council never really even looked at me. Sad!
I hope more of us will begin speaking out.
Make no mistake, Blakespear is still working behind the scenes and “advising” Kranz and Co. on what must be done.
Delete11:19 I’ll bet you’re right!
DeleteVote NO on Blakespear and Kranz!
YES on Ehlers!!
Blakespear abandoned whatever tiny bit of care she had for Encinitas the moment she became a state senator. She's not "advising" anything because she simply doesn't give a crap about us, only how she is going to climb the next rung.
DeleteAnother stupid post from the old man who lives with his mom and has nothing to do but troll social media all day. So tell us, Steve Golden, what are some of the plenty ways the city could have stopped the project?
DeleteGolden? Hide yo kids!
DeleteThe city could have avoided state housing law by the same methods that we avoid all consequences of climate change.
DeleteMotivated denialism.
If we don’t like the compromises and implications of a concept, we simply deny that it exists.
It’s stupid, sure. But it’s all they’ve got.
goodson is simply the front to another person. goodson works for another. "the other" is the money and goodson? Just a hack. You see the threats of lawsuits from the leftists in sacramento allowed Encinintas to be inundated with ghetto housing. These brain dead idiots like newsom and bonta think by housing low income people near others, will give them incentive to be more productive. Ya' right.
DeleteEverything the left does, "they destroy"
Nobody cares about a lawsuit threat unless it’s likely to win.
DeleteAnd when your town is blatantly not following the law, a lawsuit threat should be taken seriously.
She already sold us out.
ReplyDeleteEhlers is the only council/mayor person who was not originally appointed.
Hmmmmm
Can we drop the Morris droning on and on? It's all so tiresome.
He definitely would have been a wrecking ball but so unprincipled and unhinged his wrecking ball would have created too much drama all things considered.
We do need a wrecking ball with current regime who act like they are principled but their principals are like rotten mushy 7 day old oatmeal
Had several friends encourage me to vote for Morris after I decided against doing so. Make no mistake the citizens are not happy with all the lying bullshit. Problem is the progressive crazies are so entrenched we just may need to accept becoming SF/LA with crime and homeless people camping in your driveway. Karma's a bitch
You want to drop the "droning" only after you excuse your choice of candidate.
DeleteTony wasn't appointed. Susan ran against Kellie and got curb stomped. Joy beat Julie last election because only Trumpers like her. Bruce votes with the woke majority 100% of the time. This is what Encinitas is and who we are, not whatever bullshit you seem to think it should be.
DeleteCan't be much more uninformed than 1:30. Kranz was as good as appointed when he rode in on other candidates coattails more than a decade ago. Quick, 1:30: name them. Betcha can't.
DeleteSounds like 1:30 is a rational thinking Encinitas citizen who knows what they're talking about.
DeleteHow so? Bruce voting with the majority 100% of the time. Liar.
DeleteCan't 1:30 answer for himself? Sure sounds like an "Encinitas Resident" not citizen.
DeleteTony was definitely appointed by the BIA. They gave him a lot of perks to run and even gave him a trip or two. If Morris and Cremona had not run, and someone halfway decent had run instead Kranz would have lost. He lost his first time running.
DeleteAnd if your mother hadn't been drinking while pregnant you could have made something of yourself. What other lies you got?
DeleteWhat was your friend's argument for voting for Morris? That he was going to shake everything up unpredictably and that was a good thing?
DeleteI swear to god you pinheads really need to learn to read.
ReplyDelete4th grade level reading around here.
Did not vote for Morris 12:57 douche canoe.
Current Mayor originally appointed at one time in the past, no?
I am sorry you all are watching too many 18 second instaSCam videos. Maybe sit down and read an entire book tonight instead of watching worthless television or instagram feeds?
Adulting is hard I know
Sure led us to believe you had. Do continue name calling, it changes ever so many minds.
DeleteTell me you don't live here and only got involved with Encinitas politics 10 minutes ago without telling me.
DeleteMy name is David Gordon. I live in La Jolla. I own private planes that fly over your kids schools, Scripps Hospital, tens of thousands of people and their homes. I fly 18 miles from Montgomery Field to do this over and over and over. Today I did it 18 times over Encinitas. Do you think I care? NOPE. Screw you.
ReplyDeleteThank you Starving…. Better adjust, your tuck is unfolding and your Girl,the dunce, does not like untuck girlfriends.
DeleteFlex Air out of Montgomery Field flew back and forth today 28 times over schools, Scripps Hospital, 10's of thousands and their homes. The FAA has been contacted as well as Flex Air home office in Kansas.
DeletePut our families at risk flying back and forth over and over...let's just see how that works out.
Next call is to Homeland Security, you don't know who is in those planes. They fly 18 miles from Montgomery Field to place families in danger.
Sure Starvin. Bring the Vaseline…. 🤢
Delete8:05..I'm not sure what you accomplished by writing odd things to my reports of dangerous aircraft flying over Encinitas. But, if it makes you feel better to mimic your mothers' thoughts then please...write more. We are curious as to her thinking. Or why you come out.
DeleteNo, we are not. Speak for yourself.
DeleteOnce I heard our Mayor almost generated an original thought.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you estimate the percentage of con men in this room?
ReplyDelete50%
65%
80?
I'm pretty certain it's at least 68%
Maybe the Morrises moved, maybe they didn't.
ReplyDeleteIt is fact that people are leaving California. It is fact the population of Encinitas has decreased over the past few years. Yet, the powers that be refuse to discuss making changing to the hideous RHNA requirements.
The state has continuously over estimated the need for housing. The state continues to up the pressure on cities to comply.
You know why the council is silent? They are afraid of losing precious stated grant funds. The funds that allow our city to be profligate in spending on BS like smoking bans, catalytic convertor laws, bike traps, and studies, lot's of studies.
The state is the narco dealer, and we are the addict.
Thank you Speedbump. You are spot on.
Deletenewsom and bonta are so crooked they could hide behind a horseshoe.
oooops, i meant a corkscrew
DeleteFlex Air out of Montgomery Field. Yesterday 28 times over Encinitas and Solana Beach. This morning 23 times back and forth over Encinitas. The phone number they provide is going to some place on earth but not here, can't understand them. They don't have an office, they dangerously fly over 100,000 residents, schools, Scripps Hospital and you.
ReplyDeleteThey do not respond to emails or phone calls. They couldn't care less. I just informed the FAA and Montgomery Field.
You residents better wake up before your families get killed from a plane crash. They go down all the time across America. Here is the phone number for the FAA. Call it, wait for the message to finish (they never pick up) and press 4.
Remember, it's Flex Air and they "don't care"
FAA 858-502-9882, wait then press 4.
If you press 1 it is about noise and you'll get "no where"
The tail number "this time" is N98492. Flex Air.
Their motto? "we don't care at Flex Air"
Whatever Starvin’. Sick of your shit. go play with your girlfriend you Sicko.
DeletePlane kook is Michael Baskette.
DeleteHe was making threats a few months ago and I called it in. They knew exactly who he was.
Feds have him on a short leash.
For some reason he stopped making threats.
This is plane guy. My ex-wife used to call me plain guy...
Deleteclose enough. 5:12..hey pinhead I'm not on any leash Fed or otherwise. I state the facts, I file complaints and guess what....I AM ALWAYS CORRECT.
Be it Sheriff's Department, SDPD, Homeland Security and the FAA. Now, let's write about you. Why do you support unsafe flying over Encinitas with private planes flying back and forth. You either don't live here or you are one of the airplane geeks that like putting our kids in danger while poisoning the air with leaded exhaust.
Which is it, perhaps both?...hmmmm?
5:12..can you tell everyone what the threats were?
DeleteAnd if true, was plane guy arrested? Booked and jailed?
Come on, inform us all of the crime/s
Why did you stop talking about the heavily armed former navy seals that support your cause and would eventually pay a visit to flying schools?
DeleteSit down grandpa. Time for a nap. You know you get cranky when it’s nap time.
Hey moron...It's called satire. And, I don't know any Seals. It's made up...gawd you are a dope.
DeleteAnd yet, they immediately knew your name.
DeleteWhere in these writings did this person know his name.
Delete7:07 you seem a slow. Are you and biden with the same affliction?
5:12
DeleteI found out the buffoon 7:58 doesn't live in Encinitas.
DeleteWhatever Starvin’. Sick of your shit. go play with your girlfriend you Sicko.
ReplyDeleteYou seem to be very angry. Were you dumped by your boyfriend? And please inform us all who starvin' is.
Delete@535, who do you think? Here's a hint, it rhymes with Fig Snails
DeleteEU sure seems lonely since Marco got a clue and stopped debating with Willow and Reuben. Now it's just a circle jerk with those two and Stevie the Golden momma's boy. Hope they STFU soon.
ReplyDeleteMarcos is busy running the Del Mar FB page as an Encinitas resident while Del Mar resident PSP uses the Encinitas page as her personal fed. Pimping for social media likes ain’t easy.
DeleteRemember when that Guy That Used To Surf Swami's thought the only ones that hated him in town were a handful of women and therefore it could only be of these select ladies responsible every time someone talked shit about him on here? What an idiot!
ReplyDeleteBhavani agrees with him.
DeleteIs she the one that does the Vegan BBQanon events?
DeleteShe’s the conspiracy theorist.
DeleteThank you for the clarification 8:01, I always get the Self Realization Center Enthusiast confused with another exceptional individual by the name of Tammurah. If you recall, Tammurah was a HUGE fan of The Guy That Used To Surf Swamis. In fact, I believe she holds the world record for most political signs in a yard ever.
Delete9:21 wins the blog today.
ReplyDeleteBest and most excellent course of action= close comments immediately
🥳🤓🤟🏄♂️😃
7:22am If only.....
ReplyDeleteLorri are the EV gang are mouthing off about CN. Is she pissed that they didn't accept her edits to the Morris article? CN apology incoming in 5..4..3..
ReplyDeleteShe and the sourpuss gang get their panties in a wad whenever there's a story that doesn't reflect their twisted and bitter mental state. They hate the hotel like they hate everything new and successful. Whether it's young and dynamic politicos, new construction or even kids and families riding bikes. They hate this hotel in particular because in their mind it's connected to Blakespear. That and it's a reminder that their remaining days are numbered. Also, most of them can't afford it with their winning lottery ticket tied up in home appreciation.
DeleteIt’s the last thing.
DeleteThey can’t afford it. I can’t either, but that’s not a reason to deny or hate on a project.
Only narcissists make a decision on a building permit about themselves.
It’s as stupid as the argument against affordable housing because people with less means might be able to live here.
The obvious conclusion is that people with less are undesirable and people with more are undesirable. They want Encinitas to be a homogeneous population of people who look, act, and earn exactly as they do.
What a fucking bore.
I want my kids to grow up knowing that there are people different from them, with different challenges and privileges, but to understand that everyone has challenges and privileges —including them.
Homogeneous sameness sucks. I support the hotel, and the apartments, within reason. And a few parcels here and there is not going to fundamentally change anything.
4:41- Have you paid attention to what is going on in this City. I don't care if you like the Hotel or not, but when you says a few parcels her and that is not going to change anything, you blew my mind. There 3 HUGE projects going on around Leucadia and Olivenhain; every bit of space is almost gone because the BIA owns this City. Who cares about the hotel, I am more concerned about having some open space left for my kids. Don't believe me check out the CIty's website for all the "few parcels" you speak of. Get a clue.
Delete5:32 you forgot to tell 4:41 that the 15-20% of all these projects designated as affordable really aren’t and will now require the liars who promised they would be 100% affordable to ruin more neighborhoods with limited parking, excessive traffic, dangerous intersections, not enough school capacity for the additional children, etc., while they take even more open space, destroying wildlife corridors and neighborhoods as they approve five and six story mega market rate developments in beautiful residential neighborhoods. Maybe the next one will be in his/her neighborhood.
DeleteRiddle me this. What is the source of water seepage from the cliffs directly in front of the hotel? Certainly not from their miniscule plantings. Now when the Marea Village goes in and takes down 45% of the existing height above sea level, should we believe experts that says "this is nothing to even think about"?
Delete4:41 Yo, woke up. It's already changed permanently. Go downtown next Sunday, check out the weekend party refuse. It's gross. The shop owners don't even care. Peeps I talk with call it the LAfication of Encinitas. Want nice schools for the kiddos? I think what you wrote says "I want tokens for my kids to observe safely". Yeppers, break the homogeneity by making large apartment complexes.
As 3:51 said, of course it's about Blakespear. Susan Turney was sure to explicitly connect those dots and remind everyone how thoroughly warped her mind is. She adds to that a lie about pushing dirt into the ocean and voila you have the usual bullshit conspiracies those dullards are known for. How are these supposedly smart people continually so stupid.
Delete8:26 the hotel did push dirt into the water, it’s all on video and I was one of several hundred residents who watched it happen. The fact that you are purposely lying to defend a developer says everything about you and the party (Kranz, Blakespear) that you support.
Delete8:26 there’s video of the dump trucks dumping dirt into the water, heck there’s even a newspaper article about it.
DeleteGo to June 13th on EV and you’ll see a post with a video that says,
“ Construction site for new hotel in Encinitas, called Alla Marea Resort. I talked to workers. They say all of the dirt, sand and whatever debris is put into the bulldozers goes directly into the ocean. This was taken Feb. 19, 2019 at the Hotel project on 101 near Ponto. Here’s a video.”
Well done Lorri! You've highlighted yet another example of why you and EV have zero credibility. The video shows no dumping of dirt in the ocean and you're a buffoon for claiming it does. Perhaps have it explained to you by someone with functioning vision and an understanding of perspective that most people learn as children. This is all more completely made up bullshit from the primary source of lies and idiocy for Encinitas.
Delete8:46 nice try list, the dump trucks are carrying load of dirt are going down the hill to the beach. Why do you think the lifeguards and residents were raising objections about the water quality in front of the hotel during construction.
DeleteBoy someone really wants to protect that monstrosity of a hotel on our bluff. They’ve spent countless hours defending it. Hmm who could have that much interest. Marco Gonzalez, Coast Law Group? Me thinks so!
DeleteMaybe 4:41 maybe your kids can learn to speak marble mouth. That way they can communicate with all types. 4:41, you are an idiot with nothing. Must be a leftist as that is usually how it works. Their life is nothing so they want everyone to have nothing.
DeleteI didn't comment above on the hotel. I always use my name on here. For the record, the sand replenishment from grading spoils that took place was a condition placed on the original Coastal Development Permit. It's a benefit to the beaches to put it there rather than haul it away. Also FTR, the hotel was approved back when Pam Slater was on the council. Blakespear had nothing to do with it.
DeleteMarco you’re always so full of shit.
DeleteAnd to idiot who called BS on the dirt being dumped into the ocean, looks like Marco the developers puppet just confirmed it.
Janet Harmon and Karen Gruenbergerstein Abrams are throwing a fit on EV, defending the Alila Marea hotel from all the locals. Comments include, “Rooms only start at $800 a night” and “it’s a shining example of affordability, sustainability and being eco friendly!”
ReplyDeleteTony Kranz seems to love Harmon and Abrams comments defending the hotel.
Eco friendly, affordable, LOL!
Thanks for blocking the public’s views, contributing to bluff collapse and turning Encinitas into LA. Nice job Kranz, Blakespear and council, way to sell out our town. Not a single speaker on the podium was for this project and you ignored everyone.
Go check out the plastic sheeting on the cliff, been there for over 6 months. so eco...
Delete6:30, 6:51 exactly! “Plastic sheeting on the cliffs” very eco friendly. Thanks Tony Kranz and Catherine Blakespear.
DeleteThanks for supporting these people Karen Abrams, Janet Harmon, Amanda Zenick, Marlon Taylor, John Gjata and Lou Caldia.
You must be one of regular EV mental defectives to read that post and come away with those two being the ones throwing a fit. Then again, it's well known this blog is 98% those same EV mental defectives. There's so much stupid and crazy in this town and they all collect in one place, like a sewer.
Delete8:02 must be Karen Abrams or Janet Harmon. Love watching you two defend all the trash that ends up on the beach from the guests at that hotel. Quit virtue signaling about how much you care for our environment, when the guests at that hotel are polluting the fuck out of our beach and bluff with all their party trash.
Delete4:41...move to Logan Heights in San Diego. That way you can raise your kids until they are killed by the locals. Many of us worked our asses off or went to institutions of higher learning to be where we are. The reason you support the apartment leftist garbage is because you have nothing.
ReplyDeleteYou are a one of those. You don't even live in Encinitas as no one with any sense or investment in land would write such stupidity.
4:41 is Marco Gonzalez, same wording and type of argumentative strategy he always uses. Insult the credibility of the commenter with an insult, “narcissist, NIMBY, racist, Trumper, conspiracy theory”, then sugar coat with how important this is for the kids, homeless, low income, etc.
ReplyDeleteIf you think Marco only posts on here when he uses his name, then you’re mistaken.
👆👍
DeleteIt's a well stated argument so it must be Marco? No wonder he pisses you clowns off so much. I think he's a jerk but I've never seen any evidence that he lies. His critics on the other hand have been caught red handed lying over and over and over.
Delete8:04 you’ve never seen him lie, LOL. Obviously it’s Marco defending Marco, because this entire city thinks you’re a turd.
DeleteAll Marco does is lie, just like his sister, Lorena Gonzalez and brother the sexual predator Nathan Fletcher Gonzalez.
Your sister was caught lying about the data on AB5, she cheated with Nathan when he was married, and now she’s lying about the sexual harassment case. She probably lied about her and Nathan’s house when it caught on fire, blaming it on arson. She’s a dirt bag.
Your brother is dirt bag also. The veterans have asked that he remove himself from their organization, calling his PTSD bullshit. Your brother claims he was abused and has PTSD and that why he cheated on your sister. He claims that all the other sexual harassment complaints from other women is false, and now he’s being accused of firing that poor girl from MTSD because she didn’t keep her mouth shut.
Your entire family is full of dirtbags Marco, but we’re suppose to believe you, an attorney for the developers never lies. LOL!
That's a lot of words that contain no evidence of Marco lying. I'll give you another try, go ahead and be specific.
Delete8:04 is 💯 Marco! No one in this town defends Marco.
DeleteDon’t you just love how he throws in “I think he’s a jerk” to get you to believe that his statement is coming from someone else.
Marco, we already know you’re a jerk, the entire town knows you’re a jerk, your clients know you’re a jerk it’s why they hire you. Hell even you know you’re a jerk, and you love it, because you’re a narcissist.
Coast Law Group is full of jerks. It’s probably a qualifier on the job application. It’s people like Marco that turn a beautiful town into LA. Thanks fuckwad!
8:24 Marco, by acting as another person while defending yourself in this thread would be considered deceptive or lying.
DeleteYou not attacking your brother, Nathan Fletche, publicly for sexual harassment, like you publicly did Filner for sexual harassment years ago, would be considered deceptive.
You lying to us about the non existent eco impact Alila Marea has had on our coastline, would be considered a lie when we all see the trash from guests on the beach every weekend. Or how about the 60’ plastic sheet covering the bluff in front of the hotel, would that be considered eco-friendly?
How about the fact that you refer to yourself as an environmental lawyer when convenient and then you work as an attorney for the developers? I’d consider that being deceptive and lying about your greater intentions.
Every time you argue with someone you start out with a lie. You attack them personally, often making up insulting comments that aren’t true about that person. I’d consider that lying as well.
8:24 how about the fact that you never told us you were the Admin for Del Mar Votes? Or hiding your info and not allowing certain posts to be shown that didn’t fit your agenda? Like PSP’s post that you two argued about. Wouldn’t that be considered being dishonest, Marco?
Delete8:24 Marco, you lied about John from Swami’s being a racist, as you stated in a post. What proof do you have that he’s a racist? Let’s see it!
DeleteI’d consider that a lie! Yes, you’re a liar.
Not Marco, don't know him, never met him and still haven't heard any evidence that he's a liar.
Delete9:47 sure Marco, keep telling lying!
DeleteI provided you with plenty of evidence of lying above. It’s actually quite amusing watching you slither around it.
9:47 is Marco Gonzalez! Yea we’re really supposed to believe that a lawyer for the developers doesn’t lie.
DeleteHow do you know when Marco or is sister Lorena Gonzalez are lying? Their lips re moving!
9:47 Marco why are trying to tell us you never lie. You’re an attorney for stack and pack developers, and at the same time you tell everyone that you’re an environmentalist.
DeleteIsn’t that what you call an oxymoron? Destroy our precious coastline by building hotels all in the name of environmentalism! LOL 😂
Still waiting on evidence of Marco being a liar. For as much as y'all complain I thought there would be hundreds of half assed examples and you haven't produced a single one.
DeleteNice try 8:46! Plenty of examples all above of Marco lying. Is it a coincidence that your time stamps are roughly the same as the poster defending Hilton’s Alila Marea Hotel? Must be Marco.
DeleteHey Marco, so any comments on your sister’s fake data for AB5 being investigated or your sexual assaulting brother’s ongoing case?
Yea, attorney for developers claiming their environmentalist never lie 😂
Keep trying to tell us you’re not full of shit Marco!
Plenty of examples! We just can't name a single one! Instead here's more whining about his sister and brother in law. No wonder he keeps beating you at everything.😁
DeleteWow, Marco pissed someone off in the past 24-48 hours.
DeleteThey've been red faced mad at Marco for years because they can't compete. You can tell when Lorri is particularly upset about getting wrecked because she goes into full complaining Karen mode. Hotel bad! Blakespear bad! Signs bad! Mali bad! Coast News bad! Council bad! Bikes bad! Marco bad! It's long overdue for some of these crotchety relics to be put in a home.
Delete11:54 actually it’s the Liberals that have been complaining about CN and their unfair treatment of Blakespear.
DeleteObviously someone hit a nerve with Marco, no one in their right mind would defend that guy.
Marco’s entire family is the center of controversy! From sexual harassment, assault, extortion to fudging numbers on AB 5. And if you think an attorney who works for the developers and at the same time claims to be an environmentalist isn’t full of shit, well then you’re an idiot and a sucker.
All the more reason the comments supporting Marco are coming from Marco. No one is that stupid to think he doesn’t lie. Plenty of examples listed on Facebook, the media and I’ve named several above.
I mean taking the time out of their day to post over and over about someone else level angry. I understand he gets a lot of shit here, but this is a bigger than usual pile on.
DeleteWhat a bunch of idiots. I'll continue to post under my name, and challenge all of you to do the same. I've got nothing to hide. How about all of you keyboard warriors?
DeleteBullshit Marco, you’re as crooked as a question mark, we all know that.
DeleteOne question Marco continues to avoid is, why haven’t you spoken out about your brother in law, Nathan’s, sexual assault and harassment dealings.
You sure can lay it on about Filner and the Swami’s guy, but not Nathan!
There's litigation ongoing. That will answer all of the necessary questions. I along with others encouraged Nathan to resign in light of the allegation, but until the lawsuit concludes, I don't have anything more to say about it.
DeleteChris Kydd is on EV, he thinks we should all give the Alila Marea a try before we judge. His suggestion is, go visit and spend some time there. Oh ok Chris, let’s all just plop down $800+ per night and check it out before we judge! LOL, is that guy for real? Go do another line of coke Chris!
ReplyDelete7:56- Let's all go to the Hotel and ask to get in for free so we can check it out. Isn't that what Kydd in implying?
Delete8:39 ask Kydd to get us all free rooms.
DeleteYou guys can all go to the stupid hotel! Buy a drink, have something to eat, and enjoy the sunset. It's not going anywhere, and I don't think anyone is expecting locals to sleep there. It looks more like corporate travel and events anyway, except for the restaurant/bar stuff.
DeleteI've enjoyed their happy hour a few times and didn't even have to "ask to get in for free".
DeleteHow were those $16 dollar drinks and $30 valet service? Yea let’s all go visit 😂
DeleteCan't you walk, fucking local?
Delete5:51 hey dip shit, some of us are a bit older and live more than a mile from the Alila Marea.
DeleteCorrection 6:10
Delete6:10 to the moron who thinks we should all just walk to Alila Marea.
DeleteWe have no interest in spending $30 on valet parking and $16-20 on each drink. The hotel looks like a Nazi bunker, has destroyed our public ocean view, and does nothing but rake in $$$ for the developers and pollutes the shit out of the beach out front with trash from elite wealthy party guests.
$800 minimum per night, great contribution to the community Kranz and Blakespear.
Valet doesn't cost $30. Do you think a beer costs $16-$20, and what view were you getting from that spot anyway? Did you climb up each evening and enjoy the view? How many others did? Bummer it was built, but it's here now. Blow it up if you don't like it (when it's empty).
Delete7:49 actually the parking at Alila Marea (Hilton Hotels) is $52 per day, drinks are $20+ and rooms are now $1,000+.
DeleteYes parking is $52 per day and drinks are $20+, unless of course you want a $14 beer. Here’s a link to the prices.
Deletehttps://www.alilahotels.com/marea-beach-resort-encinitas/dining/the-pocket/
Chris Kydd of Coast News is defending the hotel describing it as sustainable, eco-friendly and gift to the community.
DeleteHere was Susan Turney’s response:
“Christopher James Kydd when they showed zero regard for concerns of the neighboring community and pushed dirt, not sand, into the ocean and the result was a lot of dead sea life, they forfeited the opportunity to “embrace us locals.”
You need to have followed the project and its interactions with the community to understand why they are not welcomed with open arms and likely never will be.
And that’s aside from the developer’s large donations to a PAC that did all it could to demonize challengers to the Blakespear regime in the 2020 election.“
Susan Turney continues to talk out her ass, as usual. There was never any evidence of "a lot of dead sea life." The turbidity that resulted is natural for any sand replenishment project, and Turney obviously didn't review the technical reports addressing grain size and the rest of the permit compliance. And regarding the PAC I formed for the 2020 election, we did nothing for the 2022 election except endorse candidates (no expenditures) and all of them were successful. So STFU already.
DeleteGreat way of avoiding your PAC involvement. No shit you had nothing to do with the 2022 election. We’re referring to you inception of your 2020 PAC and the nearly $30K you and your developers donated to Blakespear in 2020, not 2022.
DeleteGod you’re a dishonest fuckwad!
There is plenty of (lack) of evidence that the sand/dirt removed is anywhere near the beach at this time.
DeleteSo eco
WHO IS IMPERSONATING MARCO!!! They must be stopped this instant!

7 San Diego: Restraining order filed against former Encinitas Swami's Cafe manager
ReplyDeleteDidn’t a certain mayoral candidate hang out campaigning in front of Swamis? With management’s blessings?
10:40 Yep. Jeff Morris's supporter.
Delete10:40 doesn’t mean John was a racist, as you stated. It just means he was sexually harassing his employees, just like your brother Nathan Fletcher Gonzalez!
Deletehttps://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/second-woman-accuses-nathan-fletcher-of-improper-behavior/3198968/?amp=1
Yep, I remember the day Swami's Cafe became the pseudo Jeff campaign headquarters as that was the same day I stopped going there and encouraged everyone to do the same. Still haven't gone back....wonder if the owner even knows?
DeleteAnd it certainly didn't help that The Guy That Used To Surf Swami's kept referring to the manager of that place as the owner.
Delete5:49 I don’t go there anymore either, but Marco claims in a post that John (the owner) is a racist. I’d still like to see that evidence, because you can’t just call everyone you dislike a racist. Just another Marco Gonzalez lie!
DeleteIf Marco publicly attacks Swami’s for sexual harassment, why doesn’t he attack his brother Nathan Fletcher Gonzalez for his sexual harassment?
Owner? No, John was a manager, put in place as a favor to the property owner (Don Hansen). Jaime, the owner, has now apparently seen the light regarding John's destructive ways. Good riddance. And yeah, he was a blatant, self-professed racist.
Delete2:14 Marco what proof do you have that he was a racist? None! I thought so. Because your a liar.
DeleteSo Marco publicly states that John from Swamis is a racist, where’s the evidence?
ReplyDeleteAnyone who went to the cafe during the Obama election and ensuing years saw the crap John would write on the menu board. Anyone trying to have a discussion with him about issues would quickly hear his racist bullshit come through. Who cares at this point? He's gone, and again. good riddance.
Delete2:16 let’s hear your examples of John’s racist remarks and racist remarks he wrote on the bored?
DeleteYou don’t have any and once again you’re speaking out of your ass and lying.
How about commenting on your racist, sexually assaulting brother in law and your POS sister Lorena who lied about the data on AB 5.
https://timesofsandiego.com/opinion/2023/03/28/it-turns-out-anti-gig-economy-law-ab-5-was-tarnished-by-backroom-dealing/
2:16 Marco, regarding your POS dishonest sister, Lorena Gonzalez. “The court cited Gonzalez’s own damning tweets, interviews, statements and a Washington Post op-ed, even suggesting that AB 5 is rooted in “corruption, pure spite, and naked favoritism.”
DeleteThe apple doesn’t fall far from tree, you’re a big turd just like your sister and her hubby Nathan Fletcher, a family rooted in corruption.
https://timesofsandiego.com/opinion/2023/03/28/it-turns-out-anti-gig-economy-law-ab-5-was-tarnished-by-backroom-dealing/
Here’s what Marco wrote-
ReplyDeleteWhen we first moved into our building across the street from Swami's Cafe, we were stoked to be close to them. Almost immediately we ran into John's racist, right wing, conspiracy theorist bullshit and boycotted the place. It is absolute no surprise to anyone that knew him or saw him interact with customers and employees that this happened. 'bout time...“
Sexual harasser? Yes
Racist? No evidence of this.
Conclusion: Yes, Marco lies!
The Swami's guys is not a good person. If this is a campaign to defend him, nice try.
Delete6:14 no one said the Swami’s manager, John isn’t in the wrong. He was charged with sexual harassing!
DeleteWhat we’re saying is, Marco will publicly criticize others of alleged sexual harassment but he won’t publicly criticize Nathan Fletcher Gonzalez for sexual harassment and assault.
Furthermore he stated that John was a “racist”, where is there documentation of him being a racist?
The point was to prove that Marco Gonzalez lies!
Marco is a hypocrite, he publicly attacks others for sexual harassment, but he won’t say anything about Nathan Fletcher Gonzales be charged with sexual harassing his former co-workers and having them fired for speaking out.

“Nathan Fletcher accuser alleges MTS offered her $10K to keep sexual assault allegations private.”
ReplyDeleteAnything you’d like to add, Marco? Since you’re so honest and never tell a lie 😂

Tony Kranz is pushing for his own Seagaze density 100 units per acre in Encinitas…. That’s what his vacation giving developers and BIA want him to do.
ReplyDeleteThe “realized density” on the Seagaze Drive project was 321.4 dwelling units per acre, according to a city staff report.
City officials said the project could not be denied because it included affordable housing — 12 apartments reserved for low-income occupants — which qualified the project for the state’s density bonus law. Oceanside requires all new residential development to include at least 10 percent affordable housing.
People living in the neighborhoods near the Seagaze site widely opposed the project, saying it was too crowded, too tall and had insufficient parking. Oceanside has approved a number of other mixed-use projects despite similar objections, with council members saying their hands are tied by state law.
https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/communities/north-county/oceanside/story/2023-07-26/new-density-cap-proposed-for-downtown-oceanside
We’re about to see Tony Our Hands Are Tied Kranz bend over for Baldwin’s 485 on QGD next.
ReplyDeleteMost useful four words he learned the entire time he's been on council.
DeleteCarla Hayes was spot on with her comment on EV.
ReplyDelete“Such a load of crap--they destabilized the bluffs and are trying to build more, which will destabilize the bluffs more, and the vibrations reverberate thru the entire system. Grandview is only 100 yards away from this photo op.”
This is in reference to Hilton’s Alila Marea!
DeleteIt's a Hyatt, but point taken. Huge corp bought its way into the city and now we're supposed to be lovin' on their eco ways - after they destroyed the environment. Remember when Blakespear leaned on the chamber to get the state of the city moved to the resort and Mali and E4E helped her host it? What a bunch of hypocrites.
DeleteThe EV crowd is conflating the issues. Fine to be pissed about the bluff damage and blocked views. But stop bitching about the prices. Of course locals aren't expected to book overnight rooms - who stays in a hotel in the same town where they live? And the drink/food prices are market rate, check anywhere in town. If you can't afford a beer or cocktail that costs more than $10, don't go out in Encinitas. Remember the people that are moving here and most who live here are buying $1M+ homes - we can afford a $17 cocktail.
DeletePlenty in the “EV crowd“ who don’t care about the prices and you know it. Easy misdirect though right?
DeleteThe folks on EV should focus on the building - not aesthetically pleasing (to them), blocks views, endangers bluffs. These issues would still be issues if parking were free and the menu and room prices were cheap. So whining about prices just comes off as...whining.
DeleteBitching and whining is all that some miserable people have left in their miserable lives. Everyone knows the EV motto is "misery loves company".
DeleteAnd your bitching and moaning pegs you as a WD refugee.
Delete11:33- They were until Chris Kydd suggested we go over there and make friends with them. That is what started the whole pricing thing. Since you can read EV why don't you read the whole thread?
DeleteKydd is scratching for advertising dollahs.
DeleteCarla's comment is false. The Alila Marea is not 100yds from Grandview. More like 630 yards. Facts matter.
DeleteMarco you want to pretend that was not dirt your client shoveled into the ocean? Because I'm pretty sure it was all documented including by Machado family members. Be careful now.
DeleteOh John! Jeff Morris’s buddy who acted as the owner, but was only the manager of one Swami’s location. That John the one who hosted a meet and greet for Jeff. Has anyone seen Jeff speak out about those allegations against John?
ReplyDeleteDidn’t know he actually hosted an M&G. Birds of a feather!
DeleteI think Encinitas should ban Range Rovers, Porsches and Ferraris because I can’t afford one. We should also prohibit ski trips and limit the construction of any house over 2500 sq ft, because I can’t afford those things. Also, no hotels that are out of my personal price range.
ReplyDeleteI demand a town where anything that I can’t personally afford is off limits to everyone.
Also, no apartments.
DeleteI choose to live in a 1700 sq ft single story, single family bungalow, so I demand that everyone else must also live in a single story, single family, 1600-1800 sq ft bungalow. And I don’t ride a bike, so I demand that all bike lanes be removed.
I demand that everyone be just like me, and make lifestyle, fashion, and aesthetic choices that are identical to mine.
I will perceive anything different as a personal attack on me and on Encinitas.
I demand that the government use the force of law to compel everyone to be like me.
Looking forward to a high density tower going in next door to you. Then you can tell us how you embrace it. Or maybe like Lisa Shaffer you'll move out of town when it gets too close.
DeleteOh God Lisa Shaffer and Teressa Barth are the original Progressive Liberal council members, along with Tony Kranz of course, who sold us out to big developers.
DeleteAs did $tock$ before them.
Delete11:49 wrong Lou Caldia aka Alan Yates. Stocks, Bond and Muir voted against the development, unfortunately it wasn’t enough when Blakespear, Kranz, Shaffer and Barth held all the votes for all those years. The council was always a Liberal majority.
Delete10:32 now that...is funny, thank you.
Delete12:26 is the real comedian who sounds a lot like $tock$ himself. Just a particularly nasty BIA water carrying ex politician who thinks he can rewrite history. Sad.
Delete12:16p- Your ignorance is showing. Lou or Alan was never on the City Council. Get your ducks in line before spouting off.
Delete1:24 typical WD refugee error getting their recent history wrong :D
DeleteAs in you have it right they've always got it wrong lol.
Delete1:48 Please enlighten me. When was Lou aka Alan on the City Council? I checked and don't see his name as ever being on the Council. Lou Aspinal was on it a long time ago. But that's it.
DeleteLou Aspell.
