Walmart pumps $515,000 through Encinitas-based dark money group
Time to ban nonprofits for the abuses they create.— October 16, 2013 12:49 p.m.
Thinking Flashes in the Sky (Part 4)
The original edition of that newspaper, very rare, shows alien communications devices, the interior of the spacecraft, and alien bodies. According to a friend who is an alien from space himself, the UFO hit a weather balloon. Unusual that same would make it crash. Over 150 space aliens, of several different species, live underneath SpaWars in Old Town and the Marine Corps Recruit Depot. We get all of our technology from the 149 species more intelligent than us. George Takei, Sulu of the original Star Trek series, has published on Facebook a number of photos of other planets and species. One alien who lives in Old Town, an Atlantean (pixie, fairy, leprechaun, little green man) is named Yahweh Gabriel Moroni, and has a site on Facebook. Ask him about the truth.— October 16, 2013 12:42 p.m.
Tolerating Zona Norte
Important note that "Prostitution", a crime, is illegal everywhere, and is the failure to follow whatever laws exist regulating sex for money. The other word, prostitution, usually not capitalized, refers to any sale of sex for money, whether legal or not. So, "Prostitution" is illegal in Nevada, while "prostitution" is not. Semantics, like the word "virgin" (one who has never had sex) versus "Virgin", a religious prostitute.— October 16, 2013 12:34 p.m.
Tolerating Zona Norte
Zona Norte is very dangerous. Prostitution, however, is very legal in Mexico, and major cities in Mexico are required by law to have a Boys Town (Pueblo Muchachos) where it is legal. I dated a Tijuana prostitute for a few years, and she showed me that they pay taxes, have licenses that require government tests, go in periodically for required medical exams, get screened for drug use themselves, and many belong to a Labor Union. That notwithstanding, there are many who operate illegally, because they would fail a drug test, or do not wish to pay taxes, or could not pass a test for HIV and/or hepatitis. The legal ones are actually permitted to operate anywhere in Mexico, not just Zona Norte, and often available in high-end hotels. Potential users are cautioned that drug use with a legal prostitute can get you arrested and them facing a license suspension. I wrote a book on legal prostitution which included Wisconsin, Nevada, Mexico, Canada, and Puerto Rico.— October 15, 2013 10:34 p.m.
AG charges Corinthian Colleges with false advertising
Dozens of colleges are recruiting on the Trolley, promising good jobs that nobody ever gets. We need to STOP giving schools a thousand dollars a week of taxpayer money for every student they enroll.— October 15, 2013 10:19 p.m.
Local lawyers disciplined by state bar
Well, I am happy that there is some tiny bit of anti-corruption work going on to reign in crooked attorneys. Now we need a non-political lawyer-free prosecutorial team, to finish the job of cleaning up the Worlds Most Criminal Profession. (I know, you thought that was a dope dealer or a prostitute.)— October 15, 2013 10:16 p.m.
Lincoln Club spends close to $50k on anti-Nathan Fletcher mailers and signs
Good plan to bash the Candidate of All Possible Opinions. Fletcher is probably good for at least 20 more political party and philosophy changes by the end of the year. Paul Aguirre would be nice, not as good as Bob Filner, mind you, but way better than the alternative, David Alvarez!— October 15, 2013 10:12 p.m.
San Diego overlords and unions — who can stop them?
Great thread, and thanks to all who contributed. My plans to recall any Mayor except Aguirre stand, and I have 9 thousand volunteers.— October 10, 2013 10:52 p.m.
San Diego overlords and unions — who can stop them?
You need to be careful, writing the truth like that, or you might have to move to Colorado, to avoid being shot to death by the San Diego Real Estate Mafia!— October 10, 2013 10:51 p.m.
San Diego overlords and unions — who can stop them?
