Qualcomm secretly contacted U.S. government
If the QCOM board was smart, and that's not a sure thing, it would have had someone who wasn't directly involved make the contact. As in some influential person who had no dog in the fight. Then the board and its members could safely claim they knew nothing about it.— June 11, 2018 2:05 p.m.
Property crimes low, worries still high
And it's also Kansas--the climate just doesn't compare. But if it is his native territory, he may get comfortable there, and the lower cost of living can help with the adjustment.— June 10, 2018 7:58 p.m.
Property crimes low, worries still high
The matter of crimes going unreported is a big one. Especially with the SDPD, and we've seen plenty of reports and stories about their indifference, many people just figure that there's no point in making an official report or complaint. If you're sure nothing will be done, why take the time and expend the effort? So, I think that they are hiding behind those statistics, and hoping the crime will go away. In many ways it is the low-level stuff that spoils the neighborhood. You pay plenty to live here, at the beach or in a tony district, and then are faced with homeless camps, graffiti, loose dogs, trash, theft and vandalism. It just ain't fair!— June 10, 2018 1:41 p.m.
Plot thickens for Oceanside's "prison hotel"
I hadn't considered that. But ol' Jer will need votes more than dollars to be elected mayor. I fear he thinks that money spent on a campaign is what wins elections, and he's generally right if that's his approach. But, if enough folks get offended by this vote, and many others he's made, bucks won't determine the outcome. Maybe some of the citizens, especially his friends, who don't like this idea could explain the situation to him and get him to take it back. As I said above, anything is possible.— June 9, 2018 9:02 a.m.
Hyundai out raced police copter on I-15 shoulders
I suppose you are right. But there have been things done by Bowman over the years that make me uneasy.— June 8, 2018 6:19 p.m.
Plot thickens for Oceanside's "prison hotel"
Jerry Kern didn't make the runoff election. So, he won't need developer contributions for his campaign, 'cause there will be no campaign. He could decide to do the right thing now and insure it is reconsidered. Then he could vote against it, and ride off into the sunset with some good memories left behind. Hey, anything is possible.— June 8, 2018 4:50 p.m.
City lowers the bar
This is typical of the "do nothing" city hall. They've been useless for decades, except when political pressure and attention were applied. There was a time when code violations were dealt with if you could get your city councilperson to pass the report along to the slugs and then follow up. But while such use/misuse of the council representative's time and attention did make a difference, it just made the shortfalls permanent. They never have enough staffing in any area because there is insufficient funding. How long will San Diegans accept such excuses and start to demand that the city government do its jobs?— June 8, 2018 4:47 p.m.

Hyundai out raced police copter on I-15 shoulders
You confirm what I thought. The victim testified and the defense realized that it was a lost cause and punted. Hence the request for a mental competency exam. But I do wonder about Bowman and his motivation to accept the motion. Just what is he up to?— June 7, 2018 7:54 p.m.

Wasn't another trial in Bowman's court similarly delayed on Monday? Defense attorneys will do anything to delay justice, especially when they have a case that cannot be defended at all.— June 7, 2018 5:13 p.m.
