Those are our opinions. Thanks for reading them.
CORRECTION
In CM PRESS # 463 we erroneously reported that Mayor Eric Bever didn't mention gangs or illegal aliens during the candidates' forum on Thursday night.
Mr. Bever did, in fact, mention both, and he also promised to continue his work to drive down crime and rid the city of gangs.
As most people probably know, Mr. Bever has been one of the strongest anti-crime and anti-gang voices on the city council.

NOTORIOUS TRASH CAN BURNER FOAMING AT THE MOUTH AND SAYING WE SHOULD LIE ABOUT OUR GANG AND CRIME PROBLEMS!
Check out the almost daily Daily Pilot's resident scold Auntie Steve Smith's column in which Auntie Smith thinks he's coined a clever substitute for "Improvers," in the term "Complainers."
Be sure to also look into Smith's mind by reading his many posts in answer to his critics that appear with the column.

Actually, the term Complainers is not bad. The CM PRESS hopes we have Complainers on the City Council instead of just heads in the sand Pollyannas like Flopsy Katrina Foley and Linda Dixon.
Auntie Smith foams on and on about how we shouldn't point out our gang and crime problems because this might give people the wrong idea about our city.
Wrong idea? We do have gang and crime problems.
The truth can never be the wrong idea. To pretend we don't have such problems is a lie. So Smith, who always tries to claim the moral high ground, is suggesting that we should lie?
The first thing you have to do in solving a problem is to admit you have a problem. If you don't do that, you'll never solve the problem.
We have a gang and a crime problem and a poor student score problem and a slum problem and they are all a direct result of prior city councils turning Costa Mesa into an ersatz illegal alien sanctuary city.
Thank God for Complainers in Costa Mesa. They may help keep you and your family safe from violent street criminals and they won't lie to you and lull you into a false sense of security.
Would you rather hear about crime and gangs before you or your kids are victims or after?
The CM PRESS knows someone who was attacked by a gang in the Mission-Mendoza slum in Flopsy Katrina Foley's Mesa del Mar neighborhood. And, we saw the police try to pretend there were no gangs there.
There was also an OCC college student who was murdered in Flopsy Foley's Mission-Mendoza slum shortly after she had moved in to be close to the college. Apparently, she was lulled into a false sense of security because upstanding citizens hid the fact that the slum was dangerous.
Would you like to pretend we don't have gangs and violent criminals and then have your 15-year-old daughter shot by a gang member as happened recently?
Would you like to be the family of the almost daily Daily Pilot's employee who was stabbed to death by an illegal alien because some upstanding citizens hid the fact that the Shalimar slum, near where the ADDP's employee was murdered, is dangerous?
Would you like to be the parents of the 14-year-old girl who was murdered behind Estancia High School by an illegal alien?
Listen to the Complainers, folks, because in Costa Mesa, the most vocal complainers are Improvers who want this city to be a safe American city, not a new Tijuana full of crime and gangs.
When it comes time to vote this year, be sure to check the lefties that Smith likes and then be sure to vote against them for the safety of you and your family and your trash cans.

IT'S ALL A MATTER OF PERSPECTIVE
This photo reminds us a little of one that appears on one City Council candidate's brochure handed out at the candidates' forum last Thursday.
