RAMZPAUL'S TAKE ON THE FAMILY THAT WAS ATTACKED BY BLACKS FOR BEING WHITE

Short video.

This is the same story that we reported on the other day.  A White family--a husband/father, wife/mother and their daughter simply pulled into a gas station and were minding their own business fueling up their car when they were attacked by Black racists who told them they were in the wrong neighborhood.  

RAMZPAUL points out what we've been pointing out for years:  Too many Whites have been so conditioned to be fearful of doing anything that might be perceived as racist (meaning race hatred) on the one hand, and have been so blinded to reality by the MSM hiding Black on White crimes on the other, that they are psychologically unarmed when confronted by situations and people that should put them on their guard.  In other words, their natural survival instincts have been overridden and makes them easy victims.

REPORT: PHYSICALLY WEAK MEN MORE LIKELY TO BE LEFTIES AND PHYSICALLY STRONG MEN MORE LIKELY TO BE RIGHTIES

Seems to be the same here in Costa Mesa.

WHO'S MINDING THE STORE IN LOOSEY GOOSEYVILLE?  WE GET SOME ANSWERS

Remember back in CM PRESS # 218 published on May 8, we wrote about the City not following what is generally considered to be a best business practice by essentially throwing out 435 desk top computers and buying 435 brand new ones at a cost of $358,110?

The vote of the City Council to make this purchase was based on a staff report that justified this mass throw-away and new purchase largely with the following two sentences in the staff report:

"The City currently has about  435 desktop computers throughout every City owned facility.  Many  of these computers were last upgraded around  2003 and are beyond their life expectancy." 

Well, the CM PRESS made a California Public Records Request of the City to see if we could nail down a few facts. Yesterday, we got the documents we requested.

So, here are the above two sentences which we have now split apart for your ease in reading what we've discovered.

The staff reports says: "The City currently has about  435 desktop computers throughout every City owned facility."  

FACT:  According to the inventory from the City, we actually have 483 computers, but some of these are  laptops and notebooks. The number of 435 desktops is about right.  Furthermore, we won't quibble about the 435  figure since this is the actual number of new computers that the City Council has just voted to buy.

The staff report says: "Many  of these computers were last upgraded around  2003 and are beyond their life expectancy." 

FACT:  According to City records, out of the 435 desktop computers owned by the City, only 23 were purchased in 2003. Thus, 412 are newer models.  So,  only about 5 per cent of our present desktops were purchased in 2003.  Many?  Five per cent doesn't sound like  "many" to us. 

PERSPECTIVE:  Bob: "Say, I have $ 435.00 in one dollar bills and I want to give you many of them.  Here you go, $23.00."  

FACT: The rest of the desktops (412 or 95% of them)  were purchased from 2004 to 2013--not in 2003, with the vast majority purchased in 2005.  So, well, er, we guess one can say that 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 are sort of "around" 2003.  After all, it's just a ten year spread. 

PERSPECTIVE:  Bob: "Say, you have 435 nice looking suits."  Bill: "Thanks, but many of them were purchased around 2003, so I need to throw them all out and get brand new ones."  Bob: "How many of the 435 suits were purchased in 2003?"    Bill: " Twenty-three."


In CM PRESS # 218  we also wrote the following:

Furthermore, common sense and best business practices dictate that you do not  replace every computer at the same time in an organization. Instead, you usually replace no more than 1/3 at a time.  So, you'd replace 1/3 this year and maybe 1/3 next year or the year after that and the last 1/3 after that.  This way, you're always getting the newest technology.

And, do ALL employees need the newest and most powerful computers?  What about employees that mostly just do word processing?  What about employees in the maintenance yards?

The staff report also doesn't say what is going to happen to the 435 old computers.
