IRVINE COPS LOOKING FOR A SHOOTING SUSPECT

And, guess what?  Unlike the political cops of Costa Mesa, the Irvine cops have identified the perp even though he's not white.  Yup, they say he's a Latino.

Giving full descriptions of outstanding violent criminals has to help keep people safe and it also has to help the cops nab the criminal.

Costa Mesa PD seems to want to hide the race/ethnicity of outstanding violent criminal suspects unless they're white.

As you may remember, the CMPD refused to tell the CM PRESS the race/ethnicity of two organisms who robbed a store in north Costa Mesa recently and who may be out there running around looking for victims on our streets.

WAS VICIOUS ATTACK ON WHITE FEMALE SCHOOL BUS DRIVER BY BLACK STUDENT RACIALLY MOTIVATED?

Hmmm. Let's see, as he was beating her, he called her a "white bitch."  Is that enough for a hate crime enhancement?  Of course not. 

Silly you. Remember, the attacker was black and the victim white.  Now do you understand?

Of course if the races were reversed...well you know how it goes in Third World America.

STEVE SMITH'S COLUMN ON THE HOMELESS PROBLEM

Smith indicates  that you and your kids are safe in Lions Park because not all the homeless people are crazy and will attack you or your kids.

Of course, Smith is right. Not all the homeless people will attack you or your kids.

But, it only takes one to attack, doesn't it?  In life, you have to play the odds and you aren't under any obligation to waste your time sorting such things out.

And, doesn't your common sense and your instinct for survival tell you that there is more danger and situations you'd rather avoid in a park full of adult men and women who are hanging around a park all the time and who don't have bathrooms or showers and with enough of them appearing to have mental problems or drinking or drug problems, than if you were in a park full of mothers and their children?

Now, let's turn to sharks. 

If you know that there are sharks in the ocean near a swimming beach, can we say that you shouldn't be afraid to go into the water since, statistically, most sharks won't attack you?

What?  You say that you're not put on this Earth to sort out which sharks will attack you and which ones won't and that you'd rather not waste your time trying to do so and that you just want a beach with no sharks?  You might also say that there is no benefit to you in even trying to sort it out and that you'd just as soon not swim with any sharks at all.

How insensitive of you.

But, libs don't think that way.  They want you to waste your time and possibly put yourself in danger to consider the character of each individual shark or homeless person.

BE SURE TO READ THE HATE FILLED COMMENTS AFTER ARTICLES IN THE DAILY PILOT

Here's a good place to start.

Most of the serial name calling haters and bigots appear to be city employees.  Many also claim to be cops.

The arrogance and hatred for Costa Mesans just seeps through most of these comments and as you know from reading the CM PRESS, most of these employees don't even live in this city that pays them so well.

Can you imagine having a job and feeling that you are owed that job or that you are entitled to it and that your employer can never lay you off or fire you?  That's one of the attitudes that comes through strong and clear from these people.

When you read such comments, it makes you wonder why the City Council doesn't lay off every single employee and start fresh with a new crop that won't be fed the hogwash that they're part of a "family," and who will be expected to show up on time for work, do a full shift and have respect for the citizens of this city.

And, speaking of respect.  Wouldn't it be nice to have a complete top to bottom police department with cops who do respect the citizens of this city instead of one that allows some thugs in the ranks who try to smear citizens and who use their badges and uniforms to intimidate citizens and elect puppets to do their bidding?

RIGHT SIZE MUNCIPAL GOVERNMENT AND HAVE IT SERVE THE PEOPLE OF COSTA MESA NOT THE OUT OF TOWN EMPLOYEES

We see some comments from some people who complain that the present proposed layoffs and other cuts to our municipal government and its budget aren't necessary because the city has found money over here or a way to do some tricky accounting over there.  The import of their remarks is to keep the status quo.

We disagree.

We've long thought that local government has gotten out of control and too often just serves itself.  And, with impunity.

We think the New City Council is on the right track and we think they should keep cutting even if the city won't fall into the ocean if they don't.

We do hope that they'll change some old priorities and start paying attention to the Westside.

As we constantly write:  The Westside is the key to fixing all of Costa Mesa.  Fix it, and the rest will fall into place.

BLACK TEENS ATTACK A 15-YEAR-OLD BOY IN CHICAGO

Wouldn't you like to know the race of the victim?  Don't you think that's relevant since the attackers were all of one race?  If the victim is of a different race, doesn't that give a clue that this was racially motivated?  Even a hate crime?

RIGHEIMER WANTS MORE SAVINGS FROM BUDGET

Mayor Pro Tem Jim Righeimer did the right thing at yesterday's budget meeting when he asked City CEO Tom Hatch to come back to the Council with another $2.9 million in cuts so this money can be used in the vehicle replacement fund and the rainy day fund.

This shows that Righeimer isn't being cowed by the haters and bigots and will do the right thing for the citizens of this city.

Keep up the good work Mr. Righeimer, but as you do so please see if you can find some money in the budget to start thinning out the slums and putting in pocket parks and doing other things to fix the broken Westside.

INTERIM POLICE CHIEF STAVELEY SAYS THERE WON'T BE ENOUGH COPS TO HANDLE CALLS ABOUT UNLICENSED ICE CREAM TRUCKS

Actually, Chief, and with all due respect, before you were on board, and while the police force had staffing of 160 +- officers, many officers wouldn't respond to such calls anyway. 

Many just sneered at citizens.  In fact, one of the motivations for Assemblyman Mansoor to get into local politics was because the cops wouldn't do anything about such nuisances in his then neighborhood.

I could fill several pages with complaints I've heard about some CMPD cops.

TRUST US WE'RE THE COSTA MESA POLICE DEPARTMENT

Wonder why Steve Mensinger didn't bother to file a police report over the hate crime attack on him?

Check out the sign that some cops came to our city and dragged around behind a Cadillac Escalade as they tried to defeat Jim Righeimer and put a puppet with a DUI on his record on the City Council. Say, what about all that holier than thou talk from the CMPD about drinking and driving?

And, what about the cops who are leaking internal police matters to the public in frequent hate comments in the Daily Pilot?

Don't forget about the cop who used a department GPS device to stalk a woman.

Trust us we're the CMPD.  Right.

By the way, the daily papers are characterizing this attack on Mensinger as vandalism.

It's more than that. 

Mensinger is a City Councilmember and he was apparently targeted as such and because of that. 

This appears to be an attempt to terrorize Mensinger into not doing his job as a Councilmember.  This was like a warning from the mob to vote the way they want.  This was a horse's head in a bed.

Will the CMPD find these street terrorists?  Well, they still haven't found the person(s) who threw a brick through Skosh Monahan's bar window.

MINI-GOVERNMENTS ROBBING US BLIND

Read this expose in the OC REGISTER [HERE] and see if your blood doesn't boil.

The article says that the general manager of the Mesa Consolidated Water District receives  $ 278,424 a year in compensation.

Look folks,  the CM PRESS has been warning you for years about these mini governments--we have two of them in Costa Mesa; three, if you count the NMUSD (which is still paying a superintendent who is on leave due to legal problems): The Mesa Consolidated Water District and the Costa Mesa Sanitary District.  Each one of these mini-governments  has their own version of a city council.

When we've gone to Water District and Sanitary District meetings, we're usually the only ones there.

By the way, did you get the postcard about your water rates going up?  You can protest, but you may be the only one doing so.  People are apathetic and they just don't bother complaining or protesting.
#                    #                                  #
IS IT TIME TO OUTSOURCE THE POLICE?

Many citizens of Costa Mesa fear that simply reorganizing the CMPD and hiring a new police chief may not be enough to get a police force that is trusted.

When trust is once lost, it's hard to regain.
#                   #                      #
UPDATE:  According to the Daily Pilot [HERE], Mr. Mensinger didn't file a police report with the CMPD. 

Hmmm.  Now, why wouldn't he file a report with a department that has cops who come to our city and drag political signs behind their cars and that has some nutcases who write hate comments in the Daily Pilot and some who reveal internal CMPD business and some who try to elect puppets to the city council and some who refuse to even give proper descriptions of outstanding violent criminals running around our streets?

Maybe he just doesn't trust the CMPD?

BREAKING NEWS---HATE CRIME-ATTACK AGAINST COUNCIL MEMBER MENSINGER LAST NIGHT

The CM PRESS is getting early reports that haters and bigots attacked Council member Mensinger's home last night and did damage with painted slogans, apparently on his car(s) and on material used for Pop Warner football.

We are seeking confirmation and photos if available.

We know some are calling for the FBI to investigate this hate crime, but so far the CMPD says it can investigate it.  Right.  That's what they say. 

By the way, the CMPD still hasn't found the person(s) who attacked Mayor Monahan's bar.

Can the CMPD be trusted to investigate this latest hate crime against a Council member?

Remember, some people who claim they're cops and who seem to have inside CMPD information have been posting hate comments in the Daily Pilot.  How about investigating them?

THE PARITY SCAM EXPLAINED

Some people argue that Costa Mesa doesn't pay its employees too much and that their pension plans are in line with those of some other nearby cities.

This can  be called the parity scam.

What happens is that the employee unions try to buy a city council in one city in a geographic area by helping elect their paid union shills.  The bought and paid for city council then does the unions' bidding.

So, for example, if the unions are successful in getting their shills in the majority on a council  in  City A, their paid shills on the Council will give the union employees raises and expanded benefits.

Then, the union members in City B, will whine that they need parity with City A.

Next, the union members in Cities C, D, E, F, and on and on, will all demand parity with Cities A and B.

This is how the parity scam works and all it takes is for the unions to get control of one city council in a geographic area to start the ball rolling.

In a city with five council members, all the union has to do is elect three shills.  When they have only one shill, as we should all know, the scam doesn't work or it may be stopped.

ACCOUNTANT WANTS UTAH RESIDENTS TO PAY HIS FLDS LAND TRUST DEBTS

Background and summary: The Fundamentalist Church of Latter Day Saints or Fundamentalist Mormons follow the original teachings of the early Mormon church.

The states of Utah, Arizona and Texas have been persecuting them for their beliefs.

A few years ago, a Utah judge put a non FLDS accountant in charge of FLDS property.  The accountant promptly ran up millions of dollars in debts.

Some believe this was a calculated and deliberate attempt to bankrupt and destroy the FLDS.

The FLDS refuses to pay him and they say that the judge and the accountant have violated their religious beliefs in what they have done.

The CM PRESS has gone to many Costa Mesa City Council meetings in which we've suggested to prior Councils that they should have staff stop putting BS and eyewash in the agendas and other reports.

We've told the Councils that if we were on the dais we wouldn't accept some of the reports that they are expected to read and that we'd return them to staff.

Our dictums: Make your reports short and put your most important points first.  Use simple declarative sentences.  Break up large paragraphs.

One shouldn't have to read a report several times to coax the correct meaning out of it.

A single page should be adequate to present most issues to the Council. 

The assertions on that single page may be backed up by additional pages if necessary, but these additional pages are just supporting data.

You will note that the newspaper did report they were "youths."  So, we ask:  Is age any more central to telling the story than race?  And, of course, there's no sense in ever giving gender either. 

So, maybe the newspaper should just report:  "Some people were attacked by some other people."

Ho hum.

OUT OF TOWN A-FRAME SIGN COP DOESN'T LIKE THE CMPD REORGANIZATION


Remember the anti-Righeimer sign that was pulled around our city behind a Cadillac Escalade before the last election by some cops who work for us but who live in other cities (aka out of town cops)?

That's it in the picture up above. We took this photo of it when it was parked in front of the downtown community center before a candidate forum.

One of the out of town cops who was involved with this sign and the attempt to defeat Righeimer and put a puppet on the city council was Jason Chamness.

In the article now running in the Daily Pilot  about the CMPD reorganization [HERE], Chamness pops up again:

"There was disbelief that no amount of logic, statistical data, or law enforcement experience is going to change the tragic course this city is on," Jason Chamness, association president, said when asked to gauge the mood after the proposal was released to department personnel on Wednesday.

"There were 164 sworn police officers in 2009-2010 and a steady decrease in crime," he said. "Now the CEO is recommending a 21% decrease in officers. Even the consulting firm that the city hired and the chief recommended more officers."

Fortunately, it is not out of town cops who are running this city.  We have elected officials--a City Council--that will decide what is right for Costa Mesa.

And, the City Council members actually live here in Costa Mesa.  They have their kids here.  They have their families here.  They support our schools.  They shop in our markets.  They drive our streets. They sleep here.  They vote here. They don't punch a time clock and go back to some far flung city.

The CM PRESS believes the new City Council is on the right track. 

But, if the Council is wrong and we need more cops, we can hire them.  There will be a line around the block applying.

 STEPHEN JAY GOULD MISMEASURED SKULLS
[Perhaps intentionally]

Gould  may have intentionally fudged his results because of his prejudices and to try to falsely show that all humans are alike.

His book The Mismeasure of Man is often cited by his fellow PC travellers who are incapable of critical thinking.

The reality is that the truths of nature that apply to all other organisms also apply to humans. 

There is no superior or inferior race of  humans any more than there is an inferior or superior breed of dogs.

One always has to ask: Superior at what?  Inferior at what?  No organism is across the board superior or inferior.

Accepting the reality of human differences is no different than accepting the reality of canine differences.  It is just a realization that different types of humans have evolved with adaptations to give them survival advantages in various environmental niches.

As we write above in our masthead: Nothing scientific can be racist and nothing racist can be scientific.

GUSHY ARTICLE ON THE SOUP KITCHEN ON W. 19TH STREET

Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy doesn't it? The main commercial street on the Westside has a free soup kitchen to serve homeless people.

In other cities, charities such as this are on skid row streets, not the main commercial street.

Say you own an upscale restaurant chain or a retail store and you want a heavily trafficked street to open a new location.  Would you want to open your business near a free soup kitchen?

Perhaps you want to buy a home for your family.  Would you want to be near a free soup kitchen?

Folks, we're going to lose good residents if we don't fix the Westside. Who wants to live in the crap they have to take all the time?

C'mon City Council it's time to be decisive.  Fix the Westside!  Do it now. Stop screwing around with bandaids and get the place on par with the rest of the city.

Here's the real problem for you City Council--the city has a charity machine in place that makes money off illegal aliens, homeless people, parolees, drug addicts and others in need of charity services.  And, the charity machine constantly gets praised by the swells for being compassionate.

Here's the other thing, City Council, you keep giving our money to the charities.  Isn't it time you started pulling cogs out of the charity machine by not giving them our money and by getting them out of the Westside?

Isn't it time you cut City government even more down to size so we have money to buy up and tear down gang buildings?

Also, instead of having code enforcement harassing a woman because her 30 year old hedge is no longer in code, how about having them start checking all the codes on the charities on the Westside?

HMMMM...LET'S TRY IT AS A FABLE

City A noticed there were a few hungry pigeons in the city, so it spent tax payer money to feed them. 

The next year there were even more hungry pigeons in City A so the city spent more tax payer money on them. And, this continued. 

Soon, City A had to hire more City employees to clean up after the pigeons. The government grew and grew and it no longer had money to fix streets or parks or make the city nicer because all its money was going to employees involved in one way or another with the pigeons. Stable citizens moved away.

City B, right next door to City A, also noticed there were a few hungry pigeons in City B.

However, City B  refused to spend any tax payer money on feeding them. 

Soon, the hungry pigeons in City B flew to City A.

You see, the pigeons had figured out that City A was full of bird brains and suckers who could be counted on to give them free food while screwing the stable citizens of the city.

And, the pigeons could always count on the usual "compassionate" people in City A to mouth the usual cliches about City A being a compassionate city and they could count on the local newspaper to publish gushy articles about their compassion.

POLICE RESTRUCTURING CHATTER

Be sure to read the comments from the presumed out of town cops who are posting comments after the above linked Daily Pilot article on police restructuring and the meeting held with cops about the restructuring.

One presumed cop commenter avers that CEO Tom Hatch repeatedly told cops at the meeting that the City Council doesn't trust City employees.

We weren't at the meeting so we don't know what Mr. Hatch actually said, but we doubt he said what that commenter claims he said in the way the commenter wants it to sound.

Nevertheless, our guess is that the City Councilmembers--being ordinary citizens of Costa Mesa--probably share a growing distrust in some employees given the way some of them have been acting during these difficult times.

And,  what about citizen attitudes toward the cops?  Many citizens tell us that they don't trust or have confidence in the department and want to see changes.

Once trust is broken, it's difficult to regain it. 

Hopefully, the CMPD will do what is necessary to rid itself of the few bad cops who many believe are the real problem over there and replace them with professionals.

CITY HALL ANSWERS SOME OF THE OUTLANDISH OUT OF TOWN UNION CLAIMS

The CM PRESS agrees with the union that the City spends too much money, and that's why the CM PRESS has been suggesting that we right size government for years.

Unfortunately, the union doesn't want to right size government, it just wants us to spend more of our money on ever more union members and not spend money on fixing streets and bringing in some real improvement to the Westside.

Folks, the CM PRESS believes that this new City Council is on the right track, but we want the Council to spend a lot more money on improving the Westside.  We want to see the Council buy up some slum buildings, tear them down and put in pocket parks or even parking lots.  We need to thin out the slums--that's part of draining the swamp.

HOMELESS MAN INJURES 3-YEAR-OLD IN LIONS PARK

Give thanks to the Great White Mothers and Great White Fathers in the various charities and all their squishy supporters for this guy being in the park.

The next time you read a gushy newspaper article about all the swells and beautiful people from Newport Beach, the Eastside and Mesa Verde attending some soiree to raise money for the magnet charities in Costa Mesa, remember this incident.

Stop feeding and making illegal aliens, criminals, gang members and homeless people feel comfortable in Costa Mesa and they'll leave for greener pastures.

If the swells complain, send the illegal aliens, the criminals, the gang members and homeless people to their neighborhoods and see how long they put up with what the beleaguered residents of the Westside have to put up with every day.

Oh, you say we can't just put them on a bus and send them to the neighborhoods of the swells?  No problem, we don't have to do that at all.  They all have feet.

Just relocate the charities to Newport Beach, the Eastside or Mesa Verde and the illegal aliens, the criminals, the gang members and the homeless people will quickly find their way there.

BREEDISM

College Park, Georgia is going to enact a dangerous dog registry next month. 

All Pit bulls, Dobermans, Rottweilers and German shepherds will have to be on the registry.

Does this not sound like doggy racism or breedism?  Does this not sound like profiling? Does this  not sound like discrimination?

Don't all dogs bleed red blood?  Aren't all dogs the same under the fur? Shouldn't the content of the character of individual dogs be considered?  Isn't breed just a social construct? Isn't there just one breed--the dog breed?

AT THE CITY COUNCIL MEETING LAST NIGHT THE COUNCIL VOTED TO USE HUNTINGTON BEACH'S HELICOPTER SERVICE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS ON A TRIAL BASIS
[Photo of Robinson helicopter]

Leece and Mensinger voted against the proposal.

Odd comments from Mensinger.  He said he would support Leece's much more expensive proposal to keep the present program going for three months if she would agree that if it didn't make sense at the end of three months, the Council would do away with the program.

Leece then said she'd agree to that, and that's apparently what caused Mensinger to vote with her.

Our question to Mensinger:  Are you nuts?  Wendy can't be trusted.  She goes back on her word.  And, when she goes back on her word she always tries to justify it in some way as being for the best for the people of Costa Mesa.

HELICOPTER MADNESS

As we've written before, Costa Mesa flies expensive Eurocopters that are manufactured in France.  The company also has a facility in Texas.

Instead of flying the fancy Eurocopters, the CMPD should be using Robinson helicopters that are manufactured in Torrance.

Look folks, it's time for some common sense on this matter.

Eurocopters have a greater lift capacity than smaller Robinsons so if you want to pluck people off the sides of mountains, the Eurocopter might be a better choice.

However, Costa Mesa doesn't have any pluck worthy mountains.

Costa Mesa uses its helicopter as an eye in the sky.  That's it.  Period.  We need someone to look down from above to help ground cops with searches and chases and maybe frown at the bad guys and give them the stink eye.  

The helicopters aren't armed.  No rockets. No chain guns. No door gunners.  Just a guy sitting in there looking down. Might as well be a guy in a lawn chair held up by balloons.

Some Robinson helicopters can be flown for about what it would cost you to operate an expensive luxury car.  And, the view from them of the ground is every bit as good as from a Eurocopter.

FOURTH OF JULY OBSESSION

Leece constantly brought up her concerns for the 4th of July. It was pretty silly. Relax Wendy, it'll be no big deal whether we have a helicopter in the air or not.

WENDY IS CONCERNED ABOUT CRIME

Leece also said she is afraid of crime and that the Westside has gangs. Of course, they're not in Wendy's gated community, but Wendy says she's seen some sneakers up on the power lines nearby.

Well no kidding, Leece.  There are gangs on the Westside because you and your illegal alien loving and charity pimp pals refuse to remove the habitats for gangs and you coddle the gangs by giving gang members and their families free services.

You want to get rid of alligators?  Drain the swamp and they'll leave all on their own.  You see, alligators are comfortable in swamps.  They get food there and they feel at home there.  If there's no swamp, they move to where they are comfortable.

Say, metaphorical CM PRESS...why...that's just like gangs and criminals.

You mean if Costa Mesa removes the magnets for gangs and criminals, they'll leave?  You mean if we stop giving them housing and feeding them, they'll move on? 

Yup.  That's exactly what we mean. Improve the Westside properly and you'll be doing the equivalent of draining the swamp.

If you don't drain the swamp, you'll go broke trying to hire enough alligator cops to control the alligators.

'RANDOM' ATTACKS BY 'YOUTHS' IN CHICAGO

Random?  The attackers are black and the victims generally aren't black.

Sounds like the attacks aren't truly random and that most or all  victims are targeted based on race.

Why isn't the press reporting the attacks this way?  You know the answer.

LEFTY WENDY LEECE, THE CHARITY LOVING CHICKEN LITTLE ON THE CITY COUNCIL, IS SQUAWKING AGAIN

This time this loon says criminals are going to come to Costa Mesa if  the City doesn't fund the extravagant helicopter program.

Wendy has gone from being just slightly off kilter to being a full blown hysteric.

On her blog linked to above, Lefty Wendy says she had a ride along with the cops this week and, golly gosh, she was frightened and fears for our safety without the expensive helicopter program.

We wonder if the cop who took her on the ride along was the bad cop who gave out internal CMPD staffing information in a post in the Daily Pilot.

Look folks, this ride along stuff is often used by some cops for PR purposes and they take weak minded people like Leece along on a boogeyman route to get them to do the political bidding of the cops.

Once again, we wonder if the CMPD can be saved or if we should outsource the whole department to clear out the bad cops. 

It'd be a shame to lose the many good cops over there, but the department seems to be under the control of a few out of town bad cops who are pushing social and political agendas instead of being professional police officers.

One rotten apple can ruin the whole barrel.

Could this be a hoax by someone within the Google Mars team or by a hacker who has photo shopped this object onto the Google map of Mars?

We'll try to keep track of the story and let you know.

Will the Costa Mesa City Council do this, or is the Council too cowed by the lefty scum to take this next step to improve our city?

At least some news sources and police departments are giving full descriptions of violent criminals.

Now, if we could just get the CMPD to do the same, we might have a safer Costa Mesa.  Well, maybe after those in the lefty clique within the deparment leave, that will happen.
