1. During the past year several corrupt policemen were fired in Dallas.
I contacted the Dallas police department and requested that the entire department be dissolved. If two men were corrupt, the whole department must be corrupt. When the police chief said I was nuts I told him that this was the same logic used with ACORN.

3. Nominating your reply for the best end of the year political statement on exactly
how wrong those on the right and how hypocritical they are, nothing can distract from the truth of that reply, all one can do is pretend ignorance and play dumb when shown the proof in such a bold statement..

4. That's a good one
Did the police chief respond to that? I am sure to him there's a difference. I bet he thinks one is more important than the other.

Its a good point you make though. If we're going to defund an organization because of the actions of a few members, then why not do the same for other organizations? Tit for tat. If a police department can't keep its act squeaky clean then they don't deserve public funding.

7. Where is this magazine located?
"Harbor"? Boston Harbor?

I see they reprinted a Jeremy Scahill article from The Nation.

8. In San Pedro, CA
The Los Angeles and Long Beach Harbors. Their publications are always all over the place for free around the harbor area. I always pick mine up from my union hall.



Peace,
Xicano
