ON THE TODAY’S 5-23-21 SHOW

xxx What’s coming up (grab your barf bag) at the next Shitty Council meeting Tuesday 5-25

xxx Caustic Bathrobespierre Commentary on the City Council’s latest collective punishment of unhoused folks–the CSSO (Camping Services and Standards Ordinance)–previously known as the TOLO (Temporary Outdoor Living Ordinance).  Actually, it’s the 1978 Sleeping Ban, stripped of its “sleeping” language but with the same effect, plus the removal of the vehicular sleeping ban (in practice substituting the 72-hour move-along law selectively applied).

xxx  Severely limited Public Comment from the few Zoom watchers on the rushed and rubberstamped Enforcement-First No-Funded-Services CSSO law with Donna’s Meyer’s Dusthearts devoting 2 1/2 hours to cosmetic chatter in a preset conclusion with subsequent public discussion rejected.

xxx Local resident and Food Not Bombs patron Gayla scopes out the scene.

xxx “Down but not Out” Dreadeye on the Latest SCPD Harassment

Check out the weekly HUFF meeting  Thursday May 27th 11 AM at 703 Pacific  (the Sub Rosa next to the Bike Church]  for coffee quaffing and complaining, sharing reports and retorts, and serving as a form of support and speak-out against the wave of anti-homeless post-COVID police policies to drive the poor out of sight and out of town.
