2017 Increasing Awareness on All Fronts- Year of the Rooster

2017 is a year like no other.

  Many of us have been fighting corruption, tyranny, abuse, gentrification and privatization for years, decades and generations.

   We've seen our city and others around the nation become decimated by gentrification and renegade corporations take over space, push out residents by the tens of thousands and steal local cash flows for their non-taxed, foreign owned mega global corporations (from UK, largely).


   Because of for profit privatization of public services, jails, police departments, parking services by Major Corporations of the United Kingdom (in partnership with Bush's Krew in Florida), the Saudis, U.A.E. and other KINGDOMS, we know that at least 20 cents from every tax dollar spent goes into their tax free pockets and take local cash flows away from every community they operate in.


     You only get full value for tax dollars paid into public services, when they operate at cost in non-profit models that keep all the cash flows local.


   G4S Secure Solutions, Serco Global are examples of the two largest, most abusive and destructive UK Corporations that we know of, so far.    G4S has 65,000 Militarized Personnel on US Soil, in your local Safeway (see #WhoKilledRosco), local plazas, parks, rights of way, county jails, government offices, homeland security.  


    They have about 500,000 more personnel around the globe, badly operating refugee transportation, detention facilities and harm people everywhere.   Serco is G4S's lesser competitor who do about the same thing.


   Ok.  We know G4S (and contracted militarized personnel like them) attacked the water protectors, natives and supporters.   And involved with Orlando Pulse, and on and on.


   That's an example of the big enemies we have that harm us and take our cash from us.


   On the micro level,  we have seen another kind of destruction to us that's centered around those damn distractive devices.  Not only do they cause 400,000 new accidents a year, we never had before, but the number of assaults and strong arm robberies of our devices, purses, wallets, laptops and personal property has skyrocketed.


   To that end, we posted a call for Volunteers to form Safety Patrols and we know it will work well for us all. 

  One woman who saw the postings we made on Active Cell Phone Theft Area posting about the 16th & Valencia Street area that has three groups we've identified from numerous victims and witnesses.


    She saw this tall, thin, dark skinned young man (usually talking loud on cell phone as a distractor as he walks around 'spotting targets'  - working with -  a much shorter, older, medium toned skinned, well dressed (2/3 piece dark brown suit) man scoping out phones, purses at the FISH MARKET near 23rd & 24th and Mission Street.

  They tried to get her and her cell phone & purse, but she was already aware -- she yelled, fought back and ran.

  Yes, she came back another day with friends and now sees them and calls attention to them at the fish market.  

GREAT JOB!

Gott go, but here's the post:

We All Pay - Uber and Other Drivers' Misuse of Commercial Plates and Meter Space For Personal Use

Wednesday, January 14, 2015 - High Noon

        While checking out a cool S.F.F.D. Fire Truck parked in the red zone at the corner of Rondel & 16th Street, (where Esta Noche Cantina used to be, we saw an Uber Driver pull up and park in the Commercial Parking Only Yellow Zone, in front of El Cafetazo Cafe.  

     We took a picture and asked him about parking in a spot that is intentioned for commercial vehicles to come and go fast to do deliveries, loading and unloading.    He said, 'It's okay because I have commercial plates and that lets me park in any commercial zone like this.'   

     That sounds cool... but then we thought, wait a minute, if the intent of these spots is fast 'in and out' access to get goods and services into our local restaurants and shops, then what is the legitimate reason he is parking there, in fact ?

     Is he using the commercial space for bonafide commercial purposes, as intended or is he misusing or 'taking' that space, illegally for his own personal use, such as personal shopping or perhaps... eating a lunch at a nearby restaurant, but he doesn't want to pay for a real consumer parking spot... he'd rather slide by using a commercial space for personal stuff.

     It's our understanding that if a public servant uses city property for personal use, without legitimate approval,  it's considered to be 'an unlawful taking' or theft of city property.  

     If a caretaker uses a disabled person's car and placard to do personal shopping with, it's a criminal offense, like a kind of a fraud to use a valid thing to cover use of time or vehicles to do personal matters and errands with. It's a form of deception. 

  When people cheat like this, it tells us alot about their true underlying nature of their character and conduct 'when they think no one is watching'.   It's fun like babysitting bad spoiled children from afar.

    When the S.F.F.D. Firemen came over to their fire truck, we discussed slow emergency response times relative to increased number of amateur drivers for fire, who constantly block bike lanes, pull fast U-Turns,  leave 20 foot gaps in front and behind while sitting in traffic using their distractive devices and told the firemen the truth. 

    When our city is capable of STOPPING the renegades and regulation avoiders who are here en masse, clogging up our streets, stealing parking spaces and pissing off the entire town, slowing down all emergency responses and our normal local traffic & shopping patterns and flows --  we will NOT support using more tax money to buy more emergency response vehicles and personnel.   

    Why would any sane person support increasing the number of emergency vehicles and personnel on the road, not while we have ever increasing numbers of newcomer & other amateur drivers  IMPACTING OUR ABILITY TO MOVE FROM ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER QUICKLY & SAFELY, IN THE FIRST PLACE.

   Adding more emergency vehicles will just cause more conflict and delays. 

  When our city leaders cater to corporations that BLOCK OUR ABILITY TO SAVE LIVES QUICKLY and FAIL  TO ENFORCE OUR LAWS TO STOP THEM then we must replace our city leaders.

    They sucked up to the same global banks and corporations that are plundering our city and stealing local cash flows.     

   They are causing a clear and present threat and danger to our people walking on the streets.

   They steal from mom and pop shops who need affordable space and unimpeded parking and pedestrian traffic flows by using commercial spaces for personal errands and driving while distracted, as a habit that kills.

    We're putting in a call to SFMTA and City Hall to learn if it's illegal for anyone to use commercial plates, to avoid paying their fair share of parking fees. 

  Or when they are using them for their own personal or non-commercial purpose or some other use -- which is not the intended use, as expressed by local codes.

Wall of Shame - Mural in da Mission
   Stay tuned....   we think MANY VALID COMMERCIAL vehicles are now driving round and round the block, causing more pollution, traffic, delays and costs to us all.    

  Only because scores of amateur drivers like from Uber and perhaps Lyft, et al. are TAKING AWAY & MISUSING space and meter time that was NEVER INTENDED to used by them for their personal errand parking convenience, in the first place.


  WANT TO HAVE MORE FUN ?   TRY THIS:

   1.  Call up Uber & Lyft - ask them if it's Company Policy to allow Uber Drivers to Use Commercial Plates to use to park in Metered Commercial Yellow Zones to do their personal errands with ? 

   2.   Call up SFMTA - ask them if it's cool to have Uber vehicles parked in LOADING ONLY Yellow Zones while they run errands and go eat lunch down the street ?

   3.   Call up the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and Mayor Edwin Lee (aka Liar, liar, pants on fire, leave you to die in a bomb threat at city hall Mayor) - ask them:   

    Why Do You Let These Mega Corporations get away with grand theft, murder and causing over 5,000 local businesses and over 10,000 local residents become homeless in the past 3 years alone ?


       Why do you allow a climate to exist that results in over 3,000 Homeless children enrolled in schools to happen,  when there was only a few hundred, before Chase Bank & All These Global For Profit Monsters came to town starting in 2006-2007, to this very day.  

    SHAME ON YOU ALL !

      Why did you take away public bus lines on Valencia, spend a fortune on trees and bike lanes only to have Google Buses (often empty), Uber, Lyft and others come along and clog it all up and make it unsafe ? 

     They are over-running (aka Nazi Blitzkreig) our local mom and pops and local residents & existing public services and grass roots community groups (like in Our Bayview).   

    They continue to get away with this, only because of a general lack of protection and enforcement of laws that we wrote for our protection. 

Honor Given To Known Criminals
   To reduce harm, costs, risks and save lives and be locally prosperous, self-sufficient and independent of not from here banksters, corporations and bad higher government.

   Why Do You Honor Known Criminals Like Raymond Chow ?

      Ask them if they are Traitors or are they Honorable leaders ? 

    Ask them if they are going to admit they screwed up big time for short term personal, political and other gains by destroying the lives of over 10,000 San Franciscans who did no wrong, caused no harm.

  They were simply PUSHED OUT by renegade techies who do not respect locals, do not respect our traditions, customs, laws and ways of living.

  They are here to take, take, take and our current city leaders ARE GUILTY AS CHARGED.

   Gee, we sure wish the Honorable San Francisco Board of Supervisor Jane Kim would be OUR MAYOR & KICK ASS of all these carpet bagger, newcomer plunderers that our current Mayor kisses up to... 

What a piece of work Lee turned out to be. 

 His actions have spoken louder then his empty or much too late promises...  to many, it's a disgusting lack of honor or heart FOR THE PEOPLE.  


Bit Younger Jane Kim circa 2005
   JANE KIM TO THE RESCUE !?!?!

    We've watched her 'really grow up' these past few years and have gotten to know her and understand her better. 

    She's for real.  She's not for sale to greedy shortsided developers and carpet baggers from the East.      

    She has A HEART and IS VERY SMART and understands CIVIL RIGHTS.

    She WORKS WITH OUR PEOPLE, not making megabucks on the side harming them and making them become homeless.

   WE ARE BEHIND YOU 100% JANE! 


THINK ABOUT IT... THE HONORABLE MAYOR JANE KIM FOR THE PEOPLE OF THE CITY & COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO ...

 OR THINK ABOUT BECOMING CALIFORNIA STATE ATTORNEY GENERAL.  

WE CAN SEE IT NOW! 

Swearing In Ceremony for BOS Seat 
.... HERE'S THE HONORABLE ATTORNEY GENERAL JANE KIM IN FRONT OF SF CITY HALL - ANNOUNCING THE END OF PROHIBITION AND ELITE MONOPOLY STATE LAWS WE DO NOT NEED TO PROTECT US FROM CANNABIS.  

    ATTORNEY KIM EXPLAINS CLEARLY TO THE MASSES OF SICK, TIRED, ELDERLY PATIENTS, WRONGFULLY JAILED CANNABIS PRISONERS AND VETERANS AND COLLECTIVE MEMBERS, 

      "WE CAN LONGER RUN AWAY FROM THE TRUTH OF THE HISTORY OF CANNABIS & TYRANNY IN OUR CITIES, STATES OR NATION.

     WE ALL =KNOW= IT'S A SAFE HELPFUL GIFT OF NATURE AND POLICE ACTION TO ENRICH THE ELITE IS A RACKETEERING FRAUD THAT IS NEARLY 100 YEARS OLD.

       IT'S UP TO EACH ADULT AND THEIR LOCAL COMMUNITY TO HAVE ALL POWERS, BENEFITS, RIGHTS TO CANNABIS, FROM THIS DAY FORWARD...  
     THIS IS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PEOPLE'S PRE-EXISTING NATURAL, HUMAN & CIVIL RIGHTS UPON WHICH WE STAND, UNITED, AS FREE PEOPLE.

     WE, MEANING THE PEOPLE OF SOUND MIND AND GOOD INTENT DO NOT NEED GOVERNMENTS OR CORPORATIONS TO EXPLOIT OUR SAFE GIFTS FROM NATURE ANY LONGER. 

    WE ARE WEARY OF THEIR MONOPOLIES AND INCREASED BURDENS AND COSTS THAT GO TO THE ELITE.  WE NO LONGER NEED THEM TO FULLY ACCEPT CANNABIS BACK TO OUR SELVES AND OUR LOCAL COMMUNITIES AS WE WISH"

   IMAGINE THAT PEOPLE!  

 A CIVIL RIGHTS ATTORNEY - FOR THE PEOPLE - AS OUR STATE'S TOP LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER.

Do you think she would let The Elite get away with destroying our local cannabis collectives and allow them to create Cannabis Monopolies For The Elite ?   

   WE NEED HER IN THE HIGHEST POWER POSITION WE CAN GET HER INTO!

 Cheers to you all.  Remember you are never alone.   There are new groups -not on facebook- growing all over many other Social Network Sites that do not track you or resell your personal data and habits and contact lists.    We've been reviewing a list of 49 Alternatives To Facebook and will update that Issue in a few months.   We're already on a so-far-so-good, steady-as-we-go 'secure' sites in Iceland which are on two sites.

   One site (https://seen.is) is for more public group social networking with forums and groups, classifieds and is very cool and clean.  You'd be surprised how many groups you know and don't know have scrambled like bees to Seen.Is to get away from the others we can't trust.

      The other twin site is ( https://UnSeen.Is) is very much more private. Great for secure, voice, text, video chat and group and team building for family, trusted peers, other group leaders, et cetera, so you can get real stuff done, without advertising or constant commercialized distractions or the taking of your personal data and content for profits like facebook and all like them have done, to us all for too long.

     Stay safe and never be alone on the Streets of San Francisco or the place where you live.

SPEEDING UBER DRIVER ALMOST RUNS DOWN U.S. POSTAL WORKER & LOCAL RESIDENT ON VALENCIA ST TODAY

SPEEDING UBER DRIVER ALMOST RUNS DOWN U.S. POSTAL WORKER & LOCAL RESIDENT ON VALENCIA STREET, FAILS TO SLOW DOWN, THEN ‘FLIPS’ THE BIRD AT THEM AS HE SPED NORTH TOWARDS MARKET @ 12:13PM TODAY, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 10, 2014.


San Francisco, California - A local cannabis patient advocate was following along a U.S. Postal Worker, who was crossing over Valencia Street, to deliver mail on his route.


 Cars headed southbound, in the 400 Block of Valencia Street, slowed down, waved us to cross.
 
  A new, Large Black SUV, was seen headed for us at high speed (approx. 35-45 mph on dense, residential street), coming from the south (from 16th Street towards 15th Street).

    And as he (Black SUV Uber Driver) saw us in his path,  he appeared to speed up and stuck his middle finger up against the driver windshield, grinning like the Devil himself... totally out of control and in some fit of rage or complete lack of care for anyone’s safety, including his own.

  He really terrified us.    Others walking who saw him, were outraged. 

     You could see him and that U for UBER badge in his windshield, just so happy to have local pedestrians in front of his big, black SUV.


  This happened right after 12 noon, at about 12:12PM, today, less than an hour ago. 

 Since Chase bank moved into town in force (circa 2006, 2007,2008) and all these lack-of-regard-for local-laws by these 'newcomer corporations and techies', our lives have become more dangerous.

    In the past decade, up to about 2 years ago,  no one in this part of the mission district had any problem with conflicts because everyone has a reason to cross the streets, at will, to avoid hazards, bad people, bad cops, bad store owners.

 And due to other things like mental illness, drug useage (recent stats say Seven Out of Ten Folks Here Are Now On Big  Pharma Drugs) but the majority of our locals didn’t use cars much and when we did, we never honked much or got mad at delays because tomorrow, we may have to cause a delay, and that keeps us safe. 

 Newcomers, being lured into and packed into our city with too many cars and now outlaw drivers, underpaid, underinsured employed in about to fail business models are not just an inconvenience. 

 They steal our space, enable Chase to jack all housing up 4 Times normal rates;  evict all classes of local residents, businesses, mom & pops and children into the streets who built this city and made it what it was before all these ‘actors’ were imported here to drive us all down & out of our own city.

These drivers operating under shaky biz models are causing real harm to us every day now.   Hell, they killed a young, six year old girl this past month, didn’t they ? 

   It’s just like when Domino Pizza Drivers began to crack and started to drive more and more wreckless as their illegalities and shit hit the fan. 

Same cycle repeated over and over onto new waves of naïve or pre-channeled young minds who in their defense are just trying to get by any way possible, but nonetheless, they are being used as weapons against us...

    I mean, who in government lets a product be sold that results in more than 1.6 Million Accidents on our roads from coast to coast, in a single year....

Wow!  One point Six Million Accidents caused by distracted drivers.  That rivals all other causes of accidents combined (i.g. DUI’s, Weather, Car Defects) which are Ipods, Iphones, Androids in the hands of Drivers of Cars, Vehicles and Baby Buggies.

   Who are all distracted (but don't think they are) to the point of being neglectful of the responsibility to us all, to NEVER be out of control or distracted while operating vehicles that maim and kill in split second, on any given day, at any given time, for any number of existing real life reasons & causes.

Well, we told some bikers and asked them to bike ahead and get this Out Of Control Uber Driver’s License Plate Number and shoot him with video so we have a record.

   In fact, we’re going to start an new Task Force, just to monitor and document how much damage and death is already being caused by Uber and other similar, renegade, new wave criminal enterprises to us all.

We say criminal, because those in charge should have known, by looking back at the history of all similar start up model’s eventual fates, that using their current biz models when everything is minimized like a nazi engineered rocket, they even set aside budgets to pay for anticipated FUTURE HARMS & LOSSES they know their biz model creates... mayhem, pressure, conflict with locals, preventable accidents and tragedy... all planned and prepaid for, hidden from the view of mass media and the investors that control them...

It’s a shame to see a great city change, only because of the presence of outsiders, who obviously care more about money and power, than safety and people’s lives.
