Open Thread for Wednesday
On February 1, 1979, the Ayatollah Khomeini returns to Iran in triumph after 15 years of exile. The shah and his family had fled the country two weeks before, and jubilant Iranian revolutionaries were eager to establish a fundamentalist Islamic government under Khomeini's leadership.Born around the turn of the century, Ruhollah Khomeini was the son of an Islamic religious scholar and in his youth memorized the Qur'an. He was a Shiite--the branch of Islam practiced by a majority of Iranians--and soon devoted himself to the formal study of Shia Islam in the city of Qom. A devout cleric, he rose steadily in the informal Shiite hierarchy and attracted many disciples.

Thank you Antonio for picking a radical police commission board that is against LAPD officers who do their job. "these are't people who act emotionall." These are people that make decisions based on facts....VILLARAIGOSA
WHAT AN IDIOT!!!! Oh and Chief Bratton doesn't make decisions based on facts? No wonder LAPD hates Antonio. I hope LAPD officers simply wave and stay in their cars in South LA and let the blacks keep killing each other and officers won't have to risk their life or careers just to get slammed by these political morons police commissioners
How ignorant can they be??????

On a 4-1 vote the Police Commission declared that the shooting death of 13-year-old Devin Brown by officer Steven Garcia was out of policy—but THE OFFICER'S TACTICS WERE WITHIN POLICY, KFWB reports
I've seen Monica Garcia around town trying to get votes. It's quite a site to see her in a dress after having only seen her for years in pants and orthopedic shoes.
Do we really have to go there. We should only concern ourselves with their policy and not with appearance.
I believe it was comedian Red Buttons who coined the name:
"Ayatollah Kockamamy"
CSEA, (California School Employees Association, AFL-CIO, Los Angeles Chapter 500) just endorsed Enrique Gasca for Los Angeles Unified School Board.
Gasca has also received the endorsements of: Congressman Joe Baca, Assemblyman Ron Calderon, Assemblyman Joe Baca Jr., Assemblyman Ed Chavez, Assemblyman Tom Calderon, Ret., Montebello Unified School Board Member, Richard Adams, Hector Chacon, and Marcella Calderon, and Los Angeles County Democratic Party President Eric Bauman.
Yeah, yeah 8:57... in what perfect world.
Pretty boy, absentee CM Villaraigosa got to be mayor because of his "policies" NOT his looks.
Sorry, I meant to say "Policy" (singular), because other than one piece of city business that took two years to approve, the ONLY thing he's on record in council agendas for from 2003-05 is waiving city fees for ribbon cuttings and block parties (WHERE he CAMPAIGNED for mayor, at a cost to taxpayers).
How the fuck do you even get a gig like that, where people pay you six figures to spend MOST of your time working on NATIONAL campaigns and trying to LEAVE for a higher paying job... (unless, of course, you're "pretty!")
What's up with the family photo op AV passed to all media? Maybe Corina has been hidden too long and all the rumors were beginning to surface about AV lack of decorum. We all know its b.s. and AV constantly insults our intelligence.
Jimmy Carter got the shiite kicked out of him.
Sunni or later, all Democratics presidents do. . .
Jay Leno out to send his gag writers here for some freebies!
Kinda funny 10:25am...
You are trying to brag about endorsements, but not one of those on your list have anything to do with LAUSD. Maybe you can get some endorsements from some police officers next! Good job!
That guy is just trying to find the first available spot for higher office.
Again read how stupid these new police commissioners are. Word around LAPD today is officers are furious and they will not be as proactive and let's see if crime goes up where these blacks bitched, threatened and complained.
TACTICS
As it relates to the tactics in this incident, the Police Commission found that the tactics employed by the officers were in policy, formal training for one officer and divisional training for five officers. The vote was unanimous.
DRAWING OF THE WEAPON
Relating to the drawing of the weapon, the Police Commission found that the drawing of the weapon was in policy by a unanimous vote.
USE OF FORCE
Regarding the use of force, or firing of the weapon, the Police Commission found that the use of force was out of policy,
Hey 10:25--
CA School Employees Assoc also endorsed Christopher Arellano. You forgot to mention that in your post.
Call it for Enrique. He's got the endorsement of "Fighting" Hector Chacon.
Call it for Monica she has the endorsement of Layne Bryant and the Cheeseburglar (Richard Simmons and Carmen Manheim are holding out).
Let's not forget that Bush Sr. was secretly meeting with Osama's older brother Salen bin Laden in France to negotiate delaying the release of the hostages to help him and Bonzo win the election.
