Bradley's Mid Year Report Card
We haven't heard much about the antics of Bradley and the Glassell Park Neighborhood Council lately.The Arroyo Seco Journal asks the question if "this is anyway to run a neighborhood council?" Back late last year the newspaper had a report as to concerns special interests had taken over the Council, many in the community now feel this has come to fruition.
Among the alleged trangressions of Bradley and crew as reported by the Journal:
- Not posted any minutes of any proceedings for nearly 6 months.
- Failed to adequately maintain GPNC website. (Website is now offline.)
- Ignored the approved 4th quarter 2006 budget and expenditures were not honored nor followed through with.
- Held Illegal Executive Committee votes. Illegally added an Assistant Secretary to the GPNC Executive Committee
- Passed Action Items with less than the required minimum eight votes
- Illegally changed the name of the standing Land Use Committee to the Economic Development Committee, in violation of the GPNC bylaws, and the political opposite of the Land Use committee.
- Attempted to disallow videotaping of GPNC Meetings
- Lied with regard to City attorney’s position as to whether written permission was needed from the GPNC Board
- Violated the Brown Act numerous times including requesting the name of a videographer taping a GPNC meeting.
- Bradley did not recuse himself from an April 17 GPNC vote of support for a Victory Outreach sign, though he had a clear and public conflict of interest.
- On April 17 and June 5, Bradley publicly lied in denying he had any dealings with Victory Outreach pertaining to their proposed sign.
- Bradley attempted to intimidate stakeholder Alisa Smith during her presentation to the board until a former boardmember stepped between them.
- Bradley did not declare his community standing and conflict of interest at a recent Zoning Appeals hearing for Victory Outreach, only until the Zoning Administrator asked him.
- The majority of the complaints and accusations all come back to one issue—conflict of interest.

First Zuma Dogg, then Antonio Watch and now Mayor Sam himself has been spun by the mayor. He took down the posts about the Mayor's son. How sad. I guess the Mayor threatened you and you caved. Fucking wimps. Of all people we could look up to Zuma and MS to fight government abuse but now they are pussies.
Yeah,
After all that posturing and positing yourselves as pure purveyors of information... YOU FRIGGIN CAVE!
Unreal.
How about some explanation? Was it because John and Ken ran with your innuendo and made you skittish?
How will we EVER trust your mayoral scrutiny?
ANSWER THIS POST. These are critical issues to your valued readership.
What happened to the AV Jr posts?
Jimmy Blackman called Mayor Sam
You now officially suck.
Impeach Bradley!
Is that his first name or his last name?
Gee, I noticed all the mayor stuff gone. What happened? I'm sure someone gave Mayor Sam and Zuma Dogg a tongue lashing.
Instead of bashing Bradley put a thread up on this.
David Hernandez & Ted Hayes to square off with LA City Council
in Court over Proposition R. Long awaited confrontation goes to Dept 86 on Monday!
WHO:
Community Advocates David Hernandez and Ted Hayes vs. Los Angeles City Council
WHAT:
The long awaited legal challenge to Prop R gets its day in court.
WHEN:
Monday July 16, 2007, 9:30 AM
WHERE:
Los Angeles Superior Court, Dept 86 Rm 836, 111 No. Hill St. Los Angeles, CA. 90012.
True to their pledge to the residents of Los Angeles, David Hernandez and Ted Hayes are taking the legal challenge to Proposition R back to court. Undeterred by the delays and tactics, Hernandez and Hayes have remained patient and focused on the events which will take place next Monday.
http://www.lasuperiorcourt.org/civilcalendar/index.asp?CaseType=Civil
Following a legal maneuver by the City Attorney, the case which had been assigned to Judge Dzintra Janavs was reassigned to Judge David P. Yaffe. This caused the case to be delayed again while it was being calendared to Judge Yaffes schedule.
The first legal challenge had been originally heard by Judge Robert O’Brien prior to the November election. It had been successful as Judge O’Brien found the proposition in violation of the California Constitution as it contained two issues in one measure.
The Judge removed the measure from the ballot and the City Attorney appealed the ruling. A date was set to hear the appeal after the date of the election. The measure was placed back on the ballot pending the appeal.
Following the election, the measure passed and the original petitioners withdrew their challenge. The Appellate court did not hear the case and no legal decision was rendered. Many who are unfamiliar with the case believe the measure was found to be valid, but in fact the only legal decision given was the one by Judge O’Brien who found it to be unconstitutional.
Once Hernandez and Hayes are successful, the extra four year term given to the members of the Los Angeles City Council will no longer apply.
Those council members who will be immediately impacted by the loss of the extra term are Jan Perry District 9, Ed Reyes District 1, Council President Eric Garcetti District 13, Janice Hahn District 15, Jack Weiss District 5, and the newly elected councilmember of the 7th District Richard Alarcon.
A press conference will be held directly following the hearing
Of all people we could look up to Zuma and MS to fight government abuse but now they are pussies.
[the antonio, jr story isn't about govt abuse, and wasn't my story, and i didn't comment on it at all.]
I'm sure someone gave Mayor Sam and Zuma Dogg a tongue lashing.
[You ARE sure...funny, because I am sure NO ONE contacted me in any way, shape or form asking me to take down the story and there was ZERO tounge lashing.]
Personally, the story had ZERO interest to me as a community activist/reporter/whatever.
I don't think the problems with LAUSD and the rest of the city has anything to do with "Jr.", so I am glad the story is down. And to the people who actually give a sh*t, one way or the other...ZERO RESPECT TO YOU LOSER...YOU OBVIOUSLY ARE IN IT FOR ALL THE WRONG REASONS YOU AGENDIZED, TAKING THINGS PERSONAL, GET A LIFE LOSER. Boo hoo hoo...I can't read about someone's son.
I can't believe you removed the post and comments about AV jr. His adult son is benefiting from his father's influence peddling. I still want to know who is paying for him to go to Princeton. We know he's not on some sort of academic scholarship. His family's not poor. Are they paying for it? I doubt it.
No caving. I've received some additional information that will change the nature of the story and could be quite explosive. Stay tuned.
I am pretty sure from this and things I have seen at City Hall that Zuma's silence has been paid by the Mayor. All the brain addled dope smoking wigger needed to shut up is to get a little mayoral love. Not the same kind of love as Mirthala but you get my drift. And I am sure this will be deleted in 15 minutes.
Higby you've been clowned by the Mayor's people. Never thought it would happen. You did remove that story Jimmy Blackman requested you to. Thought that was a one time thing. City Hall has won.
I am a NC Board Member Myself but dealing with people that are always there such as the lady that is taping us DONT YOU HAVE A LIFE OR A JOB.. geez
MR. HOFF,
"[the antonio, jr story isn't about govt abuse, and wasn't my story, and i didn't comment on it at all.]"
Cant you read the previous post?

If you want a new and interesting thread why doesn't MayorSam tell us how they were threatened frm the Mayor's office. I'd like to know how this is done.
So, John and Ken ran with this story yesterday then you pulled it from the site. I don't get it. I worked hard getting all those photos and posts for you. The only thing that could be a bigger story is if someone reported Jr to the local police showing them the photos of him drinking underage on the beach.
Do you remember when Bitter Bernie came on here about a story on him and he basically threatened all of us to stop posting and go see him at city hall. Yeah right!! I have a problem with our 1st ammendment rights and freedom of speech when a certain website post something a politican doesn't like and then gets the big bad guys to stop it. This is going to get good now cause they are trying to shut us up.

WHAT!!! YOU MEAN I AM SUPPOSED TO BE GETTING PAID FOR MY SILENCE?!?!?
DAMN IT...HOW COME EVERYONE ELSE GETS PAID EXCEPT ZD...
But seriously...You are pretty sure from things you have seen, huh?
BRO, YOU HAVE YOUR HEAD 100% UP YOUR ASS...Are you willing to administer a polygraph test to me to back up your "pretty sure."
YOU ARE COMPLETELY MISTAKEN AND FULL OF SHIT.
Fortunately, other blogs picked up the photos and posts from here. Blackman's going to have to threaten a lot of bloggers to get this down.
Antonio Jr posting on Facebook
TO JACK HOFF:
I appreciate your disdain for Zuma Dogg. But you must realize that people who use the term "wigger" are really just trying to sneak in the n-word without sounding racist.
The pseudo-irony doesn't fool anybody you racist. If I call your mom/daughter/wife a "witch," isn't it obvious I really mean "bitch?"
ZD,
ck paypal Sat cmg ur wy
mv
Or she makes you itch?
Or take in a Stitch?
Or you wish she was in a Ditch?
Covered with Pitch?
Without a Hitch?
(Amateur pop psychologists; ain't they grand!)
Would you prefer we call pretentious reverse Oreos something like "Wegroes" or Wolored People? Maybe even Wlacks?
Wafrican-Americans?
Listen, if the amalgamated term fits, represent it!
Re: What to call people
Call 'em what you want. You are racist.
Urban/hip-hop culture is ubiquitous in America. But then again so are pizza parlors and prostitutes. You've frequented both, I'm sure.
I gaurantee the same racists who castigate ZD as being a "wigger" use those same urban or hip-hop references, thrown around by ZD, everyday of their lives. They just loathe themselves for giving in to what they perceive to be inferior influences.
Don't feel bad. ALL Americans, all of us reflect various characteristics of cultures we formerly rejected. It's like growing up and ending up like your parents. It's called life.
Use the term "wigger," and you are a racist. Plain and simple.
The real challenge is to make your point(s) without name-calling. Doing so requires clarity of mind and perspective.
A firm grasp on your native tongue doesn't hurt either.
In the meanwhile, enjoy mediocrity.
Yes, we all have lives. And it's OUR right to attend these public meetings, speak at these meetings, and yes, record these meetings. READ YOUR BYLAWS. Afterall it's OUR TAXES that we pay for you to be a NC boardmember. Think about it. As far as I'm concerned ALL Neighborhood Councils should be abolished from the city charter. And I hope that Coalition starts up soon. As a legal registered voter, I will vote to remove neighborhood councils off the city charter.

I know it wasn't Blackman that called Mayor Sam. I overheard the discussion yesterday morning.
Dump this idiot like the Northridgewest NC stakeholders dumped Alger.
Alger was the president of his Neighborhood Council and lost by a landslide. Alger was slapped down by the community and it is time to do the same to Bradley.
Maybe this Bradley guy is planning a run for mayor?
Oh my, people taking the name of Jack Hoff in vain!?
What has this blog come to??!
8:13 and 8:15 may be J*ckoffs, but they are not the REAL Jack Hoff!
That would be myself.
And belated apologies to anyone who thoughtfully responded to the J*ckoffs....
If Bradley was smart, he'd channel the resentment against a Home Depot in Glassell Park into a scheme whereby the Neighborhood Councils would buy emergency supplies from Victory Outreach. Victory Outreach would supply a portion of the profits to the No 2 Home Depot Glassell Park folks. If all of the money is not used, Bradley would make sure it went to the Congress of Neighborhood Councils.
Nah, Bradley isn't THAT stupid!
Where is Jim Alger these days?
Ever notice that you never see Jim Alger and Zuma Dogg in the same room at the same time? Hmmmm.
THIS GUY BRADLY, YOU CAN TELL IS A CREEP!! DUMP HIM!!!!
