Open Thread for Wednesday

The old, dead Republican mayor is suffering some jet lag so here's a few things for you to debate:

  1. How long will Mirthala and the Mayor stay together?
  2. Will OJ actually be convicted?
  3. Venice doesn't want Starbucks. But Thursday Supervisor Gloria Molina will celebrate the first one in East LA.
  4. What is Jan Perry's favorite menu item at McDonalds?
See you soon!

When is Mirthala's suspension up?

Will she be back on t.v. doing non-political reporting?

How might she incorporate Antonio into some legitimate features in her new role? How about an entertainment report on the modern politicians and their significant others, from an insider's perspective?

What a clown and total fool!!!! Never before in our history of this city have we had such a loser of a Mayor that no one respects. How dare he stand in front of the cameras and act as if he had nothing to do with the illegal vendors and gang bangers in MacArthur Park. He's told the illegals its ok, ignore the law, you deserve to be here. ASSHOLE

......What does 40,000 people per square mile mean?" Councilman Ed Reyes said. "It means that people of different universes are existing in the same space and it creates a sub-economy, a subculture in which those with little wallets, those who are existing or surviving on poverty, they get relegated to a level of insecurity, of terror, of influence of the local gangs."

NO ED IT MEANS THERE'S TOO MANY DAMN ILLEGALS AND YOU NEED TO TELL THEM TO GO BACK WHERE THEY CAME FROM.

Here's a good idea...

Make Villaraza, that dummy Ed Reyes, and Florida frequent flyer Jose Huizar shop exclusively at the illegal vendors they enable and facilitate. Let them live on tomaine hot dogs.

When one of their family members are affected by this, you will see some change. Hopefully, from a hot dog - and not a bullet.

Someone here recently was quoting from the current book about the Mexican Mafia. I have been reading it as well.

There is an amazing section of the book dealing with the highly successful efforts of "la Eme" and its associates to take over, subvert, and corrupt numerous publicly funded drug rehab and gang intervention programs over the years.

It just validates everything bloggers here have been saying about these programs, and worse. This includes a stunning number of murders traceable directly back to these corrupt programs. There is even an extensive discussion of the infamous "No Guns".

What a bonanza for them if La Hahn were to get her tax increase to fund more of these programs.

The gang banging cholo Mecha Mayor told LAPD to stay away from MacArthur Park after the May 1st melee because the illegals were afraid. But yeah right they were so afraid they were out the next day illegal vending. So that gave all the 18th Street and MS13 gang bangers free reign all the while the mayor and council did nothing and kept telling the illegals "aqui estamos and no vamos." You watch dumb ass Ed Reyes and Cholo Mayor now DEMAND LAPD be there 24/7 to protect illegals.

Where's Bernard "Rampart" Parks on this issue.

Jan has at least increased the number of Supermarkets in her Council District. As much as I love her, I think she's barking up the wrong tree. I think she should be require physical education back to Elementary Schools (One to really screw with MAyor Beaner-aigosa) and add more parks and clean safe playgrounds so that obese folks can burn the pounds off safely without fear of getting robbed or getting shot in a drive by.

Too bad we have a gutless Mayor because this is what they should do in LA.


....../On Sunday, the anti-illegal-immigration group Save Our State sent a contingent of 100 protesters to Royal Avenue outside UCC, hollering slogans into bullhorns, toting signs and waving American flags. The church's advocates dispatched more than two dozen counterprotesters who chanted in opposition.

Four Simi Valley Police Department officers arrived to keep an eye on things, swelling to 15 cops as the crowd grew. Aside from a minor scuffle between two protesters, all sides agreed the standoff was peaceful and orderly. Police arrested no one.

But the city was unhappy with footing the bill for the overtime and associated costs and decided someone had to pay.

The church got left holding the check.

As soon as Mayor Villaraigosa takes over the schools, this is what he plans.

TITLE: Some Oregon schools adopting Mexican curriculum

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- Some Oregon high schools are adopting Mexico's public school curriculum to help educate Spanish-speaking students with textbooks, an online Web site, DVDs and CDs provided free by Mexico to teach math, science and even U.S. history.

The Oregon Department of Education and Mexico's Secretariat of Public Education are discussing aligning their curricula so courses will be valid in both countries.

Similar ventures are under way in Yakima, Wash., San Diego, Calif., and Austin, Texas.

"Students come to us with such complex issues," said Tim King, director of Clackamas Middle College and Clackamas Web Academy, where a virtual course using Mexico's learning materials got started this week.

"We've had to change in order to fit into each school scene, become more complex and open ourselves up to new situations."

Oregon officials say the approach is intended as a supplement to keep students learning in Spanish while also gaining English skills.

Until now, Oregon school districts generally have relied on bilingual aides or used Spanish material different from the English material others are studying.

"That's not enough," said Patrick Burk, chief policy officer with the superintendent's office of the Oregon Department of Education. He said the idea is minimal disruption for immigrant Latinos.

"The availability of resources is astounding," said Burk, who flew to Mexico with Oregon curriculum officials in August to discuss making equivalency standards official. "We're able to serve the students so much better if we're working together."

Mexico has made its national curriculum available to communities across the U.S. since 2001 to encourage Mexican adults and youths to continue an education often abandoned back home due to limited resources.

"We wanted people to be aware that they have to study," said Patricia Ramos, the director of national affairs for Mexico's Institute for Adult Education and National Advisory of Education for Life and Work.

...
"We're just ahead with all the materials," he said. "We have the Web site where students can do exercises ... they can learn through visual and audio. We were having trouble bringing something that would be familiar to their culture."

In Washington state, nearly 30 schools have already implemented Mexico's curriculum into the classrooms.

In Oregon, learning materials are free, but districts must pay for staff. So far, two computer servers supporting Mexico's Web site cost the state about $10,000 to install and about $2,200 annually to maintain.

Refugees pose 'potential crisis'
Mayor Francis asks the feds for help to deal with influx of Mexicans..
Doug Schmidt and Dave Battagello, The Windsor Star

With city shelters filled and a surge of further refugee claimants expected to flood into Windsor, Mayor Eddie Francis is pleading for financial help from Ottawa.

"When there is a possibility of adding thousands to the local social assistance system as a result of refugee claimants crossing the border into Windsor, we will become overwhelmed and our current resources will not suffice," Francis wrote in a letter sent Wednesday to Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

Over the past three weeks, 45 families and 31 individuals -- approximately 200 people -- entered Canada at the Detroit River crossings and applied in Windsor for shelter and social assistance after filing refugee claims with the Canada Border Services Agency. Municipal agencies dealing with the sudden influx of mainly Mexican refugee applicants are renting out hotel rooms and bracing for predicted thousands more to come.

This is what the city gets with a bunch of uneducated idiots like all the illegals. We've all know the gang bangers have been extorting but why hasn't idiot Reyes come out against the illegal vendors? He's giving the gang bangers an income. Don't blame LAPD either cause Cholo Mayor and Reyes and Huizar told LAPD stay away from that area not to scare the illegals. Only in this screwed up city would we have politicans who are that stupid to support illegals and not their law enforcement. But when one cop gets killed there they are like hypocrites at their funerals pretending to care. LOSERS LOSERS

Mirthala = not talented enough to stick around too much longer in her profession, she was simply okay. Not good looking enough to hold our mayor's attention. Not popular enough to be able to appear in public with him. Too used up by other politicians.

I guess she'll be in Arizona doing local news within a year. If the mayor doesn't dump her first, she'll dump him when his future comes to a grinding halt.

Wanna make bets anyone?
