Some must resort to dissing our name because they don't have any valid criticisms to make.<br /><br />Could they be HD employees? What's Joseph Mailenders excuse? <br /><br />They apparently see no value in a College and a General Store that our community so desperatly needs. <br /><br />Perhaps they would be of better service looking after their own neighborhood and find a site for HD there since they are so gun ho in supporting that sneaky sleazy company.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-31787854417776602232010-12-06T23:43:56.896-08:002010-12-06T23:43:56.896-08:00Phil got 110 birthday greetings on Facebook.Phil got 110 birthday greetings on Facebook.Michael Higbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03229225335109401795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-58522642637383089932010-12-06T21:31:59.412-08:002010-12-06T21:31:59.412-08:00Krekorian represents all of Sunland-Tujunga, and i...Krekorian represents all of Sunland-Tujunga, and is well liked by his constituents.

There would eventually be some new job opportunities, but not enough to impact the community in any meaningful way. They even stopped trying to use that "job" carrot after we found out about the employee transfers. <br /><br />You obviously lacked the correct info before spouting off your opinion.

Now some folks in Sunland Tujunga need to explain why Home Depot should not lease its lot to a low-impact Christmas Tree retailer. Sunland Tujunga's long tradition of isolated activism has always been susceptible to its flipside: lynchmob-styled frontier justice. The nascent protesting of the new, temporary use of the lot seems to violate the spirit of the former, impact-targeted activism, and even issue an unfair constraint on a landowner with rights to compete in the kind of commerce the business district otherwise deems acceptable."<br /><br />I had to give Joseph a reality check: <br /><br />"Joseph I doubt few are of the opinion that Home Depot is not legally entitled to hawk Christmas trees on the property they control. The issue is that after being one of the worst examples of corporate citizenship in ST, engaging in horrible tactics, vilifying individuals and astro-turfing in the most evil way this is much like an abusive ex-husband showing up to the victim's Christmas party to get a free meal.<br /><br />And from what I understand Home Depot has gone to some lengths to hide the tree lot's identity. If HD feels there is no issue to sell Christmas trees in ST why not be transparent?<br /><br />I think that there is certainly nothing wrong with the activists in ST educating the populace that their enemy is back in town and that folks can use that information and not patronize the lot, should they choose to."<br /><br />I'm baffled by Joseph's lack of clarity here in (LA)observing the issue. To be frank (and likely get myself in trouble) I believe his view is colored by his recent displeasure with JoeB.Michael Higbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03229225335109401795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-70513045753520801932010-12-06T11:45:32.206-08:002010-12-06T11:45:32.206-08:00Seriously Home Depot's unwillingness to get ov...Seriously Home Depot's unwillingness to get over ST is like an obsessive ex-boyfriend stalker or a junkie looking to get a fix.Michael Higbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03229225335109401795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-32600023900619548102010-12-06T11:39:56.114-08:002010-12-06T11:39:56.114-08:00It's evident by a few of the posts on this sub...It's evident by a few of the posts on this subject that Home Depot is checking out this blog and using it as a marketing tool!

Even more reprehensible were their tactics to paint the community as racist and bussing in hundreds of supporters to meetings that did not even live in the community. A company that uses such tactics to circumvent the laws and ordinances does not deserve our patronage.
