Saturday is the beginning of the Latino Mexican hate(of America)-fest here in San Diego. Nothing like a little Hispandering to prove how sincere you are about issues that matter to Americans.

Steve Foley’s attorney is saying the that the city of Coronado has agreed to pay $5.5 million to his client to settle their lawsuit. Seems odd he would say this considering the agreement was supposed to confidential.
Quite frankly I think he should get a big fat goose egg. Well chin up Rachel Silva; the lottery is open for business in the California court system.

BRUCE K. HUFF / Union-Tribune
Steve Foley is held back by his mother, Betty, during the trial which was settled today. Foley was staring down Aaron Mansker, as Mansker sat at the rear of the courtroom, at one point moving toward him.
Steve Foley has settled his lawsuit with the city of Coronado. He was to take the stand today. An alternate juror stated that Officer Mansker was “way out of line” in the incident.

There are quite a few people who read my blog who think that America is a terrible place, and that there is nothing we do correctly, or right. They also believe that all cops are dirty, and abuse their power. It’s clear they have never been to a country that is truly corrupt, and where the people have no power.

LAT: California Death Penalty is Dysfuctional
This is exactly what the ACLU and other radical pro-criminal organizations have wanted for years. They have done all they can to slow the process and raise the cost, so they can tell people it doesn’t work because it’s too slow and too costly.
In one, five law enforcement commissioners complained that the majority was “seeking to undermine public confidence” in the death penalty and that the report “unmistakenly reveals a personal bias” against capital punishment.
Eight other commissioners wrote a separate report calling for abolition of capital punishment.
Four signed a statement saying “the time may be right” for a ballot measure to end the death penalty and alternately proposed limiting capital offenses to less than 10% of first-degree murders.
Unreal.
The way to fix this, is to speed up the system; not eliminate the death penalty. Sickening.

The Dukes Box at Glastonbury Festival
I was browsing the BBC News site, and ran across this story. See Glastonbury’s surreal side (pic 9). How could I not look into this?
