DarNel -

Do you really want to get into a racial breakdown of the crimes committed by youngsters in Santa Barbara?

If you did, you would find that the overwhelming majority of crimes are committed by Hispanic youths NOT white kids.

I would hereby like to officially nominate Mr. Scoles for Mayor of Santa Barbara.

As a longtime Santa Barbara resident, I have watched as our town degrades year after year. Whether it is political correctness or total ineptitude (i.e. Mayor Blum), the political "elite" in this town continue to run it into the ground at an alarming rate.

Before long, we will all be forced to ride bicycles to work as there will be no more available lanes for cars.

As Mayor, I know Mr. Scoles will be able to clean house a la Michael Douglas in Falling Down. I hope and expect Mr. Scoles will become a modern day super hero who will summarily and appropriately expel all of "the drunken bums, illegal aliens, and Mexican gangbangers."

Touche, Mr. Scoles, touche.

Rennergizer: great points.

Is it not crazy the entitlement mentality that is displayed by today's general public?

It is everywhere.

Even our presidential candidates have to pander to these radical "La Raza" groups:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080714/pl_n...

It is no wonder that Mayor Blum is their puppet. Mayor Blum's problem, like that of most politicians, is that she is engaged in a never ending quest to be loved by all. That is why it was great to see Obama, no matter whether you support him or not, call out the Black community about taking responsibility for the outrageous statistic that 70% of black babies are born to unwed mothers. Jesse Jackson, the race-baiter that he is, interpreted this as "talking down" to Blacks instead of supporting Obama for his leadership.

(Please note as a point of clarification that those on the Left want to be loved by all, except those that are "rich" and "do not pay their fair share".)

Wow. Freedom of speech anyone? Is this WWII Germany? Or is this modern-day China? Is this really the United States?

It appears Randy proved my point in regards to the P.C. police, the media being hijacked, and the inability to have a frank discussion about certain topics. Thanks, Randy.

My post that was removed had 100% accurate information in it. I did not call anyone names nor was I mean or insulting nor could it be accurately classified as a result of "rage."

Randy, please re-read my post and ask yourself if that really warranted to be censored and completely removed from an open discussion. I would have no problem saying what I said to anybody in person. Why should I be scared or hesitant to cite facts? Apparently, as I stated earlier, that are A LOT of people, including Randy, who are afraid to confront these difficult facts.

Do you realize you just erased a post that simply contained facts? My post did not contain any "vicious name calling" as RForsyth inaccurately said. RForsyth also proves the point than any critical naysayers instantly get labeled as vicious or racist even though they simply proffer facts.

Am I not allowed to say that the admitted goals of certain Latino organizations, namely MeCHA and other La Raza-types, is to re-claim Aztlan?

Given the behavior of the over-zealous monitor on this site, one would think I was spouting outrageous propaganda and that I was the radical.

I was curious so I googled "mecha aztlan". The first result even cited a text book from Santa Barbara School District! Check this out:

http://www.mayorno.com/WhoIsMecha.html

Please do not censor this, Randy! :)

Randy here: thanks for expressing your opinion in a more acceptable fashion.

There is something fundmentally wrong with the Hispanic community in SB in that they do not speak up against this sort of outrageous and animalistic behavior. Where is the outrage? Where is the leadership? Where is the self-responsibility? Where is any introspection? Lose the Latin machismo and acknowledge the fact that your community cannot control its young men. The Hispanic communmity fails to emphasize the value of education. They are self-destructively stubborn.

Also, because of the draconian P.C. laws present in the U.S. now our own media cannot report about the legal status of those involved.

I hear rumors they were illegals but why not report the facts? It is a salient aspect of the case. The P.C. police censor the facts from everyday citizens.

They should be ashamed of themselves.

I, too, find it curious there are so many apologists for the brutalities committed by these sadistic animals.

These attacks only bolster the case for longer fishing lines, more hooks, and wider nets.

May God have mercy on these sharks' sick souls.

When the shark strikes here in the northern county, we probably will not have footage like this. This video of two great white sharks attacking a surfer demonstrates just how dangerous surfing is today:

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=...

Is anybody else tired of people like Garrett justifying these brutal animals' behavior by saying the shark likely believed its victim was a seal or sea lion? Enough with the excuses! Let's call these beasts exactly what they are: cold, calculating, man eating killing machines.

American surfer dies after shark attack off Mexico

Wednesday, April 30, 2008

An American surfer has died after being bitten by a shark off Mexico's Pacific coast earlier this week.
The 24-year-old man was surfing off the isolated Troncones beach when he was attacked by a tiger shark on Monday.

He suffered a 15-inch wound to his thigh and bled to death before he could receive treatment.

The death comes just four days after another fatal shark attack off California's Pacific coast.

The 66-year-old victim of that attack was bitten by a great white shark.
