> A VIGIL FOR THOSE WHO WENT TO JAIL TODAY

Snork.  What is it with leftists and vigils?

"'How come,' I asked Andy, 'whenever something upsets the Left,
 you see immediate marches and parades and rallies with signs
 already printed and rhyming slogans already composed, whereas
 whenever something upsets the Right, you see two members of the
 Young Americans for Freedom waving a six-inch American Flag?'

"'We have jobs." said Andy.'"

Why doesn't that surprise me?  The clock tower is a magnet for
bums, street people, and assorted other ne'er-do-wells.  They
should be dispersed with a water cannon on a regular basis.

Discretion being the better part of valor, perhaps?

It'd better, or there'll be truncheons and tear gas for all.

"Let the good times roll" -- the Cars, 1978

(WTF does "corporate greed" have to do with this?)

When you get baths and jobs and become contributors to 
the commonweal rather than social parasites.  Having
acquired a stake in society, you'll have a valid basis
on which to relate.  Until such time as that comes to
pass, you'll be nothing but vermin, and will be dealt
with accordingly.

But it's people like you who do the stealing in the first
place.

(WTF does plastic packaging have to do with a goddam drum
circle?)

Or who have no business being in a store because they obviously
have no intention of buying anything, who are likely to steal,
and who repel actual paying customers because they're a walking
visual blight and smell bad, besides.

Most likely because of mental illness, or a sense of entitlement
born of a poor upbringing at the very least.

No.  We'll get into our nice cars (which we can afford because 
we have motivation, skills, and jobs) and drive someplace for our
exercise where we won't have to rub shoulders with society's 
ambulatory garbage.

"Queston authority?"  What does the likes of you know about
authority?   It is to laugh.  You've never been responsible
for anything beyond deciding which traffic island to panhandle
from and which cluster of bushes to take a crap behind.

You're revvin' up my go-go-gonads with that sort of talk.

I have plenty of friends, thanks.  If I decide I need another,
I'll consider getting a dog.

Well, if it bothers you so much, leave Santa Cruz and go 
someplace else where you won't have to confront it.  It'd
be a win-win situation: your kind wouldn't have to deal
with hate, and my kind wouldn't have to lay eyes on you
deranged heaps of mobile filth.

I understand that there are a lot of fuckup-friendly 
communities down around the Salton Sea.  Some guy posts
about them a lot in monterey.general; maybe he could 
offer you some pointers and name some possible contacts.

Bon voyage.

You're obviously part of what you perceive to be the problem,
not part of the solution.  Suicide is one remedy you might
consider.

The "Great Spirit?"  What's wrong with just saying "God?"
Do people like you have to resist and turn your backs on
*every* symbol of normal society that you encounter?

Get a life.  Or better yet, lose the so-called "life" that
you already have.  The sooner, the better.
