re BART shooting statement: "It's frustrating to us because people are getting upset about what happened..."
It's been what almost 7 days without a statement from the policeman. This is clearly a murder. Get a clue BART and get the checkbook ready.
Civilian oversight is clearly needed over these BART cowboys
Why is Linton Johnson is hiding a murderer?
That guy in Berkeley isn't being fined for growing stuff, he's being fined for unsafe construction practices. Roofs aren't designed to hold as much weight as floors are and a bunch of big containers full of dirt and water is potentially a lot heavier than a normal floor might be designed for.
Yay! I like the big photo on the Extra, Extra, errr, Day Around the Bay wrap-up!
RE: Berkeley Hippie
You create a playground/pantry for rats with an unmanaged compost heap and you wonder why your neighbors narc on you about the unlicensed greenhouse...
