… so who is allowed to apply?
Now thats good comedy
The more I think about it the funnier that question becomes.🤣 You two should team up!
We all know who is not allowed to apply. Racism at it’s finest.
Complete waste of taxpayers money!
Treat people like you want to be treated.
Problem solved.
Male caucasians over 30 need not apply.
“white male Caucasians need not apply”.
Fixed it for you (unfortunately).
Do you know what Caucasians means,,,,,you dont,huh?
Have someone fix it for you.
So, tell me if I have this figured out: The County Board of Supervisors, feeling that they themselves (AS OUR ELECTED BODY) could not in the normal course of day-to-day operations:
1) handle the gross Lack of Equity in the County ~~ and so, needed to Create a Separate “Equity Committee” to handle ~ ~ ‘Equity’.
2) in addition to Equity, the BOS needed to Create a Separate “Racial Justice Oversight Body” because, apparently, the “Equity Committee” simply could not handle the Gross Lack of ‘Racial Justice kind of Equity’. So, the Equity Committee needs to have their own Sub-sub committee..
Of course, members will be drawn from throughout the Various & Equitable communities.
You cannot make this stuff up. First, they go out and HIRE firms to do FEASIBILITY studies to determine if ~ yet another ~ “committee” might help. OMG!
I just want to know
1)WHEN will the DA hand out EQUITY AND JUSTICE to the hordes of drugged up “Un-housed” and/or illegal migrants sleeping under bridges, or worse yet, shooting up in the parks where it is no longer safe to let our kids play?
2) WHEN will the DA stop the “fully loaded” Swarming Hordes of Thieves who have caused long-term Locally Owned, Franchised, and/or Managed Businesses to have to move, or CLOSE down completely?
WHEN?😡
How about those of us who pay-our-own-way (AND theirs) get our heads together and vote in a little equity and justice for the rest of us?
Anything to keep white guilt alive.

Should be evident to many, the revolving door ain’t workin’
.
If there is no threat of substantial incarceration,
there is no deterrence to criminal behavior
Talk about being racist, this sums it up perfectly.
If you are “interested in serving on the Racial Justice Oversight Body”, then you’re part of the problem.
14 seats.. That is a large number of people to get anything accomplished..
By carefully selecting the members, every vote will probably be unanimous.
So, I guess what I’m reading of this, we need a whole lot more white crime to even out the disparity.
What tells you that ‘it has become more out in the open…” ? The media wants to keep it in the open to maintain/increase viewership and sell more commercials. The politicians, both sides, want to keep it in the open to sway votes. How would I really know it’s “more out in the open” I don’t hear anybody yelling slurs, posting signs or anything.
So I’m guessing property taxes are going up next year to pay for the 14 positions?
What,so this is just cry babies that want no rules for people of color for committing crimes???
So they are saying also that these people have no conscience and no soul?OK…..
To not punish them is to”unburden them from the past”? now i know what she has been babbling about……..
