Open Question: Why do most hispanics hate black people?
I'm a bisexual black girl and I'm mostly attracted to latinos and latinas and I thought we were cool because we were both "colored" but now I guess not. I have a new gf who is hispanic and now I'm trying to figure out if I'm in danger or not by dating her or if I can even trust my hispanic friends. read this article and you will know why. By Kristi Huan of Associated Press News Update: A Latino street gang waged a racist campaign to eliminate black people from a Southern California city through attempted murders and other crimes, according to federal racketeering indictments unsealed Thursday. The gangs from L.A. plan to terrorize the Bronx and Staten Island neighborhoods in New York. Five indictments charged a total of 147 members and associates of the Varrio Hawaiian Gardens gang, and federal and local agencies arrested 63 of them by early Thursday, U.S. Attorney Thomas P. O'Brien said at a news conference. He called it "the largest gang takedown in United States history and due to the gang's rebellion, many gangs soon plan to riot and attack law enforcement and trash the neighborhoods similar to the Rodney King episode years ago" but did not elaborate. The indictments detail attempted murder, kidnapping, firearms,arsons, carjackings, narcotics and other charges related to attacks by the gang, which is predominantly Latino and mainly operates in Hawaiian Gardens, a city of about 15,000 in southeastern Los Angeles County. "(Varrio Hawaiian Gardens) gang members take pride in their racism and often refer to the VHG Gang as the `Hate Gang,"' the main indictment states. "VHG gang members have expressed a desire to rid the city of Hawaiian Gardens of all African-Americans and have engaged in a systematic effort to achieve that result by perpetrating crimes against African-Americans because they are similar to the MS-13s and they plan to fight the 18th Street Mexican Mafia too and trash the suburban neighborhoods with great violence just like the Rodney King riots." The indictment alleges a string of attacks on black residents, including a shooting into a home with eight people inside, a fire set in a bedroom and a carjacking of an elderly black woman outside in the parking lot. The indictment does not say if anyone was hit. In another instance, two gang members allegedly chased a black man, yelled a racist epithet at him and then beat him with a garden rake. The same man was later repeatedly stabbed by two gang members, according to the indictment, which charges them with his attempted murder. According to 2000 census data, the latest available, Hawaiian Gardens was roughly 73 percent Hispanic and 4 percent black. The indictments mark at least the second time in less than two years that federal authorities have accused Latino gang members of attacking black residents because of their race. Local officials have tried to downplay racial tensions. The investigation of the Varrio Hawaiian Gardens gang began in June 2005 after the murder of Los Angeles County sheriff's Deputy Luis Gerardo "Jerry" Ortiz. Jose Luis Orozco, a member of the gang, was sentenced to death in 2007 for the killing. Ortiz, 35, died as he searched for Orozco, who had shot and wounded a man while he did yard work. Orozco was later found guilty of attempted murder in that case. "Following the murder of Deputy Ortiz, the Sheriff's Department sought federal and local assistance to help destroy the Hawaiian Gardens gang," O'Brien said. moreOpen Question: Pro Se representing self in court please help?
misdemeanor 14601A suspended license charge, in Los Angeles. The main difference in my case being that mine was suspended due to a brief lapse in insurance, (automatically suspended upon the lapse, due to a DUI conviction in Sept. 2008, my first offence ever). What I really want to know is, is it worth hiring an attorney for this? I've spoken to several, but the problem is, attorneys want you to hire them, so they always make it sound like you're going to jail for sure, etc. etc., unless you hire someone. But during the DUI I was told that same thing, and I didn't hire a lawyer, and I didn't go to jail. I got the exact same fees and sentence as everyone else that day, several of whom did have attorneys. I need an impartial 3rd party, and I don't know anyone personally who's had this charge. I'm told that because it stems from the DUI, it's far more serious than if it had been suspended for another reason. Is this true? And if so, is it possible for me to find out who the prosecutor will be before the court date and try to work out a reduced charge, as my lawyer would do? I know it's a lot of information, and I certainly appreciate the attention if you get a minute. moreResolved Question: Have you heard the news about the Jackson kids, Write your thought about it..?
There is no family feud among the younger members of the Jackson clan. So says matriarch Katherine Jackson's attorney, who has set out to dispel reports that one of Jermaine's kids took after Michael Jackson's youngest son, 7-year-old Blanket, with a stun gun that had to be wrested away from him by a member of the family's security team. All a big misunderstanding, a rep for lawyer Adam Streisand said in a statement to E! News. Not that there wasn't a taser involved... "Two weeks ago, Jermaine Jackson's 13-year old son, Jafar, who lives with his mother Alejandra at the home of Mrs. Katherine Jackson, received a package with a taser he ordered online," the rep said. When Katherine and a security guard heard the sound of said taser being tested—on a piece of paper, Streisand assures—upstairs, they immediately went upstairs and confiscated the weapon. "Mrs. Jackson took control over it and then had it removed from the house," her lawyer continued. "There was no other incident. Blanket Jackson never saw or heard the taser. Neither did Paris Jackson. Prince saw the taser in the possession of security. There is no second taser." "All of the kids are happy, healthy and wonderful and that is Mrs. Jackson's only objective and concern," added Streisand. According to TMZ, agents from the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services showed up at the Jacksons' Encino compound Monday night to investigate the incident and confiscated Jafar's taser.

The suit famed killer OJ Simpson wore when he was acquitted of murder may be going to the Smithsonian Institution. After a court hearing today, and after years of squabbling, lawyers for Simpson and Fred Goldman agreed to donate the "acquittal suit." The judge called Simpson from prison, where he's serving time for armed robbery and kidnapping, to get his approval. Simpson's lawyer said his client agreed, provided that no one make money off the threads. David Cook, attorney for Goldman, says, "The donation to the Smithsonian of the acquittal suit puts front and center the shock to America when justice escaped the Los Angeles courthouse. The memory of Ron Goldman shall be on permanent display." Cook added, "If the suit is the emblematic of justice gone berserk, justice is served." No word if the Smithsonian will accept the suit. - from TMZ.com moreResolved Question: California Schools Collapsing is this The Cost of Illegal Immigration in America?
LOS ANGELES (CN) - A federal class action claims that public school students in Los Angeles are denied the basic education guaranteed by the California Constitution as the district plans to lay off thousands of teachers. Due to California's budget fiasco, the state expects to send out 14,000 reduction-in-force notices to teachers this spring -- nearly 5 percent of the teaching force -- despite its rank as 46th in the nation in per-pupil spending. Students at Samuel Gompers, John H. Liechty, and Edwin Markham Middle Schools, in the city's poorest areas, with the highest concentration of minorities, were hit the hardest, according to the Superior Court complaint. Already "denied the basic educational opportunity guaranteed them by the California Constitution," according the complaint. Those schools expect to lose or already have lost 50 to 70 percent or more of their teachers. Schools in wealthier areas face far fewer layoffs. And the layoffs affect teachers who were prepared and committed to serve the poor, minority, urban students, the class claims. Such schools have a higher percentage of non-English speakers, less access to materials, and more students with learning disabilities than schools in wealthier districts. The class of students and parents say their schools had "successfully recruited a critical mass of teachers committed to staying at the schools and becoming a foundation for an experienced, effective teaching corps." But that has been demolished, the class claims. The class adds that because their schools had the highest concentration of young teachers, they were disproportionately affected by the reduction in force, which dismissed teachers with less experience first. Since layoffs began, the plaintiff students have been taught by a string of substitutes. Some students have had as many as 9 substitutes so far this school year, several of whom do not have credentials in the areas they teach - or no credentials at all, the complaint states. (Schools traditionally rotate such "permanent substitutes," as they must pay them more per day after a certain period, so disrupting students' learning saves the state money.) Many teachers who are assigned to the poor urban schools from the state's "Rehire List" quit after a few days or weeks because they are unable to keep control of classrooms, or they don't want to work in the poor areas, the class claims. "Effective instruction is not merely a matter of whether a teacher is able to teach the course content; it is also a matter of whether the teacher is able to teach that content to the students who attend that school," the complaint states. In the past 5 years, Gompers Middle School, in Watts in South Central Los Angeles, has had fewer than 15 percent of its students perform at or above proficient levels on state achievement testing, the complaint states. Markham Middle School, also in Watts, had only 13 percent of its students score as proficient. California expects to send out 14,000 reduction-in-force notices by this spring, said Ramon Cortines, Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent. California has about 307,000 public schoolteachers. Receiving a RIF notice does not guarantee that a teacher will be laid off; many schools do not complete the hiring process until late August. But receiving a RIF notice makes teachers fear for their job and seek a new one. They become demoralized, distracted and can't focus on teaching, which exacerbates an already devastating situation, the class claims. The class sued California and the Los Angeles Unified School District, alleging violations of equal protection under the Constitution. They seek an injunction, costs and fees. Their lead attorney is Mark Rosenbaum with the American Civil Liberties Union. http://www.courthousenews.com/2010/02/25/25047.htm moreVoting Question: What is a City Attorney Office hearing?
I was involved in a physical altercation with my boyfriend. The police came & made a report. No arrests were made. We went our separate ways. My boyfriend & I reconciled a week after the incident. Two months later, I received a letter from the Office of the City Attorney stating that, "A complaint has been filed with this office stating you have violated Section P242, battery" & that the "matter has been scheduled for a City Attorney office hearing." I am to bring photos, witnesses..present evidence, yet will not be provided a public defender unless I am charged. Did my now ex boyfriend file this complaint? He denies that he did. Or, did the police or city file the complaint? To me the fight was mutual & I had more physical injuries than he did, yet when I call to get a police report they will not let me see it because I am "not the victim". I admitted what I did to the police, but I don't think that my ex did. I am 41, have never been in trouble & live in Los Angeles. He has been in jail three times about 10+ years ago. How likely is it that I will be charged with a misdemeanor or felony or...anything? I have been told this is a "wobbler", could be a felony or misdemeanor. I am so scared & have no money for a lawyer & other legal aid organizations will not help because this is a criminal matter & I am not the victim. Any insight, in general would help. Thank you ahead of time. moreVoting Question: Liability question. Los Angeles. I may have "bumped" another car...?
I may have hit another car going about 1mph. Amazingly enough, I killed their bumper. I have a Yaris and they have an Acura 4x4. My car went below theirs. We decided to go around insurance. I will pay to have the bumper replaced (about $900). So, now, I think I should have them sign a waiver of some sort stating that I am not responsible for any damage claims from here out for their car or the passengers. Where would I find that kind of document for them to sign? I'm hoping there's something online. I'm broke and can't hire an attorney to write one. :( Thank you. moreResolved Question: Does Obama believe it is proper to pay for play?

We should adopt mandatory prison sentences for CEOs hiring illegal aliens February 11, 12:15 AM Illegal aliens arrested at Iowa's Agriprocessors Inc. APIn July 2009, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced that Krispy Kreme Doughnuts Inc. agreed to pay a $40,000 fine for hiring illegal aliens. An inspection by ICE discovered Krispy Kreme hired dozens of illegal aliens at their Cincinnati, OH factory. According to the terms of the agreement, in addition to paying the fine, the doughnut maker promised to revamp their hiring process in order to hire only those authorized to work in this country. No one at Krispy Kreme was sent to prison, and the $40,000 fine, for a company that saw revenues of $384 million in 2009 alone, is downright laughable. Another 2009 investigation, discovered that 1,800 of American Apparel’s workers were illegal aliens, using fraudulent documents. The company which is located in Los Angeles is the nation’s largest clothing manufacturer, and the 1,800 illegal workers represented a third of their workforce. The owners of American Apparel have been outspoken proponents of an amnesty plan for this nation’s illegal alien population. The following is a short list of some of the more high-profile companies recently caught with illegal aliens in their employ: Agriprocessors Inc. - On May 12, 2008, ICE agents executed criminal and administrative search warrants at Agriprocessors, Inc., in Postville, IA, which resulted in the arrest of 389 illegal aliens. 305 of those arrested were also convicted of criminal offenses. CEO Sholom Rubashkin was arrested and charged with federal conspiracy of harboring illegal immigrants and aiding and abetting aggravated identity theft. However, the U.S. Attorney’s office later dropped all 72 charges against him. Pilgrim’s Pride - On April 16, 2007, ICE agents arrested 311 illegal aliens working at five Pilgrim’s Pride sites. Of the 311 arrested, 91 were charged with other criminal violations. Del Monte Produce - On June 12, 2007, ICE agents arrested 168 illegal alien employees at their Portland, OR facility. In addition to the illegal workers, 13 managers and other workers were arrested and charged with various crimes including selling Social Security cards. Swift and Company - On Dec. 12, 2006, ICE agents arrested 1,297 illegal aliens at six Swift meat processing factories in six states. 274 of those arrested were also charged with other criminal offenses. Smithfield Foods - After ICE agents raided the Tar Heel, NC plant and arrested 21 illegal alien workers, 500 workers with fake Social Security numbers were promptly fired from the factory. Another raid in August 2007, netted 28 more illegal aliens, all were from Mexico, Guatemala, and Honduras. Whether it is a landscaping company run-out of someone’s den in Cicero, IL; a 30-unit independent hotel in Virginia Beach, VA; or a corporate giant such as Tyson Foods Inc., once caught with illegal aliens in their employ, the head of that company should spend the next ten years of their life in prison. Additionally, all of that company’s profits made during the period they employed illegal aliens should be seized, with the money going directly to help pay for border enforcement. Instead of simply rounding-up the illegal workers (many of whom will not even be deported as a result), and focusing on low-level company employees for prosecution, if there is to be any…We need to begin placing leg irons on the CEOs of companies who make a practice of hiring illegal aliens. If we arrested these traitors in their walnut paneled offices, and perp-walked them into court for all to see, it would not only punish those who are truly responsible for the illegal replacement of the American worker, but send a powerful message to corporate America…Hire illegal aliens, and you will lose everything you have! We must demand that our lawmakers see to it that American companies, actually hire American workers…not invaders. Of course, those same lawmakers will first have to extract themselves from the hip pockets of many those companies. moreResolved Question: American citizens, what is your opinion on this?
Illegal alien lawsuits continue to clog the courts in California February 9, 9:27 AM Well-funded illegal alien activists in Southern California have found a new way to attack Americans fighting for secure borders and enforcement of current immigration laws. The fight has moved from the streets where they wave the their Mexican flag to America's civil courtrooms. “Allow me to understand this correctly. Illegal aliens, people who have committed a crime by entering this country illegally, and who continue to commit additional crimes by using counterfeit documents to project a status they are not entitled to, are suing cities and citizens for "disrupting their RIGHT to work in the US, even though they have no such right? If any immigrant "rights" organization or other advocacy group is responsible for the filing of such suits, either directly or indirectly, they should be counter claimed against for abuse of process and malicious prosecution. It's time for the good citizens of this country to fight back through the courts,” said retired ICE Agent John Sampson who now runs CSI Consulting and Investigations. The beef about an upcoming lawsuit in San Diego against Jeff Schwilk, founder of the San Diego Minutemen, stems from a violent attack on Los Angeles anti-illegal immigration activist John Monti in November 2006 at the Rancho Penasquitos day-labor site in San Diego. “Controversial San Diego attorney Daniel Gilleon was hired by La Raza operatives more than three years ago to go after San Diego Minutemen and other pro-security activists,” says Schwilk. Monti had gone to the infamous makeshift hiring site to photograph the day laborers and the law-breaking employers hiring illegal workers. “It is still a felony to hire illegal aliens in the U.S. and studies have shown that almost all day laborers are illegal aliens from Latin America, Schwilk explains. While photographing the street-side hiring process, Monti was suddenly jumped from behind by at least seven Hispanic men. “They punched him, tried to steal his professional camera, and pushed him into the busy boulevard. Several passersby’s witnessed the attack and called 911. When police arrived two minutes later, they found a bloody and shaken Mr. Monti,” witnesses reported. Once the police were called to the scene, all of the attackers had made a run for it. Luckily, Monti photographed many of the laborers prior to the attack and was able to show San Diego Police Department. The next day the victim, Monti, sent the same pictures via email to local San Diego activists so they could call the police if the suspects returned to the day labor site where they usually look for employment every day. At this point Schwilk received the pictures and forwarded them to his local law enforcement contacts and other concerned residents in the area. Their claim was defendants were disseminating pictures of the suspects with Monti's statement and pointed out that they were wanted for questioning by SDPD regarding day-labor site scuffle. The flyer indicated if anyone had any information about the incident to phone the police. Police records show the suspects were being sought for questioning and most of them were eventually found and questioned. No charges against the suspects were ever filed, as they all, not surprisingly, claimed that Monti attacked them first. According to Schwilk, local illegal alien activists were seen speaking with the suspects soon after the attacks. “Witnesses who saw Monti being attacked and beaten were ignored by investigators and the city attorney, who were under extreme pressure from the so-called ‘Mexican mafia’ to protect the suspects (most of them Mexican citizens) from prosecution,” Schwilk contends. Fox News' and Monti's lawsuits were eventually dismissed or settled, but Schwilk demanded a trial to prove that this was just another unfounded, frivolous lawsuit and malicious prosecution meant to harass and silence those who oppose illegal immigration. This defamation suit also accuses Schwilk of putting up Monti's "wanted posters" in the area around the day labor site - a charge Schwilk denies. Schwilk and a few other concerned citizens did use Monti's pictures to identify two of the suspects standing at the sidewalk hiring area three days after the attack. "When we saw two of the suspects back at their sidewalk loitering area, we immediately called SDPD. The lead detective of the nearby division came to the scene and explained to us that they had already questioned and released those two men and that an arrest had been made," Schwilk said. “The officers refused to elaborate further, but they told us they were fully investigating the assault on Monti and hoped to bring all of the guilty day laborers to justice.” The lead attorney in this so-called lawsuit is Dan Gilleon. In emails from Gilleon obtained by the Examiner, Gilleon repeatedly seems to be asking Schwilk to settle the case over the past year. In the most recent email senIn the most recent email sent on Feb. 6, Gilleon again offers to Schwilk, "If you want to settle, we'll take $1,000 for each plaintiff, cash now, or $10,000 each in stipulated judgments." Schwilk has repeatedly told the plaintiff’s attorney Gilleon that he has no intention of settling this case because he is the victim not the other way around. In addition to last minute attempts to avoid taking this case to trial, Gilleon failed to depose Schwilk for 2 1/2 years and recently convinced the judge to allow a last-minute deposition just days before the trial is set to commence. In a voicemail message from Gilleon, he declined to comment on this pending case. However he claims there is a new lawsuit pending against Schwilk. However, court records show no new lawsuits have been filed. Schwilk, who is now defending himself, says he strongly opposes a deposition at this late date because he believes Gilleon lied to the judge about trying to depose him in October. moreResolved Question: How can someone find a really good attorney?

The lawsuit filed against Costa Mesa in U.S. District Court comes after police dressed in plainclothes posed as employers in September and arrested a dozen workers, sparking the ire of immigrant rights groups. It's the latest in a series of lawsuits filed by day labor advocates against California cities that limit workers' right to solicit employment on street corners. Advocates said laborers have a constitutional right to free speech and cities can't bar them from seeking employment and simultaneously let activists wave signs against the Iraq war. "Our core constitutional principles of equality and freedom demand that a day laborer enjoy the same right to free expression as a political activist or a member of a charitable group," Belinda Escobosa Helzer, a staff attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California, told reporters at a press conference Tuesday. Costa Mesa's city attorney did not immediately return messages seeking comment. The city located 35 miles southeast of Los Angeles passed the ordinance banning work solicitation in 2005. Costa Mesa also shut down a labor center where workers previously congregated and stepped up immigration enforcement by partnering with federal agents. It is the eighth federal lawsuit filed in California by the ACLU and Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund over such ordinances in the last 12 years, Escobosa Helzer said. The previous lawsuits have settled or been won by workers, she said. One was appealed and is pending a ruling by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The lawsuit comes as day labor advocates said they have seen more American citizens lining up at labor centers around the country because of the recession. Workers in Costa Mesa said they had yet to see Americans join them, but labor centers elsewhere in Southern California have. "It is a rogue city in terms of protecting civil rights," said Pablo Alvarado, executive director of the National Day Laborer Organizing Network, which is also representing the workers. On Tuesday, two dozen workers and their supporters marched in Costa Mesa to voice their opposition to the ordinance. "They don't want us to be on the corner and we just want to work to sustain our families, and ourselves," said Jose Anaya, a Mexican immigrant who has sought work as a day laborer in Costa Mesa for the last three years. http://www.mercedsunstar.com/Nation/story/1295957.html Why are these places given illegals full instant US citizenship rights but without requring them to be actual citizens with legal documents stating by law they are allowed to work here legal/illegal does it matter anymore to them ?

Can they do this?
I live in a city where a city council member has been indicted on 9 counts of bribery. She is currently out on bail for 250k. There is also a multimillion dollar settlement the city will be paying a builder on the other side of the bribery case. (Basically a builder bought land, and the city council member asked for a free condo and took money from this builder for bribery). There's bank accounts and phone records backing up the bribery case. ANYWAY, many people from the community want to do a recall on this city council member. We are following the recall guideline. But, we wanted to SERVE this city council member the notice of intention to recall at the city council meeting. We contacted the Los Angeles County Elections Division and asked if legally we could serve her during a meeting. We didn't want to make any mistakes and wanted to double check this. I was told that we would have to contact the city attorney in our city and get that answer from them. A call went in to the city attorney who REFUSED to give us that information. Instead we were old that our own attorney would have to give us that information and that the city attorney is hired just for the city. Why would the LA County Elections Division tell me to call the attorney then? I thought maybe different areas had different rules and this should be public information, IMO.Good idea... I just thought a city attorney should know this information... I thought citieis have different policy. I just wanted to contact them to see if we had a policy against it. moreResolved Question: what kind of attorney would you go to adopt a child?

Obama: Where have all his records gone? Footprints of president's own history either vanish or remain covered up Occidental College records Obama arrived at Occidental College, a small liberal arts school in Los Angeles, Calif., in the fall of 1979. He only briefly mentions the school in his 1995 memoir, "Dreams from My Father." Obama attended the school on a scholarship. Some question whether the financial aid he received was reserved for foreign students. Financial records have not been released. In a legal action, handled largely by Gary Kreep of the U.S. Justice Foundation, officials at Occidental College were served with a demand to produce records concerning Barack Obama's attendance there during the 1980s because they could document whether he was attending as a foreign national. Kreep petitioned the college with a demand for its records concerning Obama. Occidental College library "The gravamen of the petition is the question as to whether United States Senator Barack Hussein Obama, of Illinois, is eligible to serve as president of the United States pursuant to the requirements for that office in the United States Constitution," he wrote. "The records sought may provide documentary evidence, and/or admissions by said defendant, as to said eligibility or lack thereof." College officials then contacted Obama's lawyers, who argued to the court that the election was over and that future concerns should be addressed to Congress. The motion stated that the records, which could reveal on what name Obama attended classes at Occidental and whether he attended on scholarship money intended for foreign students, "are of no relevance to this moot litigation." The motion also claimed the petitioners failed to serve the subpoena properly. "The subpoena directed to Occidental College should therefore be quashed. Alternatively, this court should issue an order directing that the deposition of the custodian of records of Occidental College not take place," the firm working on Obama's behalf stated. "The central issue in this lawsuit … is whether any Respondent had a legal duty to demand proof of natural born citizenship from Democratic Party's nominee," the motion said. "None of the documents sought by petitioners could possibly assist in answering this question." A judge granted a motion to quash the subpoena. "Obama's attorneys bent over backward to block us," Kreep told WND. "Obama doesn't want anyone to see those records. He's trying to hide them." moreResolved Question: Ahh Starbuck you've done it again?
This is what I started and California will take back the state from radical environmentalists. November elections will see a lot of this hoax just disappear and guess what the world will still be here going through its natural processes. Hopefully this will end these radicals reign for a long time. (12-20) 04:00 PST Copenhagen - -- Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and a swarm of California officials came to the U.N. climate summit last week to brag about their state's accomplishments and show foreigners that it is the cutting edge of U.S. action to curb emissions. But like President Obama, they got caught in a train wreck of discord in the 13-day meeting that ended Saturday, as the 193 nations present agreed only to "take note" of a U.S.-brokered, nonbinding statement of intentions that glossed over the world's differences on who should shoulder which responsibilities in the fight against climate change. The diplomatic clash set up a catch-22 for California. The inconclusive results of the climate negotiations have made the state's leadership in climate policy all the more important. California's aggressive actions on auto emission standards, renewable energy, building weatherization and solar panels are encouraging other states and cities in the United States and around the globe to plunge ahead with their own similar policies. But the stalemate in Copenhagen may also increase the political risk in California, where resistance to the state's climate policies is gathering force. "A train wreck always raises concerns," said Sen. Fran Pavley, D-Agoura Hills (Los Angeles County), who wrote the state's landmark climate-change law in 2006 and was one of the state's leaders in Copenhagen. "It fuels the argument that because of the recession we can't move forward," she said. "The opposition has used the recession to try to do a general rollback, and they may do that here with this." Pavley and other state officials worry that failure of the U.N. climate negotiations will embolden opponents who hope to roll back California's climate policies in next year's election. Ballot measure Conservatives, led by Assemblyman Dan Logue, R-Linda (Yuba County), Rep. Tom McClintock, R-Granite Bay (Placer County), and anti-tax advocate Ted Costa, have submitted to the attorney general an initiative for the November ballot that would freeze the state's compliance with its own climate mandate, the 2006 law known as AB32. GOP gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman has pledged to suspend compliance with the law immediately if elected. "People who are trying to use AB32 in next year's election will use any negative result out of Copenhagen," said Mary Nichols, chairwoman of the California Air Resources Board, the powerful agency that is drawing up the web of regulations that will enforce the bill. "They already believe they've caught something they can use to get people to the polls." California officials have been traveling to climate summits and other diplomatic venues for several years to boast about their track record. By nearly any standard, their pride is well earned. The state is viewed far and wide as a leader in climate policies such as AB32. In the past year, Schwarzenegger has signed several climate agreements with foreign state, provincial and municipal governments, including: -- An agreement with 10 other states in Brazil, Indonesia and the United States to work jointly to protect tropical forests, possibly creating tradeable offsets for California's cap-and-trade program. -- A partnership with the U.N. Development Program to offer technical assistance to Africa for low-carbon development. -- A partnership with Jiangsu Province in China to share policy know-how and to cooperate on technology. It is the first state-level agreement between China and the United States to work together to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. But the crucial phase comes next year, when the air board must release its plans to implement AB32, which is intended to reduce the state's greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. "If this conference does not get a strong agreement, some will say that Copenhagen has failed, that we talk grandly but we are fooling ourselves," and that much like in the fairy tale, the emperor has no clothes, the Republican governor told a news conference Tuesday. "Perhaps the real success is to give us the opportunity to think differently again. Perhaps the success comes in realizing that something different needs to be done and in fact is already being done." Many experts agree. "AB32 is a real leadership issue," said Peter Miller, senior scientist at the Natural Resources Defense Council in San Francisco. "Now that the federal process has slowed, California is more important. It's the same here in Copenhagen. If the forward movement slows, there will be more weight on the sub-national actors." Some studies show that approximately half the overall U.S. emisGreen eggs, they are already out of money. Next year the state will again be short by 21 billion. There is no more help coming, the state will go broke as it should. The average state worker now makes twice as much money as the private sector and the liberals have turned it into a real mess. moreResolved Question: Is this legal America appeal Aiding and abetting with sales that benefits fired illegal aliens?
Is this legal America appeal "Justice for illegals Immigrants sales benefits fired illegals with either fake, made up or stolen documents ?It was a holiday sale for a singular group of beneficiaries -- illegal immigrants who had been thrown out of work. "It makes me feel less guilty for buying all this stuff," said Dolores Arellano, 19, one of more than 1,000 shoppers who thronged Saturday to the parking lot of American Apparel in downtown Los Angeles. The trendy, L.A.-based clothier sponsored the "Justice for Immigrants" event to benefit some 1,600 employees let go in recent months after federal inspections uncovered discrepancies in their immigration documentation. All the proceeds from the sale will go to the families of the dismissed workers and to organizations representing immigrants, said Peter Schey, an attorney for American Apparel in the immigration case. American Apparel has been a strong proponent of changes in immigration law that would allow many illegal immigrants to attain lawful status. One of its bestselling items is a T-shirt bearing the Legalize LA logo, a motto that also appears on a massive banner adorning the firm's plant in the garment district. Saturday's pre-Christmas sale featured discounts of up to 85% on shirts, sweaters, dresses and sundry other items. The crowd was larger than expected, and workers were constantly carting in boxes of new clothing to be placed on racks and bins spread across the parking lot, flea-market style. Some shoppers waited more than an hour to get in; later, they faced a half-hour wait to pay. The policy was cash only, no returns. Some shoppers were on board with the sale's pro-immigrant thrust. "You're buying things at a good price, but it's for a good cause," Robyn Ybarra, 22, said as she and friends picked through the racks. "I'm for immigration reform." Others seemed more attracted by the prices than the charity. "Everybody's entitled to their opinions, but I feel people should come here legally and by the rules, like we did," said Sahara Ayineh, 19, who said she emigrated from Iran with her family. Her sister, Saba Ayineh, said the prices were favorable compared with those at retail stores. "American Apparel is usually over-priced," she said after purchasing an armful of new clothes. "This is more reasonable." Among the crowds picking through the bins were American Apparel employees and friends of the dismissed workers. "Many of our colleagues have lost their jobs, so it's good to know this will be a help for them," said Carmen Garcia, 37, a native of El Salvador. "It's very hard for them to find jobs now." Although the Obama administration has mostly ended the high-profile work-site immigration raids endorsed by the Bush White House, it has stepped up federal document audits of companies and workers. Firms found to have workers whose documentation does not match official records may be subject to sanctions if they don't act. Supporters call the audits a humane way to enforce immigration law, without the disruption of raids. But critics call the audits inhumane "desktop raids" that still force low-income immigrants out of work. http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-apparel20-2009dec20,0,5888971.story moreResolved Question: "Supreme Court will decide appeal of Christian student group". What do you think the verdict should be?
In summary: According to the attorney for the group - the Christian Legal Society - a Christian group should not be forced to "abandon its identity" in order to win campus recognition. "Public universities shouldn't single out Christian student groups for discrimination". According to the law school's attorney, Christian students are entirely free to meet informally on campus. "The real question is whether a law school is obliged to subsidize a group with student fees that is committed to discriminating against some students."

My sister is an abused victim who has four children. She finally divorced her husband that always abused her and the children while he was in jail for one year. When the torture of the divorce was over she found a place to live with her children while on well fare but still had social services on her ass because both her and the kids were abused. Recently she was unable to pay for the water bills and social services took her children away when they found out at a surprise visit at her home. When they took the kids away my sister tried to explain to her that she was scheduled to go to my parents house the following day but they still took the kids. Now she doesn't qualify for well fare anymore and was forced to leave the house. She is currently living in a homeless shelter while still fighting for her kids with social services. The problem is the actual social worker treats her like a criminal! She calls her names and never fills out the referral that she needs for a class called domestic violence or something like that. She has to do that class according to her case plan in court. But how can she regain her children if that social worker never complies? I have spoken to the supervisor and made several consumer complaints but they are all just buddies at work I assume and aren't helping us at all! I don't have the money to hire an attorney for her, and I wish to help her but I am lost and don't know what to do anymore when even the supervisor and manager aren't listening. It hurts to hear my sister cry over her children, she is a great mother and doesn't deserve this, please any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. PS. I live many states away from her, she is residing in the county of Los Angeles in California. Also, she was never given an interpreter and was denied one when requested by the judge because they do not have a Dutch interpreter but she doesn't know what is going on in court, this is why I am trying to help her. moreResolved Question: How to get rid of my county's District Attorney?

A Mexican national living in Whittier was arrested Tuesday at the U.S.-Mexico border in an ongoing federal crackdown on passport application fraud, which has netted 11 other arrests over the past three weeks. Alma Huerta, 40, was indicted by a federal grand jury in Los Angeles on Oct. 21 on charges of using a false identity to obtain a passport in 2000 and using that document in an attempt to open a bank account, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office. A total of 20 defendants have been charged with making false statements in relation to passport applications. Authorities are searching for eight fugitives, prosecutors said. The sweep stems from findings by the Diplomatic Security Service's Los Angeles office that saw a 30 percent increase from 2007 to 2008 in passport fraud cases, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office. Among those arrested: -- Sergio Samonet, 48, a Cuban citizen who resides in South Gate, who allegedly stole the identity of his ex-wife's mentally handicapped son and used that identity to obtain a U.S. Passport. Samonet was convicted in 2005 on state charges related to his use of the same stolen identity, and he was subsequently ordered deported from the U.S. by an immigration court; -- Piyamas Jeerapaet, 41, of Burbank, who allegedly using her position as a U.S. Postal Service employee to help her brother, a Thai citizen, obtain a passport in a false identity. Jeerapaet pleaded not guilty last week in Los Angeles federal court and is scheduled to go to trial on Dec. 29; -- Francisco Martinez, 67, a Mexican national who was living in Oxnard, was arrested for allegedly assuming the identity of a deceased individual to obtain a U.S. passport in 2001 and to apply for a U.S. Passport Card in 2008. The investigation allegedly found that Martinez had a criminal history related to the sale of narcotics and had previously been deported from the United States. Martinez, who is also charged with illegal re-entry after deportation, pleaded not guilty in Los Angeles last week and is scheduled to go to trial on Dec. 22; -- Jose Tejada, 39, a citizen of El Salvador who was residing in Los Angeles, was arrested for allegedly attempting to renew a passport he had already obtained under a false identity in 1995.

George W. Bush The White House, USA EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE: LAW ENFORCEMENT: I was arrested in Kennebunkport, Maine, in 1976 for driving under the influence of alcohol. I pled guilty, paid a fine, and had my driver's license suspended for 30 days. My Texas driving record has been "lost" and is not available. MILITARY: I joined the Texas Air National Guard and went AWOL. I refused to take a drug test or answer any questions about my drug use. By joining the Texas Air National Guard, I was able to avoid combat duty in Vietnam. COLLEGE: I graduated from Yale University with a low C average. PAST WORK EXPERIENCE: I ran for U.S. Congress and lost. I began my career in the oil business in Midland, Texas, in 1975. I bought an oil company, but couldn't find any oil in Texas. The company went bankrupt shortly after I sold all my stock. I bought the Texas Rangers baseball team in a sweetheart deal that took land using taxpayer money. With the help of my father and our right-wing friends in the oil industry (including Enron CEO Ken Lay), I was elected governor of Texas. ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS GOVERNOR OF TEXAS: I changed Texas pollution laws to favor power and oil companies, making Texas the most polluted state in the Union. During my tenure, Houston replaced Los Angeles as the most smog-ridden city in America. I cut taxes and bankrupted the Texas treasury to the tune of billions in borrowed money. I set the record for the most executions by any governor in American history. With the help of my brother, the governor of Florida, and my father's appointments to the Supreme Court, I became President after losing by over 500,000 votes. ACCOMPLISHMENTS AS PRESIDENT: I am the first President in U.S. history to enter office with a criminal record. I invaded and occupied two countries at a continuing cost of over one billion dollars per week. I spent the U.S. surplus and effectively bankrupted the U.S. Treasury. I shattered the record for the largest annual deficit in U.S. history. I set an economic record for most private bankruptcies filed in any 12-month period. I set the all-time record for most foreclosures in a 12-month period. I set the all-time record for the biggest drop in the history of the U.S. stock market. In my first year in office, over 2 million Americans lost their jobs I'm proud that the members of my cabinet are the richest of any administration in U.S. history. My "poorest millionaire," Condoleeza Rice, has a Chevron oil tanker named after her. I set the record for most campaign fund-raising trips by a U.S. President. I am the all-time U.S. and world record-holder for receiving the most corporate campaign donations. My largest lifetime campaign contributor, and one of my best friends, Kenneth Lay, presided over the largest corporate bankruptcy fraud in U.S. History, Enron. My political party used Enron private jets and corporate attorneys to assure my success with the U.S. Supreme Court during my election decision. More time and money was spent investigating the Monica Lewinsky affair than has been spent investigating one of the biggest corporate rip-offs in history. I presided over the biggest energy crisis in U.S. history and refused to intervene when corruption involving the oil industry was revealed. I presided over the highest gasoline prices in U.S. history. I changed the U.S. policy to allow convicted criminals to be awarded government contracts. I appointed more convicted criminals to administration than any President in U.S. history. I created the Ministry of Homeland Security, the largest bureaucracy in the history of the United States government. I've broken more international treaties than any President in U.S. history. I am the first President in U.S. history to have the United Nations remove the U.S. from the Human Rights Commission. I withdrew the U.S. from the World Court of Law. I refused to allow inspectors access to U.S. "prisoners of war" detainees and thereby have refused to abide by the Geneva Convention. I am the first President in history to refuse United Nations election inspectors (during the 2002 U.S. election). I set the record for fewest number of press conferences of any President since the advent of television. I set the all-time record for most days on vacation in any one-year period. After taking off the entire month of August, I presided over the worst security failure in U.S. history. I garnered the most sympathy for the U.S. after the World Trade Center attacks and less than a year later made the U.S. the most hated country in the world, the largest failure of diplomacy in world history. I have set the all-time record for most people worldwide to simultaneously protest me in public venues (15 million people), shattering the record for protest against any person in the history of mankind. I am the first President in U.S. history to order an unprovoked, pre-emptive attack and the military occupation of a sovereign nation.

News that the state will cancel the car registrations of possibly thousands of undocumented immigrants has caused panic and created rumors among those living in central Ohio. Before Aug. 24, a loophole in the state Bureau of Motor Vehicle's policy allowed illegal immigrants to register cars in their names by using a power-of-attorney form, even if they didn't have a driver's license. The Ohio Department of Public Safety closed the loophole after delaying a crackdown on possibly fraudulent registrations for more than a year. After The Dispatch reported on the delay, the bureau sent letters at the beginning of October to more than 47,000 people statewide whose vehicle registrations didn't list a Social Security number or Ohio driver's license or ID number. The state gave them until Dec. 9 to prove residency at a local BMV and pay $3.50 or have their registration canceled. The change in policy was not aimed at a particular population, said BMV spokeswoman Lindsay Komlanc. "We have a responsibility to confirm that every document we use is verifiable." Not everyone who received a letter was an immigrant, she added. But the impact on undocumented immigrants and their families - many of whom are Latino - will be severe, said Julia Alachan, who came to Columbus from Honduras in 2000 and volunteers with local Latin soccer leagues. Illegal immigrants, like many other central Ohio residents, rely on their cars to get to and from work and school, she said. "It's not like in New York or Los Angeles where a bus is coming every four or five minutes. There isn't other transportation." Concern over the new policy has sown seeds of misinformation within a community already isolated by a language barrier, cultural differences and fear of deportation. http://www.columbusdispatch.com/live/content/local_news/stories/2009/11/01/immigrant_fears.html?sid=101 moreResolved Question: What happens after the preliminary hearing in a murder trial?

http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20091028/pl_nm/us_usa_healthcare_option SUPPORT BROAD IN U.S. FOR PUBLIC HEALTHCARE OPTION PHOENIX (Reuters) – Including a government-run insurance option in a U.S. healthcare bill has split lawmakers in the Democrat-controlled U.S. Congress, but support for it remains broad on the streets of U.S. cities, voters and pollsters say. On Monday, Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid included a "public" option in the Senate's bill as the best way to lower costs and create competition. "When you have no competition, the prices keep going up and up ... the public option is going to force them to change, to bring down their prices -- hopefully," said Phoenix mobile home salesman Bill Zaffer, 61, who backed the measure. Opponents argue that a public option would hurt competition because the government program would have a cost advantage by virtue of a huge member base, but supporters of the public option say there is no real competition without it. Inclusion of a public option has become one of the most contentious issues in the debate on healthcare reform -- President Barack Obama's top domestic priority, which seeks to cut costs, improve care and regulate insurers. Democrats said Reid was still short of the 60 votes needed to overcome procedural hurdles and pass a bill with a public option. Republicans are against the measure, which they say amounts to a government takeover of healthcare which would hurt the private insurance industry. But several polls in recent weeks show support for the option running at between 50 and 61 percent among Americans. Among backers is yoga instructor Suzanne Brownlow, from Atlanta. "It's almost impossible to get insurance. A public option would present me with an opportunity," said Brownlow, 48, who has repeatedly been denied coverage since having a seizure eight years ago, and has been without coverage for year. In Los Angeles, meanwhile, attorney Gary Minevich, 33, who is among some 46 million people in the United States without coverage, said he supported "nationalized" health care. "I haven't had health care in like seven years and I think that if he had passed this a long time ago I'd have been able to see a doctor," he said. But Broc Tooher, 20, was among a minority of Americans who dislike a government-run insurance option, which he felt would impose uniformity. "Insurance should be provided on what you want, and not just all be the same," said Tooher, an operating room assistant in Scottsdale, Ariz. "I think it's a bad idea." GUT RESPONSE A USA Today/Gallup poll released last week found 50 percent backed a public option and 46 percent opposed it, while a CNN poll found 61 percent supported an insurance option administered by the government and 38 percent opposed. While the numbers vary, researchers said they are representative of backing for a government insurance option among Americans. Underlying the support are such factors as difficulty obtaining coverage and the cost of medical care. "You're essentially getting a gut level response to what is a very complex issue, but I think it represents the public view," said Carroll Doherty of the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press. "You see it across a lot of polls with different wording, that there is support for this approach." Nevertheless, one Pew poll last month found that 67 percent of respondents found the healthcare debate difficult to understand -- a complaint common among Americans struggling to make sense of the four lengthy, jargon-ridden versions of healthcare legislation currently in Congress. "I definitely need more information and I need to have it in a form we can understand," said Theresa Frombes, a 51-year-old occupational therapist from Illinois, who was "for some (of the bill) but not all of it." In Phoenix, part-time potter Tim Denne, meanwhile, said he had difficulty reaching an informed view on the healthcare legislation, the Senate version of which alone runs to more than 1,500 pages. "You could get a doctorate in just studying that bill ... it's that thick," he said indicating the breadth of a phone book with his thumb and index finger as he stood at a filling station. "People can say whether they support it or not, but they can't really be in a firm or valid opinion," he added.

Martha Angulo frequently stares at photos of her 17-year-old son, Rene. Her gaze eventually drifts toward a box of his ashes. She talks to them, but they don't talk back. Rene Angulo was a Carson High School senior who aspired to attend college and was expecting a daughter with his high school sweetheart. He was gunned down on Mother's Day by Victor Rodriguez, 24, a gang member with a violent criminal history who had been ordered to be deported back to Mexico. Deputies said Rodriguez wanted to steal Angulo's Honda, and shot the boy while he was riding in the backseat on U.S. 395 near Bellevue Road. Authorities said that after Rodriguez shot Angulo in the back of the head and torso, he fired two shots at Wayne Nash, whose family watched in horror from inside their car. Nash was shot in the leg, his femoral artery destroyed, after he stopped to help Angulo, who was lying in the street. On Wednesday, Rodriguez told Washoe District Judge Connie Steinheimer that he wasn't in his "right mind" when he shot the men. "I want to take responsibility," he said, "but I'm not going to be up here begging for mercy. I'll do my sentence like a man." Steinheimer sentenced the father of two to the maximum term of life in prison without parole for the first-degree murder of Angulo, and the maximum of 60 years for the attempted murder with a deadly weapon of Nash. She also ordered he pay more than $63,000 in restitution, mostly for Nash's medical bills. Magaly Sanchez had been dating Angulo for five years and is pregnant with his daughter. She said Angulo was her world, and their biggest wishes were to attend prom together and graduate. The day he was killed was "my worst living nightmare of my life. All my dreams fell apart," she said. Sanchez, Angulo's mother and his brother, Mario ,pleaded with Steinheimer to give Rodriguez the maximum punishment and praised Nash for trying to help Angulo. Chief Deputy District Attorney Dan Greco said this case is an example of the weakness of the country's borders. He said Rodriguez has been in the criminal justice system since he was 18 years old. In 2001, he was arrested for being an illegal immigrant and was ordered deported. In 2003, he was charged with assault with a firearm, burglary and criminal threat charges in Los Angeles. Before he was sentenced, he fled to Northern Nevada and in 2004, was arrested for being an accessory to murder in Douglas County. Greco said he received probation in both the Nevada and California cases. "If he would have obeyed the judge's deportation order and not have returned to the country, Rene Angulo would still be alive and Mr. Nash would not have been injured," Greco said. "This is the seventh time I've had to tell a family how sorry I am that their son was the victim of the murder and their killer was an illegal alien. "It's sad and tragic, but our borders are not secure." Nash said he felt blessed to be alive. He also said he has been financially devastated by medical bills. http://www.rgj.com/article/20091022/NEWS/910220354/1321/news moreResolved Question: any one knows good legalmalpractic attorney in los angeles?

Obama Won't Seek to Arrest Medical Pot Users - Federal Prosecutors Will Be Told It Is Not a Good Use of Their Time to Arrest People Who Use or Provide Medical Marijuana in Strict Compliance with State Laws, Officials Say AP Monday, October 19, 2009 WASHINGTON -- The Obama administration will not seek to arrest medical marijuana users and suppliers as long as they conform to state laws, under new policy guidelines to be sent to federal prosecutors Monday. Two Justice Department officials described the new policy to The Associated Press, saying prosecutors will be told it is not a good use of their time to arrest people who use or provide medical marijuana in strict compliance with state laws. The new policy is a significant departure from the Bush administration, which insisted it would continue to enforce federal anti-pot laws regardless of state codes. Fourteen states allow some use of marijuana for medical purposes: Alaska, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington. California is unique among those for the widespread presence of dispensaries -- businesses that sell marijuana and even advertise their services. Colorado also has several dispensaries, and Rhode Island and New Mexico are in the process of licensing providers, according to the Marijuana Policy Project, a group that promotes the decriminalization of marijuana use. Attorney General Eric Holder said in March that he wanted federal law enforcement officials to pursue those who violate both federal and state law, but it has not been clear how that goal would be put into practice. A three-page memo spelling out the policy is expected to be sent Monday to federal prosecutors in the 14 states, and also to top officials at the FBI and the Drug Enforcement Administration. The memo, the officials said, emphasizes that prosecutors have wide discretion in choosing which cases to pursue, and says it is not a good use of federal manpower to prosecute those who are without a doubt in compliance with state law. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the legal guidance before it is issued. "This is a major step forward," said Bruce Mirken, communications director for the Marijuana Policy Project. "This change in policy moves the federal government dramatically toward respecting scientific and practical reality." At the same time, the officials said, the government will still prosecute those who use medical marijuana as a cover for other illegal activity. The memo particularly warns that some suspects may hide old-fashioned drug dealing or other crimes behind a medical marijuana business. In particular, the memo urges prosecutors to pursue marijuana cases which involve violence, the illegal use of firearms, selling pot to minors, money laundering or other crimes. And while the policy memo describes a change in priorities away from prosecuting medical marijuana cases, it does not rule out the possibility that the federal government could still prosecute someone whose activities are allowed under state law. The memo, officials said, is designed to give a sense of prosecutorial priorities to U.S. Attorneys in the states that allow medical marijuana. It notes that pot sales in the United States are the largest source of money for violent Mexican drug cartels, but adds that federal law enforcement agencies have limited resources. Medical marijuana advocates have been anxious to see exactly how the administration would implement candidate Barack Obama's repeated promises to change the policy in situations in which state laws allow the use of medical marijuana. Shortly after Obama took office, DEA agents raided four dispensaries in Los Angeles, prompting confusion about the government's plans. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/10/19/obama-wont-seek-arrest-medical-pot-users/ moreResolved Question: How can someone find an attorney who specializes in loan modifications without being scammed?
