SYSTEM: Please welcome Angel who just joined the chat.
Sungold: Hi Angel
Angel: That is so weird, I was thinking of my dog and made it my nickname...that is too funny ....like my 911 days, I had to talk and type at the same time and my fingers just move and tyoe what I was thinking
Angel: Good morning Sun
Angel: I heard the rain last night, can't see it yet but I am glad it is here
Carl: morning is different then korning.....
Carl: course it could be my fingers are sleepy
Angel: Lol, I agree, hate getting up in the dark
Sungold: I hear our gutters running, but don't see anything yet, still a bit dark here
Sungold: Me too, just does not feel right.
Angel: So can you believe China built a 57-story skyscraper in 19 days?
Sungold: Yes, it will probably fall down
Carl: Want to live there?
Angel: Holy cow, I can't even imagine, they said it is build like lego blocks
Angel: uuuummmm kids knock them down all the time
Sungold: Hummm.....must be fun in an earth quake
Sungold: I heard that Sheriff Tom got a bunch of new toys, Humvee, new boat, helicopter, etc. Anyone know about it?
Angel: I haven't but i bet they were from homeland grants
Angel: I bet Trey Gowdy gets a subpeona
Sungold: Servers came from her husbands office, she said and simply continued using it
Angel: He only wrote two emails, why would he need a server
Sungold: She is devious and works things her way
Angel: I bet it has always been her server
Sungold: I watched her yesterday, did you see one of her assistance practically force her off stage at the end.
Angel: Trey is already saying the emails are missing months of emails from the Bengazi incident
Angel: She must have done a lot of yoga during that incident
Sungold: The questions were already known, it appeared, She was looking for notes in her book
Angel: Ok so what I think the press missed here, Obama found out once again about these email from the same way we all found out about it, from the news
Sungold: Of course they are missing, I bet there were many texts back and forth with that event
Sungold: This will all blow over, like most do.
Angel: Our president finds everything out in the press, thank goodness he watches TV and you would think the press would work harder to keep the president up to date
Angel: I don't think so, i think it is her downfall, not so much now but it will
Sungold: Time to get a few things done back later
Angel: When Gowdy asks for a;; emails during the Bengazi incident, they will get the server....but we all know everything will be recycled
Carl: ,,,,mmmmmmmmmmm['/"[]
Angel: So Carl, I was listening to Vint Stevenson and have to wonder why Kristen Schraeder is going after the busn association, doesn't the council think they are doing good things?
Angel: It may one thing to point out Brown Act compliance but does she really want it dismantled?
Angel: Are you going to have her on? even if it is not a debate

Angel: Where is HUMP Day
ProducerBadBob: The hump day camel spoke at 7:05
Angel: Where was I...lol
ProducerBadBob: I'd rather not speculate
Angel: So funny, I must have been logging on
Angel: How can you blame Obama Carl, He read about hands up don't shoot, it had to be true
Angel: That is how he gets his info, think of what he could do if he had someone reporting this stuff to him.
Angel: Sorry Carl, the kids today don't ever suffer the consequence of their actions.
Sungold: Student council needs some manners taught to them. College kids feeling their oats
Sungold: I'm following a young man doing his first year at Berkeley.
Sungold: He promised his mom and me that he would lay low the first year, and get his bearings, and learn a few things before getting involved in any political stuff
Sungold: So far, so good, and he is even coming home on weekends to keep track of his new puppy.
Sungold: He loves Berkeley, and loves the campus.

Carl: Wow
Joe: when they catch the homeless at a camp, they should tag them before catch and release. That way the next camp can be found :)
Joe: ok, if that's too cold, then add gps trackers to the stuff given to the homeless. Then we can geotrack them, find their routes, see any connection to crime, and find the next camp or concentration.
Sungold: It is rare that they keep the stuff we give them. Look at all the tons of stuff they are picking up
SYSTEM: Please welcome onion_grower who just joined the chat.
Sungold: We see sleeping bags, jackets, shoes all over the place, simply discarded
onion_grower: Gangs in Stockton, Richmond and Oroville are pushing petty criminals to Chico. From Chico, next step is Redding.
Jarhead: Carl, are we going to maintain a satellite in the downtown ????
onion_grower: Redding does not have drive bys like Oroville and South. Eventually, the gangs and drive bys will hit Chico hard.
Sungold: Happy to hear Paoletti is speaking with Blankenship. He was way ahead of his time when he was Chief, and predicted it was just a matter of time before we arrived to where we are.....and here we are!
onion_grower: KRCR7 covers Chico. Tantos herido por cuchillo. Coming soon to a city near you.
Sungold: Question: Is RPD going after grants for specific purposes, such as adding a group of officers to tackle the crimes and transients?
Sungold: Or maybe special equipment they may need to clean up the camps?
onion_grower: Chico and Oroville are our crystal ball showing the future of Redding.
Joe: flame throwers? Eliminates the trash and at the same time removes the underbrush that attracts them?
onion_grower: Crime in Oroville is worse than Chico. It is the county seat where welfare benefits are distributed.

SYSTEM: Please welcome comradeann who just joined the chat.
comradeann: In order to hire more officers we need to look at the benefits. They must be adjusted.
Sungold: He was doing his job....nothing wrong with that
comradeann: pls ask chief how long a new hire needs to work before they are eligible for a full retirement package, including healthcare. Those of us in the private sector have to budget for our retirement and healthcare. Pay the officers enough to allow them to finance their own retirements. Like the real worl
onion_grower: Photo enforcement does not arrest drunk drivers blowing lights and stop signs. Only a human can get them. And a ticket is a chance to do a warrant check and seize vehicles of suspended license drivers.
comradeann: A friend just found three squatters in his parents home. He called 911 and said he had a firearm. The dispatchers were more concerned about him saying he had a gun than they were the creeps cooking and sleeping in his home.
Sungold: Well of course - t hat was the immediate danger
Sungold: Why would firearm be mentioned unless he was already being threatened?
comradeann: OK, he dodged that question. If they retire at 57 and he puts in 30 years will he make pretty much the equivalent of his on duty pay?
comradeann: He was in danger, he had 3 druggies in his parents home. Who is the criminal here?
Sungold: They are, but they teach you in gun classes not to confront. He would be wise to retreat, then call 911 and let the police do the job
Sungold: That is what they are trained to do, the citizen was not trained.
comradeann: Drug treatment programs only work if the addict wants to recover, 30 day wonder programs do not work for those forced in. Also, NA should not be court ordered, it contaminates the environment for those who want to be there.
comradeann: How do you know he isn't trained?Most of the private citizens I know are far more competent shots than the officers who have been involved in some recent shootings. Crap, they unload their guns and hit the victim 4 times.

comradeann: in order to get a timely response you need to mention firearm, sad but true
comradeann: Bottom line, benefits need to be negotiated. Compensation packages for fire and RPD are not financially sustainable. No one wants to look at the Gorilla in the room, time for some honest discussion.
Sungold: OK, just my opinion, however if I knew squatters were in a home I owned, I would not be so foolish as to confront the squatters. Nor would I brandish my weapon to them. That is just nuts. Police are trained to do the proper response
onion_grower: Does Calpers report the amount of income going to other states on 1099R? There was a fun piece titled "Prescott, California" about all the taxpayers who moved to AZ.
Joe: Carl, what event is that? The one with all the guns?
onion_grower: A RPD retiree would get a much better deal by moving to Prescott.
Sungold: They also move to OR, WA, Idaho, and Nevada
comradeann: He entered the home with no knowledge of them being inside. He called 911 immediately.
Carl: Fund raiser for Soverign minds at Win River
Sungold: Time to go...enjoy the rain all.
Joe: ty
comradeann: Yeh, that's great. Pay an unreasonable retirement and then they take their money out of state. Look at the city attorney, I believe he will move out of state after retirement.
onion_grower: If he has a lick of sense.
Carl: He is going to NV
comradeann: I think all public salaries should be frozen, including benefits, until the private sector is comparable.
Sungold: There is a former RPD captain in NV who was retired for a few years and got bored. He is now Chief of Police in Elko and doing a great job
onion_grower: Redflex can't arrest a drunk driver.
comradeann: bully for him, another public double dipper
Joe: red light cameras are a tax that sucks money out of our local economy
Sungold: Why not? At least he is working and paying taxes and serving the p ublic
onion_grower: Reno has great schools. McQueen is on that list of best high schools. My two kids went to McQueen.
Sungold: Look at all the folks who serve in the services and retire out at 40, are they supposed to just sit around the rest of their lives?
comradeann: I have a fundamental problem with double and triple dippers. Maybe he should have signed up to do volunteer work and saved a job for someone who needs it.
comradeann: Not all Reno schools are good, we were looking at re recently and they said all schools are not created equally, buyer beware of certain areas
Sungold: I see nothing wrong with it and think it is a smart way to go. I find fault with those who lay around and reap benefits for NO work
comradeann: Fundamental difference of opinion
Sungold: There are many who can work and choose not to. The person who is willing to work long and hard, even double dippers should not be chastised for it
comradeann: I call it feeding at the public trough
onion_grower: Schools in the reservations are awful in every state. Schools in the neighborhoods with a lot of college graduates are good in every state. CA's best school is Cupertino, has the most National Merit Schoolars. The parents in that district are the best educated in the state.
ProducerBadBob2: So...you would advocate disbanding all tax paid public safety agencies?
ProducerBadBob2: And make all LEO and Fire Private Enterprise?
Sungold: We know a young man who was in the service for over 20 years, retired young and now works for the gov. as a citizen with very classified work. He will retire again. Good for him!
comradeann: Bye, off to raise some hell
