1. City Manager John Patrick Regan's fast-talking used car salesman presentation on 450th planning -- too little, too late?
2. Mummy Cat's "Journey" movie, the City's intellectual property, a work for hire about to be broadcast on a third of the TV stations in America, complete with erroneous statement that Spanish left Florida in 1845, something I asked Dana Ste. Claire to have corrected a year ago.
3. Lack of followup on citizen and Commissioner concerns.
4. Failure to involve people who volunteered at 2007 Kickoff Meeting.
5. Failure to promote New York Times Travel Section and other articles: there has not been a New York Times Travel Section article dedicated to St. Augustine since September 5, 2003.
6. Failure to provide requested details of Tapestry exhibit.
7. Failure to explain how our City managed to offend the Seminole Tribe.
8. Failure to address Federal St. Augustine 450th Commemoration Commission, or violations of Federal Advisory Committee Act in failing to hold open public meetings.
9. Failure to explain lack of public comment on all agenda items, as Commission supposedly approved on December 1, 2014.
10. Failure to discuss management shortcomings leading to second-time pulling of no-bid Yacht Club lease of our Salt Run Community Center.
11. Failure to discuss Sunshine and Open Records concerns about City of St. Augustine-Flagler College Town and Gown Committee.
Enough gooberishness. Enough effrontery, flummery, dupery and nincompoopery. This is our town, our time and our money.
12. Failure to mention their own immoral sordid history...
ReplyDeleteThe City of Saint Augustine Florida is presently ruled by an oppressive city government that owes its existence to engaging in an on going pattern and practice of knowingly and willingly — and openly bragging about — creating a long string of patently unconstitutional repressive Jim Crow laws. Laws that ban Constitutionally guaranteed FREE SPEECH, art, music, newspapers, political opposition, and the homeless from simply asking another human being for a helping hand. These blatantly unconstitutional laws have been selectively enforced by a subservient goon squad police force that uses; intimidation, massive arrests, entering private property without warrants, confiscating, impounding, and trashing into dumpsters lawful newspapers and political protest materials, selectively excessive bail, etc. All of this arrogant lawlessness and violence has been performed under "color of law" with the purpose of terrorizing and instilling fear and compliance in the city's residents. The end result is that the present city government now stands as a self empowered rogue government that stifles, oppresses, and exploits, the resident citizens at will.
This on going pattern and practice of crimes have all been knowingly and willingly committed for the following express purposes; to suppress and eliminate political opposition so as to illegally and immorally control the city government; to demonize and eliminate an entire recognizable class of people (street artists, entertainers, and the homeless — a hate crime) just like blacks were eliminated and suppressed; to eliminate competition so as to control and fix markets; to suppress and control employee wages by limiting opportunity and instilling fear; to steal commonly owned community property for selfish private use and private gain; to raise confiscatory taxes on the residents to fund the city gangster activities; to pay themselves grossly outrageous fat salaries and piggishly lavish retirement packages, etc.;
According to the City Clerk’s office, WILLIAM B. HARRISS receives a retirement check from the City of St. Augustine of $9,367.46 monthly ($112,409.52 per year).
In the process of all of the above the city has been turned into a tacky and soulless shop worn mall where the residents have lost; their rule of law, their freedom, their community center, their playgrounds, their street parking, their mooring fields, their right to the "quiet enjoyment" of their property, their clean healthful air, their once joyous social fabric, their community spirit, etc., and all the while they have been subjected to the unbridled machinations of a co-opted and mean spirited bully police force which in effect functions as a low cost and surly mall security force for the benefit of the <1% self anointed wealthy elite. Talk about transparent burden shifting and bogus indemnification! Sheesh!
Let me be very clear here; these rogue city officials and their knee pad wearing cops have empowered themselves through a pattern and practice of committing gross unlawful violence — all under the "color of law" — against the peaceful citizens of the community, and visitors to the community, that they pretend to serve. As such they are common thug gangster murdering felons, and even though you must obey their so usurped authority — you do not have to, nor should you — respect that usurped authority nor contribute in any voluntary fashion to supporting it.
Yes, that is Saint Augustine's REAL HISTORY!
