We are now reaping the rotten fruits of the wacky affirmative action/equal opportunity agenda of the '60's and '70's. Justice Clarence Thomas demonstrates the deleterious effects of this agenda in his autobiographical book "My Grandfather's Son". In California, the effects have taken the form of the citizens being forced to suffer the childish antics of feminists and (for lack of a better word) Mexamericans and Mexifornians at almost all levels of government having a day to day contact with the general public.
The culture in America is corrupt. I have been falsely charged on two occasions within the last seven years with violation of a criminal statute. As a matter of public record, I have pleaded "no contest" to both charges and paid fines because the charges were based upon lies and there was the possibility of a jail sentence. The true facts did not involve any violation of the law and the actual speech involved was protected under the First Amendment.
The first case was brought in Ventura County in 2000 and the Mexican-American, affirmative action Judge Arthur Gutierrez refused to dismiss the charges after my request at the arraignment even though the charge was contradicted by the evidence presented by the State. On the morning I later pleaded "no contest", I drank a glass of vodka beforehand even though I had been sober for some months prior to this time, because that was the only way that I could live with having to accept the consequences for something that I did not do.
The second case this year was preceded by an Order to Show Cause hearing in Ventura on a restraining order brought by a bank whose parent company is a Dutch-based financial institution. In agreeing to the terms of the restraining order, I again avoided further litigation and did not object after it was made clear in the order that there were no threats made. In agreeing to the order I am barred under California law from buying any firearms during the three years duration of the order, which does not affect me personally because as a professed member of the Third Order of St. Francis (secular), I would not own or carry a weapon pursuant to the Rule of the Order of St. Francis.
Then to my surprise I received a notice in the mail to appear for a court hearing in Santa Maria, in Santa Barbara County which is about 100 miles from where I live in Oxnard, California. The case was brought on the basis of Santa Maria police officer Mark Strykker's telephone call to me, even though it was clear that there was no prior court order in effect as required for a violation to exist under the applicable provisions of the statute, and that my intention was not to harass or annoy anyone, something which I would never do. During our conversation, officer Stryyker misrepresented what I had said to him. I told him that my calling the bank employees did not help me. Later in the conversation he sarcastically implied that I had said just the opposite.
The women with whom I spoke in both cases have a lot more to worry about from purveyors of contraception, abortion, and pornography, all of which are given protection by our misguided state and federal judicial systems. So much for girlie men, wimps, and lackey politically correct and politically corrupt cops and DA's in California.
