  • "F&G kept changing the contract, while keeping many of these changes uannounced to SLOSA too often. As for charging memberships in order to shoot at the range, SLOSA did no such thing. SLOSA sold memberships to SLOSA. There was NO requirement to be a SLOSA member to shoot either at the public range, nor at the Action Pistol range, nor on the back ranges for Muzzle loaders, Silhouette, or Cowboy Action. The back ranges were only used for sanctioned and scheduled matches, same with the Action Pistol range. Anyone could participate, and ALL shooters paid the match fee...member or not. All participants were charged a fee for all of the State and World Championship matches held regularly. As for F&G saying SLOSA didn't charge enough, well, exactly what was the going rate? F&G never articulated what was the proper rate to charge! SLOSA only wanted to charge enough to break even on salaries of the Range Masters, target replacement, power/water bills, and maintenance. F&G said no, you have to charge more. F&G put out zero expenditure for maintenance or target repair/replacement. F&G also put out zero expenditure for range improvements, that, arguably, created one of the best ranges for multiple venues on the West Coast. F&G did put up barriers to access, including declaring the dry creek as a "steelhead spawning stream". All the nice steel targets, target revetments, cleaning of the range, lead mining, steel and concrete shooting benches, high end shotgun venues, and the nice archery range with standard targets of arrow catching fiber block, and whimsical dinosaur targets, were all purchased, acquired, or built from scratch by the volunteer members of SLOSA. The Army stated in the contract to the state, that giving the property over to California, it MUST remain completely accessible to the public at all times. Anyone could see, that F&G failed for at least a year, to violate that contract. SLOSA did all they could to keep up with F&G demands. But, when the goalposts kept being shuffled around the field, our team found itself losing the game. Our team, is you and me and all citizens of California."

  • "What we need to learn: •What was really reported on the 911? Some reports say caller said a toy gun. That true? •the breakdown of this guy: unstable? Transient? Drunk? •How much did this replica look like a real gun and was he using to make others think it was indeed real? •why didn’t Jeff clean his lens and reshoot after that pic?"

  • "Why are teachers today so anti American sovereignty?... what happens to them in our universities?... every nation on earth reserves the right to know who is coming into their country and why.... and if you overstay you are booted from their country and could even serve time... Teach our children well people or find a new occupation...."

  • "Simple... ILLEGAL means ILLEGAL #DeportThemAll Boom, more construction jobs, more open housing, classroom space for OUR REAL American children (that we pay high taxes to educate) and infrastructure being used by a known level of American citizens. Simple enforce existing laws and STOP employing the ILLEGALS amongst us. Starve them out."

  • "Most assuredly, the SLOC BOS and the SM city "leaders" were hoping enough time passed that no one would remember the contamination issue. THE most important issue NOW to stave off 3 eyed mutant off-spring of future generations on that spoiled land. Hyperbole? Perhaps but are YOU going to drink that water, as is? Developer money + SLOC BOS and community "leader" evil know no bounds (that cannot be usurped by some back door funding). WE NEED TO SET THE BOUNDARIES OUR WAY, IN OUR COMMUNITIES. SLOC BOS be damned. #takebackyourcommunity The definition of government = WE THE PEOPLE (this simple civic lesson is gratis) #WakeUp NOW!"

  • "It’s interesting how we can wax poetic about Olympic hockey and “coming together as a country,” yet somehow skip right past half the story. If patriotism is the theme, let’s talk about the women too. The 1980 Winter Olympics gets remembered like scripture — the “Miracle on Ice,” coached by Herb Brooks — and it deserves its place in history. But when modern teams compete, the women often dominate internationally, win medals, carry the torch… and still get treated like a footnote. The men’s grit is called heroic. The women’s excellence is treated like background noise. That’s not nostalgia. That’s selective memory. And while we’re on selective memory — celebrating one immigrant family because they fit a tidy narrative, then condemning another group wholesale over one taxi ride? That’s not “critical thinking.” That’s confirmation bias dressed up as common sense. One Cambodian family adapting beautifully doesn’t mean every immigrant story must follow the same timeline or template. One Somali cab driver refusing to transport alcohol doesn’t equate to statewide corruption or cultural decay. That leap isn’t logic — it’s resentment looking for a landing spot. There’s also irony in defending tradition while dismissing why certain words changed. “Squaw” wasn’t removed because people suddenly became fragile. It was changed because Indigenous women themselves spoke up about its history as a slur. Respecting that isn’t weakness. It’s maturity. Growth doesn’t erase history — it refines it. As for patriotism — it doesn’t belong exclusively to one political mood or one era. It doesn’t only show up in men’s locker rooms or during Cold War rivalries. It shows up in women who train just as hard, win just as often, and still fight for equal recognition. It shows up in immigrants who serve in the military, start businesses, or simply raise families with dignity. Real patriotism isn’t nostalgia for a simpler time. It’s the willingness to expand the circle without losing the core. If we’re going to talk about unity, let’s actually practice it — not just when it’s wrapped in red, white, and blue and skates across the ice. You can love your state. You can love your country. You can love Olympic hockey. But if love only flows in one direction — toward the past, toward the familiar, toward the version that makes you comfortable — then it’s not unity. It’s preference. And preference isn’t the same thing as principle."

  • "You do realize that 46% of the founders of Fortune 500 companies are immigrants or their children and 22% of university professors are immigrants. You’re philosophy sounds like a race to bottom for our nation."
