SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — A controversial new ordinance came into force on Saturday in San Diego requiring landlords to compensate renters when their lease is terminated through no fault of their own.

“This is a good step in the right direction,” said Rafael Bautista, director of the San Diego Tenants Union.

The ordinance, which was brought forward by San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria and Council President Sean Elo-Rivera gives tenants new protections that start on the first day of their lease.

And just like that rentals are converted to condos when people move out.

would this include just not renewing a lease?
You’d have to keep a tenant forever?

“And just like that rentals are converted to condos when people move out.”

When the Americans With Disabilities Act became law the number of jobs available to people with disabilities plummeted. Likewise, government provided lawyers for minorities so they can sue employers led to a reduction in hiring of minorities. It was so bad that our contracts with the military began to specify we had to have a quota of minorities to qualify for award fees. Not only that, but they had to be “highly compensated” minorities. Turns out the Asians didn’t count. It had to be blacks. There are lots of Asians with advanced degrees and darned few blacks with advanced degrees who are also worth the degree they hold. (They do exist. They’re just rare.)

Every new vote-buying right and privilege results in a reaction. So, expect the number of rentals to decline. What they’re trying to do is stop owners from selling their property. I truly wish I’d sold all of my rentals when the market was good. Hindsight.

Just stop doing leases and instead do month-to-month rentals. Or sell your property and get out of California while you still can.

Landlord response … increase rents. Government should be protecting property rights, no degrading them. This is a move towards state controlled property. You know the name for that.

Just to give perspective on property rights and how little the so-called right cares about them: when was the last time, if ever, have you heard a Republican politician speak about eliminating property taxes so citizens can actually own property? The current situation is that you rent from government. Try missing a few rent payments (property tax payments) and see what happens.

Not as far as Deep State is concerned.

Deep State hates competition.

This helps kill it off.

Welcome to Mexico.

Los Campesinos plan to take your property, by whatever means.

The idiots of California let these parasites in because they wanted to screw American workers and get cheap labor.

How cheap will it be when you end up with three familias in your townhouse for the foreseeable future?

If Californians are so stupid, why did Deep State need to shove mail-in down their throats...?

Tenant’s union?

Well, this should certainly increase the amount of “affordable housing” in San Diego!

“darned few blacks with advanced degrees who are also worth the degree they hold. (They do exist. They’re just rare.)”

I worked with hundreds of black people at all levels for more than five decades in several states.

I never met one who was worth the degree they held—not one.

Freepers keep assuring me these folks exist—but they are Unicorns to me—I have to meet them and watch them work to believe it.

“Freepers keep assuring me these folks exist—but they are Unicorns to me—”

I worked with a massive black former college football star who had a degree in software engineering. His speech was peppered with “dis, dat, does and dem.” I knew he was an idiot, but he was a nice guy and we chatted all the time. One day the whole department was in a meeting discussing a failure that had the had the potential to cost the company millions of dollars. We had all the symptoms and he quietly said, “I think it might be “this” and we could test by “whatever.” Nobody else noticed. He was ignored. My hair stood on end. I thought, “damn! That’s brilliant. I wish I’d said that.” He had taken what we knew and made a very logical, and as it turned out correct, assessment. He’d skipped all the intervening steps. A few minutes later an old white manager with no technical background said exactly the same thing, but in better English. I saw him react, but he said nothing.

Later, I told him I understood that he was smart, but as long as he spoke the language of his black background he was not going anywhere. He said, “But I need to be true to who I am.” I said, “Living well is the best revenge. If you want to get ahead you have to talk to white people in a language they respect and ‘dis, dat, dem and dose’ is going to cause them to just ignore you. I realize how smart you are but as long as you talk like that they’ll never notice.”

I made him so mad he didn’t speak to me for weeks. We sat across from one another, so it was awkward. Like usual, I’d say good morning, or see you tomorrow and he’d turn away. Then, one day he came and sat in my visitor’s chair and apologized. His wife agreed with me, and he’d hired a speech coach and signed up for English classes. When I left there, he sounded amazing, and he was running a department with nine employees. (Doing much better than me.)

So, they’re there. But we might not recognize them because that “not acting white” thing is holding them back.

I agree. BS. If I was a Landlord there, everything I rented or leased would instantly become month to month. Screw big gov.

So you stood up and spoke the truth to someone.

But it did take eyes to see and ears to hear............

I was brought up to look at individuals for character, then racism happened.

“not acting white” thing is holding them back.”

I have thought long and hard on this question since I did not want to be one of those bad racists I was supposed to hate.

Experience has taught me the following:

1. IQ follows a normal curve for any group and the black IQ curve is way to the left of the curve of everyone else. That is even more true in Africa than in the US.

2. People of less than average or average intelligence can still make major contributions if they are challenged and test with tough love that tells them the truth about their shortcomings. Most blacks never get that tough love from whites scared of being called racist—or worse, fired or sued. When I think of major improvements I have made in my life it was after someone insulted me and told me how badly I was doing. That was my wake up call to get my act together and fix the problem.

3. What “seals the deal” is the inner lack of self confidence that plagues blacks, particularly professionals. They know they have received special favors. They know they have more responsibility than they know how to handle. It is a brutal way to live your life—where nobody is talking truthfully to anybody else.
