Maybe it's time for the United States Attorney for Los Angeles to get off his dead ass and conduct a real civil rights investigation. The First Amendment rights of these kids were brutally violated - so where's the same government that's currently outraged by the mere possibility that some people won't punch their voting cards all the way through?
Let me put this as clearly as possible. I've got entire files now devoted to State and sundry AGs, Trustees, City Officials, Human Rights, Commissions, every "imaginable" group posting on HOW ANTI-54 THEY ARE.
Let us pause, and consider CA's SAG -- Bill Lockyer ("lock ya in a jail cell with...X" in re Enron). Bill Lockyer made it very clear after passage of 209 -- he'd do NOTHING to assist or enforce 209. If he didn't work against the law of 209 -- outside of Willie Brown, I'm not sure what other official could have done LESS to enforce a law in our State's Constitution. And he is, anti-54.
Therefore, bluntly put: These "officials" have made their position STATED up front (on 54). Therefore, via "lib dem" script behavior - if you buck city hall's stated position - You are ON your own -- it's your Owwwwwn problem.
These "officials" are NOT going to do anything to "investigate", IMHO, and IME.
It's Bull Connor behavior of old: "I toldya up front you can't drink out of that water fountain, so if you do, we gonna get ya, boy"
