When Pigs Fly: Sentinel Takes on Bunnys
Sentinel comes to senses
http://www.santacruzsentinel.com/localnews/ci_13364452
A surprisingly fair and balanced piece from the Sentinel about the injunction against the Bunnys Two (Deleon and Richardson). Now if they had only given similarly fair coverage to the Three Trees One or Bad Ass Two incidents... oh, well, you can dream!

No mention of homeless protest against Bunny's Shoes, Lulu Carpenters, the Palomar, and Borders for supporting the Injunction.
No mention of the complete lack of shelter, making every citation given out a Constitutional violation (if you can't prosecute, you shouldn't be allowed to cite, under the Jones reasoning of the 9th Circuit Court decision that threw out L.A.'s Sleeping Ban).
Nor is there mention of the fact that the City has not used the Injunction against Anna and Miguel--though they could have--nor they activated the "Three Infractions Left Unpaid and You're Jailed" law. That could be good news, I suppose in the short run. But other factors are ominous: its existence as a terrorist threat, the increased police funding and activity, recent "trollbuster" violence downtown against the homeless (see http://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2009/09/22/18622721.php ) and the Downtown Association''s stonewalling on any dialogue around the Sleeping Ban indicate active abuse of the local homeless community is alive and well here. None of which the Sentinel has covered.
