30 innocent youth rounded up and incarcerated by SF Juvenile Authorities

by Francisco Da Costa
Our Mayor Gavin Newsom complete with his lubricated hair, our dense Senator Diane Feinstein, our corrupt Congressperson Nancy Pelosi have no idea what is happening to our youth and our poorly run SF Juvenile Incarceration Center. Again, this is the Foggy City of San Francisco and not the Windy City of Chicago where the Button Man reigns supreme.
I have waited for some days to see if the Media or the Main Press mentioned about this pertinent fact that happened some days ago around the Oakdale Public Housing in San Francisco very near Candlestick Park or Monster Park - to 30 young innocent youth.

30 youth were rounded up and sent to the SF Juvenile Facilities and treated worse then animals and forced to sleep on the floor.

Such treatment would not have been meted out to Whites in San Francisco.

All this under the administration of Mayor Gavin Newsom and his cronies.

A few days ago the SF Juvenile Commission met but this fact was reported to the SF Juvenile Commissioners.

Not even the District 10 Supervisor Sophina Maxwell knew about it - or so she stated unless she is in a habit of lying. But, in this case she too was kept in the dark - I presume.

It has been become fashionable for some idiots from Chicago to think they can play with fire. Enough is Enough.

Our City Attorney has no clue about our youth in Oakdale - the least he can do is visit the area and talk to the constituents - especially the mothers.

If he cannot do that he can arrange for the Community Based Organizations to make some arrangements. Let us see if he take the clue and follows up on my suggestion.

It is simply wrong to treat our youth like dirt. Remember, they are young and will not forget the wrongs done to them.

Who will right the wrong.

Good leaders know the way, show the way, and go the way.

You know whites get locked up too, and treated like animals. White transsexuals, gay man, or even someone who identifies with the goth community also get treated like animals, and locked up indiscriminately.
I firmly believe the author Francisco Da Costa is racist and Indybays approval of his rants are indicative of the failure of left wing politics and activism. Da Costas racist rants are one reason the middle class does not want to help with their cause or plight.

I have been trying to expose the corruption within the juvenile justice system for four years. I think the politicians are so corrupt they can't face the truth abouth what they are doing to our children! In San Diego County the kids are abused by staff, mentally and physically. They are also over medicated with psyhc drugs, or given ones not suitable for youth. I have been on the news, in the newspapers, the internet, putting the word out to the public! I have parents of some children who have been abused by the system working with me. I also have people who were fired from the system working with me. I charge no money, just ask for donations to help us keep fighting for the rights of children who are incarcerated! We offer support and resources for parents to fight the system! They are herding in children now like cattle so the State can make money off of our kids. Recycling them through the system over and over while families lose their homes to revenue and recovery! Governor Schwarzenegger signed the bill for a new facility! WHy? Thje kids need more incentive crime prevention programs, and programs that can help to rehabilitate the kids. Why isn't that important to the Governor? The Governor visits the rich kids schools, why not the poor schools? Black, white, hispanic, asian, it doesn't matter! These are children and they need nuturing and good care even if they have made mistakes. There are kids in adult prisons being sexually abused, beaten up and sentenced for crimes not committed! There is so much information on my web site, please read it, and you may also leave a comment and I will answer all letters. We are also affiliated with a Law firm out of San Francisco, if anyone has a problem, you can contact me immediately.

I am not talking about Adults that do wrong and break the law and are thrown in jail.

I am talking about youth targeted from a precise area without cause. If some adult Whites break the law, or if they are homosexual or transgender and break the law or do not break the law - you write about that.

I am fully aware that Whites are thrown into jails that stink to high heaven. Again, I am talking about Black youth in numbers targeted just because they are Black in the Oakdale area.

Do not bring you biased view of situations closer to you with the law and mix it with my precise reporting of one unique situation about Black youth. You are as confused as the come.
