Justice Has Its Windows Smashed Shortly after midnight on Friday the 13th of June, the Santa Cruz County Courthouse experienced not bad luck, but a deliberate act of revolt.

Measure K Commission Survivor Speaks Out 6 PM Thursday 6-12 on Free Radio The terminally moribund City's Measure K Commission--supposedly policing the police to insure they keep marijuana busts on private property as their lowest priority--had its first meeting in 6 months last Monday (June 9).
