textConceptual Plan by Lennar BVHP LLC introduced at Land Use with lots of sell outs present. by Francisco Da Costa
Lennar BVHP LLC simply does not get it. Lennar BVHP LLC will NOT succeed and will be buried if it does not learn some basic principles. Again and again it uses "thugs" to intimidate innocent folks at meetings. Yesterday, at the Land Use Meeting - Black sellouts came to the meeting - all invited by Lennar BVHP LLC and all on Lennar's payroll. It is this type of "thug" operations - that will come to bite Lennar BVHP LLC in the butt. The real community does not want Lennar in our community of Ba...

textCould Barack Obama expose the Democrats in the Bay Area for their pathetic behavior? by Francisco Da Costa
Senator Diane Feinstein, Congressperson Nancy Peloso, Mayor Gavin Newsom and the Mafia like organizations that are working to strong arm certain policies - must be challenged by Senator Edwards and Senator Barack Obama. On of the most important issues is what is happening at Hunters Point Naval Shipyard - a Superfund Site. One of the ten most toxic sites in the Nation.

textMayor Gavin Newsom fails to implement an Ordinance tied to the Precautionary Principle by Francisco Da Costa
It is hype to talk about reducing particulates in San Francisco - when all the time in certain areas - in San Francisco - the opposite is true. Mayor Gavin Newsom should take one more look at the Precautionary Principle, read it or have some else read it to him - before he opens his mouth about making San Francisco Carbon neutral by 2020. If this statement is not a joke - I do not know what is. Under Gavin Newsom nothing much has changed - and one has just to review the data from the Bay Area...

mccloud.jpg
by Dan Bacher
You have a unique chance to help right an historic wrong by supporting Assemblyman Jared Huffman's bill, AJR 39, to restore recognition of the Winnemem Wintu (McCloud River) Tribe. The bill will codify the State's de facto recognition of the Winnemem Wintu as a California tribe and encourage the Federal Government to correct their administrative error and restore the tribe's Federal recognition. I encourage you or the organization you represent to send a letter ASAP to support the tribe. ...

Over the years thousands suffered from cancer and are suffering - even as we speak - all over Bayview Hunters Point and beyond. Of course Senator Diane Feinstein and Congressperson Nancy Pelosi are not cognizant of these facts. Mayor Gavin Newsom - a Racist - would not know. The Environmental Protection Agency and other Regulatory agencies are told to be mum - if they utter a word - they a...

In the year 2000 a fire erupted on Parcel E at Hunters Point and took over one month to put out. The SF Fire Department were at a loss how to stop the underground fire.
