  22. Please help Santa Rosa's homeless, who are in for a particularly bad two years.

    I've been watching SR City Council meetings pretty regularly for about five years, and I'll bet a psychiatrist would diagnose Tom Schwedhelm as sociopathic. He's the one who's been inciting the...
  23. Re: Animal-considerate shoes?

    This sounds like snidely-expressed annoyance. I don't know of any reason to think Bee Kind would leave any species's stools on the ground. Maybe you could find some humans who walk with dogs in the...
  24. Re: Animal-considerate shoes?

    It could be seen as honoring, except that it gets more animals killed; without the very big money from leather sales, the meat industry would be hard to sustain at anywhere near its present size. 1st...
  25. Re: PETA on Prop 12

    This is what I've been looking for; it sounds as though other farm animals will benefit from 12 and the way to protect hens is to get people to stop eating eggs.
  26. Animal-considerate shoes?

    Does someone out there know where I can find the following? Shoes that are made with consideration for all Earth's creatures, including humans, so:

  29. PETA on Prop 12

    While Prop 12 would ultimately abolish cages, it would also allow tens of thousands of hens to be confined to massive sheds with no more than 1 square foot of space per bird. Did you know that this...
  30. Re: Protect Santa Rosa's poor.

    The Council members usually rotate the office of mayor among themselves; it ought to be Combs's turn this year, but the majority of the Council members resent her showing them up, as they resented...

    I still think Mutz is the least ridiculous of our options: Curly, Moe and Larry.
  38. Re: 300 million dollar housing bond

    Thanks for showing us the arithmetic, Tommy; we've had a lot of good comments on this. A combination of a very progressive tax and a living wage would go a long way; I'd also be in favor of putting...
  39. Small-Animal Retrieval
