Another good letter. If the Council Majority has published one and someone points me to it, I’ll post that here as well.
So has anyone solved the mystery of why Whitaker was not allowed to see this video until this week?
Councilman Whitaker Addresses the Kelly Thomas Hearing

*We love Bruce….and Linda….they are awesome!
See, there you go again, Greg, passing on campaign material on City letterhead so … oh. Never mind.
Of course, there’s no way it’s newsworthy on its own, right?
You know what would make this really funny? If Chris Thompson posted this letter on FFFF, stating:
All the money in the world can’t buy a website self-awareness. For the record, I still appreciate both this statement and the Mayor’s statement — which I acknowledge exists.
I think it would have existed over there, if the Mayor hadn’t had the AUDACITY – the TEMERITY – to run against Norby! She used to be somewhat respected over there.
She’s still apparently well-respected by some close to Rep. Norby:

(Am I alone in finding this hilarious — presuming that it wasn’t a hacked account?)
I fail to see that this letter serves any useful purpose at all.
*Equal Time: Have you watched the video? Bruce felt compelled to let folks know how terrible it was. Sort of a warning….don’t let your wives or kids view this video. If you have had food lately….wait two hours before you watch the video. We watched it ONCE! That was enough. Probably good advice from Councilperson Whitaker…really
That video requires a WARNING LABEL. (May be much more disturbing than the Rodney video..)

Yes, I have seen the video and agree that it is barbaric. Other then succumbing to a compulsion, I still do not see any utiliity in his letter. Looks like just another politiician seizing on a tragedy to get some exposure to me. Or does he do movie reviews too?
