The filthy four on the Chico City Council have laid down the law for police, basically saying hands off the bums and junkies and by all means, don’t mess with their illegal camping sites on City property, you might trip over some stolen property.
That means in effect: Don’t cite them for camping wherever they please. Don’t arrest them for narcotics or narcotic paraphernalia. Don’t check their ID’s, you might find a warrant for their arrest. Don’t investigate for stolen property at all those illegal encampments knee deep in bike parts. Don’t bother responding to noise, trash or pollution complaints, if it involves this special group. Don’t bother them for sleeping at bus stop enclosures. Don’t bust them for being drunk or passed out on the sidewalk. Avoid arresting them if possible, but cite if you must and then release them.
DO… go out of your way to make them feel at home – we suggest you buy em a burger. Do, look the other way, if they are 
pushing a stolen shopping cart. Do, direct them to all the places around Chico for free food, free meals, free clothing, free healthcare and free shelter. Do, let them sleep on the lawn at city hall, this is good for our liberal image! Do, let them wash their laundry in the city fountains. Do, ignore the calls from citizens about noise, drunken, rowdy behavior, littering and pollution. (see pic at right – bike parts litter the area of Lindo Channel near Arbutus)
By order of the filthy four, your radical liberal council members. Carl Ory, Alex Brown, Scot Huber and Randall Stone. But, don’t go yet…there’s more!
See left -Illegal camp site next to Lindo Channel. 4/18/20. Note two stolen shopping carts at this site.
At the last city council meeting, Chief Obrien (who serves at the whim of the filthy four), was forced to described how his officers have been compassionate to the bums and junkies taking over Chico. More bums and junkies arrive every day, so its a tough job to keep up with their compassionate efforts.
Instead of fighting crime and enforcing the law, officers have been redirected to work closely with service providers and the city’s new Homeless Solutions Coordinator to serve and protect the health and safety of Chico’s exploding bum population. Of course this is done now under the pretext of stopping the spread of the Corona virus, that hasn’t really done anything in Chico yet.
The chief went into great detail about the discretion being used by the Target Team that at one time effectively stopped a lot of crime, especially thefts from vehicles in downtown where the bums hang out. Chief Obrien noted that not a single camping citation has been issued in over eight months! Oh goody, the Filthy Four must have been so pleased, but they needed more, much more. Which is why they passed the Brown New Deal in an emergency session.
Chico resident Teri Dubose, said, “… these out-of-touch council members are using this pandemic to begin enacting the highly controversial Brown New Deal (1) at a time when the public is restricted from having a voice at council meetings. They made no attempt to describe why this non-agendized ordinance required emergency action – and city staff made no attempt to rein in the council.”
- The Brown New Deal allows bums to camp in green zones around the City of Chico. One of these trash laden, needle strewn camps could be next to your home or your kids playground. Guess we can take down all these city signs now, because camping, dumping trash, the piles of stolen bikes, all the stolen shopping carts, its all ok now, if you are a bum or junkie.
- Brand new shopping cart shown below ($300 cost) found at bum camp on Lindo Channel behind S&S Produce. 6 other carts were nearby, several were from Sav-Mor and another nice newer one was from Safeway. That’s about $1800 worth of stolen shopping carts in a 1 block area, not to mention all the bike parts we found in the grass and near camps.
Suggest the results of any cleanup efforts by individuals be deposited on the doorsteps of the “filthy four.”
That’s a good idea, but I’ve been told by the local volunteers doing the majority of clean up at the bums camps and around town, they have quit. No more volunteers. They are boycotting, they refuse to after the council passed this Brown New Deal in secrecy. I can’t blame them. But, if they stop the clean up you know the trash will build up. There will be piles of garbage next to the channel (it’s already started) and with those piles of garbage all over, there will also come the rats and disease, just like it did in other cities with a bum problem. If there was any justice in this world, the Filthy Four should be forced to do the clean up from now on. They should be forced to pay the price f9r their own stupidity and irresponsible behavior.
Maybe letting the trash build up is the best thing that could happen in Chico.
Document it, publish it, dwell on it, during next election.
In turn, maybe it will generate a turnout to remove these 4 idiots (who really degrade the word idiot), because until it becomes a first hand experience or impacting those with the liberal mindset and negatively effects them, nothing will change.
Even a die hard Liberal will scream bloody he77 when rats start running through their homes.
Welcome to Chico! Soon to be San Fransewer North!!!!!
