Let's Take a Moment to Thank Gavin Newsom
Let's Take a Moment to Thank Gavin Newsom because, around here, civil liberties come first!!
Wow, looking at ALL these pictures of the SFPD brutalizing innocent antiwar protesters-- just like always-- makes me want to take a moment to be grateful for the "surprisingly liberal" Gavin Newsom, who so recently has so magnificently and publicly displayed his commitment to the civil liberties of each and every one of us.
I look forward to the unconventionally rapid response of his administration, as they strive to adhere to the spirit of the laws meant to protecty our freedoms, with a full investigation and unrelenting prosecution of these criminals-in-blue, who after all, work for his city and are answerable to him through his Police Commission. I trust he won't let minutae of rules and regulations, let alone the inertia of business as usual, stand in the way of what is right. I look forward to his bold and visionary leadership for the sake of my freedoms denied.
I look forward to having my picture taken on the steps of City Hall, weeping with satisfaction while I, too, clutch a sign saying to all the world: Thanks Gavin!!
He must have been too busy addressing all the tens of thousands of his fellow citizens and our guests, making common cause with us against war and terrorism, to notice the excesses of these his public servants.
