Handicapped and Homeless Dying on Redding Streets


On my usual morning coffee run, I take the time to do a welfare check around the downtown post office. I am particularly concerned with those homeless souls with medical and mental issues, such as one homeless senior citizen who sleeps in front who has has had multiple strokes.

Another poor handicapped homeless soul I would love for folks to rally behind and help is a handicapped senior citizen in a wheelchair I will call "Jay"



You may have seen "Jay" as he pushes himself around town backwards.



This morning I found "Jay" in a most uncomfortable position sleeping at the post office. Concerned for his welfare I found him sleeping with his pants down.

To give you a little history of what I have been told by "Jay" is at one time he had a motorized wheel chair that was stolen while he was staying at the Good News Rescue Mission, which he vowed never to set foot in again. As I have been monitoring him over the last several years I can see he is fading fast. One of his hands now curled in a stroke like position.

He tells me he falls out of his wheelchair sometimes and people refuse to help him get back in.

Perhaps its the stench of advanced MRSA or Gangrene that can all to often be found eating up the weakest most vulnerable homeless population at this downtown location.

Perhaps it is because this poor languishing soul is incontinent, and during the coldest Redding winters he can be seen on the streets soaking wet, or worse.

Which is how I found him this morning at the downtown Redding Post Office....

Redding Police Stop Enforcing Camping Ordinance "Cruel and Unusual Punishment"



In todays
10/21/18 Record Searchlight Sunday paper there is an article by in my opinion by Redding business and City bootlicker David Benda. "City stops camping crackdown after ruling"

While Benda paints a picture of city leaders and police patting their asses over the success of "Quality of Life Crimes " NEVER ONCE IN THE ARTICLE DOES Benda quote what the Federal Judges have said Redding Police and Shasta County Courts have been doing to homeless for years.

"Cruel and Unusual punishment"...

Why does it take a Federal judge to tell the City of Redding, Jakey Mangas of the Redding Chamber of Commerce, Good News Rescue Mission, Bethel Church, and all the silent non profits that serve the homeless what has been happening in the city for years?

Criminalizing the homeless, violating their civil and constitutional rights? Including homeless veterans ?

Atta boy Redding Police Chief Moore...

Its a spiritual battle Christian Marine

"Cruel and Unusual punishment"...


When you take their possessions do you hold them for 90 days by law or throw them all away ?






Just who's side are you on friend?






Redding Police accepts Bethel's $25,000 for drones

"Cruel and Unusual punishment"...
