Its shocking that
“Redding’s Good News Rescue Mission turned away 500 people last year.”
Especially since City Council member has heard threats of baseball bats against homeless and their camps.
Redding California city council person Missy McArthur receives messages from vigilantes wanting to go out into the homeless camps and send them a message with baseball bats.
Im getting calls, emails, and on – the street comments about this No.1 issue. Things like :
“Let’s take some bats and show transients we don’t want them here.”
How does Redding California Police Chief Robert Paoletti respond ?
Redding Police release map!
Seems a police and city official created dynamic hardly conducive to the health, safety, and well being of our local homeless men and women, as well as the growing numbers of our homeless families, children, and veterans.
And the worst part of all is other than a tweet from a so called ” SafeCity ” meeting by a relatively new reporter who momentarily forgot her marching orders no local news media would have ever reported it.
And its now clear to me the reporters of the multiple Safe City Record Searchlight series ad nauseam are deeply in the pockets of the homeless hatred crowd and have become nothing more than the mouth piece for Redding City Officials, and its ever increasing militaristic, seems to answer to nobody police chief.
Sure, like every year, homeless will die on the streets of Redding this winter from the extreme cold.
And you and other local news media outlets will do the usual tragic annual we gotta do something about this stories…
Has the so called “Safe City founder addressed
this?
Noooo
Has our local news media addressed it ?
Redding Record Searchlight - Redding .com, KRCR TV Channel 7 News, Action News Now ?
Noooo
Nor will you report on what could very possibly put an end to many of these needless tragedies if you would only stop the cover up and report the facts as you claim.
I quote your Tweet and admission from Record Searchlight reporter Katie Gillespie,
That
“Redding’s Good News Rescue Mission turned away 500 people last year.”
Redding and Shasta Counties ONLY night time homeless shelter.
