Redding California Police Shoot an unarmed Navy Veteran with an ASSAULT RIFLE out at Lema Ranch ...
Shasta County Sheriffs shoot a Iraq Marine Veteran probably with broken bones at the bottom of cliff no threat to anybody but Squirrels and Jackrabbits in the bottom of a ravine in Ono, shot dead with ASSAULT RIFLE ...
And multiple people have died in the Shasta County Jail at the hands of correctional officers...
Send a message to "local law enforcement Italian Mafia and their boot licker Catholic Mafia Chamber and Fake News mouth piece division of anti Christ propaganda" ...
Tell Bethel Church no thank you ...
DO NOT REWARD THESE PEOPLE FOR THEIR RECORD OF DEATH AND CARRNAGE. DEMAND EVERY ONE OF THEM WEAR BODY CAMERAS !
Oh how money talks in this day and age, and who and what we are able to spiritually overlook turning our collective backs in pursuit of it is just astounding.
Never before has the concept of the separation of church and state came more into focus
as what appears to be a complete and total take over of our community by the mega force
and church known as Bethel.
Outrage from community members at the growing Parkview homeless camp, the Redding community watched as the city of Redding with its Bethel heavy mayor Julie Winter crafted and "strengthened" the decree that directly opposes the wishes and desires of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Being homeless in Redding California is now essentially a crime
Not only that during a wicked snow storm the Parkview homeless tent camp was devastated.
Imagine a thin piece of plastic or tent between you and 8 inches of snow as you spent
the long hours of the night sleeping ... suffering...
As early morning photos and videos were taken one woman was seen in tears, her face pink from frost bite as another man went from tent to tent telling folks to take refuge under the cypress street bridge.
Homeless reported the next day a fellow Shasta county homeless veteran was found dead from the cold "hugging a trash can."
Another disabled handicapped man known as Rick stuck in his electric wheelchair in the snow desperately needing help.
911 authorities were called to no avail, homeless report.
And although the Parkview homeless tent camp was destroyed by the Redding police we see now the intent and purposes of a Bethel takeover of our city, and people are watching.
Make no mistake, Redding crossed a spiritual line that day...
Through all this suffering and pain homeless also report the goodness of the community especially the christian group who came down reportedly to the Parkview homeless camp and spent hours digging Rick and his wheelchair out of the snow and created a path to safety.
Or the countless other folks including a group from Bethel who would bring coffee and donuts to the site.
Others would bring food or other survival necessities, Jeffry England and Trinity County Food Assistance Program donated even dog food, showing the love of the Christian believer and non believer alike.
Who can forget the brave souls who had the courage to speak out at several Redding city council meetings against the barbaric anti camping ordinance.
Or RV Scheide and A NewsCafe compassionately rising above others to give facts
and humanize homeless in a true light that has become a rare desire in a dehumanizing world.
A Love challenge was focused on Redding City, Police, and Bethel Church leaders all failed miserably and I believe did everything humanly possibly to stop anybody else loving them as well, also failing miserably.
Through all of the local diabolic triangulation of City of Redding controlled local news media,
Through all the vicious weather and freezing cold temperatures,
Through all of your years of cruel and unusual punishment,
Through all of the suffering, the homeless now know they are loved.
Love Challenge complete... And for those who witnessed it was Magnificent.
I knew Robert when he took refuge under the covered entrance to Trinity Lutheran Church on Hilltop until they kicked him off the property several years ago. I have never witnessed him panhandling. Robert told me he was a Vietnam veteran, who often could be seen with a guitar. Apparently Robert spent the last years of his life sitting in front of the Target Department store. It is my understanding somebody ran over Roberts foot, and infection set in.
Folks in Target can tell you more, and they have been nice enough to purchase this memorial stand where this well known and loved homeless man dwelled.
Robert died of esophageal cancer which jives with what the folks told me at Target because they were not sure if it was the cancer or the gangrene or both that killed him.
*Folks working at Target gave him things periodically to survive and in the process monitored him.
*Folks working at Target noticed he was starting to fail healthwise and called help for him, so this homeless veteran didn't have to die on the street, but in the relative comfort of a health care facility.
*Folks working at Target bought and placed the thoughful memorial you see now next to the entrance of Target.
*Folks working at Target have proved again by their Love and Compassion that "Handouts Do Help"
No matter what the heartless have to say...

I came into contact with Robert Moore several times. During conversations around town in his lucid periods he was very soft spoken and at times you could see a sparkle in his eyes. He would always seem to make it to the food bank just about when we were ready to close, so I waived the 2x a month rule for him. He often needed sleeping bags, blankets, and other basic survival gear.
He was always so thankful and appreciative, and if he were still alive im sure he would tell you handouts do help.
Another poor soul fallen through the ever expanding cracks in Redding's social safety nets.
A touching personal tribute to an all to common tragic tale...
Please meet Tony, a homeless man who has spent day and night during Redding's
exceptionally cold winter outdoors. As hundreds of people a day pass by Tony
across the street from the downtown post office, many of them leave love
offerings... clothes, food, blankets, .......money.
Usually he can hobble over to the covered Raba bus station when it rains but he
could not even get up when Fire and EMS arrived. He was hunched over all day
which was very disturbing .
We noticed he was starting to fail healthwise and called help for him. I looked at the paramedic and said he was dying on that bench... He agreed
Redding Police and businesses are very hot to do a "Handouts Dont Help" campaign to try to drive some
of the homeless out of town, As a Christian we are very much against as we could
gage Tony's condition through out the day as we gave him love offerings
Tony spent over 2 weeks in the hospital.
As you can see, and if you were to ask Tony, handouts do help...

A homeless senior citizen in her 70's who often panhandles to feed herself and feed her stray animal friends, Barbara or "Catwoman" camps out in the wooded area by the Sacramento River known as the Henderson Open Space. Recently she alleges that Bob Brannon, community work program officer for the Redding California Police Department has threatened to arrest her if she dident leave the Henderson area, and that she would loose her beloved pet dog.
She also alleges, as many homeless folks do, that Officer Brannon has taken her personal possesions and has cost her a great deal of money to replace. She loves to feed and take in unwanted stray dogs and cats, and it is said that she has developed a relationship with wild animals as well, feeding turtles and baby skunks as they rub up against her like baby kittens.
Unfortunatly when Bob Brannon discovers and raids her camp, he throws away any survival homeless camping gear she has managed to obtain.
Many, many homeless folks that live away from the Good News Rescue Mission wish to be self sufficient and panhandle for the most basic of survival needs, ( Tents, Sleeping Bags, Cooking Stoves, etc. ) which Officer Brannon of the Redding Police Department confiscates on a regular basis requiring folks like Barbara to panhandle to continually replace.
In order for many homeless folks in Redding and Shasta County to survive, your generous Handouts Do Help...
