Re Justin M. Ruhge: Thank you. I recently spent seven weeks in Cottage Hospital with deadly Sepsis. I came out of it with the greatest respect for the frontline health workers in Santa Barbara. We have amazing people in Santa Barbara working long, long hours here to save lives and make hospital stays more positive - from the doctors to the RNs to the clean up people. And then we have these elected officials like Laura Capps who carries on as though she and her parasitic bunch of guaranteed vote unionists have given so much to Santa Barbara that there is no financial reward good enough for them. And no demolition of our streets good enough for the Next Door lobbyists who want more, more, more affordable housing and bicycle lanes to the beach so they can sit on their sun washed asses and write nasty things on Reddit or Next Door about anyone who criticizes their mistress Laura and Co. When was the last time any of them worked a brutal twelve hour shift and saved lives? When did they change a bed pan with a smile? When did they do anything but manipulate for more for themselves?

I missed the original post, but I'm guessing someone started a boycott of Mollies Deli because she is advertising on the SB Current??

That's plain nuts and just a crappy example of the dark side of social media. 50% of the country voted differently than any of us did. What, we're not going to teach their kids? Put the fire out on their house? Go to Church with them?

We change things in politics by the way we vote. Not where we eat.
