SafeGround is UnSafe

Below is text for a flyer to be distributed at the so-called Safe Ground [or, SafeGround] Jubilee on Sept 14.
An article, written by SG Activist Tracy Rice Bailey, about the 'Jubilee' appeared in the August issue of the People's Tribune. The People's Tribune is published by the League of Revolutionaries for a New America [formerly, the Communist League] which also publishes Rally, Comrades!. [click on pic to enlarge.]


While SafeGround does good things, far the most notable being its involvement in promoting and staffing shelter for homeless people on, mostly, church properties in the county, the group also has the most unsavory and Orwellian of political connections and a history of greatly helping core members while falsely promoting itself as the voice of all Sacramento-area homeless folk.

At the time of its foundation, a so-called “Safe Ground Movement” was cited as central to the nonprofit’s efforts by the Homeless-Services-Industry FarFarFarLeftist fringe and their lawyers.  This political “movement,”  in close association with The League of Revolutionaries for a New America , seeks – I kid you not – a One World totalitarian government.  At their website [ http://lrna.org/program.html ] you can read this:

The demands of this new impoverished class for food, housing, education, health care and an opportunity to contribute to society are summed up as the demand for a cooperative society. Such a society must be based on the public ownership of the socially necessary means of production and the distribution of the social product according to need.

The new class cannot solve its economic problems without the public ownership of the socially necessary means of production and the distribution of the social product according to need. For the first time an objective communist economic class is forming to become the foundation for a communist political movement.

Globalization creates this new class everywhere. Global unity is the condition of its national emancipation. The League extends its hand of comradeship around the globe.

In cooperation with their commune-ist and Communist superiors homeless members of SafeGround have organized a "Homeless Forum" featuring League of Revolutionaries for a New America speakers, gone to Communist street protests in San Francisco, and, last year, went to a big Communist meeting in Detroit.

Unless you think that North Korea or the Soviet Union is a beautiful example of what you would like to see in a One World Government, I ask, on behalf of many -- if not the great majority -- of Sacramento Homeless people, that you NOT donate to the organizations SafeGround, Loaves & Fishes or SHOC.  Your money will be used in significant part to promote Looney Tunes political objectives.

Loaves & Fishes implicates Buddhism and Jack Kornfield in its June Donations Plea.

The Sukhothai Traimit Golden Buddha was found in a clay-and-plaster overlaid buddha statue in 1959, after laying in wait for 500 years. It's huge and heavy: just under 10 feet tall and weighs 5 1/2 tons. At the beginning of their June newsletter , Loaves and Fishes relates a story, taken from the beginning of renowned Buddhist teacher Jack Kornfield's 2008 book The Wise Heart: A Guide to the Universal Teachings of Buddhist Psychology . The first part and first chapter in Kornfield's book is "Part I: Who are you really?" and chapter 1 is called "Nobility: Our Original Goodness," which ought to serve as a clue to what the beginning of the book is about, not that that sentiment isn't strewn through-out the chapter, section and book such that what Kornfield is telling us should be crystal clear. Somehow, the not-ready-for-primetime management at Loaves & Fishes have managed to use Kornfield's wise and kindly words in a way that mangles th...

In an act of Collective Punishment, Loaves & Fishes closes its park in the morning on New Year’s Day

Calvin [a "green hat" in Unfriendly Park] makes the argument for continued incompetent management. Hobbes represents me — only, in real life, I don't have that good a coat . In an act of Collective Punishment, Loaves & Fishes closes its park in the morning on New Year’s Day In one respect — and only one — that I can think of, Loaves & Fishes is NOT hypocritical: The management hates the way America is run and wants to turn it into a backward communist country . Consistent with that, Loaves & Fishes’ management runs its facility like a backward communist country. The People’s Republic of Loaves & Fishes. A seemingly minor thing happened on New Year’s Day. A couple of people smoked a joint in Loaves & Fishes’ Friendship Park and one of the park directors, or both of them, determined, at about 10am, that, in retribution, they would punish all the homeless there by closing the park for the day. This is something the managers of the park do all the ...

Common ground on safe ground. Common sense, not communism.

Mayor Kevin Johnson at Safe Ground campground. [ twitpic : share photos on Twitter] For the second week in a row, I attended the Tuesday meeting of the SHOC Homeless Leadership Project effort to achieve safe ground , at the Delaney Center at the Loaves & Fishes facility. [ Here , my account of the prior week's mtg, which provides much the same news that was today's Top Story in the Bee .] I was reluctant to attend. Though I endorse core objectives of the group – support for a currently existant encampment of homeless people, called Safe Ground; and the mayor's effort, with Stepping Stone, to create a legal homeless encampment in Sacramento – the group evidences a lot of troubling Leftist attitudes and practices. Nonetheless, I was encouraged to attend and it became known to me that people were fully aware I was a blogger. [Both the prior week and today I introduced myself as being with Sacramento Homeless blog. Today, Paula Lomazzi of SHOC commended my article " A...
