Local NON-Profits Take The Money...But Can't Quite Get The Job Done

Molly the Beagle Needs a Home. Owner past away.

What sticks in my craw are these local non-profits that siphon
hundreds of thousands of dollars from citizens, grants and
turn into large monopolies that cannot do the jobs they were
given all the money for in the first place.

I just picked up my dead, ex-marine's Beagle who widow can
no longer care for. She is a 8-9 year old sweet-heart of a dog,
but according to the local Haven Humane they already had
turned down 2 ahead of me. No room at what now has become
almost a local monopoly of nearly every pet service you can
think of under the sun....except of course the one thing they
were setup to do in the first place, take in stray, homeless, cats
and dogs. Now, since the county has also turned over their
operations and merged, I guess, with this organization...they
too are unable to provide the service they were setup for.

Recently, my neighbor trapped our cat in his raccoon trap,
no doubt provided by this agency, and as my wife and I were
out hunting for our cat, the neighbor actually drove by and \
waved at us, on the way to guess were, that's right, Haven
Humane...seems they have room for animals illegally removed
from their own neighborhoods, which they charged him to
take in, then charged me to take out and house. But their
is no room to do the job that thousands of folks donated
millions of dollars for, (over the years, I'm guessing here)
No money to do what they were given all the money to do.
Go figure.

Anyway, John my ex-Marine and fishing buddy died...we
bury him on Sept 3rd with full military honors...Molly was
his dog. If you can find or provide a home for this sweet
animal please contact me at 530-215-6218. I tried the
other places the girl at Haven recommended...no luck yet.
Petfinder, Petswithoutparents, and Craigslist. Thanks Al B.

Redding, California Homeless Activist Also Want To Know What's The Long Game?

"How do we accommodate the reality of poverty and homelessness without simply creating spiteful divisions? The poster campaign may be a worthy interim step, but what’s the long game?"

Silas Lyons ask Anti-Pan-Handling Crime Fighters..What's The Long Game?

The long game is an illegal city ordinance  prohibiting pan-handling.  Another law suit against
the City of Redding and maybe a few other agencies in it, and finally another $250,000 thousand
of tax payer money down the drain because no one at the city is able to control  their attorney.

Disgusted by drive against panhandling
The more I think about the new “anti-homeless” campaign, as I refer to it, the more disgusted I am with the morals of this city. I am embarrassed to say I am a part of such a small minded community. Its prejudice is so profound that I cant even believe that it is legal.
The problem of people asking for money isn’t so huge here that it even needs a solution. Instead, why not look at the underlying problem and figure out a solution to it. It’s just another example of Redding trying to ignore a situation that makes some people feel bad about themselves, so they come up with ways to avoid the real truth — that there are people out there whom are less fortunate, and need assistance.
And don’t give me that stuff about there being lots of homeless assistance programs and food banks that should be able to carry the load. There aren’t enough of them. The problem is only going to get worse. Cutting them off from society and pawning them off as beggars isn’t the way.
It isn’t human, and it shouldn’t be legal. It certainly isn’t ethical. Any business that participate should be ashamed of themselves.

Homeless/Pan-Handlers Redding, CA's "Final Solution"

More on that "Final Solution" Thing We Have Working Here In The Northstate







Wasn't that busy at lunch at Churn Creek McDonald's last time we
were there. Nor was it that busy at old CR Gibbs for a Friday afternoon lunch.
Foolish to say, or even think any boycott helps your business.  Like I've
always said, this is the gift that keeps right on giving, days,
weeks and months after a protest like this, people stay away.
We thank em.

KQMS 1400AM Kelly Frost finally breaks the story
other medias refused to even touch. Guess it did
not fit their agendas:
NO HOPE OR HELP FOR SARA GARCIA AT THE HOUSE OF HOPE
As I wrote to KQMS in a email. It is not our intention to smear the Redding "Good News" Mission or the "House of Hope" only to point out to the few "elite" Redding businesses and agencies, insisting we "Do Not Feed The Addictions" of the
local pan-handlers/homeless and increase the giving to these Missions, other nearly 20 non-profits that we have had faith in for decades, that they would provide the love, compassion and goodness if we supported them. As we see...this is not
happening in all cases._citizenactivist
________________________________

Ms Garcia was denied entrance into the House of Hope
in sub zero weather. She was found dead behind the
mission the following morning. Verified. Also she was
a known druggy.  Her "addiction"  challenge was solved the night of January 10th.

  • Earl Allen Boek McDonalds is also one of the few places the homeless/pan-handler can afford to eat at as well. You don't see them eating at CR Gibbs with all that reported BIG Income their all hauling in. Do you?

  • Pam Woolbert Do you know why she was denied entrance into the House of Hope? Was she considered a danger to the rest of the women and children already in the house? If she was on drugs or alcohol they can not let her in. I don't know all the story here. But, I do know they have rules for a good reason. Not all the homeless are willing to go by the rules. Some have committed crimes that will prevent them from being allowed to stay at the mission. Before you start to condemn an organization that is doing what they can, make sure you at least tell the whole story. Some just are not willing to go through the prayer service. There are lots of reasons for a person not to be allowed into the mission. Rather than handing cash over to a pan handler, I will give them the information as to where they can get the help they need. then I donate the cash to an organization that will see to it that the people in need will get real help. Those organizations are set up to get the most out of what they have to share. Some feed meals some provide food to take out and prepare, some offer medical , dental, education, recovery, and a safe place to stay. The change handed out will do none of that and will ,more likely than not, get used for what has put them in the need in the first place.

  • Earl Allen Boek Pam Woolbert: Yes, I know some of this. There are many rules, hoops and hurdles one must go through to stay there, including I'm told, they must give up 90% of their wages while in any program. I used to blindly donate to these organizations also, without too much over-sight. No more.

  • Earl Allen Boek Here's what I know so far as I mis-spoke about the media unwilling to run this story. They are waiting, I'm told, and no doubt the "House of Hope" is hoping that drugs show up in this dead womens system, which sounds likely depending. And I agree with these policies completely. If they are drinking, doing any drugs or won't pray, screw em. Lock em out, freeze them to death. I call it the "final solution." I'm starting to agree with you and a few others around here...Just give them the established system the money, like the last 20-30 years or whatever, turn my back and go fishing.

    Colin Lygren Action News 12/24 We diligently investigated this story on Tuesday. The corner has not yet confirmed a cause of death pending a toxicology report. She has several drug arrests and was known to huff propellants. We did not want to accuse the Rescue Mission of letting someone die before we knew all of the facts.

    Earl Allen Boek Thats fair enough. My understanding from homeless was she came to the "House of Hope" knocked and was not let in. Temp I'm told that night was below freezing. That would certainly do it. I need to start watching your channel more often Colin. thanks. EAB

    KQMS Radio did the story...they sure mentioned the drug problem she had, but alas I guess someone reporting the drug problem left out the part about her knocking asking for help. Or should I say hoping for help? Anyway, this might satisfy you, but I'll tell you, there is a local homeless lady suffering from a bladder infection and an ear infection, due to her "past drug history" and attraction to pain pills, which she admits, she is unable to get antibiotics or even admitted. I'm guessing you have no problem with that "rule" either. Anyway, here's what I know...If she's found to have drugs of any kind, I can stop worrying, it will be ALL over every media then, won't it.

  • Earl Allen Boek Or the part about it being below freezing temp that night. In her case, problem solved.

  • Earl Allen Boek By admitted, comment above, I mean admitted to any local hospital. She is staying behind "Mercy" at night in a homeless camp. Her name is Balloons (street name)

Redding Homeless "The Final Solution"

Robert Henham Why do you Earl Allen Boek and Chris Solberg keep posting negative post about the community's social services programs that feed and bed them and claim your the voice for the homeless. I think you both are doing more damage then good all round.
  • Earl Allen Boek I'm sorry to offend your senses...there Bob, but I do it because people are dying out here and a good portion of our community wants to ignore that dirty little secret. I get no personal pleasure out of exposing this evil crap going on around here. Educate yourself.
