A few days ago, a California state appeals court overturned plans issued by Santa Cruz City officials. Of course, this isn't unusual given the plans routinely proposed in Santa Cruz -- becoming sister cities with a ghost-town, coming out in favor of reparations to citizens of Atlantis, opposing new development so that open space is available for flying saucer parking.
But this time, the court may be wrong. And I'm taking it personally. The fight involves letting dogs go unleashed at Lighthouse Field State Beach. The court sided with a neighbors group that argued that Santa Cruz didn't analyze the environmental impact of unleashed dogs.
Oh please. Give me a break. Once again, environmental impact is being used as a sword to attack anything people don't like. And these people don't like dogs. That's what it's really all about.
One of the members of the neighborhood group that the court sided with said that dogs are potentially "little killing machines that you don’t have any control over."
Oh yeah? Well, bite me.
You can see an article about this whole controversy in the Santa Cruz Sentinel. I've got to pee now.
