He is hidden way back in the brush area but i made a wrong turn onto Shasta View (a dead end) yesterday and when i turned around to get back on airport road i saw him across the street.

The most pathetic thing is? In the Redding area, we have a city council that feels they can do as they please and use the police as "puppets" to fund their next project- (good god! Palm trees to add what to the look of Hilltop) So the police hand out one questionable ticket after another in hopes of keeping their jobs?

But when the budget cuts hit and they lose their job or wages are cut- they come to us asking us to back them up.

I will proudly stand next to any uniform and fight for the thing to be done- between the citizens and the uniforms- we can eliminate any and all problems that cost us so dearly: palm trees, field of dreams, pay raises for the local city officials and so on.
