b'Poway Unified is in the news\\u2026. Again! Now a free speech case is coming before the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, politicians are trying to protect renters and protect the homeless, but their policies end up making the housing crisis even worse.\\n\\n\\n\\nIt\\u2019s Wednesday, April 26, 2023. Here\\u2019s what John Riley thinks:\\n\\n\\n\\nPoway Unified School District first amendment case before Supreme Court\\n\\n\\n\\nPoway School Board members Michelle O\\u2019Connor-Ratcliff and TJ Zane (no longer in office), blocked their constituents from speech on their social media pages. Christopher and Kimberly Garnier have been long time critics of the school districts policies and demanded that the school board hold corrupt superintendent John Collins accountable. Should public officials be able to thwart free speech on their social media accounts, even when they discuss policy issues?\\n\\n\\n\\nCoronado and Oceanside School Districts sue Facebook, Google, TikTok and Twitter\\n\\n\\n\\nOf course, social media is impacting children. It has an addictive quality and sadly some kids engage in cyber bullying. Is this the time to sue technology companies? Or is this a teaching opportunity on how to best integrate social media in your life? Focus on reason, rationality, and not living second handed.\\n\\n\\n\\nSan Diego Renter Protections\\n\\n\\n\\nIf a property owner fulfills the terms of the lease agreement, but then decides to have the tenant vacate the property, does that make them a bad person? San Diego officials want to force landlords to pay 2-3 months of rent if they evict a tenant for no-fault. Sometimes landlords want to upgrade the property, move back in, sell the property, or just move on from troublesome tenants. Landlords have property rights, right?\\n\\n\\n\\nRenters upset about Ratio Billing for Utilities. Pay your fair share!\\n\\n\\n\\nIn older apartment buildings, there are no specific electric, gas, and water meters for each unit. So, property owners use a formula to share those costs amongst the tenants. Now tenants are upset that they are paying more than they should. Isn\\u2019t this how socialism and collectivism always seem to work? Some pay more than their fair share. Others freeload off others.\\n\\n\\n\\nSDG&E Rates Based on Income are Nonsense\\n\\n\\n\\nIn a recent letter to the editor, a Poway resident expressed his frustration with SDG&E\\u2019s proposal to base electric rates on income. Is this another income redistribution scheme?\\n\\n\\n\\nSan Diego Mayor Todd Gloria has had it with homelessness.\\n\\n\\n\\nPublic officials are facing a moral dilemma. Do they push out the homeless from encampments since they are there illegally and don\\u2019t have property rights? Or is doing so inhumane? Seems like Todd Gloria is ready to get more aggressive to push the homeless out.\\n\\n\\n\\nShould the government buy housing for the homeless?\\n\\n\\n\\nThe San Diego Housing Commission is planning to buy 3 Extended Stay America motels at the price of $383,000 per unit to house the homeless. Promising idea?\\n\\n\\n\\nSan Diego Electric Vehicles Surging\\n\\n\\n\\nOver 10,000 EVs were sold in San Diego County in the first quarter of 2023. California now has over 1.5 zero emission vehicles. It\\u2019s clear what direction this is headed. Get on board or get left out.\\n\\n\\n\\nLA Times Opinion Article: Give up on EV?\\n\\n\\n\\nAn LA Times editorialist is fed up with the challenges of charging their EV on road trips. But is it really that hard? If you have a home charging station, that should satisfy 90% of your needs.\\n\\n\\n\\nSan Diego Community Forum: Low Riders, SDG&E, San Diego Roads, Rancho Bernardo Cannabis\\n\\n\\n\\nIn our Community Forum segment, we hear from livestream viewers and YouTube commenters. The people of San Diego have something to say about what is happening in their local community.\\n\\n\\n\\n#poway #sdge #homelessness #NIMBY #sandiego #ranchobernardo #urbnleaf #PUSD #powayschools #potholes #lowriders #nationalcity #eviction #rentersrights #coronado #oceanside #socialmedia #toddgloria #EVs #electricvehicles\\n\\n\\n\\nJRP0317\\n\\n\\n\\nRelevant Links:\\n\\n\\n\\nPoway Unified School District and Supreme Court:https://www.'
