(Jack Morse) The newly created Department of Homelessness & Supportive Housing is set to begin the process of removing every single homeless encampment in the city — tent by tent. CBS 5 reports that the department’s deputy director, Sam Dodge, laid out this goal in conversation with the channel at the same time as SFPD Northern Station Captain John Jaimerena was telling Hoodline that his officers have no plans to take down encampments as it isn’t illegal to be homeless.

“We’ve seen an increase in encampments in the Mission district between 14th street and 19th street and South Van Ness and Harrison,” Dodge told CBS 5. “To try to go person by person, offer everyone at least shelter so that we can resolve an encampment.”

When pressed by CBS 5 if to “resolve an encampment” meant “taking them down,” Dodge replied, “yeah, that’s right.”

Jessi C.: They should check out MA too…when my nephew came back from foster care he was on Adderall and Risperdal, with no real diagnosis…the doctor my mom bought him to couldn’t believe it. Turns out he’s fine doesn’t need anything. DCF claimed he was schizophrenic…lies…all lies!

(Justin Gardner) After years of growing concern, the California state auditor has produced a damning reportdescribing how the state’s 79,000 foster children are being drugged with psychotropic medications at abnormally high rates.

The report found that nearly 12 percent of kids in California’s child welfare system were prescribed psychotropic medications – including antipsychotics, antidepressants and mood stabilizers – during 2014-2015. This compares to a rate of 4 to 10 percent for non-foster kids.

Teddy C.: Some professors have very fragile egos. I once corrected a business school professor on a non-controversial topic and he totally shut me down; he was very defensive to be corrected by a student.

Jason R.: This is so true

Jason R.: It’s good to learn the history not an edited version of history

History Teacher Denies Native American Genocide, Native Student Disagrees, Gets Expelled:
http://countercurrentnews.com/2015/09/history-teacher-denies-native-american-student/

A Native American student at Cal State Sacramento University was told by her history teacher that there was no genocide against the indigenous population of North America. When the student, Chiitaanibah Johnson, took issue with this claim and challenged him, she was ejected from the class and expelled.

The professor said he didn’t care for the term “genocide” as he didn’t think it accurately describes what happened in relation to Native American history.

U.S. History Professor Maury Wiseman accused Johnson of “hijacking” his class when she challenged him on this. He also pointed out that he was very offended at her accusations that he was a “bigot” and “racist.”
