Welcome to "Stabba Barbara" , America's most beautiful war zone!
Do the tourism folks in Santa Barbara not understand that the "cat is out of the bag" and that they too need to join in to stop the gang warfare in our fair city?

And the environmental sillies and green City Council are worried that oil production will hurt the tourism industry. What tourism industry? Seems the only more dangerous tourist destination with beautiful beaches can be found in Mexico.

We sure know how to rise up against oil on the beaches but not blood on the streets. Starting a new group GBO - get blood out.

GANGS, CRIME, welcome to the BIG CITY mentality.
Santa Barbara is NO more safer than South Central L.A. or East L.A.
The Gangs rule the streets, the cops are restricted to P.C. coded laws, the polititions are up for re-election and the tourists are just fat money carrying pigs waiting to be slaughtered by the Lords Of the Street (ie. Latino Gangs).
When I come to visit next Summer, I look forward to smog, murder in the streets, drive-by shootings and Hip-Hop players slapping whores and pissing on passing cars; like I see everyday in D. C.
Welcome to reality.................... It's all good.
