Sorry, tried to post the link. If I find it, I will edit the post.


So the 30% of non-corrupt police officers in TJ had mothers who drank too much diet coke. Now I get it. The other 30% were just to stoooopid for the gamg to trust,

Having driven extensively through the South West and Southern US and Gulf States this winter I can tell you that much of what people hear is FOX and Religious broadcasting, often the only media available. That explained a lot to me. It depends upon who is informing the populus.

Just to keep the MSNBC article in perspective, here a second page article in a Sacramento paper. A weekly, if not daily occurance in any sizable California city.

LINDA – Identities of three men found dead Thursday in an east Linda apartment were released Sunday by Yuba County Sheriff Steve Durfor.

Autopsy results show that brothers Jesus Arreguin- Card##as, 37, and Jose Arreguin-Card##as, 31, and Manuel Robles-Basurto, 27, died of gunshot wounds, according to Durfor.

Sheriff's Department spokeswoman Melanie Oakes declined to say where the wounds were located on the bodies.

All three men "originated from outside the Yuba-Sutter area," said a statement from the sheriff. "Detectives are attempting to determine what brought these men to Linda and their connection to the apartment where they died.
