YBOR STREET BEATS
Smell the flowers
Feel the wind dance on your skin
Taste the pureness of an approaching rain
And always, always
Stop to listen to the music

City Elections Reflect Tampa’s Apathy, Resistance to Change
Tampa voters are satisfied residing in a large city with no national identity, an out-migration of tech-savvy, well-educated Millennials, a below-average public education system, and an eight-year stream of negative
national headlines.

The City Council races also reflected the city’s reluctance to change. Longtime City Councilman Charlie Miranda, who has served without distinction for decades, received 57 percent of the vote against two challengers. One of them, John Godwin, enumerated innovative programs for transit, the environment, housing, and a culture of inclusiveness

Hillsborough County Bureaucratic Bull Shit
Today many of us in Hillsborough County Florida attended the County Commissioners meeting. Going into this meeting I had some high hopes of receptive commissioners that had a little bit of heart and compassion. Leaving the meeting I now feel that we have real issues with a totally disconnected board of county commissioners that have not only a double standard but also suffer from a "holier than thou" syndrome. The main purpose of our visit to this meeting was to get some type of action or assistance with the abuse of power shown and flexed by HCSO in regards to the undercover deputy, Philip J. Montesi, that hit and killed Josiah Pinner on
January 11th of 2019.
Today we witnessed County commissioners laughing at people that were standing up to address their concerns. Today we witnessed Commissioners ignoring speakers during their 3 minute allotted talk time. After seeing and hearing the excuses we were given it has become clear that this coverup of lies is blanketed with the corrupt political bureaucratic bull dung. It is this journalist opinion that the county commissioners are in full criminal collusion with the HCSO. I say this because the funding for the HCSO is provided by the county commissioners and yet they say they have no control or influence over the HCSO. When unlawful actions are covered up or ignored by higher up officials it dose mean that all parties are active participants in criminal collusion.
As a "people" of Hillsborough County we should not be laughed at by those that we elect into offices or positions. We should all be given the same respect and dignity that these elected officials demand. After witnessing the things I saw today at this public meeting it has become clear to me that we have major corruption and collusion problems in Hillsborough County Florida. You can bet that we will not give up in our stance to expose this corruption to the fullest extent of our ability. We will continue to hold protest and to peacefully assemble

Our peaceful protest deprive this criminal collusion enterprise of three things: Capitol, Control, and Credibility.
