P.G. Police Shoot Pit Bull

One pit bull was killed and another captured after several calls from a Pacific Grove retirement community that the dogs were acting aggressively toward people.

The dogs were reportedly roaming the area around the Pacific Grove Gold Course, near a retirement mobile home park and the Meals On Wheels headquarters.

The dog was then shot once with a police shotgun, police said in a news release. They said the dog was transported to an area animal hospital but “regrettably passed away.”

Interesting, considering that PG is more accessible to dogs than handicapped people.

Man Arrested In Cell Phone Hostage Extortion

A Seaside man was arrested in Pacific Grove in a sting operation Tuesday evening as he allegedly tried to sell a stolen cellular telephone to an undercover police officer.

Police said the phone had been stolen from Alejandro Ortiz on Saturday night while he was attending the Feast of Lanterns pageant at Lovers Point in Pacific Grove.

When I read the headline, “Man arrested in cell phone sting operation” I thought there was a big ring of stolen or hacked phone criminals. Too high tech for P.G., just another stupid bad guy named Kirby Bruno Jr. trying to extort money from an owner of a lost phone.

Messages from the mayors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki will be read as lanterns are assembled and towed to sea by kayaks.

The ceremony is sponsored by Women’s’ International League for Peace & Freedom, Monterey branch.

Also picked up by The Bulletin in the Council meeting minutes:

Peggy Olsen. We would like to have an event on August 9th at Lovers Point Beach. Movement to Peace And Freedom belive that the suffering of Japanese should not be forgotten. We wish to renew the call for elimination of nuclear weapons. We have applied to Recreation Department. We asked for special consideration because we don’t have 30 days.

Peace And Freedom? Where have we heard that before?
Oh, PG’s very own former first homeboy Dan Koffman and his flag of socialism…

“One day, the Flag of Peace and Freedom will fly over all the Nations of the World!” The Flag of Peace and Freedom was designed in 1984 and the Flag of Peace Organization founded in 1988 by artist Dan Koffman.

What really is Peace & Freedom? It’s Communism hiding behind a bunch of hippies..
