June 13...

On this day in 1966: In Miranda v. Arizona, the U.S. Supreme Court holds that police must inform criminal suspects of their legal rights before arresting and questioning them.

It's been downhill for the justice system every since.

100's of death sentences were overturned.

The most famous case in CA was that of Gregory Powell who shot down LAPD Officer Ian Campbell in cold blood in a agricultural field near Bakersfield CA.

This story was immortalized in Joseph Wambaugh's book "The Onion Field."

At Campbell's funeral, bagpipes were played for the first time...it has since become an LAPD tradition.

The biggest gripe I have with the situation is that there is probably someone who knows what is going on, but is not communicating the problem to the users of the site.

Well, the FTE SoCal/Hawai'i banner is being made as we type, and will be proudly flown @ the F100 Western Nationals 21 June.

Bill - have you given any thought to coming out to the G2G?
