WARNING: Travel Advisory for Santa Cruz Visitors
Over 4500 copies of the following handbill were distributed on July 3rd and 4th in tourist areas of Santa Cruz.
Over 4500 copies of the following handbill were distributed on July 3rd and 4th in tourist areas of Santa Cruz.
They were placed under windshield wipers of cars in city lots, hotels, and resturants, on light poles, change machines, and distributed by hand.
Areas covered included beach boardwalk, wharf, depot park, downtown, west cliff, seabright areas, mission street, and ocean Street.
The handbills were created to bring to the surface the simering tensions betweent he business interests (and their lapdogs in the downtown association and city council) and the rest of the citizens of this town.
A town cannot launch an undeclared war on the homeless, the poor, the idle young, and the undesirables in the name of safety and order and still remain vital and alive. We risk loosing the individuality that makes this town special.
If Santa Cruz continues on it’s current path, it will end as a town welcoming only to those with money, a movie set as dead, lifeless, and inauthentic as Solvang.
Reverse course. Eliminate the police state downtown.
