I’m gonna start another riot asked:


Since San Francisco is not complying with federal and state laws related to immigrant felony offenders are illegals in S,F, are acting with impunity because they have little to fear,” Uc-Cahun’s criminal history as a juvenile dates at least from Aug. 13, 2006, when San Francisco police reports show that he was arrested along with two other suspected gang members in the assault on a man at Dolores Park. The victim was hit in the head and threatened with a gun after the group demanded to know whether he was a gang member, according to the reports.

Uc-Cahun did not cooperate with police, refusing even to say where he lived, authorities said. The police report on the attack says Uc-Cahun was a Sureño gang member known as “Tweety” who had “numerous prior contacts” with law enforcement.

Uc-Cahun, then 17, was taken to juvenile hall and eventually was found to have committed felony assault. A San Francisco Juvenile Court placed him on probation and freed him from juvenile hall.

On Oct. 18, 2006, shortly after his release, Uc-Cahun was arrested again, this time for allegedly being part of a group that accosted a stranger on the street and ripped a chain from his neck.

He spent four months in juvenile hall before being found responsible for a single charge of felony assault. He turned 18 by the time he was freed in February 2007 and put on a year’s probation.

Arrest as an adult
Uc-Cahun was still on probation May 22, 2007, when he and several other suspected gang members allegedly jumped a man waiting for a ride on the 2700 block of Bayshore Boulevard in Daly City, said Steve Wagstaffe, chief deputy district attorney for San Mateo County.

Three men approached, accused the man of being a rival gang member and started beating him with a broomstick that eventually broke, Wagstaffe said. Other members of the group stripped the man of his jacket, and Uc-Cahun allegedly used a box cutter with a 2-inch blade to slash his abdomen open in two places.

“He basically gutted him, like you gut a pig to get to the meat,” Wagstaffe said. The man survived and later identified Uc-Cahun as the man with the box cutter.

Uc-Cahun was arrested in September 2007 and has been held without bail since. In March, following a preliminary hearing, a judge ordered Uc-Cahun to stand trial.

The victim, whom The Chronicle is not identifying at the request of prosecutors, testified at a preliminary hearing that, “I pulled up my shirt and I seen my guts were hanging out of my stomach.

“My friends wanted to get them back,” he said, but “all I did was lay down, (and say) ‘Man, take me to the hospital.’ “http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/08/21/MN4U12DRQF.DTL&tsp=1

DAR asked:


I **** to admit it, but I usually pay attention to the federal, and to some extent the state legislative races, but not to the ‘trivial’ city council and board of supervisor races. This year I am going to take the time to research where people stand in the local races. From Maywood’s prohibition of traffic tickets so’s not to catch illegals, to Hazelton’s strict anti-illegal immigrant laws, I have learned that the LOCAL politicians are very important.

Cook County IL, (including Chicago) is about to vote on being a sanctuary city, and the proponants of that motion think it will pass easily. I used to live there, and I’m telling you, people relied on Daly and didn’t pay much attention to anything else.

Will you pay attention to local elections in voting, now? And has the illegal immigration issue made a difference to you in this?
