TONIGHT ON PISSED OFF RADIOFRI. 2/26/10 6 to 8 PM
The new chief of the San Francisco Police Department, George Gascon, wants to make it illegal to sit or lie on a public sidewalk and wants to arm the city's police officers with tasers.
We'll speak with SF Police Commissioner, VINCENT PAN, about the safety of the tasers and whether or not we can trust an SFPD armed these allegedly "non lethal" weapons.
We'll also speak with BOB OFFER-WESTORT from the Coalition on Homelessness about Gascon's proposed "Sit / Lie" law that would make it illegal to sit or lie on a public sidewalk. Who is this law really targeting and why? Is this just another Care-not-Cash-like wedge issue designed to hurt progressive Supervisoral candidates in swing districts this fall?
We'll also talk with some members of YOUNG WORKERS UNITED who have just released their "Dining with Justice 2010: A Guide to Guilt Free Eating." Hear who made it this brilliant booklet of "socially responsible restaurants that follow labor laws and treat their employees with dignity and respect."

No, you can't listen on 87.9 FM in SF because the FCC saw fit to fine us $10K for serving up commercial free, community-based radio.
