pussy riot

Q: Why did the chicken cross the road?
A: To prove to the possum it could actually be done!

Chick fil A controversy drives Santa Barbara to the brink! ABR thumbs nose at Christian conservatives!!

SB city council pussies Hotchkiss and Rowse call for ABR resignations for no logical reasons...Putin tweets support..Mayor throws hissy fit!! consumers running round like chickens with their heads cut off!!!

but hey....the folks on the ABR have as much a right to free speech as that bigoted asshole Chick Fil a CEO Dan Cathy!!

while many have clucked at the SB ABR for speaking freely, I congratulate them! so a few members had issues with the Chick fil a business and refused to vote on the new restaurant in SB where Burger King once resided...so what...maybe they thought the restaurant didn't fit in with Santa Barbara standards..how about a KKK restaurant.....would the folks who support Chick Fil A support a KKK restaurant under the same free speech argument?

and Frank Hotchkiss can't tell the ARB what or how to think..who the fuck does he think he is, Hitler?? we all have free speech rights, not just conservative bigots and jellyspined liberals....

PURPOSE:

The original Architectural Board of Review (ABR), formed in 1925, operated for only nine months. Discontinued for over two decades, the ABR was re-established in 1947 by ordinance, and in 1967 as a Charter Board.

General Functions

Insures that high standards of design are maintained in development and construction in the City of Santa Barbara.

Protects and preserves, as nearly as practicable, the natural charm and beauty of Santa Barbara, including the historical style, qualities, characteristics of the buildings, structures and architectural features associated with and established by its long, illustrious and distinguished past.

Reviews, approves, conditionally approves or disapproves all applications for commercial, industrial, multi-family except in El Pueblo Viejo Landmark District or other landmark districts or a designated Landmark.....

so everything is open to interpretation and to protect the natural charm and beauty of Santa Barbara including the historical style and qualities..well that includes who is doing business here....how many new businesses and buildings do Santa Barbarans want that promote the ignorance and bigotry of the CEO??

so all the calls for resignation of the ABR members who chose to exercise their rights of free speech are nonsense.....Chick Fil a won't make or break Santa Barbara and a GOOD JOB to the ABR for really looking out for the aesthetic values of Santa Barbara which can't be separated from the character of the person promoting anti-civil rights!!!

rock on ABR!!!

Q: Why did the chicken cross the road halfway?
A: She wanted to lay it on the line.
