New video, audio, posts and news tweets for 10.27.10 @ http://LACityNews.com. Including video of Zuma Dogg BLASTING the CRAP COP who arrogantly and ignorantly harassed him off Venice Beach and into homelessness, in violation of FEDERAL LAW, after she claimed to merely be "enforcing the spirit of the law," by doing things like writing a ticket to someone for having a Hannah Montana cardboard display on the boardwalk for parents to take pictures of their kids with, while visiting Venice Beach. IS THAT NOT SPIRIT OF THE LAW?

Here's video of ZUMA DOGG DECLARING TIME FOR HIS OWN PUBLIC COMMENT (HE HEARD ENOUGHT) AS HE TAKES OVER THE MEETING!)  


Unfortunately, the dumb, arrogant, hostile, confused cop was writing tickets in violation of the United States Constitution. I WARNED L.A. CITY COUNCIL FOR YEARS AGO (ON TV), WHEN THIS SHIT FIRST JUMPED OFF...AND FOR YEARS, THEREAFTER...TO "SH*T-CAN" THAT CRAP COP & IGNORANT LOSER, PEGGY THUSIN. (She cost the city A LOT! And her non-spirit-of-the-law, LAW VIOLATIONS will cost the city MUCH MORE! SHE TAKES IT TOO PERSONAL. IT HAS CLOUDED HER OBJECTIVITY AND SHE GETS INTO PERSONAL PISSING MATCHES WITH MATT DOWD. What's HER excuse? I know HIS was to trap her into padding his damages, which video will prove she did...WALK INTO HIS TRAP. MORE TO COME ON THIS U.S. LAW SPIRIT VIOLATOR...BIG SHOT WITH A GUN AND BACKUP, BUT NOT A FUCKING CLUE ABOUT "SPIRIT OF THE LAW", PEGGY THUSIN!)

Vendors victorious in dust-up over Venice Beach rules

By The Associated Press (via http://www.firstamendmentcenter.org)


10.27.10 LOS ANGELES — A federal judge has struck down city regulations  governing who gets to sing and sell along crowded Venice Beach in Los  Angeles.

U.S. District Judge Dean Pragerson ruled last week that the city's  weekly lottery system for distributing permits to boardwalk vendors and  performers during the summer season violates the First Amendment.

Pragerson issued a temporary injunction, saying the city should issue permits on a first-come-first-served basis.

The judge also struck down a rule barring amplified sound and musical instruments between 9 a.m. and sunset in certain areas.

The city's 2008 ordinance, which was revised last year, was contested by 13 performers.
Plaintiff and street performer "Zuma Dogg" told the Los Angeles Times yesterday that the city should have changed the ordinance to address performers’ concerns.

"You have to pay a permit fee for free speech, and that's wrong," he was quoted by the newspaper as saying..

Los Angeles Times: Judge blocks Venice boardwalk permit system (City of Los Angeles Defeated In Federal Court by Legalease Dream Team of Matt Dowd & Zuma Dogg)

Los Angeles Times: Judge blocks Venice boardwalk permit system


The jurist says the lottery system for performers and sellers violates the 1st Amendment. He also strikes down a rule barring the use of musical instruments or amplified sound between 9 a.m. and sunset in designated areas.


U.S. District Judge Dean D. Pregerson issued the preliminary injunction last week, effectively stating that the city's permitting and lottery system for boardwalk performers and sellers violates the 1st Amendment.
The ruling involved a 2008 ordinance that required performers and vendors to seek permits to sing, dance and sell items along the boardwalk through a lottery system held between Memorial Day and Nov. 1.
In blocking the ordinance, Pregerson noted that the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals held that a similar permitting system in Seattle was unconstitutionally broad and only marginally regulated vendors, which the appeals court said could be achieved through "less intrusive means."
"There is no explanation as to why this system manages conflicting claims to limited space any more effectively than a simple first-come-first-served rule," Pregerson wrote in his 27-page ruling.
The judge also struck down a Los Angeles City Council rule barring the use of musical instruments or amplified sound between 9 a.m. and sunset in designated areas.
Street performer "Zuma Dogg", one of the plaintiffs in the challenge to the law, said Tuesday that the city was arrogant in refusing to tweak the ordinance to address their concerns."You have to pay a permit fee for free speech, and that's wrong," he said.

Dogg also took issue with confining amplified music to one condensed area.

The ordinance grew out of complaints by residents and business owners that unregulated vending affected the character, safety and economic vitality of the boardwalk.
