Dirty hippies belong in Newhall, don’t you know?
At first I was outraged at Petz’ outrage. But then I thought to myself, would I be welcoming if a bunch of elderly Santa Claritan Tea Party malcontents -waving signs about keeping the government’s hands out of Medicare and gun rights- showed up to protest on Lyons Avenue?
Well, I doubt that would happen. We’ve already established that most people in the SCV view anything south of Lyons as unsafe and brown, so I bet the Tea Party people would stay away from “gang infested Newhall” and go back to their old haunt in front of safe City Hall.
But if they did, I’d probably welcome them. And point. And snicker a little bit.
That said, I can see Petz’ point of view. If you value a safe, sleepy and ultra-boring place -where nothing interesting happens…ever- then Saugus is where you want to be. And so I’d like to extend an invitation to the #Occupy Santa Clarita crowd to leave Petz and his Saugus neighbors alone and head on down to Hart Park or Newhall Park and we’ll #Occupy Newhall!

Hey Petz, first amendment. Look it up.
He understands the First Amendment and was exercising it. Are you trying to stop him from exercising that right? Look it up.
Wait this is fun… Are you trying to stop todd from stopping Petz?
Nate, you catch on quickly – thank you. And yes it is fun.
Someone dropped the ball and broke the chain!
Not at all. I’m merely trying to get him to save his breath, his efforts, and his time. Really, I’m trying to do him a favor.
My “Spidey Senses” were tingling when I saw that Petz liked the Occupy Santa Clarita Facebook page.
This unfortunately points out Petz’ restrictive, marginalized point of view regarding “freedom for some.” “Some” being those who agree with Petz and Petz only.
Yes, you unwashed, uncouth malcontent RABBLE! Stay out of sleepy, whitebread Saugus. Save that park for the dogs…and crappy cover bands who play there!
Petz is beginning to sound like that crotchety old man who lives at the end of the street who constantly yells at kids to “Get off my lawn!”
Beginning?
Where have you been?
#GetOffMyLawn
Petz needs a reality check. Some of those 99% pissed off “malcontents” may be some of his own neighbors or family members. Maybe if kids saw that not everybody is satisfied with the way things are in their sanitized bubble of a city, they may ask the hard questions like: “Why?”
Petz may take advantage of the situation to bring public awareness to the health effects of artificial lighting.
The other are Alaskans?
who care about this stuff. if you do, get a life.
Why you no get off my lawn?
You can always tell it Sterling by the way he talk.
#Draper
This encapsulates all that I like about Petz, and all the ways he irks me. Pure Petzold. Thanks for the chuckle.
I wanted to apologize to Jeff for being quite rough yesterday, it was a rough day and I took it out on you. #MeaCulpa
UPDATE: LETS BOYCOTT BANKS AND CREDIT CARDS. OCTOBER 20TH DONT USE ANY CREDIT CARDS AND PULL YOUR BANK ACCOUNTS! TRANSFER YOUR FUNDS TO LOCAL BANKS! STOP CORPORATE GREED!
I love this post from Occupy Santa Clarita on fb. They are so cute… thinking that I actually have any credit or money
True that. My mattress runneth under!
Sorry, I’m down with USAA for my banking but then again I am an agent of The Man. KISS IT MALCONTENTS! lol
Transfer your funds to Credit Unions. They are non-profit and have pretty much all the services of a bank.
SCV Bank FTW!
Why is being a upper middleclass family a target? We are not rich. We just went to college and got jobs like we we were expected to do. We pay our bills & don’t get in debt. We live modestly with kid in college & save for retirement. We have a great gardener & housekeeper & pool guy who we pay well & respect. Each has been with us for 10+ years. Take us down & they will suffer too. Please leave us alone.
Valencia mom, do you realize that you are part of the 99% that should be angry right now? If you make less than $1 million/year and are arguing for no taxes on the rich, then you’ve been duped.
Or perhaps, she is just a rational person. But then I am sure by the standards of the current Administration, she is rich.
Valencia Mom-
What about those of us who did exactly everything you did the exact way you did it, and yet, we’re about 25 years younger, and are left holding the bag? Why did the “ME” generation of the 80s get to enjoy the spoils of profitability and now their children work just as hard, if not harder, to enjoy LESS prosperity.
This is about the fact that the Upper Middle Class may be a dying breed. There will be upper, there will be lower. Nothing left in the middle because the middle can’t keep up.
They never got the chance, since their jobs were outsourced by the 1% running things.
Perez is jealous and slightly offended that Petz doesn’t engage him in similarly thoughtful dialogue and only gets called an “ass.”
This just in ….the city of Santa Clarita is arranging for food trucks to be in place for Sundays event.
Food trucks find a way to be every event that exists in So Cal. Just waiting for the day when they start setting up shop uninvited at funerals, kinda like Westboro.
Except food trucks showing up unannounced will be much more acceptable than Westboro…
It totally depends on their name and how many stars they got on Yelp
Update….Marsha Mclean will speak at 3 pm about the need for more Arts in the community , high speed rail , chloride removal, and CEMEX.
They’ll want to make sure they keep their Macbooks at home in case the SWAT team unleash those futuristic, non-lethal crowd control weapons we see showcased occasionally on Discovery Channel. They play havoc on the electronics.
Attendees are reminded that Smoking is Prohibited in all city parks.
you mean cigarettes, right?
Left hand cigarettes….

Lucy is thinking the whole thing is a hoax based on the “friends” list. But she is good to go for Central Park all the time.
Oh Petz, I love you when you are ornery. Of course I will get extra glee knowing that you are up in the hills behind your cross in your camouflage observing the rabble that has intruded on your beige solitude.
I always enjoy a healthy civil picket-line and often see them near my house in Valencia where the grass is green, the roads are paved with milk and honey, and the speech is free. So come on down Petz with your tri-corner hat, but leave the chain-saw at home.
You have to se my new Morph suit.
The irony of this whole post and thread is that, without Petz’ interference, this would probably be a non-story. The Facebook page itself boasts only 163 “likes” (Petz included). Not to mention that what’s going on Sunday is a preliminary meeting to TRY and organize a future rally. I’m guessing it will be so small that Petz will need his astronomy telescope to pick it out.
Most of the “likes” are not even people-they are other #occupy groups. Please don’t say this was a trick-because Petz thought it was a treat.
oh crud! I had my tie dye and Birkenstocks all ready to go! Guess I can shave my legs today after all.
Are you saying that Petz is a Liberal plant?
#OccupyPetzYardAndTurnOnHisHose
LOL! I’m game!
Lucy is on guard for private property violators, and you better not mess with Petz hose.
Petz makes Perez giggle
Your Web Guru believes that Petz has Mr. Perez referring to himself in the third person!
We need to organize a group and call it the Society of the Third Party Odd Fellows Lodge.
Amended.
#OccupyPetzYardAndTurnOnHisHoseButFirstBringTreatsToDistractLucy
I could bring Ralphie to distract Lucy. He’s not a purebred, but the girls love him just the same… <3
I fully support any of the AstroTurf® movements like Occupy Wall Street.
