Sound-off |
- “Why USC and not a black college, Dr. Dre?”, More Likely, Why Should Dr. Dre do this when the Traditional Black colleges have failed?
- Both Candidates for Mayor of Los Angeles Wendy Greuel and Eric Garcetti have the Endorcement of Past and Present Black Elected Leaders who are deceitful, hypocrites, and most of all a disgrace to the essence of what it means to be elected officials!
- The Only Individuals Fooled by Obama are Morehouse College Graduates and Other Uniformed Individuals who Respect this Charlatan. President Barack Obama is a liar and a disgrace to the Office of the Presidency!
- Unlike far too many U.S. born Black leaders or other prominent Blacks, other ethnic groups are less likely to betray his or her own community, heritage, trash a career, or be so un-American, deceitful, dysfunctional, and/or treasonous!
- Makia Smith you definitely have more sense than many Black elected officials, black lawyers, multiple members of the Congressional Black Caucus, many Black police officers, and misguided Black nationalists!
Black History What, Who, or Whom??? Today’s Elected Black Leaders Trash the Essence of Black History by Being Inept, Sleazy & Treasonous! With Good Reason I Only Respect the History or Deeds of the Few and Far Between Who Truly Step Up to the Plate!

The Honorable Dianne Feinstein, Senator
331 Hart Senate Office Building
This Serious Matter Can or Will Soon Involve Penalties for non-Payment of taxes to a Federal Agency, the IRS and/or the California State Franchise Board, a State Agency.
Dear Senator Feinstein:
On January 19, 2013, I received 2012 form 1099-R from the LADWP which shows in "box 2a" a taxable amount of $30,515.40, and a Federal income tax being withheld in the amount of $922.20. To date, I have yet to receive or make use of a dime of the $30,515.40, and worse yet this document is not based on the truth. On March 12, 2009, after 30 years of employment with the LADWP, I was discharged minus all retirement benefits, which is just as true today as on March 12, 2009. I have yet to affix my signature on any vested retirement document and doing so would be against my best interests. It is an act of fraud for any government agency to knowingly and intentionally make use of the U.S. Postal Service to mail false or fraudulent documents. In filing any tax return, I only pay taxes on income truly received.
I have no intention of filing any tax document to reflect an additional $31, 542.84 in gross income distribution, for a taxable amount of 30, 515.40 to pay taxes to the IRS, a Federal Agency or any state tax amount to the California State Franchise Board. Since the IRS and the California State Franchise Board place penalties on taxpayers for unpaid taxes, this will be contested because I refuse to pay taxes on income not received.
Since August 25, 2010, I have not received a "Water and Power Employees Retirement Plan Retirement Membership System Annual Member Statement" or equivalent financial statement from the Water and Power Employees Retirement Plan Section to show the status of LADWP employee retirement earnings, contributions, etc., etc., which is also a serious infringement on my property rights. I receive quarterly and annual financial statements from every private industry Banking Institution that I have ever had an account with to provide documentation for my financial savings, checking, withdrawals, interest earned, stock market earnings, etc., yet the LADWP retirement section has even failed me here.
" I want to be as helpful as possible. However, the problem you have outlined regarding Los Angeles Department of Water and Power appears to be one that can only be resolved by your local city or county government. I recommend you get in touch with either your Council Member or County Supervisor, and discuss your case with either, or both, of their offices."- Correspondence dated August 19, 2011, a copy of which is enclosed.
Issues left unresolved or blatant atrocities of bad government:
Ø Through formal correspondence and by verbal statements, both my Mom and I, have formally petitioned 10th District LA City Councilman Herb Wesson, 2nd District LA County Supervisor Mark Ridley Thomas, Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, and other public servants, about me not receiving LADWP retirement benefits.
Ø Longstanding and unresolved, Los Angeles Superior Court Case 895188, where the Defendants the LAUSD have admitted guilt.
Ø Superior Court Case BC385899-The perjured testimony of Los Angeles City Attorney Lisa Berger and CC, Article 6, Section 19 demands that Judge Mark Mooney render a decision, and to date I have yet to receive this.
Ø The Demur to Los Angeles Superior Court Case 10K18049-LA Superior Court Clerk Delores Odom Stocks signed a "default court judgment", when court clerks do not have this authority. Judge Steven Kleifield, the Judge of court of record, being the only qualified court official qualified to render a court decision, and by CC, Article 6, Section 19 demands this be done, and to date I have yet to receive this.
Ø Sacramento Superior Court Case 34 2011-00109374, Judge Shellyanne W. L. Chang, Article 6, Section 19 demands that Judge Shellyanne W. L. Chang render a decision, and to date I have yet to receive this.
Ø Los Angeles Superior Court Criminal Court Case #1CA17487, my good reputation is still good in spite of being convicted and placed on probation in the Kangeroo Court Trial, before Judge Yvette Verastegui
Ø California Appellate Court Case BR 050017 appeal court documents contest and disprove the decision of Judge Yvette Verastegui in Case #1CA17487.
These issues can only be resolved by elected officials who respect the oath of office and other government employees who respect the U.S. Constitution, "The Bill of Rights", the California Constitution, and the rule of law to serve law abiding U.S. born descendants of slavery like me. The very individuals to whom you referenced, in the correspondence dated August 11, 2011, who should have been the first to respond and take action to resolve these issues, are of my same ethnic background, have no respect for the Constitutional rights of people like me, and this is the problem. 2nd District Los Angeles County Supervisor Mark Ridley Thomas, 10th District Los Angeles City Councilman Herb Wesson- effected a "citizen's arrest" to have my Mom, Mrs. Esther M. Lofton arrested and jailed by the LAPD, Deputy Public Defender Sherise Francis-stated to me "forget about the Constitution, keep it simple" the result being an unearned conviction in Criminal Court case 1CA17487, Superior Court Clerk Delores Odom Stocks- signed a court judgment at my expense, District Attorney Jackie Lacey, California Attorney General Kamala Harris, etc., etc., have been petitioned to resolve these serious issues, yet to date, to no avail.
Once again, I'm faced with having LADWP utility workers disconnecting Electricity and Water service at my residence, for non-payment of LADWP utility bills, all while the LADWP continues to hold all my earned retirement benefits, and while elected officials sworn under oath and mandated by law to uphold the California Constitution fail to be competent and responsible elected representatives. This is "Taxation Without Competent Representation".
Sincerely,
Michael L. Lofton

With the exception of the unethical, treasonous, and un-American acts of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, none of this Un-American activity targeting law abiding U.S. born descendants of slavery is the fault of the Republican Party, any Republican Party elected official, because the disgraceful, un-American, sleazy, blatantly inept, and treasonous are in fact in jurisdictions where the Democratic Party is large and charge, through elected black leaders who have contempt for the Oath of Office, the U.S. Constitution, and the California Constitution.
“NAACP President on Incoming GOP Sen. Tim Scott: ‘We Have Republicans Who Believe in Civil Rights ..He is Not One of Them”” by YourBlackWorld
Selected Comments:
“Yes, I hate all Black republicans. They are traitors to us Blacks. Look what Herman Cain called us – brain washed with low IQs – that included his wife Gloria. In fact Cain disavowed to be African-American. He thought his ancestors came from England. All his friends were rich republicans such as Koch Brothers. He thought he was accepted by Republican, a predominantly white org. They let him down by revealing he was groping white women. Remember Allen West. He preferred Blacks on cotton or tobacco plantations than us being free to choose our destiny. Last election he lost. Now he is coming to his senses. Republicans distanced themselves from West. Don’t forget Michael Steele. Republicans cajoled him to defeat Obama in 2008. So Steele talked bad about candidate Obama. When Obama won the election Republicans dumped Steele as unwanted. Now he wants to be a democrat. But Steele had abandoned Blacks and President Obama. These are hypocrites-these Blacks love to sell fellow Blacks to rich republicans. I don’t like them.”-Pastori Balele
“Pastori Balele`Wow!!!!!, Hate is a strong word. I do not HATE all democrats. I am a Republican my values are different, than yours. I have seen over 30 years of how the inter-cities of Los Angeles County has become so corrupt and welfare driven. You’re not telling the whole picture of the REAL PROBLEMS of 10th District LA City Councilman Herb Wesson, Congresswoman Karen Bass, Congresswoman Maxine Waters, 2nd District Supervisor Mark Ridley Thomas, etc., etc., is we do not hold them accountable for their representation of the people in doing their JOB. Yet you are other DEM-O-CRAPS keep voting them in office as it they were celebrates who you want as your friend. Though out the black urban cities we continue to not HOLD ANY OF THESE DEM-O-CRAPS response of doing THEIR JOB. You keep the spot light off of the devastating destructive ways they have ran our communities for the last 30 to 40 years and we see no wealth or infrastructure being completed and done IN THE COMMUNITIES. DEM-O-CRAPS play a policy game on BLACK PEOPLE and you keeping about REPUBLICANS? YOU ARE A JOKE. Who cares about Michael Steele, Herman Cain these men are political activists.
Imagine living in a demilitarized war zone, an environment where helicopters circle your neighborhood for hours every night. Imagine a place that has regular car chases, a neighborhood where football stadiums leave their lights on all night for safety. City leaders and the police tell you that—because of the crime in that part of the city—the lights must be left on. Imagine feeling powerless, with little hope for any sense of normalcy. Imagine how demoralizing and depressing your life would be, parents simply wanting to get their children “the hell out” to raise them in a normal life.
It’s not imaginary. It’s real. Welcome to District 35 in inner city Los Angeles, California—also known as Area 51.
The original Area 51 is a military installation, a remote area of Nevada’s Edwards Air Force Base. Its primary purpose is to support development and testing of experimental aircraft and weapons systems. Those who have worked there have had the highest security classifications. Their work is shrouded in secrecy, its very existence the stuff of speculation. Urban leaders in the inner cities are no different. They do not want us to know and see the real truth. When outsiders such as The Tea Party try to assist our communities, they are told, “The Tea Party can go straight to hell!”
They are forced to stay out of our communities by these Urban 51ers. These isolationist techniques have been implemented and integrated into urban communities for more than forty years via the oppression of—and concealment of information from—inner city homeowners and residents. What these residents, brainwashed by the oppressive techniques of the Urban 51ers, fail to realize is that they can have better; better if they could only understand that by using their unknown power—power that should be used to vote in fresh Republican leaders—they could radically change their world. The 51ers prevent them from knowing that.” by Shirley Husar

“By and large, misfit Living in La La Land liberals affiliated with Democratic Party elected officials hold office in communities where I live and pay property taxes, or formerly resided, and not Republicans, Conservatives, or even Conservative Democrats. No good 10th District LA City Councilman Herb Wesson, Congresswoman Karen Bass, Congresswoman Maxine Waters, 2nd District Supervisor Mark Ridley Thomas, etc., etc., and the like are the elected officials, who hold office in jurisdictions where people like me live, and not Republican or Conservative Party affiliated elected officials…Your anger and frustration is being directed at individuals who are not responsible for keeping Democratic Party controlled jurisdictions in poverty. The majority of U.S. born black men and women reside and vote in “high unemployment-high crime-taxation without competent representation” jurisdictions where few if any Republican Party elected officials hold office.” by Michael Lofton
*******************************************
-Indeed Ms. Husar.
I do believe that far too often, U.S. born blacks make the mistake of using the voting process as a popularity contest, as opposed to voting for an elected official based upon the belief or knowledge that the individual voted for will respect the Constitution, the “oath of office”, without respect to political party affiliation, i.e., Democratic, Republican, Tea Party, Conservative, Liberal, or other affiliation if an elected official has contempt for the “oath of office”, the Constitution, the Rule of Law, etc., then he or she must be removed from political office by any means necessary.

The Republican Party also has at least one "sellout" and prominent black official who has been selling out the black community for decades, namely siding with rogue police officers and unethical city prosecutors while betraying law abiding black men or women egregiously violated by government no good U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-883427
For decades, Washington, DC, Baltimore, MD, Los Angeles, CA, Compton, CA, New Orleans, LA, Oakland, CA, etc., etc., to where U.S. born blacks reside, are subjected to “Taxation without Competent” Representation.
*********************************************
Oath of Office: "I, (President, Supreme Court Justice, Congressperson, Assemblyman, County Board of Supervisor's Member, Mayor, City Councilperson, Judge, ), during such times as I hold the office, I, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States (the Constitution of the State of California, Maryland, Illinois, etc., etc.), against all enemies foreign (terrorist enemies of the U.S., illegal immigrants, un-American or un-Constitutional anything and everything, etc.) and domestic (treasonous individuals or organizations, any Police Chief who condones this and the Police Chief's rogue police officers, unethical or criminal elected officials or public servants, illegal aliens or his or her advocates, un-American anything and everything), and that I will bear true faith and allegiance, to the Constitution of the United States , (State Constitution), and that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion, and that I will faithfully discharge the duties upon which I am about to enter."

“There are cases where an individual has been wrongfully treated by his government and about the only way, unless the individual resorts to court, and even in some cases the courts are not able to give proper relief, the only area or avenue open to the individual is through his representative. When you find a bona fide error has been made, I suggest that you make a maximum effort to remedy it. This I feel is a vital and important function of those of us in the House of Representatives”.

(The above excerpt “The Job of the Congressman” holds true for all elected office officials)

"Once again, I'm faced with having LADWP utility workers with armed LAPD escorts, without the benefit of the first warrant that give any of these individuals the right to set foot on my property (the utility pole is on my property), disconnecting Electricity and Water service at my residence, for non-payment of LADWP utility bills, all while the LADWP continues to hold all my earned retirement benefits", and while elected officials sworn under oath and mandated by law to uphold the California Constitution fail to be competent and responsible elected representatives.

...which means here you have elected officials, specifically 10th District LA City Councilman Herb Wesson, LADWP utility workers, LAPD personnel, and other government employees who have no respect for the U.S. Constitution, the California Constitution, and the property rights of law abiding U.S. born descendants of slavery, like me.
