Burial Business
Interesting look at those who call Colma their final resting place: I really enjoyed Joe Eskenazi's article on Colma ["Last Stop," feature, 1/14]. It was a great story on the history of the relationship between San Francisco and Colma and the evolution of how people bury the dead. I'm personally against burial of any kind but I know old habits die hard — no pun intended.

It's expensive after getting a DUI: It's pretty easy to get a DUI and it's not worth the risk ["SF Cops To Go After Drunks Tonight," Erin Sherbert, The Snitch, 1/23]. The driver loses his license for 30 days, he has to pay for DUI school, fees to the DMV to get a restricted license, figuring out transportation to work during the suspension, whether or not to get a lawyer, hassling the DA for a court date, traveling to and from a court appearance, taking time off work to take care of all these things. If someone is going to decide to drive [after having a drink] at least have a breathalyzer because DUIs can be easily avoided. Good luck.

Blog post doesn't get at the heart of the matter: This writer seems focused on inciting further issues rather than actually tackling inequality and discrimination ["Saturday's Protest in the Castro for Queer People of Color Got a Little Ugly," Pete Kane, The Snitch, 1/21]. What's the takeaway — that middle-class Caucasians are disgusted with disruptive behavior or that bar attendees should put their drinks down and riot in the streets? This article is extremely short-sighted and unfortunately offers nothing productive to the community or the equality movement.

He's not that bad: Kid Rock might not be a saint, but the writer is making him look much worst than he is ["5 Reasons Kid Rock is the (Absolute Fucking) Worst," Rae Alexandra, All Shook Down, 1/21]. In fact, most of what you say is complete B.S.
