Who’ll Help if Rev. Drake Can’t?

* There is an old saying that as democracies grow older they become more and more tyrannical.
The Shakespearean comedy taking place with the Rev. Wiley Drake in Buena Park trying to help people is an outrageous verification of this ancient statement. The great American dream could be dying right here in Buena Park.

* Does the Buena Park city code, with respect to sheltering human beings who need help, have a quantity clause that stipulates that after a certain number of human beings are rendered homeless, then churches and other private institutions may take them in?
Let the city remember that when a natural disaster occurs, their policy toward a few is the same toward many.
For what you do to the least of mankind, you do to all mankind.
Just what is the magic cutoff number?
