Well said, Mark! An utterly embarrassing display of white fragility, thoughtlessness, and political ineptitude all rolled into one.

This is great advice, Patrick! I, for one, would truly enjoy seeing Foster City get sued by the state over housing element non-compliance, a la Huntington Beach. Terrific outcome.

You'd have to be pretty out of touch to think that. What it means is that the old, wealthy, white homeowners of San Mateo have temporarily won the fight to make it harder to build apartments in our city.
