Kim, the arcata police press release i saw posted 40 minutes ago only listed Andrew Garcia as the gang member. “During the traffic stop, the rear passenger of the vehicle, Ronald Joshua Loureiro (age 29) from Arcata, was taken into custody on a parole warrant. The front passenger, Cierra Rebeccah Lee Oscar (age 24) from Klamath, was found to be on probation for narcotics and weapons related violations and was searched per the terms of her probation. Officers located about one half ounce of methamphetamine on her person as well as paraphernalia related to the ingestion of methamphetamine. The driver of the vehicle, Andrew Garcia (age 29), a validated Norteno gang member from San Jose, was found to have a loaded .40 caliber handgun concealed in his waistband.

It’s seems you are a Mexican that had a concealed weapon, I’m guessing the weapon is illegal, that was driving a vehicle with a a known gang member and transporting digital scales, packaging materials, meth and a meth pipe. That’s it, no racial profiling is needed. Replace a Mexican with a white guy and you still get the same conclusion. ALL meth dealers are nothing but parasitic pieces of fecal matter.

So your referring to gang enhancements as a way of being validated funny thing is I’ve never been validated nor have I ever had any gang related crimes in the past from my home county the only crime I committed was being a Mexican with money in a racist community you can argue this all you want the proof is in the pudding
If you would like to discuss this faulty case against me more in dept let me know I will give my number to anyone nothing to hide.

Attitude might have some bearing on your complaints too. Like no one else has ever been caught up in error because the past experience of police has been ugly.

Humboldt State University is quickly approaching an enrollment that is 35% Hispanic or Latino.

Should we really be surprised that the Mexican-American gang element has arrived in Humboldt?

With Los Angeles serving as Humboldt State University’s new cash cow — surely this trend will not end anytime soon.

Where are from or is it you don’t get out much? There are over 15 million latinos in California they out number whites. Of course HSU has a Latino enrollment around 35%. And another one for all the xenophobes out there is that there’s more Bulgarians in California than any other state. So watch out the Bulgarian enrollment is sure to increase at HSU. Keep on smoking that white lives matter pipe and keep the doors and windows locked, they’re coming to get you and steal your whiteness.

Latino and whiteness are not mutually exclusive. Racism and latino are not mutually exclusive. Trolling on the other hand is pretty universal.

“According to 2015 US Census Bureau estimates, California’s population was 72.9% White, 6.5% Black or African American, 14.7% Asian, 1.7% Native Americans, 0.5% Pacific Islander and 3.8% from two or more races. … Hispanics are the largest ethnic group in California.”
They are still a minority.

I remember when in some states deadheads were prosecuted as ” gang members”. Over-reaching cops and prosecutors weaken our justice system. But in this case- real violent gang, good job APD! Hope our county court will now make a stand! ( Tho Im not holding my breath)

Klamath woman…goodness gracious!!!

Just drove through the area a few weeks ago…beautiful, quiet, simple.

The load these lovelies were found with was enough to send the whole lil 200 plus population town of Klamath into full tweeker status.

Pretty far from any LEO’S even if you did call to report it or needed help chances are your dead or the freaks n creeps are long gone before any “help” would arrive.

Glass D**#! For meth, crushed oxy or base. Which around here “meth” is used lightly because often times things that are called methamphetamines have no amphetamines in them and are pesticides pcbs and god-knows-what other stuff crushed up.
