I’m proud to support Rex Bohn as a county supervisor who has stood up for quality law enforcement and public safety in Humboldt County. By backing experienced and adequate deputies serving our community, Rex has shown that he understands the needs of the citizens in our county.As a long-time deputy sheriff I see how having qualified officers who are involved in the community is essential to a safe and happy community. We still struggle to fill vacant positions with qualified candidates. It’s essential that we provide the highest quality of public safety to our community that we can, and I truly appreciate Rex’s willingness to address the real need for adequate coverage for all of our neighborhoods.I support Rex and all of his his efforts to keep Humboldt County a safe and great place to live.  Jamie Barney, President of HDSO (Humboldt Deputy Sheriff’s Organization)

Move along nothing to see here. Just one crook supporting another crook.

It would appear that the HCSO has struggled for decades to “fill vacant positions with qualified candidates.”

Rex Bohn lacks the integrity , the character, and, the circumspection to be a County Supervisor.

He does have a flair for being a hillbilly, a good old boy, an ignorant hick, which gives him some “local boy” appeal and attraction, but his dishonest incompetence should have left him out of this race.

Rex Bohn appears incapable of progressive thought, and to lack the spirit of evolution needed in Humboldt.

Please, do not vote for this guy, as almost anyone else, would be a better option…

Paying Supervisors, politicians, and police officers well is one of the most powerful tools against corruption. I’m sure you’d have them paid less and thus highly incentivized to do favors/take bribes.

Well freedom, it’s like this. An outsider might form those opinions based on appearances. But when you get to know the real Rex Bohn you’ll realise what people are saying isn’t the real picture. Billy forgot to add that Rex is a spineless, two headed snake, who like most politicians aren’t actually for the good of the whole community just the part that agrees with him. Or in some cases consulting firms that want to sway the county policy to benefit themselves by taking advantage of farmers and then leaving town when they remembered that pot is STILL federally illegal. And you probably can’t bank a bunch of weed money back in Illinois.

Really he just seems like a pushover. Easy to influence by corporations and “out of county” contributions. Might be from Humboldt, might be a good ol’ boy hick from wherever, i don’t care. He’s still just a corrupt politician in my book. And i think we can do a lot better.

“How very nazi”. Hmm. Look at history smiley face . The nazis promised there people free stuff. The nazis blamed there unfortunate state on a certain group of white rich people who they eventually rounded up and slaughtered only after taken everything they worked for. The nazis preached that the rich were to blam and the poor were entitled to a better life only if they voted and supported for a socialist state. Propaganda was used to rile up the poor masses and turn neighbor against neighbor flashing news of the evil rich white man hoarding all the money as if they were the devil. The promise of “free stuff” and a better life blinded the poor huddled masses that genocide was actually going to help them. Soooo….. when you speak of nazis, look at our current democratic socialist party and it’s promises . Nazis. Hmmmmm yes they are everywhere . Take a look at your own words n actions before you use the word Nazi.
The left democratic socialist party is starting a new war, and its not a war on terrorism…..

All elected officials are elected to secure our rights.
Govt BY the people stance is as follows:

Amendment I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Amendment II
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

Amendment III
No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.

Amendment IV
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Amendment V
No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

Amendment VI
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence.

Amendment VII
In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law.

Amendment VIII
Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.

Amendment IX
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

Amendment X
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Anything that goes against any of our rights is repugnant to the constitution and is to be considered null and void.
We the people have a lot of nullifying to do.

It is still Gov’t BY the People. The People elect the officials by voting. When 38% of the voting public don’t vote the voting public is responsible. No one else, because there is no one else that gives them the power of office. If you don’t take part in elections and you do not vote you get what you deserve. BAD Politicians. Unless you are OK with a dictatorship or a King you CITIZENs are responsible to elect your leaders. And that requires becoming involved in elections and voting. You have a problem with that?? If you don’t like the way our leaders are elected move to a country that doesn’t require its citizens to take an active role in its election and voting for who they want to have the power to represent them. You have a long selection:

Afghanistan, Algeria, Angola, Azerbaijan
Bahrain, Belarus, Brunei, Burundi
Cambodia, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, China, Republic of Congo, Cuba
Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Ethiopia
Gabon
Iran, Iraq
Kazakhstan
Laos, Libya

What about the other amendments?

This copy and paste would be a throwback to where only rich white men have power.

More amendments were added over time in order to allow women, and everyone else to vote, own property, practice trades and to be a Citizen.

Kym Kemp would never have been able to do what she is doing until circa 1850’s in certain states.

But I bet you and Rex and Trump would love to go back to the good ol days.

Shak: just want to point out those are amendments that you listed. Amendments. Just like the one you listed (#7) that talks about ‘suits over $20’.. things change over time. Like the value of $20, and the need for ‘a well regulated militia’. Time for more amendments, which were designed to amend the constitution like an old blanket, throw out the parts that aren’t good anymore and change our country for the best.

Racist Rex the Anti-Mex should use “Mexican Radio” instead, since you already know Rex is going to clog up local right-wing radio’s airwaves with his idiotic campaign ads. Racist Rex Bohn hates Mexicans. Pill-popping junkie Rush Limbaugh hates Mexicans too. That’s what they call synergy! At least KINS Radio will get paid while racist Rex Bohn gets stomped in 2020.

Does racist Rex Bohn still find BLACKFACE to be “amusing “, in Rex’s racist words? Really, now. How stupid can one “man” be? Racist Rex is a dumbf**k. Reason enough to vote that klan member out of office in March.

You know what would be really amusing? Watching racist Rex cry his bloodshot eyes out after he loses on election night. Yes, it’s common knowledge racist Rex has a drinking problem, which is how his cronies tried to explain away his bigoted statement about Mexicans. “You can’t take Rex seriously when he’s been drinking”, they said. So, in other words, Rex can never be taken seriously.

Not if progressives, liberals, moderates, and conservatives with a clue and conscience pony up some campaign cash for Cliff! Run Cliff Run! I’ve got $100 with your name on it. All it would take is 1000 local citizens giving $100 each to Cliff’s campaign & racist Rex the Republitard can choke on a tamale come Election Day in March. $100,000 would defeat disgusting dumbass Supervisor Bonehead in a massive landslide. $50,000 would probably even be enough & that would only take 500 donors. Cliff, when you announce be sure to make a point of giving out your e-mail & mailing addresses so I can spread the word and we can make this happen. I don’t know Cliff, but I’ve heard he’s a good man who is intelligent and NOT a racist or a drunkard like the incumbent 1st District County Supervisor racist Rex who should have dropped out while that Bonehead still had a chance of avoiding further self-inflicted embarrassment & humiliation, not to mention a devastating defeat at the polls in March.

Or do you all still believe that lost Coast outpost was just doing a hit piece and making it all up about mccloskey’s embezzlement charges from the Pomo Indians or mccloskey lying under oath or all of his other “Walter Mitty “ lies. Talk about not being fit …..but since mccloskey claimed to be a “Progressive “ that was good enough for you.
Sungnome madrone endorsed mccloskey and was working on his “talking points” Patrick O’Rourke was mccloskeys campaign manager, and north coast people’s alliance endorsed and threw their support behind him in spite of all of them knowing about mccloskeys embezzlement and theft and lying charges. They all ran for cover when mccloskey was exposed as an embezzler,
They did not have ONE thing to say about WHY they were supporting such a dishonest character, they all ran for cover.

Crime, homelessness, etc. are rampant in our County! And Rex, if you have to try this hard to show you are worthy to be on the team by these staged media rallies, letters of recommendation, etc. it shows me a lack of confidence and strength necessary to be a leader of great character.

Bye bye rex

Of course he is.
How else will they get to continue the good ole boy network of lining sheriffs pockets with peoples cash they seize&dont report?

Rex did nothing when the sheriffs were caught illegally selling dead peoples estate items to one another out of the coroners office. Hes their protector. Theyll fuck you over in a second if youre not in their club.

If someone else gets elected how will they get to not come to home breakins, not investigate murders of any citizen besides their buddies, get to deputize loggers to beat up and point guns threatening to kill enviro activists, not investigate bulgarians cuz theyre “too afraid” of them, not get more tax bills passed because they “dont have enough deputies” to patrol even after they’ve hired at least 15 new ones, not get to take bribes to look the other way on human trafficking, not get to pick&choose which crimes they investigate….i could go on but you get the picture. Everything in quotes ive personally been told by multiple sheriffs.

Maybe a bunch of us ought to move to his district just to oust him or pay other folks to do that, its how politics works these days.

Dont forget folks, the ENTIRE board besides Steve madrone voted to give themselves a pay raise (cuz $90,000 each/year wasnt enough) at the same meeting they denied county in home care providers a raise from $11 to $13 an hour. Madrone said he wouldn’t take a raise if the care providers didnt get one.

Lets oust this super corrupt board of supes, just the mess at the DA office that they created with Fleming should have every citizen ousting their rep that was involved in that situation.
Seriously read up on it!!!!

And the BS money making schemes Rex has going with buddies in the planning dept. Madrone called them out too when they started re-zoning private property after no direct contact with land owners, just a small note in the back of journal about the meeting. Madrone commented that he had legal proof at least 2 folks on the planning commission were gonna make millions off the re-zoning.
They basically shut down the meeting & havent tried again since. I dont know Steve but i do know these are the things i want to see in a supervisor! !!

So heres to singing
Hey hey goodbye to rex&cronies.

Here I sit on the birth day of our country, listening to my fellow country men fighting with each other, divided, hell i bet if some of you could get away from it, youd probably outright murder some of these people you argue with. As a Marine, it saddens me that i become disabled, for a country just itching to tear itself apart from the inside out……but hey happy 4th…

Hey, I’m not the one who falsely claimed (FAKE NEWS!) the Continental Army “took the airports” during the Revolutionary Way. But of course, what else would you expect from an ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE like Benedict Donald.

Go Cliff Go! No story on this blog about Berkowitz’s candidacy? Seriously?

P.S. – Rex Bohn is a racist loser. 🐘💩
