Regarding the Dec. 15 article, “Santa Barbara City Council Puts Temporary Stop to Changes at Flamingo Mobile Home Park,” the council’s decision to enact an emergency moratorium that prohibits the owners of the Flamingo Mobile Home Park to allow people of all ages to reside there raised two interesting points.
First, Councilman Eric Friedman’s comment that the owner’s intent to allow all ages to live in the park is somehow discriminatory to seniors is, to use his own words, a non sequitur.
If the seniors were to be
disallowed to live there, then that would be discriminatory. But to expand eligibility to all ages is definitely not discriminatory. If anything is discriminatory, the current situation discriminates against nonseniors.

Where do I start with the Canary’s Nov. 26 rant, “Way out there”? While this tweety bird is entitled to its opinion, it’s not entitled to its own facts.
First there is the fowl’s assertion that the 24th Congressional District “has been blue for its entire existence”; that is patently false (see the 24th District’s Wikipedia page). Elton Gallegly (R) served 10 years that’s five terms from 2003 to 2013 as he handily beat each of his opponents.
Maybe the Canary should read some of those papers in the bottom of the cage before going out on a limb.
