"Why don't you Santa Cruz people stay out of Watsonville, because the people of Watsonville love their police department!"

Which 'people' of Watsonville are you talking about? Every one that we talked to - including a man that stuck his head out of his window to watch the girl get cited for honking her horn once - didn't have anything good to say about Watsonville's police.

Part of the problem is that Santa Cruz people HAVE been staying out of Watsonville. We need to start acting in solidarity with our neighbors.

More than a dozen police remained on both days when it was very obvious that no large-scale action was going to take place. Waste of money and unneeded intimidation.
