*By Randy Walburger Santa Monica*

Why not be fair and have a homeless column where poor people can have a voice to speak back to your one-sided coverage? Your paper distorts reality viciously when you have just one attack dog (Bill Bauer) and no one from the homeless perspective speak.

It’s so easy to attack the poor, either through your nastyselection of letters, i.e. Lori Emerson et al or your regular home bigot Bauer.

Today he said there are 3,000 homeless people in Santa Monica. That is a lie and you know it!
