This thesis studies the rise of violence in SLO, its causation, and effects. The vigilance committee of 1858 represents the culmination of the violence that came from sweeping changes in the region, stemming from its earliest conquest by the Spanish. The mounting violence built upon itself as extensive changes took place. These changes include the conquest of California, from the Spanish mission period, Mexican and Alvarado revolutions, Mexican-American War, and the Gold Rush. The history of the county is explored until 1863 to garner an understanding of the borderlands violence therein. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Page CHAPTER INTRODUCTION…………………………………………………………... 1 PART I - CAUSATION…………………………………………………… 12 HISTORIOGRAPHY……………………………………………........ 12 BEFORE CONQUEST………………………………………..…….. 21 WAR……………………………………………………………..……. 36 GOLD RUSH……………………………………………………..….. 42 LACK OF LAW…………………………………………………….…. 45 RACIAL DISTRUST………………………………………………..... 50 OUTSIDE INFLUENCE………………………………………………58 LOCAL CRIME………………………………………………………..67 CONCLUSION……………………………………………………….

The letter has many inaccuracies and does not understand the process the City used, i.e., the emergency ordinance adopted by the City Council, however, it does threaten legal action against the City if you vote to remove and store the statue. Without commenting publicly on the merit or lack of merit of these claims, I want to suggest that there is a separate and independent basis for its removal and storage at this time-security and safety of the statue itself.

Control of Alta California shifted to Mexico in the 1820s and to America in the 1840s. Some of the communities that grew around the missions became major cities; some missions were abandoned and later reconstructed. Portions of El Camino Real, the road connecting the missions, became interstate or state highways. Mission San Juan Bautista was the fifteenth mission to be established, in 1797. Despite repeated damage from earthquakes on the adjacent San Andreas Fault, Mission San Juan Bautista was never moved from its original location and has been in continuous use as a church since its establishment. Its environs are still largely agricultural, its plaza has been restored to the spirit of its 1870 state, and its adjacent portion of El Camino Real is still unpaved.

  • Report to the People of God
    ADDENDUM TO THE REPORT TO THE PEOPLE OF GOD On February 17, 2004, the Archdiocese published its Report to the People of God: Clergy Sexual Abuse Archdiocese of Los Angeles 1930-2003. The Report was an essential part of the Archdiocese’s ongoing effort to promote healing and reconciliation for victims, their families, and the entire Church community, all of whom suffered as a result of sexual abuse by priests, deacons, members of religious orders and others serving our Archdiocese over the years. In detail, the Report explained procedures that the Archdiocese had put in place to safeguard our children by dealing forcefully with abuse. The Report also set out, without attempt to excuse mistakes that were made, the often painful history of how the Archdiocese’s understanding of the problem of sexual abuse evolved over the years, from the time when it was treated primarily as a moral weakness and a sin to the adoption, in 2002, of a firm policy of zero tolerance. This Addendum is an update to the Report. It has three sections: · The first section provides the most current information about the many educational programs and training sessions the Archdiocese has developed and implemented to safeguard children and how we are dealing with reports of abuse. · The second section consists of a list of 26 priests with allegations of sexual abuse against them that have come to our attention since the Appendix to the Report was last updated. For the sake of full disclosure and transparency, the Archdiocese continues to list all priests who have been accused with evidence that if true would constitute child sexual abuse, even when law enforcement or the Clergy Misconduct Oversight Board have found the charges to be unsubstantiated.
