Michael Jones, owner of the Cachagua General Store and a key figure in the relief efforts during the wildfire, observed the illness and the 66-year-old man’s suicide were tragic, “but our folks lost everything.” “If I were them, I would be out in Cachagua waving around my checkbook,” he said. “Come to think of it, I am NOT them, and I am out in Cachagua waving around my checkbook.” Some were surprised, and a few, angry, that the family opted to communicate through a PR firm rather than directly to the community that also suffered the consequences of McAlpine’s death, albeit in a very different way. Wyatt said the McAlpines plan to help provide relief to fire victims, though she didn’t say how.

Her supporters at Wednesday’s press conference included water activists Ron Weitzman and George Riley — both ardent opponents of Cal Am and its proposed desal plant — and Glenn Robinson, who led an unsuccessful effort to incor- porate Carmel Valley.

FROM THE perspective of 21st century America, the treatment of American Indians at the hands of the pioneers and settlers who paved the way for the United States to expand all the way across the continent seems unbelievably cruel and brutal. Indisputably, by modern standards, Junipero Serra was a crim- inal and a racist. On the other hand, so was practically everybody else who lived in the 18th century. By our standards, every school teacher in the old days abused his or her students, most parents physically endangered — if not pur- posely injured — their children, and many husbands sadistically mistreated their wives. The military intentionally harmed its soldiers, every prison was a place of torture, there was no justice in the courts, churches were full of bigots, hos- pitals were places you went to get sick and die, all doctors were quacks, phar- macies sold nothing but snake oil, and much of the food was horribly tainted and dangerous. Etc., etc., etc. And have we mentioned slavery? Judging the past by the standards of the present is a pointless exercise. What people did long ago is worth studying not so we can decide whether we like it or not, but so we can improve ourselves today. And vandalism of a church ceme- tery is hardly what we would call improvement. Saying no to chocolate

IF THE planning commission doesn’t want a candy store to move into the storefront on Dolores Street where a well known chocolate shop on Fisherman’s Wharf wanted to open a Carmel outlet, it had every right to say so. Making deci- sions like that is what the planning commission is for. “So, now tell us about YOUR problems with the planning commission.” However, the way the planning commission denied the candy store’s permit last week was egregiously unfair, and the city council should find a way to grant balcony railing, there was little of the archi- tect’s signature designs. The house was in the permit anyway.
