Rick Cole Taken to Task for His Actions on Council

There seems to be no end to Rick Cole’s on-going assault on the well-being of this town: from the Pay Grab to his gang-advocacy, he has evidenced a degree of irresponsibility unheard of in the 40 years I’ve lived here.

His intellectual bankruptcy continues to dribble almost daily: generational/ethnic slurs, sniveling over his treatment by the local press, attempts to destroy parade security and above all, a perverse, arrogant habit of setting himself up as some sort of political messiah on the City Council.

And Rick Cole becomes mayor of Pasadena in May--the final dishonored joke on our city.
