Mayor Breanna Lungo-Koehn
Human Rights Commission
Medford City Hall
Medford, MA 02155

To Breanna Lungo-Koehn and Neil Osborne, Esq:

When the Acting Director of Human Resources / Diversity Director, Mr. Osborne, did nothing to halt 

the elder abuse by members of the city council, 

specifically former city councilor Frederick N. 

Dello Russo, Jr., and the current president and 

vice president of the council, VP Adam Knight and

President Richard F. Caraviello, it is the sort 

of hypocrisy we expect from a Lindsey Graham 

or Mitch McConnell. 

It's like the ghost of former human rights commission 

member, Leo A. Sacco, Jr., coming back 

to haunt city hall again.

But with no true media in this community, 

the squelching of free speech on the access 

channel by ex solicitor Mark E. Rumley,

and the weak efforts of Wicked Local/Medford 

Transcript and the Medford Patch 

with little or no investigation into

wrongful conduct by disruptive members of 

the police force or city hall itself, 

 government officials get away with this nonsense.

With 249 days to election day, Nov 2, 2021, 

a woman I admired and have found great 

disappointment with,

Breanna Lungo-Koehn, 

just doesn't appear to have the aptitude 

to solve the intense discrimination against

certain elders, homosexuals and others.  

So the woman with a convicted felon as vice chair of her school committee is going to solve discrimination

problems?  With the involvement of a fellow I consider highly negligent as Acting Director of Human Resources / Diversity Director?

When our friend Neil couldn't deal with the elder abuse by the city council, what magic wand will he and Breanna wave in

a city that wants NO DISCUSSION of pertinent matters?

Get real.

Neil's a nice enough guy but with a new administration, all due respect to Mike Nestor, Patrick Gordon,

Chief Jack Buckley, Neil Osborne, Rick Caraviello and the same/old same old same old same old,

we needed an entirely new crew, the way that President Joe Biden signed executive order after executive

order to remove the bigotry and hostility that the highly un-American Trump installed

Not calling Buckley, Osborne, Nestor, Gordon, 

Caraviello LLC bigots; saying that they had their

turn and it DOES become a swamp if these are jobs for life.  

They shouldn't be.

You complain about McGlynn giving 10 year deals 

to his buddies at Comcast and his new found friends

at Waste Management and (are they still?) Republic 

Parking, but city hall doesn't police its own by

NOT allowing 10 years or more that Rumley had, 

that purportedly Diane McLeod relished, that

unethical bad man Edward P Finn and

other problem people enjoyed - at the expense of your constituents, Breanna.

Breanna being an attorney AND one who enjoyed over a decade in office, should know better.

What a sin.

LET THE PEOPLE SPEAK AND BE HEARD

You can't shut down conversation, have 700 pages of Rumley nonsense to abide by to join a PUBLIC access station,

in the city of Medford where Police Chief Buckley says that citizens have to do what the MPD says, not what it does.

I SUGGEST THE FORUM BE HELD 

AT PUBLIC ACCESS AND LET PEOPLE BE HEARD

DON'T TALK AT PEOPLE, 

LET THE PEOPLE DO THE TALKING!

Like the Cradock Bridge scandal where the silence is

deafening.  What? Crooked cops as "All good men and

women."  Everyone else would be dragged into court

for such misbehaviour.   

First thing Mayor Lungo-Koehn should have done was rip up the Rumley Kool-Aid at the access station and start

fresh.  

My God, the tens of thousands of pages 

I've written in the past 19 years on the 

subject are the kinda thing that makes a 

Michael Marks say - purportedly - 

in April of 2018 at the Cable Advisory meeting 

"Joe Vig was right."

                     Ya think, Michael?

Being right in Medford means being public enemy #1.  

Because Medford doesn't want to hear it.

Adam Knight being the enemy of Charter Review 

AND Charter Change proves my point.

Mr. Knight loves a rigged system 

when he can rig it in his favor.

Hey, anyone got one of those e mails from 

someone who holds a government job promoting

himself come election time... as a candidate for 

public office? 

On company time and with 

Commonwealth resources? 

I'm not alleging who, just asking a question.  

Send me a few of said e mails so I 

don't have to put a public records request in

to a government building up north 

to reveal if there is such buffoonery!

If you see his political signs too close to polling places come November, as I've witnessed, you know EXACTLY who

I am talking about.

And YOU people are going to wave the magic wand to stop discrimination?

Right.

Ya also think that when a disgraced cop writes a book like

THE COPS ARE ROBBERS that four decades

later maybe you won't find 30 Medford cops on the Brady/Discovery list and 10 nominees for Brady on

my personal list?

It's a sick joke.  And as long as there is no communication 

with the residents, businesses, civic groups and

visitors to Medford...another forty years in Mike McGlynn's shadow will have people saying things like this from

an article on Mike Bloomberg:

____________________________
Another famous former Medford resident 

is quoted about the city:

“It was not a bad place, 

but a place you want to leave, to escape from,’’ 

 recalled the author Paul Theroux, 

a Medford native and casual Bloomberg friend.

“I thought it would be death to stay there, 

that I would just be swallowed up. 

It was all right to grow up there, 

but to stay there? Fatal.’’

___________________________________

This IS the city that Mike Bloomberg had problems with:

_____________________________________________

Here is that excerpt from “Mike Bloomberg: Money, Power, Politics’’:

“No Jews lived in the immediate neighborhood, 

very few anywhere in Medford.

But everyone assumed that would change, including the Bloombergs, who resolved not to let 

residual anti-Semitism block their path.

‘They weren’t very happy,’ 

Mrs. Bloomberg said of some neighbors.

‘Our lawyer, George McLaughlin, who was Irish, 

bought the house and sold it to us.

But nobody on the street was unpleasant to us.’

And so they moved into the two-story, 

three-bedroom house - the slightly 

more expensive model because it came 

with a finished attic and basement.’’

October 13, 2009.  11 1/2 years later nothing has changed.

CROP ROTATION

WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT PUBLIC ACCESS AT THE COUNCIL?

Crop rotation.  Medford suffers from stagnation,

and you can hate the messenger

while talking about non-hate all you want, 

because I'm the guy pulling the wizard's

curtain away from him.

Some of you get angry with people saying 

ALL LIVES MATTER as if you have to

say one thing only.

A friend of mine performed at Canal Street 

for a TV 3 Christmas party.

He didn't look at people's ethnicity, 

he looked at everyone as PEOPLE.

He would never say "That gay fellow" or 

that "Oriental person" - he loved

people from every religious background, 

every race, color and creed.

Maybe that's where this conversation should begin?

White Supremacy at the Capitol on January 6?  

Don't generalize.

Those were loony Trump supporters dressed in

Confederate flags and blah blah blah.

Oh yes, there are dangerous crackpots from a 

bunch of insane, illogical groups, but Trump didn't

rely just on "Proud Boys" and the Ku Klux Klan,

Trump was a magnet for every illiterate and jackass

that needed a low-grade leader.

All Trump did was show us how desperately stupid

some Americans are.   

Fox News blamed Antifa and Black Lives Matter....

now THAT is bigotry, blatant bigotry. 

You want to stop racism?  

Here's a good start:

Go after Fox News advertisers, that will get

results.   That will set an example and put

fear in the hearts of those making money 

off of hate.  Like Fox News.

If  you watch FOX NEWS regularly and like

what you hear, you won't need to look in the

mirror to know that you are a hateful racist.

AND MEDFORD IS JUST AS BAD AS FOX NEWS

But listening to Medford, the city where THIRTY COPS 

are on DA Marian Ryan's

Brady list and its 

"Do as we say, not as we do" attitude ...

with Stephen Lebert

roaming the streets to threaten to use his gun....

and ZERO discussion of

that black eye on the city, 

is hypocrisy that would make 

Ted Cruz blush with envy.

MEDFORD, AS RACIST AND HATEFUL

AS THE FOX NEWS CORPORATION,

AND BREANNA BEFUDDLED AND HIDING

IN HER BUNKER BECAUSE SHE WANTS TO

SWEEP THE HATE UNDER THE RUG

AND COME OUT THROWING ROSE PETALS

AND TELLING YOU EVERYTHING IS FINE.

YOU THINK THEY WANT THIS ON

PUBLIC ACCESS TV?

YOU THINK BREANNA AND BUCKLEY

WANT TO UPHOLD THEIR OATH OF OFFICE

AND LET TRUTH BE ON THE AIRWAVES!

HA!

THAT'S ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW THAT YOU

ARE PAYING HIGH TAXES AND GETTING 

NOTHING IN RETURN FOR IT.

That's my Friday night statement on this lunacy.

Leo A. Sacco, Jr. with his "See it, Say It" 

so he could file false charges on

someone filing a public records request.

A request regarding a rumor on a varsity coach 

and an elected official's daughter! 

Leo, asking if you see it just say it -  

is like the child molesting Catholic priest 

who hears sins in the confessional 

so that he can find his next rape victim.  

Leo has you say it, and if he realized what

you said was true, he went after you!  

Think Buckley is any better?  Think again.

Leo deserves prison time with his accomplice, 

Edward P. Finn and the current pathetic 

Council President who loves to lie to the police.

It's your rogue's gallery, 

I'm one hundred yards away 

watching Medford like an Eagle flying above 

but not having to be insulted by 

seven lunatics on an overpaid city

council that do nothing but 

stand in the way of civil rights.

The bigots in Medford want to talk to YOU about Discrimination on March 10 and 13th.

If I'm gonna get screwed, well, let it be by Josh Hawley.  

He might be a sleazy Trumpian bigot, 

but at least he's cute..
