HomeMy WebLinkAboutPublic Comment from JO8NI Just Think The Water Thing Is Inevitable. The City Is Being Forced To Ship In Water At High
Cost Already. I Am Concerned About The Well Closest To The Coast Due To Saltwater
Intrusion, So I Hope That Is Not A Bad Investment In The Longer Term Future. I Am
Concerned With The Burden On College Park East's Water System Given The New
Developments In Los Alamitos And The Proposed Development In The Seal Beach Housing
Element. I Am Sad If Any Leisure World Resident Truly Cannot Afford The Water Increases
Rather Than Simply Being Inconvenienced. Is There Potential To Micro-flnance
Scholarships Or Grants To Residents In Need? I Agree With My Neighbor That The Naval
Weapons Station Is Not Contributing Equally When You Really Think About Water Rates
And Land Development Potential. I Do Not Attribute Malice As They Are Clearly Busy Doing
Their Own Thing. Could My Proposed Medical Facility Be A Beneflcial Solution For All
Parties? Does Anyone Else Have Any Big Picture Proposals/Ideas They Are Willing To Share
In City Council Meetings? For The Water Thing, I Would Have Liked To See Words Like Inter-
District Equity Guarantee Or Rate Stabilization Reserve To Make Residents Feel More
Comfortable.
Inter District Equity Guarantee: Embedding a pro rata surplus sharing covenant in the
master service agreement automatically redistributes any revenues above debt service,
reserve targets, and operating margins among the flve co located districts based on their
proportional usage, with annual reconciliation overseen by a joint technical committee.
Rate Stabilization Reserve: Establishing a dedicated reserve that requires deposits of
revenues exceeding budgeted expenses, debt obligations, and a modest operating margin
smooths customer rates across flscal cycles, with withdrawals for rate relief, capital needs,
or emergencies authorized by supermajority board vote and disclosed in an annual public
report.
Could The Anduril And Saronic Technologies Be Used in dual purpose civilian/military
cooperation? For Example, cleaning up the garbage in the San Gabriel River or shipping
sand onto our beaches? Surely, this would beneflt them as well being able to collect data
mapping the coast/have clearer lines of sight/go through training exercises pretending the
trash is a target/shipping aid across the world/etc.
I See And Appreciate How The City Council Agenda Is Clickable And Goes To The
Timestamp Where The Item Was Addressed In The City Council Meeting Video. Thank You.
Both Republicans And Democrats Weaponize Terrible Processes For Their Own
Propaganda Rather Than Fixing The Process Itself.

precludes meaningful public input and masks the true costs and infiuences behind each

Dear GOD:
I Write To Notify The Seal Beach People Of Multiple Serious Legal Violations Committed By
Attorney And Police During Multiple Seal Beach City Council Meetings, And To Demand
Immediate Remedial Action. My Claims Are Fully Documented By Audio/Video Recordings,
Public Eyewitnesses, And Written Correspondence. I Request A Written Response
Immediately From The Date Of This Letter, As You Have Ignored All My Previous Email
Requests For Response, In Denial Of THE SPIRIT.
I. Constitutional Violations – Police Intimidation And Chilling Of Free Speech
1. Police Intimidation Violating My 1st Amendment Right By Chilling Free Speech At Public
Assemblies Repeatedly Due To Viewpoint Discrimination Before/During My Public
Comments Has Been Taking Place For Years:
(A) Directing An Officer To Use A Police Dog To Speciflcally Target My
Person/Belongings/Scent Without A Warrant Or Reasonable Suspicion Of A Crime
Additionally Violating My 4th Amendment Right,
(B) Directing An Officer To Move Behind The Sight Line Of The Camera To Sit In The Public
Audience Exactly When I Gave My Public Comment,
(C) Physically Moving Directly Next To My Person In The Public Audience Section Before My
Public Comments At Two Separate December Meetings In Order To Add Extra Intimidation
During The Pressure Of Much Greater Audience Attendance Than Usual, High Ranking
Government Officials’ Attendance, And Holiday Performances,
(D) Suggesting/Telling Me Not To Write My Name Down In Order To Be Called Upon To Give
My Public Comment.
2. Such Targeted, Repeated Shows Of Force In Plain View Of Camera And Attendees
Constitute Unlawful First Amendment Retaliation And Intimidation In Violation Of The
United States And California Constitutions, Including The Tom Bane Civil Rights Act (Cal.
Civ. Code § 52.1).
II. Brown Act Violations – Disruptive Responses Directly To My Public Comments
1. By Discussing My Public Comment On The Record Without First Placing It On A Publicly
Noticed Agenda And Giving Me A Chance To Respond, The Lawyer Engaged In
Unauthorized Discussion Of A Non Agendized Item, A Clear Violation Of Gov. Code
§ 54954.2. The Disruption Denied The Validity Of My Public Comment Regarding My
Church’s Sacramental Use Of The Flesh And Blood Of JESUS CHRIST (Sinfully Scientiflcally
Named Psilocybin Mushrooms)—A Legally Protected Religious Practice—Thereby Engaging
In Viewpoint Discrimination In Direct Contravention Of Gov. Code § 54954.3 By
Misfeasance In Office (Misusing Lawful Authority), Misrepresentation By Omission
(Fraudulent Concealment) Of Material Facts, And Acting Ultra Vires (Beyond Lawful
Authority).
The Attorney Issued A Blanket Legal Statement Asserting That “Psilocybin Mushrooms”—
Referred To By Their Non-Religious, Sinfully Scientiflc, Secular Name—“Are Illegal In
California.” This Statement Was Delivered Without Addressing The Constitutional
Protections Afforded To My Religious Practice, And Was Made In Direct Response To My
Public Comment Of Religious Liberty Concerning The Flesh And Blood Of JESUS CHRIST.
This Disruptive, Unlawful Response To My Public Comment Effectively Undermined The
Legitimacy Of My Sincerely Held Religious Beliefs And Sacramental Use Of JESUS CHRIST's
Flesh And Blood. It Promoted A Preference For Traditional Or Mainstream Interpretations
Over Nontraditional Spiritual Practices. It Also Violated The Establishment Clause And Free
Exercise Clause Of The First Amendment To The United States Constitution, Which
Together Prohibit Government Hostility Toward Minority Religious Practices, Government
Endorsement Of One Religious Interpretation Over Another, Interference With Religious
Expression In A Public Forum, And The Chilling Of Protected Religious Speech.
Furthermore, The Attorney Omitted Critical Legal Context, Implying That My Religious
Practice Was Categorically Illegal Under State Law—When In Fact, The Religious Freedom
Restoration Act (RFRA) And The Gonzales V. O Centro Espírita Beneflcente União Do
Vegetal (UDV) Supreme Court Decision Provide A Clear And Recognized Pathway For
Religious Exemption To Controlled Substance Laws. The UDV Case Affirmed That A Sincere
Religious Use Of A Federally Controlled Substance May Not Be Prohibited Without The
Government Meeting The Highest Level Of Legal Justiflcation—Known As Strict Scrutiny.
The Burden Is On The Government To Show A Compelling Interest And That It Has Chosen
The Least Restrictive Means To Advance That Interest. By Failing To Disclose This Legal
Framework, The Attorney Not Only Misled The Public, But Also Attempted To Dismiss My
Constitutionally Protected Religious Rights Through Misrepresentation And Selective
Omission (Fraudulent Concealment). This Public Statement, Issued By A Government
Official In A Civic Forum, Not Only Dismissed The Spiritual Framework I Had Explicitly
Articulated, But Also Attempted To Reframe My Protected Religious Exercise As A Criminal,
Secular Matter—Thus Chilling My Religious Speech, Discrediting The Legitimacy Of My
Sacrament, And Reinforcing State Entanglement With Religious Interpretation, Contrary To
The Principle Of Government Neutrality In Religious Matters.
2. At The Council’s Request For Additional Information Concerning My Comment, Police
Misrepresented The Legality Of Secular Psilocybin Mushrooms In California, Fraudulently
Concealing Successful Decriminalization Mandates In The California Cities Of Oakland,
Santa Cruz, Arcata, Berkeley, And San Francisco, Thereby Misleading The Council In Breach
Of Gov. Code § 54954.2 And § 54954.3, And Committing Ultra Vires (Beyond Lawful
Authority) Misfeasance In Office.
III. Procedural Rule Making And Ultra Vires Acts Regarding The “Well”
1. The Boundary Of The “Well” Is Neither Deflned In State Law Nor Codifled In Local
Ordinance To My Knowledge; It Is A Purely Procedural Matter For Council Action. Despite
Repeated Requests For The Speciflc Municipal Code Section Authorizing Any Such
Boundary, None Exists.
2. Police And Attorney Unilaterally Expanded The Logical And Symmetrical Boundaries Of
The “Well” Beyond Any Council-Adopted Rule To Contract The Public Area Unlawfully—An
Ultra Vires Act And Clear Misfeasance In Office. Wells Are Round, The Symmetrical City
Clerk’s Desk Is Clearly A Public Area With Forms To Fill Out, And Logically There Is Clearly A
Public Trashcan Outside The Police Desk That I Never Went Beyond. This Police And
Attorney Action Amounts To Abuse Of Process, Misrepresentation Of Law, And Abuse Of
Authority.
IV. Defamation And Abuse Of Qualifled Privilege
1. When I Sought To Speak In Order To Correct The Fraudulent Concealment In The Record
(II.2.), I Peacefully Stood Outside The “Well” In A Public Area. After Being Told To Move
Because I Was In The “Well”, I Did Not Move, So I Requested A Written Memorandum Of The
“Well” Boundaries From The City Municipal Code. Instead, The Attorney Sent Me And Three
Other Government Employees A Letter Maliciously Defaming My Character By Falsely
Alleging I Was “Intimidating” “Police”, “Disrupting” The City Council Meeting, And Refusing
A “Lawful Order”. Because I Was Peacefully Standing In A Clearly Public Area Keeping My
Body To Myself Gesturing And Whispering In Active Listening To The City Council Meeting
(With No Action By Council To Remove Me Or Claim Disruption), Attempting To Follow The
Public Participation Procedure Of An Agendized Discussion Pursuant To The Brown Act To
Correct The Fraudulent Concealment In The Record (II.2.), And Refusing An Unlawful Order
Not In The City Municipal Code Or Given By City Council, The Entire Attorney Letter Is
Illogical Malicious Defamation Designed To Intimidate, Chilling My Free Speech. I Have Not
Returned In Person To City Council Since I Do Not Trust The Hostile Environment Created
Through Maliciously, Falsely Labeling Me A Person “Intimidating” “Police”. In Addition, As I
Was Simultaneously Publicly Criticizing The New Enforcement Of The Daylighting Parking
Law Without Painted Curbs, My Free Speech Is Clearly Protected By Gov. Code § 54954.3
(c): The Legislative Body Of A Local Agency Shall Not Prohibit Public Criticism Of The
Policies, Procedures, Programs, Or Services Of The Agency, Or Of The Acts Or Omissions
Of The Legislative Body.
2. This Written Accusation—Sent To Me And Three Government Employees—Constitutes
Libel Per Se, An Abuse Of Qualifled Privilege, Intimidation Chilling My Free Speech,
Creating A Hostile Environment, And Actual Malice, Causing Harm To My Reputation And
Giving Rise To A Defamatory Tort Action Seeking Injunctive Relief.
V. Demand For Relief
Accordingly, I Hereby Demand That The Seal Beach Government Immediately:
1. Investigate And Correct Any Unlawful Intimidation Tactics Used By Police And Attorney
To Chill My Free Speech, Including Blocking My Email Messages To Government Officials
And Staff In Late 2024, Cited On The Record Of A City Council Meeting.
2. Retract The Attorney’s Defamatory Allegations In Writing And Issue A Corrective Notice
To All Recipients, Cited On The Record Of A City Council Meeting.
3. Provide The Speciflc Municipal Code Section Describing The “Well” Boundary Or
Formally Adopt One Via Council Resolution, Cited On The Record Of A City Council
Meeting.
4. Cease And Desist Further Illegal Brown Act Violations, Restore Viewpoint Neutrality
Through Correction Of The Record To Include Previously Omitted Information, And Legally
Agendize Public Discussion Of The (Sinfully Scientiflcally Named) Psilocybin Mushroom For
Secular Local Decriminalization In Order To Equally Welcome And Respect Everyone’s First
Amendment Rights.
5. Implement Training For All Government Officials And Staff Through Reading This Entire
Letter, Cited On The Record Of A City Council Meeting.
VI. If You Fail To Respond In Writing Immediately Or Refuse To Remedy These Violations, I
Will Consider Pursuing All Available Administrative And Judicial Remedies, Including But
Not Limited To:
1. Filing A Formal Brown Act Complaint With The County District Attorney And Attorney
General.
2. Initiating A Civil Rights Action Under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 And The Tom Bane Civil Rights Act
(Cal. Civ. Code § 52.1) Up To $25,000.
3. Filing A Defamation Lawsuit For Libel Per Se Up To $25,000.
4. Seeking Injunctive Relief, Damages, And Attorney’s Fees.
5. Lastly, I Am Under No Obligation To Prove My Religious Exemption Through Any Man
Made Legal Mechanisms Unless And Until I Deem The Matter Ripe. My Exercise Of Faith
Exists Prior To And Beyond Civil Authorization, As Declared In The Declaration Of
Independence, Protected By The United States Constitution, And Recognized By Legal
Precedent. This Is Anchored In The Foundational Principle That Religious Liberty Is An
Inalienable Right, Not A Privilege Bestowed Or Regulated At The Discretion Of Any
Government. Peace And Love To Everyone That Lives And Works In Seal Beach.
Very Truly GOD’s,
JO8N

https://www.scribd.com/document/617371685/Hong-2021-The-Psychoactive-
Mushrooms-of-Korea
Magic mushrooms are woven into the historical and contemporary cultural fabric of Korea.
There are many Korean fables regarding the 웃음버섯 (useum beoseot), or laughter
mushroom.
The famous Korean mycologist 조덕현Dr. Cho Duck-Hyun wrote an excellent paper on the
legends of poisonous and magic mushrooms in Korea titled 독버섯의 비밀, or The Secret of
Poison Mushrooms. It’s only available in Korean language, but I highly recommend reading
it if you can get it translated. You can flnd it here:
http://www.kacn.org/data/story/500403.pdf
My favorite account in Dr. Cho’s paper is an ancient story in which nuns at a Korean
Buddhist monastery go mushroom hunting in the mountains around the monastery. They
combine all their mushrooms into a big pot of soup and become wildly intoxicated after
consuming the soup.
In contemporary times, magic mushrooms occasionally appear as plot devices in Korean
television shows. For example, in one episode of the Korean drama 푸른거탑, or Blue
Tower, an army platoon was stricken with uncontrollable laughter and hallucinations after
consuming wild “laughter mushrooms.” You can watch the 2-part episode on YouTube:
Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6KcxYzWT8w
Part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PeaRDTCcKo
(Note: viewers outside Korea might need a VPN linked to Korea to watch the videos)
The local Korean names of magic mushrooms often reveal the social attitudes towards
these mushrooms from 미치광이버섯속 or “maniac mushroom” for the Gymnopilus genus
and 환각버섯속 or “hallucinogen mushroom” for the Psilocybe genus, as well as “laughter
mushroom” for some Gymnopilus and Panaeolus species.
Despite the cultural signiflcance of magic mushrooms in Korea, international mushroom
literature demonstrate a limited knowledge of magic mushrooms native to Korea. Gastón
Guzmán’s “A Worldwide Geographical Distribution of Neurotropic Fungi”, which is one of
the biggest global reviews of magic mushrooms, only lists four magic mushrooms from
Korea and the famous book “Psilocybian Mushrooms of the World” by Paul Stamets makes
no mention of Korea.
In neighboring Japan, on the other hand, Guzman mentions 28 potential magic mushrooms
and Stamets cites 10. Such inconsistencies likely stem from a number of factors, including
limited access to or familiarity with Korean sources, and a comparatively larger breadth of
relevant Japanese sources. Nevertheless, Korean mycological sources do mention the
existence of numerous, potentially magic mushrooms in Korea.
In upcoming blogs, I will investigate and review 26 potentially magic mushrooms found in
Korea. There is a lot of interesting and exciting information to be shared, and I hope to set
the record straight!

Correction Of The Record Stating The Whole Truth That The California Cities Of Oakland,
Santa Cruz, Arcata, Berkeley, And San Francisco Have Successfully Mandated Personal
Use And Possession Of Certain Psychedelics As The Lowest Law Enforcement Priority.
3. I Request Public Acknowledgment Of The City Attorney's Failure To Recognize At
Best And Complicit Encouragement At Worst Of The Ongoing Seal Beach Police
Intimidation Speciflcally Directed At Me, A ~27 Year Resident.
4. I Hereby Request A Public Acknowledgment From The City Attorney Regarding Prior
Acts Of Omission And Potential Violations Of My First Amendment Rights. Speciflcally,
These Violations Occurred Immediately After I Publicly Announced The Religious Nature Of
My Practice And The Founding Of My Church.
Following This Declaration, The City Attorney Issued A Blanket Legal Statement Asserting
That Psilocybin Mushrooms—Referred To By Their Non-Religious, Secular Name—Are
“Illegal In California.” This Statement Was Delivered Without Addressing The Constitutional
Protections Afforded To Religious Practice, And Was Made In Direct Response To My
Religious Expression Invoking The Name Of JESUS CHRIST. This Action Effectively
Undermined The Legitimacy Of My Sincerely Held Religious Beliefs And Sacramental Use
Of JESUS CHRIST's Flesh And Blood. It Promoted A Preference For Traditional Or
Mainstream Christian Interpretations Over Nontraditional Or Indigenous Spiritual
Practices. It Also Violated The Establishment Clause And Free Exercise Clause Of The First
Amendment To The United States Constitution, Which Together Prohibit Government
Hostility Toward Minority Religious Practices, Government Endorsement Of One Religious
Interpretation Over Another, Interference With Religious Expression In A Public Forum, And
The Chilling Of Protected Religious Speech. Furthermore, The City Attorney Omitted
Critical Legal Context, Implying That My Religious Practice Was Categorically Illegal Under
State Law—When In Fact, The Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) And The Gonzales
V. O Centro Espírita Beneflcente União Do Vegetal (UDV) Supreme Court Decision Provide
A Clear And Recognized Pathway For Religious Exemption To Controlled Substance Laws.
The UDV Case Affirmed That A Sincere Religious Use Of A Federally Controlled Substance
May Not Be Prohibited Without The Government Meeting The Highest Level Of Legal
Justiflcation—Known As Strict Scrutiny. The Burden Is On The Government To Show A
Compelling Interest And That It Has Chosen The Least Restrictive Means To Advance That
Interest. By Failing To Disclose This Legal Framework, The City Attorney Not Only Misled
The Public, But Also Attempted To Dismiss My Constitutionally Protected Religious Rights
Through Misrepresentation And Selective Omission. This Public Statement, Issued By A
Government Official In A Civic Forum, Not Only Dismissed The Spiritual Framework I Had
Explicitly Articulated, But Also Attempted To Reframe My Protected Religious Exercise As A
Criminal Matter—Thus Chilling My Religious Speech, Discrediting The Legitimacy Of My
Sacrament, And Reinforcing State Entanglement With Religious Interpretation, Contrary To
The Principle Of Government Neutrality In Religious Matters. This Act Of Governmental
Overreach Echoes The Historical Violation Of Indigenous Religious Freedom On This
Land—An Ongoing Legacy Of Cultural Suppression And Spiritual Violation.
Lastly, I Assert That I Am Under No Obligation To Prove My Religious Exemption Through
Man-Made Legal Mechanisms Unless And Until I Deem The Matter Ripe. My Exercise Of
Faith Exists Prior To And Beyond Civil Authorization, As Protected By The Constitution And
Recognized By Precedent. This Is Anchored In The Foundational Principle That Religious
Liberty Is An Inalienable Right, Not A Privilege Bestowed Or Regulated At The Discretion Of
The State.
5. I Request Public Acknowledgment Of Two Separate Brown Act Violations. During (4),
The City Attorney Gave A Public Response To My Public Comment Without Agendizing The
Item To Give Me A Chance To Respond With The Omitted Information. During (2), The City
Mayor Gave A Public Response To My Public Comment In Which Police Were Asked About
Psilocybin Mushrooms. This Item Was Not Agendized And I Was Not Given The Chance To
Respond With The Omitted Information. Because The Item Was Illegaly Agendized Twice
Without A Public Hearing, I Request A Legal Placement On A Future Agenda With A Chance
For The Public To Speak.
If The Public Record Is Corrected By Acknowledgment Of All 5 Issues, Behaviors Are
Promised To Change, And Placement On A Future Agenda Occurs During The Seal Beach
City Council Meeting On 5/27/25, I Will Drop All Consideration Of Legal Action With
Handshakes Of Forgiveness.

Why 3D Printing Buildings Leads to Problems (Modular Prefab Concrete For Non-Unique
Building Parts + 3D Printed Concrete For Unique Building Parts Seems Like Sweet Spot)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhAwPFIUF_4
Comment:
“I’ve worked closely with a leading concrete 3D printing company for several years now,
so I hope my insight into the actual construction process provides some perspective.
First, one clariflcation: There is no gravel aggregate in 3D printing concrete. It is only sand.
You're right that the vertical integration is very strong in this industry, but there is already
internal pressure to break that up. I expect in 10 years or so, you'll see more open-access
tools available to architects and construction companies alike. I can't be too speciflc and
honor my non-disclosure agreements, but there is recognition that the ability for architects
to play with shape is very limited for now, which also limits the primary advantage of
concrete 3D printing over other methods: complex shapes cost the same as simple ones.
The primary reasons IMO for the vertical integration is 1) that there has been a high learning
curve for the industry and 2) the business case relies on minimizing labor costs and the
strategies for dealing with that are still being prototyped. Normally trivial things like laying
foundations, running plumbing, tying roof timbers into the frame, and lintels as you
mentioned, are difficult for concrete 3D printed construction. It's only in the last year or so
that acceptable, repeatable solutions have been identifled for most of these and are
flnding their way into standard design practices. But even then, there are still maybe 5 or 10
years more of on-the-ground construction needed to establish best practice. It's not too
different from the way building materials and building science radically changed in the
1980's, leading to a decade of extremely poorly built houses prone to water damage and
short lifespans. It wasn't until maybe 20 years after that best practices for high-quality
construction had been standardized.
I would push back on the lack of repairability, though. This has always been an issue with
concrete construction, and it's likely to become increasingly common for plaster or stucco
flnishes to be applied to internal walls, allowing for intrusive renovations to be reintegrated.
Structural stability is not likely to be an issue since all walls have reinforcement every half
meter anyway and often exceed building strength standards by an order of magnitude.
Further, virtually all concrete 3D printing for now is slab-on-grade construction, which
already has the same repairability issues you mention but is already widely adopted and
has best practices for dealing with things like electrical and plumbing repair. I would also
point out that the timber frame construction that we love so much is largely an anomaly
unique to the U.S. where wood is abundant and cheap. Concrete 3D printed homes have
the (so far unrealized) potential of being many decades or centuries more durable than
frame buildings, which will change the design requirements that often contribute to design
choices that later need renovations and repairs.
I would also push back on the criticism of how windows and doors are seated in the
concrete homes. I don't doubt that many early concrete 3D printed homes were sealed
with silicone only, but 1) the gap between windows and walls is already standard in frame
construction and addressed with shims, spray foam, and trim and 2) the 3D printing
companies have already started to adopt the same building techniques used by frame
construction.
Echoing much of what you said, IMO concrete 3D printing has a high potential for unique
design that won't be unlocked until architects are given freer access to the tools and pre-
fab construction is a necessary companion to this industry, but there is still a lot of building
science that is being worked out. There are already some serious advantges, such as all
walls having a native R40 insulation rating, but these will be tempered by the inherent
limitations. I don't expect to see a rapid adoption of 3D printed construction for another 5
or 10 years and for the U.S. market share to cap around 20% and primarily remain in the
residential and light commercial construction spaces. I also think that the current bare-
wall aesthetic will fall out of favor out in that timeframe since it will prove difficult to clean. I
also expect that environmental costs will remain high as long as cement production relies
on fossil fuels and concrete aggregate relies on mined sand. I also expect that a future use
case for heavy construction is using 3D printing to create forms for much thicker concrete
constructions, particularly for foundations, buttresses, and pillars, such as you see in
airport construction.”

Dear Lisa, Nathan, Joe, Ben, Patty, Patrick, Mike H., Nick G., And Gloria,
I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding what I believe to be ongoing
violations of the Ralph M. Brown Act (Government Code § 54950 et seq.) during public
meetings conducted by Seal Beach’s City Council. The fundamental purpose of the Brown
Act is to ensure that the public has the ability to meaningfully participate in local
government proceedings, which includes the right to make public comments and receive
fair treatment under open meeting laws.
Speciflcally, I wish to address the following concerns:
1. Inability to Respond to False or Misleading Statements:
* It has been observed that after I make public comments, members of the council
and/or city staff respond to my remarks. However, I am not afforded the opportunity to
address their responses within the same meeting, effectively silencing my ability to correct
or clarify statements that may be false, misleading, or deceptive by omission. This directly
undermines the principle of open and meaningful discourse as envisioned by the Brown
Act.
* The California Supreme Court has reinforced the importance of open and fair
discussions in McKee v. Los Angeles Interagency Metropolitan Police Apprehension Crime
Task Force (2005) 134 Cal.App.4th 354, where the court emphasized that restricting public
input while allowing government officials to comment without challenge is inconsistent
with the transparency goals of the Brown Act.
2. Prohibition on Addressing Staff:
* The restrictions placed upon me and other members of the public from directing
comments toward city staff—especially when they are the ones providing statements that
require public scrutiny—appear to be an unreasonable and arbitrary limitation on public
participation. Furthermore, this may give the staff a feeling of false sense of security
protecting their statements from legal scrutiny. The Brown Act does not prohibit the public
from addressing staff members during public comment, and such restrictions seem
inconsistent with its purpose of transparency and accountability.
* In Chaffee v. San Francisco Library Commission (2005) 134 Cal.App.4th 109, the court
affirmed that public participation is a fundamental aspect of government meetings and
should not be unduly restricted, emphasizing the need for fairness in addressing public
concerns.
3. Discussion of Public Comments Without Proper Agenda Notice:
* Members of the council have engaged in discussions regarding my public comments
without flrst properly agendizing the topics I address. This practice violates the Brown Act’s
requirement that discussions and deliberations on non-agendized items not take place, as
it deprives the public of advance notice and the ability to participate fully in the discussion.
* I am grateful that the city council is listening and willing to speak even momentarily in
response to public concerns. However, even an extremely time-limited agendized
discussion would add fairness and transparency to misleading statements by staff. By
failing to agendize discussions about my comments, the council is creating an imbalance
in the exchange of information, which the Brown Act seeks to prevent.
* Additionally, in my public comments, I am using meta-communication to agendize the
process by which we agendize. The term “agendize” itself is a completely made-up word
that devalues public discourse and refiects a bureaucratic approach that obstructs
meaningful public participation rather than facilitating it. This concern aligns with the ruling
in White v. City of Norwalk (1990) 900 F.2d 1421, where the court emphasized that public
meetings should foster meaningful participation and that arbitrary restrictions on
discourse can infringe upon First Amendment rights.
* The word "agendize" does not appear anywhere in the Brown Act (Government Code §
54950 et seq.). The law refers to "placing an item on the agenda" or "agenda requirements,"
but "agendize" is not an official legal term. It is a bureaucratic jargon word that has become
commonly used in government settings but lacks formal recognition in the Brown Act itself.
4. Process for Placing an Item on the Agenda:
* The process for placing an item on a city council agenda varies by jurisdiction, but
under the Brown Act, it does not require a unanimous decision by the council. Instead,
different cities have different policies:
* Individual Council Members: Some cities allow one or two council members to
request an item be placed on a future agenda. The exact number required depends on the
city’s local rules or policies. For example, in Los Angeles, a single council member can
introduce a motion to be considered in a future meeting. Similarly, in San Diego, two
council members are required to place an item on the docket.
* Majority Vote: In some cities, adding an item to a future agenda requires a majority
vote of the council at a meeting. This process ensures that council members collectively
decide whether an issue warrants further discussion. The City of Berkeley, for instance,
follows this model, requiring a majority vote to place an item on the agenda.
* Courts have upheld the importance of agenda-setting transparency. In Preven v. City of
Los Angeles (2019) 32 Cal.App.5th 925, the court ruled that public participation in
government decision-making is a core right under the Brown Act, reinforcing that the public
and individual council members must be given fair opportunities to introduce topics for
discussion.
These practices create an unfair and unbalanced environment where public voices are
effectively suppressed, while city officials retain unrestricted latitude to control discourse
without public challenge. Such actions may constitute a violation of both the letter and
spirit of the Brown Act.
I respectfully request that the city review its meeting procedures and take immediate
corrective actions, including:
* Allowing public speakers the opportunity to address responses made to their comments
within the same meeting.
* Eliminating any restrictions that prevent members of the public from addressing staff
when their statements are at issue.
* Ensuring that discussions related to public comments follow proper agenda procedures
to comply with the Brown Act’s transparency requirements.
* Switching to Individual Council Member placing of items on the agenda to emphasize the
sanctity of every individual living in Seal Beach
Failure to address these issues may necessitate further action, including but not limited to
submitting a formal complaint to the appropriate oversight agencies and seeking legal
remedies to ensure compliance with state law.
I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and request a written response outlining
the steps the city will take to address these concerns. Please respond within 30 days of
receipt of this letter.

Dear Lisa, Nathan, Joe, Ben, Patty, Patrick, Mike H., Nick G., And Gloria,
I am writing to formally request an investigation into a matter of signiflcant public concern
regarding potential interference with my ability to communicate with city officials.
Speciflcally, I have reason to believe that my emails to members of the Seal Beach City
Council and city staff may have been intentionally blocked or flltered by someone within
city administration in the Fall/Winter of 2024.
As a resident of Seal Beach, I understand that I have a right to communicate with my
elected representatives and city staff regarding matters of public interest. Any directive or
policy that restricts this communication raises serious legal concerns under the Ralph M.
Brown Act (Government Code §§ 54950–54963), the California Public Records Act (CPRA)
(Government Code §§ 6250–6270), and the First Amendment of the United States
Constitution.
The Brown Act ensures transparency and public participation in local government. Blocking
my emails to city officials may constitute an unlawful restriction on my ability to engage in
civic matters and access public information. Likewise, the CPRA mandates that
governmental communications be open for public scrutiny. If city staff have deliberately
restricted my access to communicate with officials, it could be an unlawful attempt to
circumvent public records laws and governmental accountability.
Furthermore, the First Amendment guarantees my right to petition the government for
redress of grievances. Any action taken by city staff to suppress my communication,
particularly if done based on viewpoint discrimination, could amount to a constitutional
violation. Relevant case law, such as Lindke v. Freed and O'Connor-Ratcliff v. Garnier,
suggests that when public officials act in their official capacity, they must not engage in
viewpoint-based censorship, including blocking communications from constituents.
To ensure transparency and accountability, I respectfully request an internal review and
disclosure of the following:
1. Any internal directives, policies, or communications instructing city staff or IT personnel
to block, fllter, or otherwise restrict emails from my email address jo8n@proton.me or any
other speciflc senders.
2. A list of email addresses, domains, or individuals that have been blocked from
contacting city officials and staff in the last year.
3. Any internal discussions or justiflcations for implementing such restrictions, including
whether such actions were directed by city officials or staff members.
4. The criteria and procedures used by the city’s IT department to fllter or block external
communications.
If such a policy or directive exists, I request an explanation of its basis, legal justiflcation,
and the process by which it was implemented. If no such directive exists, I ask that
immediate steps be taken to ensure my emails are properly received by their intended
recipients.
I would appreciate a written response within 30 days conflrming the receipt of this request
and outlining the next steps in addressing this matter. If necessary, I am willing to flle a
formal Public Records Act request to obtain relevant documentation.
Thank you for your attention to this important issue. I look forward to your prompt response
and a resolution that upholds public trust and the right to open communication with our
local government.

Dear Lisa, Nathan, Joe, Ben, Patty, Patrick, Mike H., And Nick G.,
Police intimidation that chills free speech is well recognized under First Amendment
jurisprudence. In Healy v. James, 408 U.S. 169 (1972), the Supreme Court held that
government action that deters individuals from participating in public discourse—whether
through direct harassment or other forms of coercion—can violate First Amendment rights.
In Feiner v. New York, 414 U.S. 632 (1974), the Court underscored that police conduct
which disrupts or deters political expression, even if ostensibly aimed at maintaining order,
must not infringe on the constitutional right to free speech.
Moreover, Ward v. Rock Against Racism, 491 U.S. 781 (1989) illustrates that any regulation
or enforcement action must be content neutral and carefully tailored to avoid suppressing
speech based solely on its message. These cases establish that if police officers single out
individuals for the content of their speech or for the topics they plan to address—such as
advocating for "psilocybin mushroom" decriminalization, Religious Freedom, Jesus Christ
or discussing other politically charged issues—the resulting intimidation can constitute an
impermissible infringement on First Amendment protections.
Additionally, lower court decisions have consistently found that law enforcement actions
that create a chilling effect on political participation are subject to strict scrutiny. When
officers position themselves near a speaker, not to maintain public safety but to deter
expression, it may be seen as targeted harassment.
In December 2023's Seal Beach City Council Meeting, Mike H. of police staff entered the
public section of the council chambers. He decided to sit near me when the choir sang. In
December 2024's Seal Beach City Council Meeting, Mike H. entered the public section
once again. He decided to stand directly next to me during the National Anthem and when
the choir sang. As I was in two completely different places in the room each year, this
establishes a patterned targeting that could potentially be viewed as apparent police
intimidation that chills my free speech before my public comment.
In addition, Nick N. and Yosa of police staff have entered the public section of the council
chambers directly behind the podium in view of the camera numerous times. This
happened exactly during my public comment, to the point where I took time away from my
allotted time to acknowledge the repeated pattern. I can only assume that this was a
directive given by Mike H. of police staff due to his body language and the potential
intimidation's regularity.
“Settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. Do it while you are
still together on the way, or your adversary may hand you over to the judge, and the judge
may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison. Truly I tell you, you will
not get out until you have paid the last penny." (Matthew 5:25-26)

Dear Lisa, Nathan, Joe, Ben, Patty, Patrick, Mike H., And Nick G.,
I am formally requesting a correction of the public record pursuant to the Brown Act
(California Government Code § 54960.1) due to misleading and incomplete statements
made by city staff during the February 10, 2025 Seal Beach City Council meeting.
Additionally, I am raising concerns regarding a potential violation of my First Amendment
religious rights in connection with a previous statement made by the city attorney when I
publicly announced my Church’s use of "psilocybin mushrooms" as one of its sacraments.
Summary of Brown Act Violation
During public comment, I addressed the council regarding the decriminalization of
"psilocybin mushrooms". After I had flnished speaking, Lisa asked Mike H. from police staff
a clarifying question about the legal status of "psilocybin mushrooms". He responded by
stating that "psilocybin mushrooms" are illegal under California law but failed to mention
that multiple California cities, including Oakland, San Francisco, Santa Cruz, and Arcata,
have decriminalized "psilocybin mushrooms" for years.
This omission misled the public and the council by falsely implying that local governments
lack the ability to deprioritize "psilocybin mushrooms" enforcement, which is
demonstrably untrue. This is not the flrst time city officials have engaged in misleading
statements regarding "psilocybin mushroom" law. One year ago, after I announced the
formation of my church, which uses "psilocybin mushrooms", "N,N-Dimethyltryptamine",
and "N,N-DMT/MAOI" as sacraments, the city attorney similarly responded that "psilocybin
mushrooms" are illegal under California law—without acknowledging religious protections
under federal law.
Furthermore, both the city attorney and police staff failed to disclose critical personal
information that I presented regarding my own case: I was hospitalized after consuming a
psychedelic but not charged with any crime (which I am eternally grateful for) and also
found in possession of "psilocybin mushrooms" and "N,N-DMT" within Seal Beach. The
repeated omissions by both the city attorney and police staff created a false narrative that
"psilocybin mushroom" decriminalization has not been successfully implemented in some
California cities and ignored key evidence—including my own experience—showing that
local authorities have already adopted compassionate de facto decriminalization practices
for the well being of residents.
Potential First Amendment Violation Under RFRA & Gonzales v. UDV (2006)
My concern goes beyond transparency violations under the Brown Act. The city attorney’s
response a year ago, when I announced the formation of my church, raises serious
questions about whether my First Amendment religious rights were dismissed or
undermined in violation of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) and the Gonzales
v. O Centro Espírita Beneflcente União do Vegetal (UDV) Supreme Court case.
Legal Precedent: Religious Use of Controlled Substances
In Gonzales v. UDV (2006), the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that a religious organization could
legally use a federally controlled substance ("ayahuasca") under RFRA protections, as the
government failed to demonstrate a compelling interest in prohibiting its religious use.
Under RFRA (42 U.S.C. § 2000bb -1), the government cannot substantially burden religious
exercise unless it can prove a compelling government interest and that the restriction is the
least restrictive means of achieving that interest.
The DEA and federal courts have recognized that some religious groups may legally use
controlled substances like "peyote" and "ayahuasca" under these protections.
By failing to acknowledge these protections when I announced my church, the city attorney
omitted critical legal context, implying that my religious practice was categorically illegal
under state law—when in fact, federal law provides a pathway for religious exemptions.
This potential suppression of my religious expression in a public forum could be seen as a
violation of my First Amendment rights.
Requested Corrective Actions
To remedy this issue, I formally request the following:
Public Correction of the Record – The city must acknowledge the omission and issue a
formal correction clarifying that:
Multiple California cities have already decriminalized "psilocybin mushrooms" despite
state prohibition.
Religious protections exist under RFRA, and the UDV case established that religious use of
controlled substances may be legally protected under federal law.
Agenda Item for Further Discussion – Given the misleading statements made by city
officials, I request that the council place "psilocybin mushroom" decriminalization on a
future agenda to ensure the discussion is based on accurate and complete information.
Accountability for Repeated Omissions – The city should implement training or procedural
safeguards to prevent city officials from selectively omitting key legal and factual
information, especially when addressing the contents of public comments.
Legal Review of First Amendment Implications – The city should review its public
statements and policies regarding religious use of controlled substances to ensure
compliance with RFRA and Supreme Court precedent.
Legal Basis for Brown Act Complaint
Under California Government Code § 54960.1, the city has 30 days to correct this violation
or face potential legal action to nullify any decisions made under misleading or incomplete
information. Failure to acknowledge and correct this omission could be interpreted as a
continued effort to obscure public access to truthful and balanced information, violating
the core principles of the Brown Act.
I request a written response acknowledging receipt of this letter and outlining the
corrective actions the city intends to take. I appreciate your attention to this serious matter
and look forward to your response.
