Bar Brawl With North Park Rages On
I appreciate that someone else sees the bias against the Bluefoot in the Reader. I'm work in the neighborhood, and I used to make the Reader available to my patrons (many of whom also frequent the Bluefoot), but I won't anymore. I'm officially throwing out any Reader that enters my place UNTIL some FAIR reporting is done on the Bluefoot. They say the squeaky wheel gets the grease, and they're right! Just because there are some complaints doesn't mean they're the majority!— December 15, 2010 2:20 p.m.
Bar Brawl With North Park Rages On
Just because I have an opposing opinion doesn't mean I'm a "phoblogger." Just because I created an account out of disgust with the Reader's bias against the Bluefoot doesn't mean I have some shady ulterior motive. I happen to believe that the Bluefoot is the only good community bar North Park has, and I wish we'd focus on cleaning up True North, Bar Pink, and U-31! I'm allowed to have an opinion, and if you disagree, you can write out a response, instead of being accusatory.— December 15, 2010 2:12 p.m.
Bar Brawl With North Park Rages On
The bias of The Reader in regard to the Bluefoot is stunning. I live in North Park, next to the bars that are causing REAL problems- True North and U-31 especially. A man at the end of my alley was stabbed in the face! I see people having sex on front lawns, urinating in my alley (women too!), and having fights in the streets- not to mention the hookers who have sex in my alley. I've NEVER seen any of this happen at the Bluefoot. I used to live a block from Bluefoot, and expected some noise and the occasional bar patron who couldn't hold his liquor, but NEVER was I woken up by violence or sex. I never felt like I was in danger near the Bluefoot. Neighbors who moved near the Bluefoot should expect some noise, and those who were already living there should be glad it replaced a more rowdy, leather-daddy bar! Those who want a quiet, family neighborhood, should move to Mission Hills, South Park, or Kensington. North Park is improving, but don't expect utopia until you've gentrified the whole neighborhood.— December 8, 2010 3:14 p.m.
