Public nudity activist from Berkeley charged with attempted abduction, stalking of teenage boy

[laylalex 7,300]

I have two weeks left in the hands down weirdest place I have ever lived, and I am going to miss it.  I am going to miss Sunday doughnuts and wearing sweaters and shopping for weird vegetables at Berkeley Bowl and my weird little A-frame studio in someone's back garden. Apropos of all that, I thought I'd bring you the weirdest news I saw in the past week or so from around here -- kept meaning to post this but Christmas. You know how it is.

In a Dec. 12 email to her body freedom followers, Taub addressed the issue of the criminal case against her. She blamed the criminal allegations on the boy’s mother and said the accusations against her were false.

“I had no idea how utterly corrupt to the core our legal system is,” she wrote. “I will follow up with more details and post some documents for you to look at. In terms of human rights violations it’s way worse than communist Russia was, at least when I was growing up there.”

She wrote that one of the charges against her stemmed from having written the words “I love you” in an email, while another message that had been attributed to her, she wrote, had actually been written by her son.

“I will post their so-called probable cause for that. It’s worthy of a movie,” she wrote in the email. “I plan on making a documentary about all this ####### and getting the media involved.”

Taub also wrote that she had been “raising hell in court and have some very fun audio recordings to share.” It is illegal for the public to record anything that takes place in Alameda County criminal courtrooms according to the posted rules.

Taub also wrote that, after initially handling some of her own legal work, she had retained an attorney. She asked anyone who wanted to support her case to send her money via PayPal.

A 2015 profile of Taub in SF Weekly described Taub as “a seasoned 9/11 truther, aficionado of psychedelics, and sexual free spirit who, in 2008, created a cable access show called My Naked Truth, which still airs every Sunday night on Channel 29 in San Francisco.”

I accidentally googled her during several of her nude protests. 

A. She is just another burnt out lsd brain fried leftie cuckoo. 

 

B. It took me a second seeing her nude from the waist up to realize it wasnt a boy

That's okay! America is a big place with room for us to find a place we like to live in. I like it up here, and it isn't for everyone. I've had my own beliefs challenged many times. I learned I'm not way out there in terms of my politics and economics. I get some people wouldn't like it, just like I probably wouldn't like living in the deep South. Thing is, both here and there (I have been to Mississippi and Alabama), people are pretty polite and welcoming when you meet them. It's the long term atmosphere that people might not enjoy, and that's fine. As I said, plenty of room.
