Toyota is good for Jihad
I first met Maurice Booker just before Christmas last year. He walked into the newsroom with a story of injustice to share, as so many people do.
So many times, however, we have to explain to people being unfair or rude is not a crime -- or news. Maurice's story regarded his bad blood with a member of Union Station's security staff, and how he felt unfairly cut off from services due to a personality conflict.
Maurice posseses a daunting intelligence and is the only person in Pasadena that I can have informed discussions about Shamil Basayev's role in post-Soviet Chechnya or the 1979 seizure of the Grand Mosque in Mecca.
