Marti Buscaglia, the head of the Alaska State Commission for Human Rights, became embroiled in a scandal involving a contractor, Brad Linegar, because of a political sticker. She and two Commissioners have resigned as a result.

On 14 March, 2019, she left a note on the windshield of Brad Linegar's work truck, using her business card, calling a pro-Second Amendment sticker “offensive”. The note was buttressed by the business card of the Chief Probation Officer for Region III in Alaska, Kendall Rhyne.

Then Buscaglia indicated the contractor should not park his truck in the parking lot. It has been reported she sent an email to the owner of the building, who had contracted with Linegar's business, Sage Mechanical, and asked the owner to “do something” about the company. From facebook.com

Sandie Roach The business card is one issue. The other is the email she sent to his client. As we haven't seen it, here is the jist…
The client had received an email from Marti Buscaglia, the Executive Director of the Commission. According to Linegar, the email implied Linegar was a racist and asked the client to “please do something” about Sage Mechanical. The email also accused Sage Mechanical of performing substandard work and exercising poor judgement.

Alaskans were upset. It was a step too far to claim a pro-Second Amendment sticker was offensive and racist. It was unacceptable that the head of the Human Rights Commission

I see a lot of chatter about that Human Rights Commission, but what about the probation officer that also stuck a card on the guy’s truck? Is any pain headed his/her way?

One sign that your state government has gone Communist is if they set up a ‘Human Rights Commission’.

There should be criminal charges. This is the new KKK in action.

all the while using the full weight of her title along with her cohort, the chief of parole officers to intimidate me and my client.

She need to get more than early retirement

What a heart warming story! All it lacked was Marti getting shot while breaking into someone’s residence.

2012 After being out of the newspaper business for five years, former Duluth News Tribune publisher Marti Buscaglia longed to get back in.
So when the opportunity arose, in a place she said she loves — Alaska — Buscaglia accepted.
“I love the adventure of it,” she said. Buscaglia starts April 16 at the McClatchy-owned Anchorage Daily News, where she’ll serve as advertising director and vice president.
“I’m very excited about this,” she said of the move and new job. “I miss the newspaper industry, and I love McClatchy. I think they’re a wonderful company. And I always wanted to live in Alaska.”
Duluth-Superior Magazine, which Buscaglia founded in 2008, will continue to be published. She will remain as its owner, though she no longer will be its publisher.

"... any @sshole who ever served on a “human rights commission” would do well to flee the country."

Clearly, they should be on the dirt-nap list...

Here's the apparatchik who feels superior to you:

I'm not surprised at her organic, whole-grain, ayurvedic appearance. Probably a transplant from Malibu.

Alaskans need to dismantle this idiotic, tax-wasting, SJW-haven commission ASAP.

Hard to recognize this country for what it once was.

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like where men were free. ~ Ronald Reagan

Two things:

1.) Had she done that to me she’d have gotten a succinct two word email in reply. “B*** me.”

2.) On Planet Lurker it would be perfectly legal to hunt members of any “Human Rights Commission” with packs of hounds. No license needed and no bag limits.

Human rights is a euphemism for liberal dictatorial powers.

[Ford4000]

This shows that these rights commissions inevitably become star chambers run by leftist radicals. Why on earth did Alaskans tolerate this?

[GOPJ]

Yeah, it's odd how ‘human rights’ and ‘liberal preferences’ are exactly the same... almost as if the term 'human rights' was hijacked by liberals to describe only themselves.
