Dad stabbed in neck while holding young daughter on his lap while dining at Ventura restaurant

“So you’re saying these are bad parents”

Hardly. I don’t say crazy things like it’s somehow wrong for a 5 yr old to go to dinner with her parents.

A man is murdered with his daughter in his lap and your takeaway is that they are bad parents because it was 9:20 pm. You just can’t make this stuff up.

A bum. AA few decades ago he would have been in a shelter or an institution learning how to solder wires to circuit boards. Now with the guaranteed freedom to be batshit crazy he is sleeping on the beach and when he hears his “voice” he does what that other guy in his head tells him to do.

Maybe you should just tell me what to post and save me some time.

[arthurus]

Used to call them “bums.”

[Bigg Red]

So sad. Prayers.

[arthurus]

Because he is probably schizophrenic and following his "voice." I know a family of them, known them for ̀50+ years, nine siblings now the oldest is 73. Of the nine 5 are schizo, I guess one is supposed to call them "bi-polar" now but schizophrenic and paranoid schizophrenic are more precise. One of the brothers talks to his other in front of whoever. He is the one that I think is actually dangerous. His voice impels him to acts of petty vandalism and the family vehicles and houses all have dents and gouges and once a broken window.

[arthurus]

He is “local” because he wasn’t very recently placed there by LA or a Soros tour bus.

[arthurus]

Mustn’t call them “vagrants” any more. They are Citizens and they vote, or at least someone votes them.

How dreadful. His poor family.

What’s time to a five year old?

Nope. You don’t. Savages.

This happened just up the road from me. Our boat is in the marina. There was no motive. The guy is a mentally ill homeless person. Apparently he was sitting out on the promenade harassing people before this. The police were called but ‘didn’t have an officer to dispatch because they were on other calls’. I won’t go to the promenade or pier and haven’t in years. There are homeless everywhere.

Moonbeam should contact the Mad Mo Mayor of London and get a copy of his “cutlery ban” and issue an edict to that fact ASAP.

if you’re white in Long Beach, you’re a minority & you best not walk around by yourself there!

I was maybe 10 when I’d ride the P.E. (for those of you not from SoCal, Rodger Rabbit tells what happened to the P.E.) from Long Beach to L.A. to visit my aunt and uncle. It made stops in Compton (still safe then), Watts (still black then) and Willowbrook (which was black then, don’t know what it’s like now). The terminal in L.A. was downtown, pretty much Skid Row. Rode by myself, perfectly safe. Was white back then, oddly still white now.

Watts was black, but had decent well-kept homes. Was such a contrast to what we saw on T.V. from back east. Watts wasn’t a slum.
