Heightened security. No specific threats.
At Union Station there is heightened security, bomb squad, bomb sniffing dogs.
The heightened security alert is escalated to Orange Alert for wheeled transportation, nothing specific for LAX yet.
There will be added security on all public transportation beginning today. Mayor Villaraigosa plans to ride the Metro today. There will be uniformed police officers riding the buses today.
The Mayor said "Public transportation in Southern California is safe.
We have not received any intelligence to indicate that there are any threats to L.A."
However. . . Sheriff Baca said "Current intelligence feedback to Los Angeles and USA is that British security was not forewarned."
You will see uniformed Sheriffs Deputies riding on each train, in fact Mayor Villaraigosa will be riding the train.
Again, there is no credible threat.
Specific threat level orange raised overnight which means that they hold over police in case they are needed:
If you see anything specifically unusual, please be sure to report it to the police.
To tell you the truth, all they have done is added a deputy to each platform of the Red Line.
Then they checked to see if the WMD sniffer at Pershing Square station was functioning....I thought they left that thing on all the time!
I see millions of illegal aliens living in a sanctuary city, but it doesn't do me any good to report that
Well, the mayor himself has a well documented past of associating, even officiating, in terrorist organizations which advocate genocide, the separation of the Southwest from the United States, and erection of a separate nation, racially homogeneous composed of "the bronze nation", among other things.
Would that qualify as "unusual"?
