LOL!
I guess that goes for places like Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, Chicago, Denver, Las Vegas, Minneapolis, Oklahoma City, Indianapolis, Miami, Richmond Virgina etc etc etc and all the other major cities that have more crime per capita than Los Angeles, Cal.
I'm sure people from Cal are to blame for all this.
What a knee slapper!!!
Every weekend, half of L.A.’s remaining Thug Nation makes the short drive to Las Vegas in their drug-money-purchased BMW 7 series sedans with 20-inch wheels and tinted windows. I’ve seen them in action. While your general premise that L.A.’s crime rate isn’t as bad as rumored is valid, part of that is because Thug Nation has been systematically (and probably intentionally) displaced by illegal aliens over the last decade, and is relocating in large numbers to other western cities. Las Vegas is one of the unfortunate recipients of this Thug Nation immigration, and that has spiked the crime rate dramatically in recent years.
OK, so crime is your big issue. It’s an issue with me, but not the biggest. I grew up in So Cal, and while I lived there I didn’t think that there was anything better. Sure I lived in the city of Orange, which was at that time small town America and was as nice a little town as you have ever seen, but I have had the opportunity (thanks to Uncle Sam) to live in several other areas across the country, some better, many worse, but looking at the big picture (crime included), I am freer and safer living in Virginia, than any other place that I have lived. Judging from what I have seen of the political and social climate in California, it is not the place to live if you consider yourself a free citizen.
