LA Mayor Garcetti and Governor Newsom approve Hollywood dining area 50 feet from restaurant they closed
NOQ ^ | December 4, 2020 | Blaine Traber

It would have been better for the owner of Pineapple Hill Saloon & Grill if Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti had come by and slapped her in the face. At least that would have caused temporary pain instead of the figurative slap in the face she received from the Mayor instead.

Her business has been financially ravaged by the coronavirus lockdowns. They’ve done everything they can to stay afloat, including making massive accommodations for outside dining with tables placed seven feet apart. Yet the latest round of “close everything” from both the Mayor and Governor Gavin Newsom have brought them and thousands of other businesses in Los Angeles to the point of desperation. Then, she saw this…

“Mayor Garcetti and Gavin Newsom is responsible for every single person who doesn’t have unemployment, that does not have a job, and all the businesses that are going under, and we need your help,” she said. “We need somebody to do something about this.”

They are holding a non-partisan rally to address the issue on Saturday.

Corporate interests and crony capitalism are inherent in California’s Democrat Party. Their ties to Big Labor and dependency on Hollywood have compelled them to make exceptions for those who do not need assistance while spitting in the faces of small business owners and the majority of California residents. This is just another example of their hypocrisy at play.

In the eyes of authoritarians, there are certain professions that are “essential” while those of us who are trying to take care of our families and serve our communities are not. Ironically, Garcetti Tweeted out his appreciation for the “essential” people earlier today even as his crew set up shop for Hollywood elites.

No words can fully express our gratitude for our essential workers — the unsung heroes keeping our city running and Angelenos safe.

We can’t say it enough: thank you. #LALove https://t.co/dTgr2DK2Pq

Her anger is righteous. The people will rise up against these tyrants. These tyrants will bend over backwards to make sure the politicians and stars they love to rub elbows with get to live and work normally but they’re happy to take everything from you. Truly evil people. https://t.co/b8FoPFJXwS

It’s like these politicians are trying to destroy all small businesses. Ridiculous!!! https://t.co/6WG8Bv5AnD

.@MayorOfLA and @GavinNewsom, these people and their heartbreaking stories will be your legacies. While you dine at private restaurants and live above your own oppressive laws, your constituents are starving and struggling. Get back to work FOR THEM (not corporations), or resign. https://t.co/JXEnc9vquI

There will be no response from @ericgarcetti or @GavinNewsom over this outrage.

Why?

Because they are cowards who prove they despise the will of the people by flaunting their hypocrisy over giggles and fancy dinners.

They are laughing at us, California. https://t.co/mjn288U7Vz

Hard working Californians are being figuratively spat on by Eric Garcetti and Gavin Newsom. All of them. Anyone who has worked hard to build a life for themselves is insignificant to these tyrants.

This is worse than an outrage. It’s a slap in the face of anyone who values freedom, self-reliance, and prosperity.

Gavin Newsom represents his donors from the Tech Industry in the Bay Area and obviously 5he film industry in Hollywood. He doesn’t give a $#!+ about everyone else.

It is past time for violent resistance and the tinpot dictators need to learn to fear the populace.

Big mistake nowadays...

In one life time leftist Democrats turned the crown jewel of America into a s**t bucket.

Amazing stuff.

Because this scamdemic has NEVER been about a damn virus. It has ALWAYS been about CONTROL.
This has been a test of the American People.

And, we’ve failed, miserably...

This woman was crying about this injustice...while wearing her mask.

You people should all open your businesses and churches. It is time for rebellion. They can’t arrest everyone. The way I see it, there are three choices: Either stay home, shut up, and wear your little paper mask, go about your business and tell the governor to pound sand, or burn the whole thing down.

The mayor set this area up for movie moguls and stars?
I want it documented in full.
I want a picture of every person who attends, at their tables stuffing their faces.
Post those pictures on every web page on the 'net.
I want to know all the people who will never see another nickel of my entertainment budget.
Furthermore, I want them all harassed while they are trying to eat, just like BLM amd Antifa have harassed conservatives eating outside constantly.
I want everyone involved to be smeared as the elitists and hypocrites they are.

And that's just some of the LEGAL things I want to do to them.
