On Monday, off-duty LAPD officer Fernando Arroyos and his girlfriend were out in South L.A. looking at houses, in anticipation of getting married and settling down there. Sure, it was after dark, and most Angelenos do not venture out at night these days, but Fernando was LAPD, highly trained in police work and educated at U.C. Berkeley, and thought he had it all down. Then four gangbangers from the local crime organization (too highly advanced to be called a gang), Florencia 13, saw the silver chains around his neck and decided to rob him. Arroyos told his girlfriend to run. Shots rang out, at least one hit Arroyos, and he died on the way to the hospital.
On Thursday, a 70-year-old nurse was attacked by a transient, right in front of Union Station, as she was waiting for a bus. (Public transport is often dangerous for people who work in downtown L.A.) She died in the hospital four days later.
Later that day, in a fashionable neighborhood in L.A. — in fact, the location of the mayor's mansion — a lovely young woman and recent college grad, Brianna Kupfer, was working in a design store on the busy main street, when a man walked in and for some inexplicable reason stabbed her to death. Just a fluke, the usual reassuring lie?

Directly linked to the random violence in our streets, the Los Angeles homeless situation has exploded in the past couple of years despite billions spent to stop it. Villanueva is also the only official who has stepped up with any credible enforcement of vagrancy, drug-dealing, and assault laws. No matter that violence is perpetrated on and by what the leftist city structure euphemistically calls "the homeless" or "persons currently experiencing homelessness." The police have admitted that Ms. Kupfer's killer was likely a homeless person, for instance, as was the man who killed the nurse at a bus stop.
No.
No.
from whom, for whom, for what purpose?
No.
no
A Lost Angel is, by definition, a demon. Demons are beyond salvation.
“Ms. Kupfer’s killer was likely a homeless person”
They arrested him yesterday. 24 previous felonies. He was out on bail after shooting into a car.
If one side supports law and order, belief in God, the American Way of Life , gun rights preserved and freedom and justice equally for all citizens
and the other side stands for BLM, wokeness, Marxism, anti white racism, anti Americanism, atheism, glorification of paganism and idol worship, and support for the Democrat Party at all levels of government
then, no.
Yeah, if you drop a nuclear bomb on it.
Oh, and by whom?
Some people are just no damn good. My solution wouldn’t work.
Sad.
We looked forward to going to LA (and SF) years ago. No more.
Methinks geology will help in adjusting everyone’s attitude there.

No.
Saved from whom? From the LA government? From the Angelitos who voted for them?
The real question should be “Does Los Angeles WANT to be saved?”
There’s a chance we can save Los Angeles: get rid of Congress member Maxine Waters and clean up her Congressional district. That right there would eliminate a huge fraction of the crime and blight problems plaguing the city.
How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! . . .Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
A sanctuary city that won’t arrest thieves unless they steal more than $750, that won’t remove a 50-block chunk of the city taken over by squatters, that wants to defund the police; No...they are getting what they want.
We could sell it to Mexico.
As a side note, why would you go around wearing a gold chain?
