L.A. County Sheriff Robert Luna announced several measures Thursday to ramp up security in areas that have been evacuated because of devastating fires in the area. More than 20 arrests have been made on suspicion of looting over the last few days.
As part of that effort, National Guard troops were in place Friday in some burn zones to provide protection.
“The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has officially requested the support of the California National Guard for both fires,” Luna said. “They will be assisting us with traffic control and critical infrastructure protection.
“Having additional resources, having the National Guard with us,” he added, “will help send a stronger message, keep people out of the impacted areas, so we don’t continuously victimize the people who have already been victimized.”
The sheriff also said the agency was working to implement a curfew that would run from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. “within the specific impacted areas around the two fire areas,” he said, referring to the Palisades fire in Pacific Palisades and the Eaton fire, which ignited in Altadena. He said he hoped to have it in place by Thursday night but definitely by Friday evening.
L.A. County Supervisor Kathryn Barger emphasized that the curfew was not to punish residents but to keep the area safe. She said the curfew was requested by the Altadena Town Council.

Will they have bullets this time?
So, you're saying that you want to punish the residents?
There’s a whole new fire in Granada Hills. I posted it twice but it was pulled twice by someone who doesn’t know what they are doing.
Maybe the source is not allowed...............

During the Galveston, TX hurricane back in/around 1900 looters were shot on sight. By the military.
Nah, it’s allowed. Something about a bogus headline which makes no sense.
Probably not.................
In their burned out houses?
See, those in government want to keep us safe. It's why they've rolled out the red carpet and left the lawless borders wide open for 50+ years, allowing in tens of thousands of gangsters, rapist, burglars, thieves, murderers, terrorist, spies...
Those in government are concerned for your safety. Please do what they tell you to do!
Yes but they can’t have “high capacity magazines”.
LOl now that right there was funny
I seem to recall some reason or other why that is not acceptable.
In the ‘92 LA riots, about 10,000 people were arrested for looting. Maybe more.
If memory serves me correctly, the vast majority were cut loose, no charges.
Get the Koreans out there, they handled themselves pretty well during the Rodney Dangerfield riots
”No respect, I tell ya....”
The Garcon brigades have been mobilized.
Brigades or Brigands?.........
