Dozens of people were seen crowding the street in front of Crypto.com Arena in downtown Los Angeles overnight, lighting off fireworks and doing donuts at a street takeover.
The Los Angeles Police Department was not able to confirm many details surrounding the incident right away; however, preliminary information indicates that crowds had gathered in the area of Figueroa and 12th streets around 2:50 a.m. Saturday.
Video from the scene shows participants igniting fireworks and doing donuts and burnouts as many bystanders cheered in the roadway, blocking traffic and recording the antics. Some were seen standing on top of scaffolding in front of a building across the street to get a better view.

LA has gone Gotham, next stop is Mad Max.

Not sure what is required for a city gubmint to host the Olympics.
But I’m pretty sure whatever is required is not currently in place.
It is behavior like this that caused me to move to the smallest, most rural agricultural town I could find. It’s been a big improvement. Maybe I’ll visit an American city again one day if I become better at bullet-dodging.
This is happening all over the country. Happening frequently in central Florida. Several intersections still have the dozens of tire marks from the cars.
Where were the police that could have dispersed tear gas?

Easier said then done.
My first thought was to check for citizenship but it’s California.
But how can you survive without "the theater?"
Pretty sure they were using other people’s cars.
Leaving California is NOT hard. Just put your stuff in your car and take I-10, I-40, or I-80 and drive east.
