You sure don't know much about modern science. The results of any modern study is directly related to who is paying for it and what results the payee wants to support an agenda. The possibility of lucrative carry-on studies also can effect results. Now days when you finance a scientific study you get what you pay for.
That's amazing. I didn't live here at the time. I was actually visiting my future husband's family here on the exact weekend of Rodney King's arrest and videotaping, but I was back east for the trial and the riots. Never saw any pictures like that on CNN.
A good friend of ours that lived in Torrance tells tales of how he would not leave any building without a loaded pistol. He drove with it on the seat next to him. It was that scary just getting to and from work.

I moved back from Seattle in 1991...just in time for Rodney King....I really didnt care about guns until the riots, then started buying them. I carried for three days after the Northridge earthquake, and actually drew a shotgun on some looters of our business that January morning.
So why do you have a radar detector?
The same reason you proably have one....
Right now, I'm currently going to UC Riverside. Certainly a place I do not want to live once I'm done with school. However, one thing about this shift in population away from LA is that Riverside is now solidly red. Sure, the city itself is pretty much a cruddy place to live (just drive down the the 215 and look out the window. Dirt, delapidated houses, brown landscape, woohoo!), horrible traffic, and the pollution is terrible, but at least you won't find a lot of Democrats here...away from the campus at least (pure socialism on campus though).
You like to use it for collision avoidance too?
It isn't new math. More residents left than new comers arrived (not counting births). 17250 more left. However, the county grew because of the 94,675 births. So the county grew by 77425.
Mostly for speeding purposes getting out of traffic, Diamond Lane....
Welcome to FR!
Yes it is but I am a native angeleno so I see the not so good things of what has happened here...
Geez, makes the townhouse we just bought in DC seem like a bargain.

+ that's without earthquake retrofitting, i'll bet.
i remember the l.a. riots.
we had the national guard in our strip mall to prevent von's and builders emporium from being burned down.
scary.
also, the chp motorcycle officer went off that one broken freeway to his death.
No mention of the root cause I see.
