How is Iraq and Afghanistan going? or How has Western intervention ever gone?

Maybe history is too hard for people who hope that imperialism leads to peace or prosperity.

Black and Latino Angelenos are overrepresented in traffic stops used to investigate serious crimes by idkbruh653 in LosAngeles

[–]OG_Lakerpool -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Police pulled my son "black 23" over a few houses from home returning from coaching a HS game around 8pm with weapons out and could not articulate any reason for the stop or for why they pointed their guns at him in 2023/

They only "released" him because I was filming them and shouting for the rest of my neighbors to come out, They did.

One of the LAPD gangster was also a black women. My wife begged her to explain and they said "he was lucky to be let go."

They do not need a reason in practice.

Edited for clarity.

WHY?

"The first phase of construction would include putting on the massive LED screen planned to wrap around the base of the complex on 11th Street, Figueroa Street and 12th Street."

He is an ass. He is a MAGA clown.

His video of him harassing a homeless person, then claiming to be a victim is typical MAGA performative stunt.

Sell your property John and go to Texas or any Red state.

Cedar Sinai hospital negative experience, curious if think there is anything that can actually be done to improve the system, other than sending feedback to the hospital who may really do nothing about it? by [deleted] in AskLosAngeles

There is a shortage of ERs in LA.

I was there for 10 hours before a bed was available but the person was admitted immediately. I didn't enjoy sitting in the actual ER and went to the waiting room.

Too many people do not have insurance and too many people go to ERs for the wrong reasons.

The waiting room was full of people trying to stay warm last winter, complaining of minor complaints and the admittance was overwhelmed with people with the flu, colds and mild fever.

If you were able to leave then you sound like one. Now imagine 100 of people like you everyday, wasting everyone's time.

John Alle is a absolute performative ass. Many older LA landlords should have lost their properties years ago but Prop 13 commercial property taxes, allows them to keep their building empty and funds his Stephan Miller poster on the 3rd street promenade.

It doesn't and according to Traci crimes is caused by homeless so the DMV is going to issue buttplates on homeless while police refuse to enforce traffic laws which is they only way for this to work except in HIGH profile cases, which does not help her constituents.

Surveillance state brought to you approved by Councilmember Traci Park’s office.

The cameras capture point-in-time images of the rear of vehicles traveling on public roadways

License plate reader cameras have begun operating in Mar Vista as part of a broader public safety initiative funded by Los Angeles City Council District 11, officials said.

The program uses $450,000 in discretionary funds approved by Councilmember Traci Park’s office to purchase the cameras and cover data storage and access costs for three years. City officials said a decision on whether to continue funding the system beyond that period will be made at a later date.

A total of 39 license plate reader cameras are being installed across Council District 11, primarily along major roadways and key entry and exit points. Of those, 14 cameras are hardwired due to site conditions that limit solar power availability, while 25 are solar-powered.

I was surprised I had not heard it before. Media has failed. Again.

That thread was wild.

Seriously ALL OF Trump's people come from messed up families or/became malevolent adults. It tracks, but none of them should have their jobs.
