He must have come in his pants
At least? What do you know Mayor Sam?
does he have a big head? or does she have a little head?
that photo is wacky if you look at it too long.
They are BOTH going to jail.
PRESS RELEASE:
Mayor offers to "MENTOR" Paris Hilton.
It seems the only ones going to jail are Paris and LAPD Metro Officers...
Eveyone else gets a pass...
Just because State or US Attorney's office decides to investigate a City municipality, doesn't mean they will be able to find any evidence of wrong-doing. (Emphasis on "be able to find".) If they can't, maybe I can let them borrow ZD's "Bat Computer."
First thing I would do, is run a list of tract map and zoning change aprrovals in CD 2 against the list of clients at Froniter Building Supply and see if there are any correlations.
Antonio has shown what a fucking idiot and coward he really is. Blaming the cops instead of the illegals for the incident is laughable. Let's see who wants to join LAPD now when you have poltiicans supporting people who break the law. Listen to KFI today cause at least they aren't afraid to say the truth. when the gangs get out of control and officers aren't going to use aggressiveness and the gang bangers act up in neighborhoods I say call Antonio to fix the problem. LA Slimes againa today calls him a rock star? This small man, small dick asshole hasn't done shit and when the tough got going like a coward he leaves the city. He hasn't done shit and those white teeth are as bad as Regis' way overdone.
While I do agree special order 40 ought to be repealed and the US government ought to enforce laws already on the books prohibiting illegal entry into the United States, I fail to see how that issue has any relevance to the actions of the officers last week in MacArthur Park.
I can only consider that one must have an incredible bias in their thought process if they fail to include the following facts:
1.) Many/most of the crowd in MacArthur Park did not hear a dispersal warning as it was issued from a helicopter that was not over MacArthur Park.
2.) That most of the crowd at MacArthur Park was peaceful and did not include gang members.
3.) That the people that did cause the disruptions were small in number(30-40 as stated by Chief Bratton).
4.) That the people who caused the disruption were herded by the Metro Officers skirmish line into Macarthur Park and into the primarily peaceful crowd.
5.) That skirmish lines truly can appear out of no where. The majority of people in MacArthur Park were unaware that a police skirmish line was moving through the park until it was very close to them. BTW, if you have never been in this situation pls STFU because you really don't have a clue. Really, the skirmish line will appear to come out of no where. I was in one on All Star game weekend last year in Los Angeles. I was simply sitting in my car in traffic on Sunset Bl. and Curson(the 7-11 for those of you that know the area) and all of the sudden officers...like 30 of them materialized out of behind my car. A skirmish line was formed within 15 seconds or so. Really. Oh yeah, the officers were incorrect on location by about only a mile or so :(
6.) That LAPD media relations set up a required(by LAPD policy) safe zone for reporters because Rampart Command Staff failed to do so. This safe zone was ignored by Metro officers.
7.) Bratton stated that policies were not followed. He stated that officers acted inappropriately.
I wonder where your support of the officers...what factual basis do you have to continue to blast the media and find no fault in LAPD in light of the above facts?
How much do these illegal alien rallies cost taxpayers in police costs, cleanup costs, OT etc.? Last years must have cost a bundle, and this year we'll get soaked with legal costs as well.
All the more reason LA has to rescind Special Order 40, and end sanctuary city policies.
So Paris calls her sentence of 45 days "unfair." What a little whiner!
Personally, I feel that if she loses her appeal, that little blonde bimbo should serve an additional 45 days for wasting both the court's and taxpayers' time!
His advisors sent him to El Salvador to avoid another "we clean your toilets" debacle, but he came home early, trashed the cops and made another illegal alien coddling speech along with his ethno-militant weasel mutant brother Fabian Nunez.
There's no way Villaraigosa is going national - he can't help himself! Once a hard-left, anti-law enforcement radical, ALWAYS a hard-left, anti-law enforcement radical.
L.A. may appreciate this crap, but America does not. You bottom-feeder staffers better start looking for another rising star.

Thats a good one! I had forgotten all about that tagger kid he offered to mentor! Oh wait...so did he.
Dang.
MacArthur Park, before and after.
Oh Shit! The Mayor's gonna going to Jail?
Gee, I wonder why all the blogs and surveys of media are supporting the cops. Maybe because they are sick and tired of illegals ruining their cities. Antonio is a coward and ran like a stray dog out of the city. He's only now getting his photo ops. Jill Leovy stated that the media heard the dispersal order. John Ziegler KFI played the helicoper announcement 3 times and taken from a website and it is clear. Who's fault is it that these illegals have been here some for over 10 years and still fail to learn ENGLISH. MS13 runs MacArthur Park. It is filled with criminals, drugs, illegal fake document sales, illegal vendors and we're suppose to believe its a family park. Why do you think illegals go there? To make tax free money and scam the system. There is going to be a huge backlash. Let's see if cops go after the gang bangers like Antonio wants. Let's see the next time a gang banger extorts money or assaults an illegal if cops respond. What has he done for his legal Latinos? Not a damn thing. He's a failure, LAUSD, living wage ordinance and he thinks planting trees is the answer. Heaven help this city.
Antonio loves to keep company with criminals, Richard Alatorre, Richard Meuerlo, Father Gang Banger Boyle. Its his element.
Nunez is totally out of control.
Not a chance in Hell he will be ever be LA Mayor after his instantly infamous "target practice on immigrants" speech.
Actually.....
MacArthur Park is no longer run by MS-13. LAPD installed survelliance cameras in the park a few years back. Drive by sometime. During the day it is mostly nearby residents and their families. And some homeless people and drug addicts. At night it is completely empty.
I wonder if someone could provide statistics for LAPD as to the number of indviduals arrested at Macarthur Park in the past 6 months vs. a 6 month period 5 years ago.
Bottom line is that the assertion that gangs/criminals run MacArthur Park is currently false and basically irrelevant to the matter of the imigration rallies and police brutality. Frankly, MS-13 influence in the overall area of MacArthur Park has diminished due to the influx of Korean-born residents in the area. MS-13 has gained a tighter grip in Hollywood and parts of SF Valley.
BTW, as to the police in LA protecting citizens......do any of you actually live in Los Angeles?
I do, and can inform you that you will be dead if you wait for LAPD to respond to a threat. And no, police in other cities do not have that long a response time.
I wonder if any of the police protesters were of the old Revolutionary Communist Party ilk.
Remember their May Day rallies that were yearly skirmishes with the LAPD. They would bring their protest signs affixed to baseball bats and go at the LAPD like combatants. The cops would respond in kind. If any veterans of those days saw each other at the end of the rally no wonder all hell broke loose.
You still have to wonder, who gave the order to fire and under what provocation? Also, who decided to march the demonstrators into the families and newscasters instead of surrouynding and arresting them?
Bratton is no fool. The two cops he busted are going to retire this year anyway' along with about 300 others.
Mayor Villaraigosa really comes to life on this one. He's really in his element when he "lays down the law" on what police did wrong and how it's going to cost them.
By the way, it might be nice of him to consider the impact of lawsuits on the taxpayers' dollars in the city treasury. Where does he think the money will come from to pay verdicts and settlements in litigation that his "inflamatory" comments certainly encourage?
He was also nice to we city residents in promoting, or ramrodding, the creation of a new monthly "fee" for trash collection to pay for police since that was the "only" way to get more on the street. C'mon, mayor, that's simply disingenuous.
Villaraigos is killing police and general morale, though not single-handedly, but close, and the difficult task of recruitment of new police officers is going to suffer.
Police did wrong. Only a few, but in a big way. You don't get any free conks on people and just say, "oops"- in fact, many think that was fine. Nice if more apprehensions of real culprits had happened to make it at least seems worthwhile. Who was in charge?
Some of the news people just looked like they got "jumped" by some of the cops. Not acceptable. No one was killed, but that shouldn't be the threshhold that changes the need for scrutiny from "important" to "not important."
I heard reports that the Metro people had no riot training for over a year. They need more scenarios to practice to handle things properly.
I also add, police need to wear Numbers to identify them and remove the anonymous quality that may tend to give them free reign to gratuitously apply a big helping of force where it's not called for.
It would make "accountability" more readily implemented. And why is Mayor Villaraigosa using that word? It just highlight his own lack of accountability to the City and the residents (especially the legal ones).
Lastly, Will someone tell Mayor V to enunciate the words "going to" occasionally, instead of that street talk, "gonna", i.e., "We're gonna investigate this," etc.
What do his aides get paid for if not grooming him in his use of language (English, yes) as well as his other vanity items?
