@TheGussReport - Last week, I had productive dialogues with several Los Angeles politicians. My rule for engaging is simple: conversation or respond directly to emailed questions. I don't accept prepared statements from their media personnel because they are a dodge that answers questions that aren't posed rather than those that are.
One of those dialogues took place as I made my way to the scene of yet another random sidewalk death, this one in still-un-represented Van Nuys, thanks to the resignation of Nury Martinez, LA's irrefutably racist former City Council president.
Except the politician didn't address any of the questions I emailed.
Instead, while offering validation for my recent columns, the politician expressed a wish that I would also, "recognize in your writing some of our work and efforts in the district."
Easier said than done.
