Well I see here in this group of "do gooders" now the Sheriff who when watching a man burn alive with his dog said oh no it is going just as we planned....this vicious bastard on county payroll - a man burned alive, and he says it was part of the plan? So now we have Larry Flynt and Irving Moskowitz being greeted on all fours by the city fathers throughout the area for they are reopening casinos, etc., something which has always proven to operate at a loss in the area? LA Times also now has a Porn Column so you see how these criminals have sold out - but we were warned, they are mainlining pornography now. And Flynt hasn's learned his lession yet? He has always been a front man for the mob - and with a criminal sodomy charge against him in Cincinnati - they call this a respectable front? So see now how much Los Angelos cares for people - movie stars long used to run drugs, and rock stars as well used - but why let them contaminate Los Angeles further. ' Did these people suddenly go hungry over night while the pigs cups runneth over? While gambling casinos are now being promoted - doesnt this sound like Castro's Cuba when he took over same and threw the bastards out - people starving, while Meyer Lansky and his henchmen ran the gambling houses, drugs, and prostitution and pornography? Right of return? Well looks like the chickens or shall we say vultures, came to roost to California. And it also looks like a few Sheriffs and policemen and city officials are on the bit time take. Remember the name Sheriff Boca - he watched while a man burnt to death with his dog and said nothing to worry about - it all went as planned. Maybe when Los Angeles his hit by the big one - and some of these bastards are swallowed up like Kore and the people dancing in the shoddy construction example of mafia contracting - remember the ones where the press said at this wedding they were all dancing, havin fun and boom.......it was like the earth swallowed them all up......shoddy construction, not hand of god. Or was it. Saba � �� � LA named America's hunger capital STUDIO CITY , September 7 - The city of power lunches, with an economy comparable to that of most countries, also had the distinction Friday of being nation's hunger capital. Thursday, elected officials and food bank directors from around Los Angeles declared a critical shortage of emergency food supplies and called for a collaborative effort to alleviate the problem. "There is no excuse for the fact that half a million Angelenos go hungry every night," said Los Angeles Councilman Eric Garcetti. He was among those who spoke to reporters at the North Hollywood Interfaith Food Pantry. "This is a crisis of emergency proportions, and we need to begin addressing it as such," the first-year lawmaker said. Garcetti said families and other residents typically spend half their incomes on rent, squeezing food budgets and ultimately putting pressure on supplies at food banks. He suggested increasing the number of food markets and community gardens in hard-hit communities. Sheriff Lee Baca showed up to support the effort. "It is a public safety issue to not have food," he said. "It is a public safety issue to be mentally ill. It is a public safety issue to be homeless. Every American deserves to have a safety net." According to studies done by the county health department, about 584,000 people in Los Angeles County go hungry at some point during the year, and an estimated 1.4 million experience some sort of "food insecurity," which includes poor nutrition. "This shouldn't go on in the U.S. and certainly not in one of the most affluent counties in America," said Jay Levin, president of Share With the Other L.A. Campaign. Major food banks and charitable groups in the county are trying to jumpstart an effort they call the "L.A. and California Hunger-Free Zone Program." Organizers have set up www.lapoverty.org and a toll free number at (877) NO-HUNGER to assist members of the public in getting involved. Senate Majority Leader Richard Polanco, D-Los Angeles, "is committed to working with (the anti-hunger groups) to see what we can do out of Sacramento," according to his aide Bill Mabie. � Current Conditions�60� HIGH 77� LOW 64� �� �TOP STORIES�LOCAL SPORTS�LOCAL WEATHER� � �MORE L.A.
