Remember when ‘Sanctuary City’ Los Angeles was up in arms because of the Arizona “illegal immigration” laws? Their mayor, Antonio Villaraigosa led the charge to boycott Arizona because it sought to lawfully defend itself from illegals with, among other things, a wall. Remember? Well now consider this:  LOS ANGELES (CBS) — Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa has asked for approval for a six-foot-wall around the Getty House, the mayor’s official residence in Windsor Square, according to city documents. But at least one planning official was “caught off guard” by Villaraigosa’s request for increased security around the taxpayer-owned property. 
The mayor’s office filed its request on Feb. 2 for a variance to city bylaws with plans to erect a security wall around the property at 605 S. Irving Blvd. Officials say the wall’s design includes “embedded” security features that will save taxpayer money by cutting costs for security staffing. Initially, the mayor proposed an eight-and-a-half-foot wall, which was quickly rejected by the Windsor Square Association.  Villaraigosa has scaled down his plans, but the new proposal still exceeds the permitted 42-inch height.  (full story) …….. WHY ??
(Los Angeles Reports ) ….. In what is still a very early point of the year, multiple incidents have raised alarm and have forced many to wonder whether or not there is an upward trend in crime. So far this year, from a citywide perspective, there has been a 22% increase in homicides, perhaps not a stark revelation for anyone following Los Angeles news so far this year. In fact, there have been 55 homicides thus far, whereas at this point last year there were 44. In South L.A., there have been 19 homicides, whereas at this point last year there were 14. Two areas that are particularly impacted are the Southeast and Northeast regions. In Cypress Park yesterday, a drive-by attack was followed by a wild shootout between gang members and police, resulting in dozens of blocks being shut-down for several hours. According to an L.A. Times article written about this occurrence, “The city’s Northeast Division, typically far from the most violent in the city, already has eight homicides this year, more than any other,” police said. At that rate, the division would far eclipse last year’s total of 18. It is believed that Avenues and Cypress Park gangs are responsible for the rise in crime affecting this part of the city.
Gang-related incidents in Monrovia recently prompted Monrovia police Captain Rick Miglia to admit a lack of understanding in regards to the recent escalation in violence. Also recently, the unfortunate death of Randall Simmons represents the first SWAT officer to be killed in the line of fire in the unit’s nearly 40-year history.
Making these recent events additionally alarming is the fact that, to begin this year, Mayor Villaraigosa (featured left), Police Chief William Bratton and Councilwoman Janice Hahn publicly announced that the past year witnessed a drop in homicide rates to a level unseen in 37 years, a commendable announcement for a city that is often associated with crime.

Now consider the ‘sanctuary’ mayor railing against border enforcement, then asking for a fence, while crime escalates out of control in “HIS” city, and yet what outrage do we bear witness to regarding the sheer terror occurring next door?  ((( crickets )))  Read on…..

Much of the violence in Juárez is sparked by drug trafficking organizations battling over one of the major smuggling corridors into the United States. (much more)
The truth, the cold hard unfilterable truth, is not in alignment with the narrative from the left.  Not one bit.   No amount of media manipulation, you know the… ‘nothing to see here…. move along…. move along’… manipulations/distractions can avoid the simple visibility of the obvious.   But they are sure trying.  Really does reinforce the possibility that Liberalism is indeed a mental disorder huh’……….. /SD
