It's no way to run a speciesWhat kind of moral compass says it's OK to hit people in the head with a shovel because of their skin color?
I realize people have been doing this for 10,000 years but that still doesn't make it right.

I read that cretens were crazy.years ago, i hired a girl who had recently graduated pratt ( i would need to see proof that you actually graduated and weren’t expelled for behavioral reasons ).
she actually grew up on crete. we worked together for a few years, and she was a pretty good designer. eventually her parents got older and she moved back to athens and became a hotshot at foote, cone, belding.
i would always remind her what hemingway said about greece.
look it up.

its not looking so nice around there rn...they cleaned up that park so nice over the last 10 years and now its back to hell..worse than ever actually. feel bad for all the people who moved in their after the gentrification, now to be stuck back in the "hood."My friend grew up in Echo Park in the late 70s early 80s when it was the hood.
He talked all about it to his kids about how dangerous echo park was. He finally got the opportunity to take them there last year and it was all nice. Blew his mind. His kids lold and didnt believe his stories.
When the homeless move into a neighborhood, the homies aren't far behind.its not looking so nice around there rn...they cleaned up that park so nice over the last 10 years and now its back to hell..worse than ever actually. feel bad for all the people who moved in their after the gentrification, now to be stuck back in the "hood."
Btw, not surprised about Leimert Park - its actually really nice over there now. I was helping out with a doc about 6 years ago and was totally surprised how much it hd changed since the late 90's/ early 2000's.
The local elites play a long game of turning hoods to shyte with their policies, buying them cheap, gentrifying, selling high, and repeating.its not looking so nice around there rn...they cleaned up that park so nice over the last 10 years and now its back to hell..worse than ever actually. feel bad for all the people who moved in their after the gentrification, now to be stuck back in the "hood."

I noticed the change in 92 right after the riots. Those who could, left LA for the safety of the beach. That drove prices up. But even up until 2000, it was still manageable. before I got married and bought a place, (believe it or not, it was cheaper to buy in OC) I rented a 2 BR for $750/mo on 12th St.gentrification started ramping up in manhattan beach what? 40 yrs ago? its like me being pissed i couldnt afford a house in lunada when i got out of high school
You should be pissed at yourself for being such a white boy.Yeah. That's the reason I don't live in Manhattan Beach anymore. Not by choice. And I'm as white as they come. Who should I be pissed at???
the difference is that the culture embraces/ed itits all personal perspective. the south bay beach cities were a mix of blue collar neighborhood and white surf slums up through the 70's.
by the late 80's money was aready well established and the "renovations" were in full swing basically destroying the former character of the south bay and replacing it with $$$
