  1. Great job! Thank you for keeping our community safe.

  2. They used a gun? OMG defund the police now. I m sure that with proper counseling this guy would return the car.LA mayor has his head up his @#* along with a lot of other people

  3. Our (no your) delicate, effeminate Governor & Mayor are bringing our society down, just like the other Liberal administrations, ruing cities from Seattle to San Diego as well as other States!

    • Look no further than the White House for the most corrupt, incompetent and unqualified president ever. He has divided this country with his inflammatory and baseless rhetoric for too long. No leadership, no vision and no skills/plan to get our country out of this mess he has orchestrated these past 3+ years. Now you can deflect, blame and attempt to point elsewhere, but trump is the guilty party here. All he ever does is throw red meat to his delusional base and they all cheer him on as he continues to trample on our Constitution and avert the rule of law.

      As George Orwell stated: “A people that elect corrupt politicians, imposters, thieves and traitors are not victims but accomplices.”

      • You seem to be confused, but that’s to be expected coming from a constitutional lawyer, George Orwell was obviously referring to corrupt politicians, imposters, thieves and traitors, aka, democrats
        Stop spreading misinformation; it serves no one.

        You’ve had your 15 minutes of fame to many times on these threads, No one wants to hear you anymore.
        Enough, you hypocritical Democrat

        • Spreading misinformation, lies and distortions has been the only job the current occupant of the White House, Fox News, Russian Facebook bots and the feckless GOP has done for years. Ironically, your feeble attempt to attribute Orwell’s quote to Democrats is another example of misinformation being spewed by you and other likeminded minions. Hypocrisy is thy name.

          You do realize this is a public forum, as such, I will respond whenever I think or feel it is merited; you do not nor cannot speak for an entire community. Oh! and anointing oneself the “word police,” would be funny if it wasn’t so tragic.

          One last thing, you presume I am a Democrat because I am critical of the abysmal lack of leadership shown by Trump and his enablers. One would have to be willfully ignorant and/or negligent to believe that our nation and its citizens have been well served these past 3+ years. Our nation deserves better.

  4. In the last four weeks (28 days) there have been 32 cars stolen (GTA) in Santa Clarita. In that same time period 531 cars were stolen just in the west end of the San Fernando Valley. What’s makes such a huge difference? We have our outstanding Sheriffs Department actually enforcing the law and they have their Garcetti-controlled LAPD taking a knee.

    • LAPD is being run by weak leadership. They cave to the angry mob and by doing so, their officers are unable to enforce the law. LEOs hands are tied. Victims are the ones who suffer the most.

    Watch this video if people are interested in how many interactions have saved lives.

  6. Non shinning STAR P: Please see your phychritist! You’re off in Zombie land again! Lured & brainwashed by the Liberals like all sheep! May God have mercy on you!!??

  7. No one wants to hear another whiny democrat. Bye bye…

  8. Star P, You don’t know what you’re talking about. Go away…. And stop watching CNN

  9. Insanity lurks!! It’s everybody else’s fault, not the creature with chronic bad BEHAVIOR!! When one wears the uniform of a thug & behaves like a thug, what do you think the thugs destiny will be!?!!
