"Those who have fared worst under this president are the ones who love him the most "
As gossip websites buzzed about Gwyneth Paltrow and President Obama — her “you’re so handsome that I can’t speak properly” is already being mocked unmercifully — her Los Angeles neighbors lashed out Friday that the Paltrow-hosted presidential fund-raiser had come at their expense.Traffic stood still, children were stranded at school, residents could not leave their own driveways. That’s not the way life is supposed to be lived in Mandeville Canyon.In a post on the Nextdoor Mandeville Canyon website, a private social network for area residents, Bret Lewis said that the neighborhood did not need people like Ms. Paltrow “who pay no heed to the concerns of their neighbors.”
Like any of these cowards and thugs have ever done anything to contribute to this country. Clearly they don’t appreciate the freedom that the flag represents. Like for instance, the freedom of speech and assembly. Or possible the human rights protections that keep the cops from opening fire on them.I think the police have tolerated this uncivil unrest long enough. I get it that they are scared of looking like bullies for cracking down on these miscreants, but how much longer should they let the streets erupt in chaos? There is constant destruction of private property, normal citizens are living in fear, and the cost to the city and county has to be astronomical dealing with these “peaceful” protests every night.
