==Los Angeles, California==
[[File:Antifa Hollywood.png|right|350px|thumb|Progressives looted expensive stores on [[Hollywood values|Hollywood]]'s fashionable Rodeo Drive.]]
[[Los Angeles]] has had one Republican mayor since 1961.
In December 2020 Los Angeles District Attorney (LADA) George Gascon (D) entered office and released his plans to significantly downsize and dissolve LA County’s hardcore gangs unit. When entering office, Gascon immediately prevented his prosecutors from seeking the death penalty or issuing a cash bail for non-violent criminals. Steve Cooley, the former LADA, referred to Gascon as a “functional outlaw… basically, George Gascon is a George Soros puppet, and that is dangerous.” When Gascon’s plans coupled with two California Propositions (47 & 57) and Assembly Bill 109, the limited policing on gangs led to an immediate explosion in gang activity from prematurely-released violent gang-affiliated felons.
In 2019, Los Angeles was statistically one of the safest cities in the United States. Homicides dropped to 5 per 100,000 people, and violent crime was at 560 per 100,000. Less than a year into his tenure as District Attorney, violent crime, attacks and robberies of citizens, animal cruelty, and heightened rates of human trafficking throughout Southern California have risen. Between 2019 and 2021, homicide rose 116 percent, aggravated assault increased 19.9 percent, vehicular theft rose 24 percent, with a 224 percent increase in individuals being shot. By February 2021, gang-related homicides were up 266.7 percent and gang-related shootings increased 133.3 percent. Attacks on police officers also rose 300 percent in the first 18 days of January 2021 when compared to the same time period in 2020.
Los Angeles currently is undergoing a [[typhus]] epidemic.<ref>https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/typhus-reaches-epidemic-levels-parts-los-angeles-area-n917271</ref> Typhus is the name given to a group of bacterial infections transmitted to people living in crowded and unsanitary conditions by lice and fleas, coming from infected rats. The rats are attracted into the human environment by unsanitary conditions created by humans.
Los Angeles Democrats sold off all its emergency medical stockpiles and ventilators for a respiratory pandemic in 2011.<ref>https://www.redstate.com/jenvanlaar/2020/03/29/ca-dismantled-its-mobile-hospital-system-ventilator-stockpile-in-2011/</ref>
During the 2020 leftist uprising rioters beat up a cop<ref>https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/05/leftist-mob-beats-police-officer-street-la-officer-mobbed-rescued-good-samaritan/</ref> and burnt a police vehicle.<ref>https://streamable.com/61mdlo</ref> The city's Democrat mayor Eric Garcetti cut funding for the police department by $250 million.<ref>https://youtu.be/DcGSvEl44ow</ref> LAPD reported that during the week of May 31 to Jun 6 homicides went up 250% and victims shot went up 56% compared to the previous week.<ref>https://twitter.com/LAPDHQ/status/1270441223753396224</ref>
In April 2021 during the covid pandemic a Black woman assaulted and hospitalized a 70-year-old [[Mexican]]-American woman she mistook for an Asian, hurling anti-Asian insults while brutally beating the victim. The victim's face and eyes were left swollen, her nose was broken, hair was pulled out of her head and she suffered a concussion, her son reported. She was dragged from the back of the bus to front. "ld help, not even the bus driver" in the California [[Democratic party|Democratic stronghold]].<ref>https://remezcla.com/culture/70-year-old-mexican-woman-severely-beaten-assailant-thought-asian/</ref> In Irvine, California a man who was radicalized by [[mainstream media|mainstream]] [[fake news]] [[propaganda]] about a supposed [[white supremacist]] hate crime wave targeting Asians took revenge by sexually assaulting a woman at gunpoint he presumed to be white. The victim was in fact Asian.<ref>https://summit.news/2021/04/14/man-radicalized-by-asian-hate-crime-media-propaganda-attacks-asian-woman-he-mistakenly-thought-was-white/</ref>
The announcement by Joe Biden of his appointment of [[white supremacist]] Los Angeles mayor [[Eric Garcetti]] as [[Secretary of Housing and Urban Development]] was met with peaceful protests by Black Lives Matter.<ref>https://www.dailywire.com/news/black-lives-matter-leader-calls-l-a-mayor-garcetti-a-liberal-white-supremacist-speaks-out-against-potential-cabinet-appointment</ref>
