ILUVAdrianaLima Posted November 12, 2016 Posted November 12, 2016 Some good news out of the elections this past Tuesday! Glad to see Los Angeles and its people taking the initiative for long term investment in mass infrastructure Quote Measure M: Angelenos vote to tax themselves for better public transit A large majority of Los Angeles voters approved a permanent sales tax increase to fund a major expansion of the county’s public transit system. Measure M required two-thirds of voters to approve it, and handily achieved this goal, with almost 70 percent voting yes.By adding a countywide half-cent increase to the sales tax—which will increase to one-cent when the existing Measure R tax expires in 2039—Measure M will bring in $860 million annually for decades. This money will fund transportation projects which will dramatically transform the region, including a rail line to LAX, a subway under the Sepulveda Pass, and a Purple Line extension to Westwood. Additionally, Measure M will pay for much-needed sidewalk improvements, pothole repairs, cycling infrastructure, bike share expansion, and a network of greenways. To envision how much of a change that Angelenos will see on their streets, Investing in Place notes that up to 8 percent of Measure M’s funds will go towards walking and biking investments, compared to the 1 percent allocated to walking and biking in LA’s current transportation spending. Although Measure M had a large coalition of support, South Bay leaders opposed it because it did not bring enough investment to their region. Over the last few weeks, Mayor Eric Garcetti campaigned heavily for the measure, and positioned its passage as key to the city’s future. As he told the Los Angeles Times last night: “There is nothing to be depressed about in Los Angeles when we wake up tomorrow.” Quote

PrettyDeadThings Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 wtf do the police have to do this with? So now you're taking out your shit on random people? If they wanna keep playing this way I say bring out the water canons. 'Kill the police!' Anti-Trump protesters chant death threats at cops in Indianapolis, and demonstrators are tear-gassed in Portland as tens of thousands take to the street nationwide for fourth night of violence Police hurled flash grenades and used tear gas on protesters on Saturday night as anti-Trump demonstrations continued across the country in the fourth night of unrest since his shock election victory. Dozens of people were arrested in Portland, Oregon, where crowds threw burning road flares. Hundreds gathered outside City Hall in Los Angeles to face off against riot police after a daytime march with drew 8,000 people. Other rallies took place in Atlanta, Salt Lake City, Washington DC, and Phoenix, as the anti-Trump backlash continued to grow. In Indianapolis, crowds chanted 'kill the police' as they threw rocks at officers in a separate protest. Quote
PrettyDeadThings Posted November 13, 2016 Posted November 13, 2016 O.o and this why we have guns people, so we can protect ourselves against special snowflakes who feel self entitled to harm you for no good reason. Whether on the streets, or in your home it simply doesn't matter. 7 minutes ago, Stromboli1 said: Protestors are trying to disband the electoral college now by a petition.
