What’s going on with all of the cop cars next to Alameda Park on Micheltorena between Garden & Laguna?

There was a huge black army looking vehicle for a long time. Sounded like a swat team this morning. I can’t find any news on it but my neighbor just told me there are still cops outside.

    One site was the street below mine. Much better than having armed SWAT officers on the apartment walkway when I came down the stairs.

  2. One way to prevent more needles in city parks – one address is Alameda Park on East Micheltorena. Where the churches in this part of town provide overnight warming and feeing stations for the vagrant populations that dominate the near by parks.

  3. The irony of it all. No good will come out of legalization of any drugs. So if you push enough you’ll get your way, is that how it works, that’s what kids do to get thier way, so as responsible adults we’re to say no and teach the reason as to no. Not give in.
    I do know your being sarcastic here. I get it.
    Just wish others would have, before they decided to legalize drugs. Now I here people saying out loud I’m going to be a marijuana seller, my goal in life is to has a dispensary. Wow.
    My grandmother used to say “ we’re going to hell in a hand basket “ the future looks grim if this is the way of the United States. Crazy.

  4. Now that our state and local governments have directly entered the drug dealing business you can expect them to push drugs just like they push gambling from their lottery business. Why can our government push drugs and gambling on a populace that frankly they failed to educate adequately in the first place?

  5. Wow, your very judgmental, you must be god, my first name is crystal and my dogs name is maui, not that I have to even tell you anything, but your a jerk

  6. To the person who likes to assume to much,
    I’m not the one breaking laws or doing drugs here or selling drugs.
    I dare you to judge me, in that kind of content,
    Your an ass,
    My name is crystal and my dogs name is maui, Because of the island.
    So now what, you have more crap to assume about people you don’t know.
