Democracy for the rich. After the Rodney King uprising in 1992 the city of Los Angeles donated 14 acres of desolate urban landscape to the people in the neighborhood. The people reclaimed the land and made 350 garden plots. This farm kept kids off the streets and off drugs. It feed the poor and gave the area a sense of community. Now the city has taken it back. They destroyed the crops, the infrastructure, and the lives of many people. They plan to build a warehouse in it's place.

Los Angeles is probably the most polluted city in the country. This temple of nature was creating less pollution, improving a severely broken community, and was destroyed in the interest of corruption and greed. She's wrong, poor people DO have a right to clean air, that right is just not honored as it should be. The city should never have sold the land back to Mr. Horowitz without consideration for it's benefits and let him destroy it how they did. What's left now is the hope for change.
Nothing. The land was gifted to the people and thus it was being used. The farm was take down, because of economic and political forces. That isn't too surprising.
This "title" you speak of, was made possible through theft. The so called "illegals" you speak of, are the children of the natives of this land. I don't think anyone should be respecting the concerns or wishes of criminals.
Wolves and sheep, homie. War wasn't a foreign concept to the indigenous people before they got conquered. To the victor goes the spoils. It's been like that since the beginning of time and you haven't seemed to catch on. It's adverse to humanity but it's the reality of human nature to have war. We've done great things with this land so I'm unapologetic about supporting private ownership and entrepreneurialism and defending our nation from chaos. What has your country done?
So? Does that make the West right? I don't think so and thus I don't even bother defending the state. Saying that, keep on thinking like that, because eventually someone's going to slit your throat with that kind of morality.
I don't believe in non-violence, but social Darwinism (a flawed concept) doesn't always come with full return. The reverse can occur, considering obesity is at high, and the white population is aging.
The odds of me slitting their throat before they slit mine are pretty good. Wolves and sheep, homie. I don't understand your reference to obesity and white people and it's connection to anything I've said or this topic of discussion. I think I've probably widened your concept of reality and you don't like it. I don't either but it's reality.
Are the rulers of the world the top 1 or 5% in US? The first group's minimal household income is ~$320,000 (2 or more sources), and the latter is $130,000 (ditto).
If yes, I totally agree, and these individuals that I see in person should see their "earnings" confiscated. In the end, their surplus was generated through theft.
My America is not your America, and I'm very much an American. You obviously have your opinions about people who don't look like you or didn't grow up the way you did. Intolerance is an unfortunate personality trait, especially in America. I will continue to fight such mentalities, but wish you luck in your growth. Did you find out what is currently on this plot of land? I'd really like to know.
Homie, I'm from San Bernardino and was raised in this shit and the only intolerance I've shown in my posts is intolerance for reactionary ignorance and disregard for private ownership and the American way. In America, you catch on or fall off and the only way to survive is to own something. Don't make assumptions that my remarks are racist. They're nationalistic, not racist. You can be from Europe and shit on America, and I'll loath you as much as a Mexican that does the same.
In answer to your question about what's on the land: There's room for industry on that land at the moment. You want me to say it's just a dirt lot which was a poor trade for the garden that was there, I know. But there will be a business there one day and it will employ people in the community and generate taxable income for the city to support the infrastructure. Now answer this; where have the farmers gone? What did they ultimately end up with and do you feel they deserve what they have now?

Good luck with the economic crisis.
