| brettiscool's Full Review: Los Angeles |
The title explains everything. After seeing the Lakers win the NBA Championship Monday night, I was extremely happy. Unfortunately, some members of the 11th street gang and some other people had to take it too far and burn police cars, news cars, and destroy property. This shows that Los Angeles is a dangerous place that is way out of control! Truly, it is not. I have lived in Los Angeles almost all of my life. The attractions are great, but some areas you just don't go to. No offense to anyone, but South Central and East Los Angeles just aren't the places to be. There is too much violence. Everywhere else is fine, just about. It really annoys me as a Los Angeleno to see others destroying things like police cars that are there to protect us. It bugged me to see property damaged. How is burning and damaging ways of celebrating? Really, you are hurting yourself. Thanks to Shaq and the rest of the Lakers, Shaq has offered to pay for a new police cruiser and the rest of the Lakers are chipping in to get another one. That shows that these guys have hearts. Their message was not to do it again. They told the fans after the game to stop, but no one is going to make those guys stop.
Back to Los Angeles and the city itself. I believe most of the County is very safe and very nice. It is a nice place to live and most people are nice. It happens to be fun here, no matter what anyone else says. There are a lot of different things to do here. Sports are a major thing. Overall, it is a nice play to be, a nice place to visit. Just watch your back if you dare to travel into South Central or East Los Angeles.
