Having the right people in charge is key to a well-run city. Today, we have the opposite. The city is under control of the gangs and criminals, in tacit partnership with the LAPD. Under direct assault, call after call after call by numerous Alta Lofts residents go unanswered, ignored, neglected or downplayed.

Los Angeles Police Sergeant Cruz summed up LAPD policy, “Unless someone is injured, there is nothing we can do.” Another officer comments after repeated harassment, violent attacks and damage done to a residential condo unit door at Alta lofts by a female transient and her male accomplice at Alta lofts. “We need to protect her,” says another officer. Neither officer ever mentions any notion of protecting the public, the innocent victims — the residents of Alta Lofts. Cops have apparently been ordered by politicians to focus on protecting assailants. If the police show up after an emergency call in Central Los Angeles, it often takes about 45 minutes to an hour or more. In other major cities, the response time is closer to 5 minutes. Emergency calls in Los Angeles often take 10 to 20 minutes or longer to initiate after waiting for busy signals, recordings, multiple transfers. If and when they arrive, police now spend the majority of the time observing and tending to the needs of the attackers, while minimizing or refusing to listen to the complaints of the victims, downplaying the complaints, saying “maybe the attack never happened,” eyes blind to property damage.

If the city of Los Angeles and its police really wanted to protect and serve this lady, she would be getting the special shelter and mental help that is appropriate for a violent mentally ill person who insists that she owns Alta Lofts, punches residents repeatedly in the head, demands money and damages Alta property.

Now more than ever, the culture of Los Angeles discourages requests for police assistance, encourages transient and homeless encampment, provides less protection for everyone, with less real law enforcement. When the police demand blood, they get it: In the first 60 days of 2021, Los Angeles Police Department have fielded 88% more reports of shots fired than the same time period in 2020. Gunshot crime reports in L.A. are up 141% compared to last year, and homicides up 39%, according to Crosstown USC Annenberg. Neighborhoods that were once relatively safe are racked with fear amid skyrocketing crime and violence. Many parts of L.A. today resemble third world countries overrun by the criminally insane.

Unsuspecting women and children shopping across the street at the Goodwill store stumble into unexpected danger by the maniacal menace with metal pipe-wielding outbursts. When asked about the lack of police response following recent attacks at Alta, LAPD Senior TSR Feng replied that police cannot respond to every call because there are “not enough officers.” The most tragic part of this story is that that city is rife with similar and worse crimes affecting countless taxpaying citizens of our teetering city.

It’s time for a change. L.A. will rebound after this devastating trend reverses.

Update: The aggressor was eventually arrested after she blocked traffic for several hours, then threw something at police officers.
