The Recall For Mayor Garcetti Has Finally Started
2019-06-21
[KFIam640] It only took long enough, but Los Angeles residents are working together to recall none other than Mayor Eric Garcetti.

What's the reason?

Well the different possibilities are endless.

Specifically though, these group of residents are upset over the increase in the city's homeless population.

Why wouldn't they be though?

Just this month the news came out the homelessness has increased in Los Angeles by 16%.

The leader of this recall effort is Alexandra Datig and she needs nearly 315,000 registered Los Angeles voters to sign n her petition in order for the effort to be certified.

Datig has put together a website filled with news clip, audio bites and more highlighting the homeless crisis in the city. In detail, she goes over why she believes there's no option left rather than recalling Eric Garcetti.

You don't have to ask John and Ken how they feel about this. For years, they've wanted Mayor Yoga Pants out of office and this finally might the fight pushed in the right direction.

What did Garcetti think?

That his beloved Angelenos were going to continue to let their city be take over by the homeless? Think again, people are finally starting to fight back.
Check out the link for an audio interview of Datig by KFI's John and Ken, some rather disturbing pictures and a link to a YouTube video of a six-minute TV report on LA's Paradise Lost by Seattle's KOMO.

#6  Registered voters? In the state where just about anything goes when it comes to driver's licenses, voting, etc?

#4  When you surrendered powers to a judiciary which chose to ignore the hard lessons learned about public health and sanitation to flash their virtue in the name of 'social justice', this is what it all degenerates to. It's not free speech, it's not free and peaceful assembly.

#2  There is a simple solution to Los Angeles' homeless problem. Bus them to San Francisco (or Portland) and give them $100 a month as long as they stay there.
