An Academy Awards production worker was reportedly mugged while setting up this year's ceremony at Union Station in Los Angeles. The Oscars usually take place at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood, but have been relocated to the train station, which is located in the city's dangerous Downtown area, close to tent cities set up by the homeless.(Snip) Union Station is used by hundreds of homeless people in the city, some of whom say they have been 'forced out' of the area by city officials so they don't interfere with the glamor of the star-studded evening. One homeless person told Fox 11 that unidentified officials

Aren't the "stars" supposed to be out there feeding the homeless, instead of booting them out?
Don't answer that.

Twenty years ago, we used to get on Metrolink in Riverside and go to L.A. to Olvera St. on occasions. It was an easy walk from Union Station. A very enjoyable trip. Now? Because of the bums (I refuse to call them homeless), we go somewhere else.

So because of the Oscars the liberals actually pushed out the vagrants.
Perhaps we could declare the Oscars to be located everywhere.

#5, I presume you realize you’re now on the permanent “No-Fly List” and will never pass a background check to buy ammunition and, oh yes, will soon be facing a hearing as to whether you should own that set of Ginzu steak knives you’ve got in your kitchen. And BTW, very entertaining! Thanks for the laugh.

One of the major disappointments last night (saw the segment but didn't bother to watch the show itself) was Regina King, who started out on tv's "Southland" playing a L.A. cop, going on about how she would have done an Auntie Maxine rebuttal if the verdict in Minneapolis had turned out differently. She went from being someone I admired (ditto Bette Midler) to just another politicizing actress living in a bubble and with her own security guards. Tyler Perry was one of the few redeeming highlights, speaking understanding and decency AND still keeping his studio in Atlanta.........Perry is so big he doesn't have to care about the politics or virtue signaling, and, unlike the Corporate giants, probably actually READ the voting rights legislation and used his brain. Shame on Regina King.... as toMidler, she just sold HER 3 floor penthouse condo in NYC0 for $50 million. One of the folks, eh Bette.

Finally, Biden & Harris are talking about spending still MORE of our $ in the corrupt Triangle countries to stop the chaos at the border....who are they kidding? The border WAS fixed under Trump, via the Wall and stay in Mexico till processed etc. Meanwhile, new have homeless vets living in squalor own the streets of L.A. and other spots, and what is done for them? What is being done for the American middle class, minorities, etc? Does this administration actually think we don't SEE what is happening under Senile Joe with his FDR fixation.......he will certainly go down in history, but for all the wrong reasons. Some people are beginning to catch on, but others never will...they refuse, and I am sure have explanations as to why the Homeless must be temporarily shifted on Oscar night.
