City of L.A. "Selling" Four Ambulances to Mexico for $1 Each -- And Selling Out

City of L.A. "Selling" Four Ambulances to Mexico for Four Dollars -- And Selling Out By Walter Moore, Candidate for Mayor of Los Angeles, WalterMooreForMayor.com Mayor Villaraigosa and the City Council are supposedly too busy even to put Jamiel's Law on their agenda, or to otherwise show the least bit of respect to the Shaw Family, whose son was murdered by an illegal alien gang banger. How many murders and other crimes could Jamiel's Law prevent? Well, U.S. Senator Diane Feinstein estimates that 80% of the 18th Street Gang members in California are illegal aliens from Mexico and Central America. But Villaraigosa and the City Council haven't had time yet to consider denying "sanctuary city" status to these violent sociopaths who control our streets and kill our children. So what are our "leaders" doing instead? Villaraigosa is "on vacation," a condition which is, in his case, indistinguishable from not being on vacation. The City Council, meanwhile, has raised our trash fees, put yet another proposed tax hike on the ballot to fund more "Big Weasel" programs, banned the construction of new fast-food restaurants in one part of town, and is working feverishly to "protect" Britney from paparazzi, without whom, she would not exist. Today, Council Members Reyes, Garcetti and Huizar focused the City Council on another issue of vital concern to the entire populace: a labor dispute at a car wash. Apparently some of the witnesses from whom the City Council heard today needed interpreters since, you know, the City Council Members don't all speak Spanish yet. And tonight a supporter sent me yet another glaring and offensive example of our Vichy California government in action: a Report of the Chief Legislative Analyst to the City Council's Budget and Finance Committee, dated July 29, 2008. The report recommended adoption of a motion, made by Council Members Huizar and Alarcon, to authorize "the below market value sale of four ambulances to the municipality of Tlaltenago, Zacates, Mexcio." You read it right: They want to sell four of our ambulances, below market price, to a city in Mexico. Makes sense. After all, no one in L.A. needs an ambulance any more. There's no violence and no accidents any more. And they just licked that nasty fast-food crisis, so you can kiss heart attacks good-bye, too. Plus, what are the odds that some freak event like, say, an earthquake would ever hit here and hurt someone? Nil. Hey, guess how far "below market" the "sale" price will be? Would you believe four dollars for four ambulances? It's true. The people who brought you the one-dollar-a-year lease of your city buildings to "Aztecs Rising" -- that's a real name, by the way -- now bring you the one-dollar-ambulance deal, as long as the "buyer" is from Mexico. This isn't funny any more. It's obscene. The Shaws' son was murdered by an illegal alien gang banger. Then the Bologna Family in San Francisco lost three family members the same way. Who knows how many families lose loved ones each month due to preventable murders -- murders that could be avoided if we stopped giving sanctuary to gang members? Does ANYBODY give a damn about this City any more? Anyone? I ask, because I hear a lot of people complain, but I don't see a lot of people contributing to my campaign, sending for bumper stickers, and getting on the waiting list for yard signs. It's taken me over a year to raise $115,000. It probably took Villaraigosa about 10 minutes to raise that much at a cocktail party fund-raiser in Chicago hosted by the developers whose projects he subsidizes with your tax dollars. The next time someone complains about Villaraigosa and City Hall, stop them, and ask one simple question: What are YOU doing about it? Then slap him around -- metaphorically speaking -- until you see him write a check to the Committee to Elect Walter Moore. Whining doesn't cut it any more. Nor is it worth our time to keep asking these corrupt politicians, pretty please, to do the right thing. We don't need to persuade them. We need to REPLACE them. If you have not contributed already, do so right now. You can do it online. And for Heaven's sake, spread the word. Get involved, get your friends involved, but take action. We don't have to put up with these continual, obscene abuse of power. This is literally life and death. If you think that's hyperbole, just imagine for a moment that you become the next Anita Shaw, Jamiel Shaw, Sr. or Danielle Bologna. Every day Villaraigosa and the City Council stay in office is another day that they are playing a city-wide game of Russian Roulette, where the gun is pointed at you and your loved ones.
