The Japanese are pissing me off, they are trying to buy US Steel and they are using strong arm tactics threatening to close factories in Pennsylvania if the sale to Nippon Steel does not happen; FUCK THEM! Go back to Japan Mother Fuckers. US Steel should not be for sale, and certainly not to the Japanese, nor any foreign country.

I remember Pearl Harbor, after we suffered from the Great Depression then we had to enter World War II because of Japan and Germany.

Even the fucking Russians were on our side in World War II.

We need to stop selling our companies to foreign companies. And we need to stop selling our Movie Studios to Japan, etc. We can study and train and we can make our own movies right here in Hollywood without any help from the fucking Japanese.

But, the San Miguel Corporation from the Philippines is a good Christian company and I welcomed them to come do Business in the USA and in Hollywood.

Salute,

Tony V.

Simple solutions, US govt buys US Steel...
Commie.

You would've sold off my power grid too, same as the no-idea politicians did, now the govt has no control over it.
The govt must control certain things...of national interest.
My federal govt should've been in control of all the nation's ports...written down in law.
It thought it was, well seems nobody thought about it until the Northern Territory govt "sold off" the port of Darwin to China (99 yr lease).

QANTAS should've been bought by my federal govt long ago, then all the not so good things that have happened with it would not have happened.

In Anaheim we own our own Electric Company, and we even sell Electricity to Disneyland, and the money from the profits goes into a General Fund to be used however we want, we built a new Train Station, etc, and we help the homeless, etc.

Also, Disney is a wonderful company which does good things to help the people of Anaheim, Disney is altruistic and they sent representatives to Anaheim City Hall and Disney asked "What can we do to help the people of Anaheim?" Disney is wonderful, and Disney is investing $2 Billion here in Anaheim. I told a homeless man that "Help is on the way." And Anaheim can have hostels like in Rome, Italy, for $15 per night for a bed and a shower, etc.

About 25 years ago then outside Electricity Generators ripped off California and charged us super high prices, so now we all own our own power companies. We the people of Anaheim own our own Electric Company.

Our Ports here in California are very busy, and new ports in Mexico are being built, etc. We do lots of trade with China but we own our own ports.

Petro in Colombia is working to bring down the price of freight trucking in order to bring down prices for consumers, and to be more efficient, and to assist as they transform over to clean energy transportation, and electric trains, etc.

And my advice to the cops on the Blvds is to get out of their cars and Walk the beat like the cops did in the old days, they can walk the beat on Anaheim Blvd on Sunday Nights while the Cruisers are Cruising , etc. And like at the Universal City Walk, the cops walk around, and they have undercover cops, etc, and cameras, etc, Universal has great security. Also of note is that Anaheim has Pearson Park and the Amphitheatre there, etc, for the Cruisers on Sunday Nights, etc.

Salute,

Shouldn't parents keep assault rifles out of the hands of juveniles? Mr. Gray should go to jail for a century?

Bambu, California has been going down too, the Mexicans and refugees are saving us by slaving as essential workers and farm Workers, etc, we have 400,000 Farm Workers here in California.

California and New York are very close, and we share the Entertainment Industry and much of the money that built the West came from New York, and New York has Broadway, and the NYSE, and the Bank of New York, etc. We have a lot of people here in California from New York.

California is also close with Florida, and we shared the Space Shuttle Program, we built the Space Shuttles in Lancaster, California, and then we launched them into space from Cape Canaveral, Florida. And also Miami loves Hollywood, California.

California and Australia can be close, and we can help each other, we can see things that the other might not see, etc. And we can share the Beach Life with Surfing, etc, and Music, Movies, Television Shows, Fashion, Defense, Space, Transportation, etc, and the Culinary Arts and Food, etc, and Wine, etc. And we can work together to cater to China to send nice treats to China such as Oranges and Avocados and Wine, and Beef, and Pork, and Duck, etc. And we can Entertain the people of China, etc. And the Chinese love Hollywood, California, etc.

We have 50,000 people from Australia who are living here in Los Angeles, so that is cool, we can help each other.

And always remember Battle Mountain, Nevada, it is the best deal on land in the USA, and the schools are good, and there are jobs at the casinos and at the Gold Mines, etc.

Salute,

Tony V.

Alleged 14 yr old shooter was in class at the school.
Reportedly, he left the classroom.
When he returned to the room he knocked on the locked door.
Student who went to let him back in saw the gun and refused him entry.
Alleged shooter then went to the classroom next door and killed there.

Reportedly, there was a phone call to the school earlier that day threatening shootings at 4 schools, the school where the deaths occurred being the first one mentioned.
You'd have to wonder why the alleged shooter wasn't immediately put under 24 hr "armed and ready to fire at a moment's notice" close surveillance.
...or grabbed and removed from the school system altogether...given his previous conduct and cop questioning the year before.
Cops said after the shootings that he was on their radar.
Fine, but nobody actually did anything absolute to prevent the mass shootings/deaths at that school.

Christina Pascucci

Norm of Langers deli, an LA institution that has been around 77 years, says he is giving Los Angeles leaders one more week before he shuts his restaurant down. The crime, drugs, homelessness, and filth around his building have made it unbearable for customers and hurt business.

Until we start treating the root cause rather than the symptom, we will see a lot more of this.

One long term solution, in my eyes, is reforming the foster care system. We fail our kids. 50% of the homeless and 75% of the incarcerated spent time in foster care, according to the CA Senate Office of research. Why is this not priority to support these resilient children and give them the resources they deserve!?

Any lawmaker willing to take this on, let us work together. I have an outline of reforms based on the work I have done in this space for the past decade. They deserve better.

----------------------------------

Antonio Villaraigosa is running for Governor of California, and he can help the Foster Children, and the Homeless, and he loves the Farm Workers, and the Growers, etc, he was a good Mayor of Los Angeles and he might be a great Governor.

We have places in Orange County which help all people, including helping the Foster Youth, etc; we have the Mental Health Association in Santa Ana which helps all people, and we have a Wellness Center in Orange that helps all people. We need to build more MHAs and more Wellness Centers, as we work to also help the Foster Youth, etc. And I believe that we should give a free college education to all Foster Youth.

McDonald's and the Ronald McDonald House can work together with Cancer Hospitals to help the Cancer Survivors open their own McDonald's restaurant so that they can have money coming in and financial independence, etc, they can support a whole family with a McDonald's restaurant. A restaurant is a good hands on business that can keep their minds on better things than Cancer, etc, and they will have an income. McDonald's is also global now, so they can help people in Italy, and in France, etc. And they can work together with the Small Business Administration in the USA, etc.

A friend from Quartz Hill Elementary School from when I was a kid in 6th Grade, her son was just killed in an automobile accident by a drunk driver, and the District Attorney has not filed charges against the criminal yet, and my friend wants Justice. So, I sent her to Christina Pascucci, maybe Christina can help her. So sad.

The Bars should own Limousines to drive their customers home, etc.

I hate it when people drink and drive.

My friend contacted Mothers Against Drunk Drivers, hopefully they can help her.

So sad.

Salute,

Yes, my suburban, regional, rural clubs, large and small have free "courtesy buses" to deliver home patrons who live in their local areas.
Saves having tired, been drinking, patrons being on the roads.
