Some thoughts: you've probably been to the same mall many dozens, if not hundreds of times. Next time you go, check out some of those long corridors that lead to bathrooms/maintenance rooms/loading docks.
-Do the doors open or are they locked?
-Will the alarm sound?
-Who the F cares, I'm being shot at?
If a similar attack happens, it will sound like D Day. It won't go "pop.....pop,pop......pop." It will go "(insert sound of D Day here) "
-You will freeze. Get over it. Embrace the part of your mind that is quietly saying "This shit is real." Reject the LOUDER voice that says "It's a TV shoot. This is Glendale."

Bryan Suits on what to do during an "Active shooter" event.
Last month, in response to the Westgate Shopping Center attack in Nairobi, Kenya, KFI AM640's Bryan Suits posted some advise on what to do if you find yourself stuck in your local Los Angeles mall when terrorists attempt to take it over. In light of this week's shooting at LAX I decided to re-post what Bryan originally had written on his "Dark Secret Place" Facebook profile as it is sound advise for us "high valve soft targets".

LA Times: Town criers in the age of Twitter
A growing group of L.A.-area residents share a passion for listening to police scanners and spreading that news online, in real time, via Twitter. 'It's like theater,' one says.

Kings win Stanley Cup!
KINGS WIN!
Congrats to the Los Angeles kings for winning their first Stanley Cup! In related news LAPD is on city wide tactical alert, but for now it sounds like people outside Staples Center are behaving themselves. We'll see if anything happens after the sun goes down.

Report on LAPD 12 hour system failure
A report from the General Services Department regarding the April 3rd power failure of LAPD's radio system on Mt. Lee is out.
http://clkrep.lacity.org/onlinedocs/2012/12-0506_misc_5-23-12.pdf
However this doesn't go into why the supply of power from the "Uninterrupted Power Supply" was suddenly interrupted, during a routine test, other then the manufacturer (Emerson Network Power) saying the power supplies need to be properly maintained.

"Occupy" punk assaults LAPD officer
I nominate this guy for Mother ƒµ©k∑® of the Month!
Tuesday, May 1st at the down town May Day occupy/commie/labor/union/anarchist rally this ass-hat decides to assault a female officer at 4th and Hill by sucker-punching her with a snare drum.
Fortunately someone with a conscience was recording and posted the video of the attack on YouTube. If anyone knows who this piece of garbage is you can anonymously drop a dime on his ass by calling the LAPD tip line at 800-222-TIPS (8477)
LA Riots: Thin Veneer of Civialization
Chuck Devote recounts the 92 LA Riots
"As soon as we stepped onto Crenshaw, the sergeant locked and loaded. Instantly, I heard the other troops do the same. I stopped and turned around. “Take the rounds out of your chambers,” I said, “This is America, not Lebanon."

Villar knows at least he's not to blame for LAPD failure.
Mayor Villaraigosa says he's not sure what caused the 12 hour blackout of the LAPD radio system on Mt. Lee last Tuesday.


“We are in the process of reviewing that issue,” said Villaraigosa. “I did meet last week, my staff has had a couple of meetings, we’re trying to get to the bottom of what happened.”
The mayor, knot sure if the outage was due to hardware or personnel failure, says he will get to the bottom of it as soon as he is finished filling his one million potholes.

Forbes calles LA-RICS "Next Solyndra"
Here is a story that the mainstream media has largely ignored; a tale of cronyism, special interests, law-breaking, bureaucratic delays, union complaints, last-minute changes in the law solely designed so that Los Angeles could keep federal grant money, panicked spending of federal money, and ultimately more than $800 million of your tax dollars.
Like all tragedies, it holds a powerful lesson: massive Keynesian spending programs often fail to create jobs or grow the economy, but insider “experts” rarely fail to get their piece of the action.
Our story begins with a lofty and laudable goal. In bureaucratic argot, it is known as “interoperability.”

Climb a tower > get naked > eat McDonalds
McDonald's hamburgers lure naked man off downtown tower
Police were able to lure a naked man who spent hours atop a downtown radio tower with McDonald's hamburgers.
The man climbed to the top of the tower Wednesday night. At one point, police sources said, he asked for hamburgers from McDonald's. Officials complied, and he agreed to come down after eating his meal.
