      Nice views shouldn't only belong to the rich. In California, the beach belongs to everyone. You're just not allowed to camp there. But believe it or not, you can look.

    I feel for the officers and the encampment people. The officer's didn't go into law enforcement to do this. Many of these encampments house mentally ill, economically broke, drug addiction, and just people that want to drop out of society. It never should have gone this far.

    I love Santa Monica. Lived there for about a year @ 1012 2nd St. 1973. Enjoyed visiting Palisades Park and the beach often. This video also reminds me of the book "Black Mass" about James Whitey Bulger of Boston infamy. He lived at 1012 3rd St. for several years and visited this park a lot while the FBI was searching around the world for him. Great book imo.

      If the person gets violent, then they have to be able to subdue them. Taser? Riots in CA. Gun? riots in CA. Too many cops? Now they're wasting money. There is no way to win. A few of them aren't cops also, outreach programs.
