Since HLA became law, the city has been scrambling to find ways to not follow HLA.<br/>&gt; <br/>&gt; Some of the city’s loophole strategies are legal. Some appear not to be. All of them are supporting the city’s deadly car-centric status quo and undermining nascent efforts toward a balanced multimodal transportation system.<br/>&gt; <br/>&gt; In the last month or so, the city appears to have decided that the way it can get around HLA – and around disability access laws – is to only repave streets without sidewalks.<br/>&gt; <br/>&gt; This practice is making the city less equitable, because streets without sidewalks are nearly all in relatively well-off neighborhoods. City repaving is currently focused on many hillside areas including Bel Air, Holmby Hills, Mount Washington, Pacific Palisades, and Studio City. The city is also resurfacing sidewalk-less streets in other car-centric suburban neighborhoods including Northridge, Toluca Woods, Valley Village, Valley Glen, and Woodland Hills. 2026-06-05T14:16:07Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs0zrxk3sfrs2whnxf0w9w2595d3l46unspu59j3tj67l9qxl6c2pszyrwft5g6fu5s2jk9xfrpj3ymnwyprtdz9wktgpwvfelp8lw4r04fq3harwq President Donald Trump says he wants the gas tax to be temporarily suspended as [empire continues its terrorism campaign against Iran] into its 11th week and keeps oil prices elevated.<br/><br/>He told CBS News Monday morning he wants the tax suspended &#34;for a period of time&#34; and would want it reintroduced &#34;when gas goes down.&#34;<br/><br/>Asked by reporters in the Oval Office later in the day how long the gas tax would be suspended, the president responded, &#34;&#39;Til it&#39;s appropriate.&#34;<br/><br/>Suspending the gas tax would require an act of Congress.

According to University of Utah law professor Shima Baughman&#39;s research, just 11% of significant crimes end in an arrest and 2% in a conviction. A significant proportion of serious crimes usually remain unsolved.<br/><br/>What are police doing instead? Most cops spend between 46% and 81% of their time on “unassigned” duties, such as eating lunch or filling out paperwork. And when they’re on patrol, cops playing with their phones has become such a problem that even Mayor Eric Adams, a former cop himself, has expressed his “frustration.” Two weeks after the subway shooting, Adams asked New Yorkers to send him photos of officers using their phones while on duty. “We are going to start taking very aggressive actions to make sure police are patrolling our subway system and not patrolling their iPhone,” the mayor warned. 2026-03-08T03:32:39Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs2mcdkegccm9mdxq07rnyntze93a7dvcrlqv3xpt694knh3ts7qxczyrwft5g6fu5s2jk9xfrpj3ymnwyprtdz9wktgpwvfelp8lw4r04fqhn28ma Source: <a href="https://thisisnthappiness.com/post/807567249204461568/please-clap-brecht-vandenbroucke">https://thisisnthappiness.com/post/807567249204461568/please-clap-brecht-vandenbroucke</a><br/> <img src="https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/pictrs/image/003c6b79-ebb1-4c6f-87d7-73070ec13f8b.webp"> <br/> 2026-02-05T01:45:42Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsdz6vt28nw66pn7gw2lfsfcu88475flas5vpdtcntcz88kuedqk5szyrwft5g6fu5s2jk9xfrpj3ymnwyprtdz9wktgpwvfelp8lw4r04fql6smmd &#34;Let&#39;s see, baseball, rode a bike - that could be me, except for the part where I go out and do something incredibly stupid.

Neighboring states would have to make land available to that superpower to resettle the displaced peoples. The refugees would “have their own administration in this territory” but they would “not acquire … citizenship” since any “sense of responsibility towards the world” would forbid making “the gift of a sovereign state” to a people “which has had no independent state for thousands of years.”<br/><br/>No, the plan described in brief here is not President Donald Trump’s Gaza plan, proposing a United States takeover of Gaza and mass relocation of its Palestinian population. It is the so-called “Madagascar Plan,” devised by Nazi Germany in 1940 to “resettle” European Jews.<br/><br/>That plan was the Third Reich’s final major proposal for removing the Jews from the Greater Germanic Reich Adolf Hitler envisioned in Mein Kampf prior to the “Final Solution” — the indiscriminate shootings of Jewish men, women, and children on the Eastern Front, leading to mass killings in death camps and gas chambers in late 1941. In that history lies a warning: Plans for the mass relocation of a population seen as troublesome or dangerous can rapidly devolve into the loss of sovereignty, of human and civil rights, and, eventually, ethnic cleansing. 2025-02-16T16:50:50Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsfxrl24nuxdv4xkvlfpuac247zdzkqdy2uttk5dyzhqwp60yguygczyrwft5g6fu5s2jk9xfrpj3ymnwyprtdz9wktgpwvfelp8lw4r04fqj5jmen In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqysktheuxrs8nk906cjlshy5fe4a7kx54ppsz0hhp2nk79g4mw5gvt2muw'>nevent1q…2muw</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>![]( <img src="https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/pictrs/image/98785b8e-962f-4323-9550-c462788314bd.webp"> ) 2025-02-12T17:00:26Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsz70afr5v39cpexcxslv27exyr0vgxlzwg0mmyudkycdw5cx5gmcszyrwft5g6fu5s2jk9xfrpj3ymnwyprtdz9wktgpwvfelp8lw4r04fqlfwnn8 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsqwwm794ewltgfuj7y796wjffr97p0hfy6q026ptt6zmcjtkfygxcaa4z2k'>nevent1q…4z2k</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>&gt; genocide is about to happen.<br/><br/>lmao libs waking up after over a year... acting like they suddenly give a shit about an ongoing genocide. <br/><br/>This is why y&#39;all keep losing.
