Video of re-opening of bridge in LA

I've never visited LA and have no familiarity with the city or this bridge.

But what a bunch of animals taking over this city and others. I guess the LA "leadership" ordered cops to let them destroy the new $500M bridge, because they are no where in sight until an accident at ~15:30.

Born and raised in L.A. Don't live too far from there now. Was thinking of visiting that bridge. Now I think I'll pass. There's a reason I moved away. F**king a$$holes.

BTW, saw this on the news earlier.

I live on the Arts District side of this bridge.

The issue with LA (and the IE) is there are too many low life trash people who feel emboldened in behaving like this as the local political climate hardly dissuades such behavior. There's something about the culture of LA that tends to a yolo/idgaf mentality.

These dudes don't care that they are ruining a beautiful new bridge. 99% of them are uneducated and will work minimum wage jobs their whole lives. They pick up old Challengers and Infinitis for cheap and do these antics as it's the only semblance of power/celebrity they'll ever have.

I'll hopefully end up in the OC once I look to settle down. Would never raise a family in LA.

Street takeovers like this have been a big problem here lately. They have always been around but recently it's been almost daily with constant issues. A lot of cities are tying to pass legislation for stiffer penalties.

OK, Florida has some crazy drivers and some crazy individuals, I'll give you that. But try an organized takeover of a public roadway or bridge, just to fuck around, do donuts and burnouts. See how long that lasts. I guarantee you it wouldn't.

Walking the concrete arches might be cool, but I'm not going to spray my name all over the top if I do.

If you hear a crazy story there's a 99.9% chance it happened in Florida. (Not really but you get it... I hope.) Radio stations across the country play games called, "Fake or Florida". Your state is a meme for the sheer amount of crazy it contains so it's funny that you would criticize another state for its behavior.

You've never heard the Florida Man saying? Or you just revert to insults when you don't understand something?

Even after only living in Florida for less than 4 years, I am well familiar with it and in fact since before we moved here.

But has what to do with public chaos on a bridge in LA?

It was simply a funny reply playing on the post about Florida by infinitekidM2C

Relax.

LA is a lawless liberal hell hole and the natives who grew up there in the 70's and 80's and of course before that, know it. I truly hope it can return to its former glory one day and I think it will. I loved LA even in the 90's, now most of my friends who grew up there have their sites ironically set on Florida.

It was fun when I was a kid, growing up there in the 60s and 70s, but I didn't know any better. I was a kid, and a trouble-making one at that.

Was good times then but would never want to raise my family there.

This isn't about LA....or Milwaukee (which is where Kia boys are from)....it's about most of today's youth no matter where they live. You younger people are fucked. It's just going to get worse.....
