  1. I was born and raised in LA second gen and yeah there are places you better be aware LAX is in a shitty area I used to go to the Forum in Inglewood to watch Lakers, Kings games and was praying to and from my car wouldn’t break down really bad surroundings he’s lucky he was just robbed sad.

  2. If they were “truly hungry” how could they afford gas to follow you 40 miles. Maybe they were just bad people that know they will not face any serious repercussions for robbing you. Jimmy – this is what happens with a Soros DA and a gov”t controlled by the woke.
