Los Angeles is so terrible that residents are taking matters into their own hands

America has ceased to be a society trying to solve any systemic problems. Instead, it's a society where everyone is trying to systemically take from one another, usually the powerful from everyone else.

Guerilla action is really the only path forward. Build a parallel state because the actual state only serves corporate greed.

Painting a crosswalk is cheap and easy. A group of neighbors can paint an entire intersection in one morning for $100 or less. Getting the city of Los Angeles to paint a crosswalk, on the other hand, might take 14 years and the death of a 9-year-old boy.

Across L.A., neighbors are banding together to paint crosswalks to protest the city’s failure to protect people outside of cars.

ohh lets do geurilla bike lanes next!

The most asinine part of this is that the city is REMOVING the crosswalks people paint. As usual, the problem is at the top.
