I remember being on a walk in the San Gabriel Valley (SGV) area of #Los_Angeles County in #SoCal when helicopters sprayed malathion laced bait to knock down a Mediterranean Fruit Fly (medfly) infestation.
I don't know of any ill effects, but I did get sprayed that night.

#NOAA / #NWS issuing #fire_weather alert (watch) for portions of !SoCal's #San_Bernardino and #Riverside and #San_Diego Counties, as "strong gusty winds and low humidity" are expected in mountains and valleys. Includes some #Low_Desert areas, but no #High_Desert areas. Yucaipa, home to two large fires this Summer, is included in the danger area.
The alert does not cover #Orange or #Los_Angeles counties, but that may be a function of which office issued the bulletin.
If you're in Southern California, please be careful not to do things which could cause another catastrophic fire. There was a town in NorCal (Paradise) that no one had ever heard of until nearly the entire town burned down and many residents were killed in a fire a couple of years ago. We don't want other municipalities to relive their experience.

#Los_Angeles County oversight commission asks Sheriff Alex Villanueva to resign https://www.courthousenews.com/police-watchdog-group-demands-la-county-sheriff-resign/
!SoCal #LASD
I think I recall him trying to release the names of "problem deputies" and getting blocked at every turn. Perhaps he decided to get along with entrenched corrupt and abusive deputies instead of fighting and losing.
Is #SoCal unusual in having police gangs? I've read in the past about gangfights between LASD gangs and #LAPD gangs.

Took a trip to SGV in #SoCal to meet one of my brothers. Smoke was thick, but area isn't orange colored. https://abc7.com/weather/socal-air-remains-thick-with-smoke-from-raging-wildfires/6420436/ [abc7 com]
Locally, there is a thin layer of smoke against the mountains, but winds continue to push most of the smoke into the #Los_Angeles area.

#Los_Angeles police with county sheriff deputies assisting just concluded a pursuit on PCH (Pacific Coast Highway, #SR-1) near a brushfire. It sounds like guy may have had medical issue and sideswiped a few cars. Paramedics and ambulance have been called.

Now includes most of #San_Diego County and part of #San_Bernardino County. High temperatures, low humidities, strong gusty winds. The alert does not mention #Orange or #Los_Angeles Counties, but it is unlikely that they are not also affected. #SoCal coastal slopes and mountain foothills could be most affected, along with southern SDCounty and San Gorgonio Pass.

South Los Angeles. I think part of that is in #Los_Angeles city limits (and formerly known as “South Central”). Obviously, this area is not, since it is patrolled by the county Sheriff’s Department (LASD).
This is all I know, so I’m not making a judgement.

Hearing rumors that #Los_Angeles County Sheriff deputies shot and killed a suspect today. No further details yet. !SoCal

!SoCal #Los_Angeles County reports over 2,000 new #COVID-19 cases and 48 deaths on 2020-06-20 https://nu.federati.net/url/270852 [www dailybulletin com]
Not saying whether these new #2019-nCoV cases are related to protests, riots, and looting over the last few weeks. The #coronavirus #SARS-CoV-2 isn’t responsible when people’s actions spread the virus and the disease it causes after they already know how to limit its spread.

Statues: I have been to Mississippi and seen Confederate monuments "Dedicated to the men who fought for our freedom" on courthouse lawns. So, no, leaving particularly egregious statues in places of honor is not acceptable. Yet, those people and their acts are part of our history, and I do not want us to forget them.
.
I don't have a full solution, but moving some statues to museums, and putting statues of less horrid people and events up next to others is a better way forward than either leaving all the statues in place or toppling and beheading them.
.
While most of the US is distracted by statues, two Black men were found hanging in #SoCal. One on 2020-05-31 near the Victorville library, and one 2020-06-10 near the Palmdale city hall. In both cases, Sheriff's deputies quickly said "suicide" ... but in #Los_Angeles County, a member of the Board of Supervisors has asked the California Attorney General to investigate. As far as I know, #San_Bernardino County has not asked for a light to be shined on their own potential lynching.

It's already too expensive 100 miles away from #Los_Angeles. Don't start "moving to the exburbs" now. Stay where you are or move to Montana. #MT #SoCal #real_estate
