Los Angeles

Definitely right on all that. That's why I'm keeping my expectations extremely low on this.

Key question: Did wealthy liberal donors back McDonnell or AV? My GUESS is they backed the incumbent

Clearly. I could look for the ref but I think McD spent 8x the money.

and AV's "base" was his fellow Latinos. They're the ones he's beholden to.

Clearly. I could find the ref, but anyway, they estimated he got 80% of the Latinx vote. He has blue eyes, he's half Polish, but he's got a vowel at the end of his name and that's who he's beholden to. The major issue that got him to victory was kicking ICE out of jails. And they do not see any reason for gringos to be packing in Los Angeles. And he is clearly promoting people who are not prepared, just because they're non-white. Welcome to the new California.

I get the impression you're an insider to the department. I'm definitely not, but when a news article says he's promoting people skipping four levels, and that he has never held a high-profile position before... well, clearly he's promoting people who aren't ready. Maybe we'll get lucky and everything will be great.

Sure. Whats the worst that could happen?

I would say that the worst thing that could happen is:



and:



but that's all already happened so I don't know how to answer your question.

More news from the new Sheriff:

This sheriff is shaking things up. What, if anything, this means for CCW, I have no idea.

Some things have changed, literally, overnight.

Welcome to third world Los Angeles where people get massive promotions to critical roles because of their skin color. Makes sense to me.

I emailed him and his team when he was running the response I got was essentially he would follow state laws on issueing not additional requirements like McDonnell.this is from the email, “ Sorry for the delay, here is my position. I will issue based on a showing of good cause, NOT an impossible standard as the one the incumbent is using. Occupation, business situation, victim of stalking, criminal threats, and related issues are examples where CCWs will be granted assuming all other legal requirements are met.

Hope this helps,”

If anyone would like me to forward the original email dm me

This says he's not dark red.

Occupation, business situation, victim of stalking, criminal threats, and related issues are examples where CCWs will be granted assuming all other legal requirements are met.

This says he's light red or perhaps yellow. We'll have to wait for people to apply, get issued or denied and post re. their experience before determining which one.

Light green would be where he'll issue for protection against risks that you voluntarily face (e.g., hiking, backpacking, motorcycling in wilderness, far away from rapid LE response, spotty cell coverage, etc.).

Since the LASD website still shows McDonnell, it's CCW info also hasn't been updated. Once it shows Villanueva as sheriff, we'll look to see if the CCW info has also be revised, and if so, check it to ensure it too supports "light red" and to see if it indicates yellow or better.

Whoever notices first that LASD website no longer shows McDonnell, but rather shows Villanueva as sheriff, please post that in this thread ASAP. Thx!

Still old McDonnell info & policies at those 4 linked webpages....

Guess I'll try to check them every weekend to see if/when they get revised/replaced/updated.

Hell, even going Yellow would be a major change for LAC!
