Mayor V had a big announcement for Skid Row today. He announced plans to install 100 pedestrian light fixtures on the streets. The project is intended to reduce the number of sidewalk drug sales.

Personally, I always find it easier to make any type of business transaction with better lighting. Never count your paper in the dark.

KTLA reports that the mayor was interrupted by protesters demanding more housing for the homeless. What are they so angry about? At least they can now aim when they pee.
