      Is this the reason all the homeless you've been so nice to & respectful to listening to their stories supporting their struggles were mad about? They were kicking them out so blame everyone else for it! While their createing crime & throwing garbage every where? You know when i was a kid my mom who grew up during the depresion taught me at a young age what her father taught her & he died when my mom was young! Leaveing my grandmother to raise 5 kid's on her own during all this! But, he taught my mom & her me it's not a sin to be poor but it is a sin to be dirty as soap is cheap! But, it's great to see that life & happiness is returning! You were good to those people showing their side of the story even though they were destroying your business & many others! Well someone forgot to tell them you get respect when you give respect! 💖💖💖💖💖💖 that's GV polight happy & respectful! Be that way to him! 💖💖💖💖💖💖

      That can happen to you tomorrow, and where are you going? They don’t want them in the Parks in the Restaurants they don’t want them anywhere. Where are they suppose to go.

      Don’t get it twisted. Only people visiting Venice are the dick heads who wouldn’t wear a mask all year and now think everything can go back to normal because some are vaccinated but the tourist visiting probably are not.
      Now they are giving store employees an even harder time about wearing masks because “ the cdc said you don’t have too” .
      There is no reason to visit California this year.
      Especially since LA is pushing around the homeless just to get the tourist back.

    As a Venice local that bailed and made his way to Oregon, it makes me realize I did the right thing.
    I left, I live, lost count of all the attempts on my life. One event I do remember was the manager of the Morrison apartments tried to sucker me into the building "for a free shower" and next day a guy known as "Turtle" was found dead behind the building. As I understood it, his neck was snapped and he was thrown from the third floor fire escape.
    That would have been me, but, I knew better.
    Oregon is a great place, deer in the yard, huge maple trees, open carry, now I can defend myself against all comers. I own my home, don't have to take showers in Marina Del Rey, I had a key, thank God.
    We locals called ourselves "Trolls", it has a new meaning now, but back then we were trolls, in the true sense.
    Have fun, you can have the place, I am not coming back, not now, not ever.

I am sure your positive vids opened a few influencial minds and the rest is history so "good on you bro". This is the future and you are reality TV for real and way better than normal, boring, acting TV. You are a great actor, director and human being.

    That swarm is the beginning of a new hive! Typically when a hive gets too big half will split off to go start their own hive! They're also very docile during this time!
    ****Please please please reach out to a local beekeeper and let them know where you saw the swarm! Most will be more than happy to go collect them and give them a new home for free! We got to try to save our Honey Bees! We need them for pollenation and they're starting to go extinct!
