    Or if they get the wrong address.

    Or if they don’t like your skin color.

    Or if they don’t like your tone.

    Or if they just generally feel like it while their body cams are “malfunctioning”.

  • Have you tried taking it anywhere that requires a transfer? Last time I saw, all transfers required going to Union Station. Doesn’t matter if that is the opposite direction of where you want to go. Union Station is (or was) the only option if you were not traveling in a straight line.

    All of my knowledge on Los Angeles public transit is about 15 years old. I really do hope that they have improved since then.

    I am also just talking about just the Metro rail system. I never attempted any other public transit options in LA.

    The ban also forbids marketers from exaggerating their own influence by, for example, paying for bots to inflate their follower count.

    I wonder if “followers” includes users and how that will impact Twitter, Reddit, Facebooky, Instagram, TikTok, etc who use stats like active users to drive ad sales.
