I know it’s not abnormal for them to do training exercises around DTLA but they always show up on flight radar 24. Just watched 4 ospreys fly right over DTLA along with two helicopters before them and none of them are showing up on flight radar 24. Anyone have any insight?

I don’t know how to really go about wording this so I’m just gonna word vomit and before anyone jumps to any accusations I suggest they check my post and comment history because I’m clearly not a supporter of the right at all.

That being said 2 weeks ago a video got reposted with a title FAFO where the video portrays one thing at first glance but includes a chunk of it being blurred out randomly. Many people were quick to jump on board with saying the dude got out of his car and invited what happened until someone pointed out that the blurred out part covered up someone from that group pulling the dudes door open when he was initially trying to close his window. I’ll circle back to this point of presenting false narratives.

I can speak for a matter of fact that people that are regulars with this group a few days before this jumped me at a vigil as it was wrapping up and posted a bunch of videos accusing me of being a white supremacist, maga, saying I was causing a commotion at the vigil, saying I was threatening to dox someone etc. with the only problem to that being that I am none of those things and the guy that instigated the whole thing in fact a few months before had made threats to me because I was calling out these people for showing up after LA initially stood up to ICE June 2025 and has constantly pushed people out, threatened them etc along with the guy who instigated it all also having started the “Tesla diner takedown “protest”” where in the same messages to me he claims they’ve raised tons of money for USAID which anyone who’s actually been following things knows got shutdown so thats an immediate grifter red flag. I hadn’t talked to the dude since May but on July 14th as the vigil was ending I was leaving with my friends and all a sudden I heard my name, get sucker punched and i immediately start running because a bunch of people were coming at me. They also proceeded to flash two of my friends tires as we tried to leave. Ironically Jake Lang showed up after that and the same people just kind of yelled at him and made him leave that was it.

Following getting jumped at a vigil Ive also been informed they’ve made multiple threats to press to try and present false narratives. This group also is just constantly brazenly posting these videos which is incredibly sus. Since July 2025 they’ve essentially hijacked the area people were showing up to protest. Common talking points of them tends to be insisting people listen to them because they participated in prior movements in previous years which at first might sound good but then ask yourself ok well why did this person I guess decide to move here from often out of state just to “protest” in LA? Why are they constantly trying to encourage people to do something dumb? Why are they always recording shit? Why are some of them getting “detained” by DHS like every other week and when they’re detained no one can find them in any system? Why are they always posting gofundme’s that are vague and leave out details but are worded like XYZ got arrested fighting fascism or defending democracy and in reality you find out it’s for doing something dumb, probably posting content about it and just changing the focus from helping the people ICE has detained to being about them.

Also I understand that I’m not presenting much proof of what I’m saying and that’s largely because I would essentially need to dox myself to show it. I’m not so much concerned with trying to impact anyone’s opinions of this group, who in my opinion are infiltrators but of what variety I’m not sure especially when looking at it from a horseshoe theory sort of lens. I’m more just wondering if other cities that have dealt with major ICE raids are experiencing anything similar. I’ve already noticed a trend of when any city starts to rise up they end up having all the same content creators show up which seems to be when things start going downhill

As the iconic graffiti towers are washed which I know a pretty fair amount of people don’t like seeing just a reminder that everyone has free will and is constitutionally protected to draw on their own balconies whatever they like such as FUCK ICE on their balconies (probably would recommend doing it in washable chalk paint or something but thankfully it doesn’t rain much). It’s DTLA it’s not like we’re some posh pristine city anyways. If you’re not artistic support your friend that’s a local artist and see if they’d want to do something to show off their skills and display the message you want.

I know it’s a bit of a weird situation with it not being a natural disaster and instead infrastructure failure but I was wondering if there was any way to help people out. When I first moved to LA I lived in WeHo and I’ve got a lot of free time so I’d like to help if I can.

Do pilots think this video is possibly legitimate or BS?

The 25th through the 29th there’s two flight restrictions set to happen with some FBI agent who does counter UAS stuff as the contact so was just curious if anyone knew why?

Boyle heights is under a shelter in place order but that cloud is spreading so just wanted to make sure people know?

I live in Los Angeles but am watching the live broadcast and I just wanted to give the community a shoutout for showing up and speaking up for their neighbors, their community, the zoo, the environment and more.

Just trying to upload some videos from June of last year but have trouble focusing in my own place. I was hoping to find a nice spot to get caffeinated at and be able to upload stuff. I have my own Ethernet cord and adapter. Also my building makes us use spectrum and it’s just awful. So yeah if anyone knows somewhere can they lmk or feel free to msg if you want to keep the spot low key?

Last year I decided to try moving into a high rise in DTLA (terrible idea) and the building I live in has been ridiculous about fees. The made up ones have been for parking. My place has reserved spots but also one’s designated as public because it’s also a public garage people can pay for and the fee for pubic spots maxes at $35 a day. Twice they’ve fined me $45 for parking in the public spots then placed a threaten to tow sticker on my car once. When they put the sticker on my window, which I still haven’t even managed to get all of it off my window, I pointed out to them that my lease doesn’t mention public spots it only mentions future resident, retail and reserved spots and sent them a screenshot of my lease proving my point and since then they’ve dropped it and haven’t charged me but it really rubbed me the wrong way among other dumb fines.

My building wants two months rent minimum if a lease is broken which I can’t do on top of trying to move so I was wondering if in LA/CA if those fines that weren’t defined in my lease and added onto the total for my rent can be used to get out of those move out fees?

Asking with California in mind but seems relevant in New Jersey as well. The basis of my question is how local governments and law enforcement agencies are often spamming calling unlawful assembly for protests in regards to detention centers.

In CA an unlawful assembly is defined by Penal Code 407 PC provides the legal definition of an unlawful assembly. The statute provides that “Whenever two or more persons assemble together to do an unlawful act, or do a lawful act in a violent, boisterous, or tumultuous manner, such assembly is an unlawful assembly.”

While I’m sure this was done not having these protests in mind it’s getting spammed and has lead to countless injuries. The problem with it is that it creates an easy to abuse solution for any group, corporation, elected officials etc. where if they disagree with something they simply have to two people go in and tag a building, throw something at officers, block traffic etc.
