The Case (Part 3): Black, Federalized Citizens Against Los Angeles County
Factor I: General State of Homelessness
Scenario 1
Los Angeles Is the National Homelessness Capital, and That of Homeless US Military Veterans
- The highest number of homeless persons in the nation
- Homeless people from around the nation, depicting the dysfunction of other local jurisdictions
Scenario 2
Triad-Declared State of EMERGENCY
LA County & City and CA State Assembly declared a state of EMERGENCY
Factor II: Violations of Public Health, Safety, and Building Codes:
County Sanctioning De Facto, Illegal Outdoors, Encampment, Makeshift Shelters
Note: By not enforcing its own public health, safety, and building codes as it would on anyone
…or entity, LA County is allowing-sanctioning (over 3 decades – 33 ½ years) its cities, such as,
…Los Angeles proper, to operate a myriad of dysfunctional, de facto, unsupervised, illegal, outdoor,
…encampment, make-shift shelters, whereby homeless persons are forced to dwell in appalling
…condition on city sidewalks, under bridge overpasses, etc., which is unfit for human habitation.
Therefore, the County is directly violating its public health, safety, and building codes,
…thereby de facto sanctioning such “deviant” behavior.
Again, should anyone attempt to open or operate a shelter and it lacks the necessary amenities, thereby
…violating county codes, the county insists that city law enforcement rightly shut it down for obvious reasons.
A. Case in point is the 1985 Justiceville shantytown encampment in the heart of Skid Row,
The root cause of the Jones and Boise Acts, etc., case:
In the Justiceville documentary, the county official says that the reason for shutting down the encampment
…and even having the police arrest any activists who resist by illegally occupying the property was that it
…lacked the necessary amenities for public health, safety, and building violations.
Then, the county official rhetorically asks, “Are the street and sidewalks a danger to public health, safety,
…and building, etc., i.e., the evicted homeless persons?” His reply was, “Yes.” Then he went silent.
He admits that the County itself violated said codes. BOOM!
Also, the State is in contempt of its codes and statutes because it does not enforce the
…Welfare Institutions Code (WIC) in the counties.
- Treacherously dangerous situation
These legitimized living conditions are physically, mentally (psychologically-emotionally
…intellectually–cultural mindset), and civic-socially DANGEROUS to homeless persons,
…as well as the local general populations, i.e., residential and commercial neighborhoods.
- The Jones Law As A “weapon and tool” – “Flipping Script” – Capturing it
…making it our “beast of burden”
California Courts, including most of the western states, by the 9th District Court rulings, had correctly given
…clemency to/for individuals, i.e., homeless persons to dwell on any public property they choose,
…until governments, cities, counties, states, and the federal government provide adequate housing,
…gainful employment, as well as appropriate social services for the indigent homeless persons.
Therefore, correct pressure from the courts now becomes a “weaponized instrument” that all the more authenticates
…the mayor’s plea to the County, State, and Federal White House governments for the resources, personnel, and materials.
Hence, the Hon. LA Mayor, Eric Garcetti, is morally and legally correct, as an “innocent” even victim of a situation that
…he and the city are not liable for, but are doing whatever good is possible with such limited resources, thereby,
…appearing as the champion of the towns and residents, including the homeless population.
Factor III: Black Citizens Factor
LA County Violating US Civil Rights Laws of Black Citizens
Given that the State, as the County, is also in rebellion, but has all the right to appeal to POTUS,
…even the US Supreme Court, and all of Congress, because of the presence of homeless, black citizens, i.e.,
…the chattel slave, et al, descendants, the possessors of The 14th Amendment Act.
Scenario 1
Black Citizens Racial component – Disproportionately, black citizens are 8%-9% respectively of both
…governmental jurisdictions, yet, over 40% of the homeless are in downtown Skid Row, of the individuals
…dwelling on sidewalks, etc., over 90% are black men, followed by black women and their children,
…then a mixture of other ethno-racial identities, thereby triggering the authority and powers of
…the 14th Amendment- 1866 Civil Rights Act (The Act)
Scenario 2
Black Code-Jim Crowism Laws of County Zoning Codes
The LA County zoning codes book states that residential housing in industrial areas (light &/or heavy)
…is correctly prohibited, yet the government officials have contradicted this and zoned it for the homeless
…persons facilities, several for the homeless, US Military Veterans.
A. Black Code- Jim Crow Zoning of the Homeless
The zoning of homeless facilities in light to heavy industrial areas, reminiscent of Black Codes- Jim Crow laws
…of racial-class segregation, i.e., “other side of the track-ism” (OSOTT-ISM), violates the 1964 Civil Rights Act,
…as well as the 14th Amendment, noting Section 1, “as is enjoyed by white citizens.”
B. Racial, Class, Political Prejudice Against Black Activists
For three (4) decades, the County has continually practiced racial, class bias, as well as political prejudice,
…and in many cases, persecution of this Union republic’s foremost and leading Civil Rights-homelessness activist,
…who happens to be black, as is the overwhelming disproportion of his fellows.
Factor III
Qualified and Authorized for POTUS Executive Order(s) Intervention
The items above are the corpus delicti, i.e., the body of evidence that the LA County Board of Supervisors and the LA Mayor
…are qualified to call for and expect federal, i.e., Presidential intervention and issuing of appropriate orders to rectify homelessness
