Quote:So according to your logic, I shouldn't say that LA should clean up its smog cause I have never been there... Got ya. Thats silly Perk. He had a good idea. Don't hate.

 

Anyone can throw dung at a wall to see what sticks.  That means nothing without knowing the current social, economic, and political makeup of the city, its neighborhoods, and development successes, failures, and trends of the surrounding area.

 

There are many reasons things are the way the currently are, as there are many challenges and circumstances around them.

 

Without knowing a single thing about those challenges, is simply ignorance.  If you don't know, then you don't know.  Money to raise, pockets to grease, residents to involve (LOL... we can't even get a ChicFilA in Mandarin without raising holy hell, yet another of the laundry list of things he wouldn't know about)...

 

But really, the most telling is that he still refuses to answer my questions and get to the truth.  Because if you don't know, there's a lot of history behind the way things are, and you could never could understand the obstacles they're facing.

 

This is worse than the "stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night" joke.  In this case, "I drove by the Holiday Inn Express only once in my life but I did take a picture" is more appropriate.  Because he's embarassed that's the truth.  Our biggest fan only has a photo of the stadium.

 

And that's the rest of the story (and why he didn't want to answer.)
