    It is Friday night in Hollywood where the weird people come out and play. I did not want to stay at home so I took my little bike out and went up and down Hollywood Boulevard to see what was going on right when you think you saw it all you see something unexpected there’s always something to see what a crazy night

    As a Polish individual who resided in the USA for over 35 years, I experienced a gradual decline in quality of life each year since my arrival. Four years ago, the tipping point was reached, prompting my family's return to Poland. We now reside happily in Warsaw, enjoying its safety and cleanliness. Our daughter, born in California, Orange County refuses to entertain the thought of returning. This decision ranks among the best in my life. It's not solely a California issue; the entire country is crumbling while its elites prioritize excessive spending on endless wars and undocumented immigrants.

      Depending on the day and hour you go’ Cali always remember’ night time is dangerous - daytime is peaceful times. - find the free public parking places’ Google it! Hollywood Blvd has a couple or pay to park on the street’
      General safety the more you have in your group’ if no trouble makers? But go for the walk up and back on Hollywood Blvd can take a few hours if you sightseeing’ the beach 🏖 also from Venice to Santa Monica!

When someone is on whatever drug that was, I'm assuming probably Flakka or whatever, they become what @germaninvenice said, "Superhuman." They become so combative that it's hard for them to control, let alone 1 cop. My husband has type 1 diabetes, and when his sugar drops low, where he shouldn't be walking, let alone alive, he sometimes, becomes "superhuman." When I can't get his sugar under control, and I have to call 911, I have to let them know he is combative. That way they know which EMTs and police officers to send. It's different every time.

    will never forget growing up there. Thanks for bringing this Vid to us and showing how the lsndscape has changed. I am going back to stay for a month or so this Summer but not near Sunset.

    30 years ago, some friends and I went to a club on Hollywood Blvd. We had run into the club manager, when he had car trouble, and he had given us VIP passes. So, my friends and I decided to take a road trip. If I recall, the club was across the street from the Chinese Theater. The vibe on Hollywood Blvd was a lot different, back then.

    i graduated from UC berkeley in june 1984. decided to take a back pack to LA for two weeks. Got a room on Hollywood Blvd, up a block off Vine, now where the metro station is. It had all kind of weird characters. The Blvd would be grid locked with traffic on weekend nights; literally no movement so packed, from a few blocks east of Vine all the way to Highland. Anyway, po po would put up road checks on the Blvd, and would tow an endless loop of cars. One night, one guy got into something with one of the cops, and he flinched at the cop, and several beat him for a couple of minutes, with the clubs. Right in public, a crowd was around and as noted it was gridlock. I remember that..they had no hesitation or worry of being in trouble. I used to get up early in jog around east hollywood, it was pretty warm in June. Within a week I got a job as a guard, easy to get, and worked outside the LA coliseum during the olympics. Then I worked at a game show in July and August and after that was a guard at Sunset Gower studios. Gene Autry had his office, or an office, there, went in after hours one night and it was pretty nice, I always was impressed by his ethic after that. By September I got a job at Unifax insurance, 7866 beverly i believe, and worked there until March 1985. I worked both jobs, guard and insurance for a couple of weeks. By this time I had a studio in Echo Park 1443 N Alvarado. I used to get off from the guard job in hollywood in the evening, and run down hollywood blvd in my guard pants and a tee shirt, holding my shirt, work shoes, etc. in a bag, all the way to Echo Park. Young and with stamina. On other nights I would jog around Echo Park at midnight, cuz in 1984 the air was so bad mid day jogging was impossible. Went to LA City College all my months there, took chinese, math, and computer. I was pretty good in chinese, not so in math and computer. Met my good friend Johnny Cho in the computer class, if johnny is out there, try to find me. Made friends with an older mexican born lady with a good safeway job and two young kids; it did not go as far as I wanted and guess it ended when I moved back to Nor Cal. Used to be magazine stands on several corners in hollywood, i was a reading nut and always liked the political magazines. I put an ad in a spanish paper for a girlfriend and think i went on one date, she spoke no english and me no spanish. I also got contacted through the ad with a mixed girl white, spanish who lived in Inglewood, i had no car so i used to bus there. Pretty crazy, waiting on a corner in Inglewood to get the bus back to H Wood. Funny, all the weird places I went, late night jogs, bus in inglewood, I never really had any fear. guess is you show fear it materializes. All for now...
