    When I left Miami in 2009 there were a lot of businesses closing Downtown. It’s Amazing to see how Brickell and Wynwood have thrived but Downtown Miami has gotten a lot worse.

      And after that what? ... Traditional, family owned shops are disappearing in most cities, old dowtown areas now look like ghost cities, especially by night. Small businesses survive becoming slaves under large shoping centers located in fancy neighborhoods. Lovely historical citiy centers of Lima, Buenos Aires and Santiago de Chile changed for worst in the last 30 years.

    Rago, the corruption of Dade is too great a burden to be exposed by only one man...on the other hand, you know the city, would be great to see a history tour pointing out all the great and once great buildings regardless of occupancy. There are many new buildings, a changed skyline, but those old classic structures could use a spotlight. I remember walking those sidewalks as a child in 1960, the place was busy, but nobody lived downtown. The air raid sirens scared me, but the adults just ignored them. The Dupont bldg was the first to have air conditioning. Would love to see a video profiling about 20 of the old survivors.

    On weekends, sometimes you will see family members of the prisoners in that facility set up lawn chairs on N Miami Ave, block the sidewalk with the lawn chair, have snacks and a cooler, a set of binoculars and they will gaze into specific "port holes" or windows of the prison to try and communicate and see their loved ones who are locked up. The prisoners will sometimes tap on the glass windows and the family members sitting in the lawn chairs on the sidewalk will call their young babies/toddlers to look up and wave.. what a world we live in.

Anytime me and my wife go out to eat or shopping we head up north to Broward don't do anything in Miami. It's just the people are much different in Broward county than Miami-Dade i mean just my opinion. Smh This is sad.

    For years Europeans rejected the idea of pedestrian friendly streets with no parking, then they found out when they shut down streets for pedestrian foot traffic only, it was like creating an outdoor mall, with restaurants and tables lining the streets. It's annoying hearing Foreigners complain about USA's 'unwalkable cities' but it's high key true. Making everything car centric just brings room for crime and people to get away with littering and breaking things...like just make free or cheap parking structures...

    That whole city should be! There are no Law Enforcements, No County Staff, No Attorneys, No Judges, No anything that a victim can go to in order to report a Crime. Basically 90 percent of those who work in agencies that services the residents in that city are not in their bodies (swapped) and of them a great portion of them are CULT members that targets people with SPECIFIC jobs in order to manipulate victims claims/complaints and the other portion of CULT members just want other people’s job skills for the pay to speed up NICE houses for themselves and their families. Once achieved, they leave to that island! And you wonder for how long those Billions of dollars went to and why SO MANY programs and city events & activities decreased drastically and/or no longer exists! As Tallahassee is PAID to hush the situation! To those who remembered me and were with me during those days, my heart is always with you, you have been a family I never got to have because of the United States obsession in stealing Celestials (Angels) to steal our knowledges and technologies as they target us and any offspring we may have with or without consent until they succeed in murdering us, as if (such is the difference between a Celestial and a creation of humanity made by Celestials for THIS planet). I will never forget the massive damages, sabotages, physical harm, negligence, the discrimination, the slander of my reputation of helping people throughout the decades while stolen as my own income of the years of my jobs (employment) I’ve had over the decades get stolen 2/3 of it by the corrupted Social Security of Administration. How they forged documents in my court hearings that mandated arrests of those who stole Thousands of Dollars of a Federal Program amongst those who also contributed (leading to Billions of Dollars). And for those SSA case workers who stole decades of my Credits (I worked since 18 years old) as the obsession of stealing my daughter who was about to graduate from high school within 180 days. The list of felonies committed are soooooo immense, it would literally take you hours. To those destined to return home to Paradise don’t be afraid, it is your place of origin. For all others, MY courtroom awaits you. I can’t imagine with what money was used to convert a part of Miami to look like Lincoln Blvd. (Because you had none). For those who are new/recent residents. You have no idea the way Miami has been operating and what awaits if you ever become a victim for reporting something that interrupts the safety and economic welfare of all residents. I had so many positive memories with my daughters, until the stalking and attacking took over until they were murdered (to this day, still no answers). I thought I’d give an input in memory of many of my neighbors that became victims, who went missing, murdered, and had to forcefully leave the state. I guarantee you this, Miami was not like this, otherwise I wouldn’t have RAISED my daughters in that City (from Elementary to High School). Thought I’d remind Miami of how much money is owed to me, in case they forgotten or PRETEND not to remember. (That’s 23 agencies worth that I’m owed). With much respect and care who never got to meet me when I lived there. My job and responsibilities as a Divine SEAL (Celestial) will continue to audit until my final decision is made. Be safe, trust no one in that City, look out for each other (those with “Clean Hearts”) and avoid sketchy/scrupulous people who has dark agendas. 🫶😇
