LAPD Using Threats, Citations & Arrests to Keep Performers off Hollywood

LAPD has issued a verbal ban on all characters and street performers. Although there is no official law on the books to enforce it. Because of a few bad apples, the LAPD and the city have wiped out all performers on Hollywood Blvd. To enforce the ban, the LAPD has used threats, bogus citations of loitering and arrests to get their point across. City Councilman Eric Garcetti who is responsible for Hollywood & Highland has denied numerous attempts to open a dialogue or to speak on the matter. Needless to say, I will not be voting for him in any capacity again.

BATMAN Gets Arrested June 2, 2010 As Garcetti Goes After Hollywood Characters

An NBC Channel 4 Reporter doesn't think Batman will be arrested while doing an interview...

In a world where companies like BP get a way with Wildlife Murder and destruction of the environment and people's ability to make a living off of fishing in the Gulf, it is only natural that in a broke city like Los Angeles that the LAPD and the City Council have the abundant resources to arrest and ban all the characters on Hollywood Blvd. Since Friday, there have been numerous arrests and citations given to any street performer who appears on Hollywood Blvd. It will be interesting to see where this is eventually going to lead as the LAPD uses extra man power to sweep the street clean and to enforce as many believe an Unconstitutional Law and Ban.
