Street Takeovers

Hispanic father and daughter were part of a street takeover on the sixth street bridge in Los Angeles, California

Officers stopped the takeover, but the Hispanic father says they should be allowed to do have these takeovers

“She’s 13, I’m her dad. i allow her to ride ’cause I’m right next to her — As long as we ride together with them, as a parent, it shouldn’t be a crime and it shouldn’t be illegal”

This absolute moron who taught his 13-year-old child to be an entitled public nuisance, then proceeds to claim that the law is subjective and he should be able to clog up the street whenever he feels like it. “It shouldn’t be a crime so it isn’t a crime” he informs the interviewer.

These “takeovers” are part of a big new wave of diverse people overrunning public spaces and making these spaces dangerous and uncomfortable for everybody. First, it was blacks. Now it’s also Hispanics. Malls, parks, highways, residential streets, etc., get overrun by groups of people who bring children, often very young ones, to be able to explain the event as a childish prank.

The point of the activity is to be a nuisance. It is to disrupt well-ordered, peaceful environments for no reason other than because you can.

    for no reason other than because you can

    …and because one cannot.

    About a century ago, the U.S. lost most of its free public carnival spaces: Parks and so on that had free-standing pay-as-one goes rides as well as free ones, to waves of the de-segregated Southern black-identifying. One can still find remnants of them, privately supported, public lands, free to all, including the mix of ride types in places people identifying as black do not want to live in and so never reach a tipping point.

    All the newly-migrated get to be treated as these swathes of indifferently-civilized. Whyso continues to puzzle me. “They worship retarded gods that hate humanity” lacks granularity.

      This is a very important point about carnivals. They have existed historically for centuries because they served the crucial purpose of a release valve for the tensions of civilization. The more educated among us now use anonymous social media for this purpose. But what about those who cannot string three words together? Where do they go?

      I’m obviously not justifying these behaviors, but I’m saying that traditions exist for a reason, and wiping them out has consequences.

        For African Americans, that was traditionally one of the functions of church and a lot of the emotionally extravagant behavior surrounding Black worship is partially about releasing tensions built up during the week. Probably true of rural whites in the South, like Pentecostals….

        Drugs and other forms of dysfunction are a very poor substitute….
