West Hollywood votes to reduce Los Angeles County sheriff funding amid crime wave
A trendy Los Angeles County community has voted to reduce law enforcement funding despite escalating crime and public backlash.
The budget for the next two fiscal years will leave West Hollywood with up to five fewer Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies on patrol, WeHoville reported.
The budget was approved by a narrow 3-2 vote with Mayor Lauren Meister dissenting as well as Councilman John Erickson.
"I’m not going to vote for the budget if we cut the sheriff’s (funds)," Meister said, according to the news outlet. "First of all, nobody has the gun problem that we have in this country. You can’t expect us to have a public safety team where most of the people aren’t armed in order to defend our citizens."..............

WeHo is where the gays are (Ted Buck, Adam Schiff territory). They will be low-hanging fruit, no pun intended, for criminals.

As the recall votes in SF demonstrate, even reliable Libs and Progs have a threshold of pain when it comes to their safety and their children. This vote may not end well for the 3 who voted for less LE protection in the midst of a crime wave.

For all its image, the City of Hollywood is a rather gritty grimy place, not worthy of tourist visits. I'm not sure the City of West Hollywood is much better.

I wonder how many CCW's in the community and if the POS AG outed them too? That should play well, not only cutting Sheriff patrols and coverage but telling the criminals which gay household has guns for the taking.

West Hollywood votes to defund sheriffs as crime soars by 137 percent
West Hollywood's city council has voted to defund their sheriff's department despite crime rocketing 137 percent. The proposal, passed by a narrow three to two vote, will see the current force of around 60 sheriff's deputies reduced by four. Funds saved by reducing the headcount will be used to pay for unarmed 'security ambassadors' under a scheme called Block By Block. Despite slashing the policing budget, the council agreed to stump up funds for a Russian arts festival - increasing their contribution by $14,000 to $50,000.
