THE SPHINX OF CITY HALL
Glenn Bunting’s “The Sphinx of City Hall” (Jan. 19) reminded me of some of the reasons I moved out of Los Angeles eight years ago.
While the nation’s second-largest city withers on the economic vine, chokes on traffic and smog, puts up with renegade cops and allows moronic punks to roam the streets with automatic weapons, Mayor Tom Bradley busies himself hoarding socks, riding in as many parades as possible, enriching himself and his cronies with dubious business affiliations, and giving conflicting statements to the press, a group that he “came to lose confidence in.”
Little wonder that Los Angeles is starting to look like a carbon copy of New York City.
