Villaraigosa Ignores Outcry, Will Build 6-Foot Wall Around Mansion « CBS Los Angeles
LOS ANGELES (CBS) — Despite the objections of his neighbors, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa has ordered city officials to proceed with a plan to erect a six-foot wall around the mayor’s mansion.

We can’t think about global warming as some far-away problem of melting polar ice caps, rising sea-levels, and distant hurricanes in remote places. It is OUR problem here in Los Angeles. This is a global problem with severe local repercussions. The time to act is NOW. Just as no family would watch its house burn down without rallying the community to fight the fire, we need to sound the alarm, join hands, and face this challenge together. We can’t afford to dither, delay, or declare defeat for another year. This is a crisis that we can and must meet.
