This guy is so proud of the USA and particularly the LA area. More people should be like him. A happy man with happy content.

[@petrolo72]

He puts on his “theater face” on the videos, he is after all making money off of these videos. If google/KZbin algorithms and employees see his content showing negativity and speaking his true opinion on the state of our city with all increases in rampant crime, astronomical murder rates, drug use, homelessness, and just all around lawlessness, he would be shadow banned and have his channel removed at some point.

[@DamienYuen7718]

What is there to be proud of anymore? The crime? Poverty? Taxes? corruption? Pollution? A million people didn't leave the state last year for nothing. I just sold and cashed out myself. The sucker who bought my house can now deal with everything that i didn't tell him about.

It didn’t do that well in the opening weekend. The Director is good. I liked his scary film, “Mama”. He also directed the two “IT” movies. What your friend had at the Cheesecake Factory is what I usually get. Love it! Keep making these spontaneous videos. Ok. They are good! 👍

Thanks for all the great videos of L.A. The only thing I can suggest is that you show the scenic parts of L.A. that gives good views of different parts of the ocean and coastline and scenic parts of L.A. that gives a good view of L.A. I can think of The Malibu Hills, The Santa Monica Mountains, The hills and canyons in the L.A. basin and maybe the Angeles National Forest. You'd have to do some scouting on youtube and in the County. There's also places in Ventura County that offer great scenery. There all higher elevation places. Maybe you could also show the outside and inside of the really old Mansions of L.A. That would be hard but if you asked for permission, it might be possible. There is a tremendous amount of history there. The deserts outside of L.A. also has some historical places. The large dunes that are shown in the movie The Doors would be great to see. Take care and stay safe.
