Those scary LA murder and crime stats, how crime statistics mislead, and how to really compare them to crime in the US and the rest of the 1st World.

How and why the LA courts can keep you from travelling, and why LAlocalscan get around that kind of order a lot easier than Expats can (but you can do it too if you know the tricks)
