Thanks for the read.

Makes me think about what could have been in South Central Los Angeles.
if that human excrement, Ralph Horowitz, hadn't sold the property that
was the South Central Community Garden. But he perceived an insult, and
decided on group punishment, and destroyed with warehouses, a vital
community asset, out of pettiness, and with no thought of the community.
