That's what @MayorRobles is proposing at the city council meeting tomorrow. Gun sales an possession would be effectively banned within city limits. A gun would only be allowed inside a home for home protection.
#NEW: As of today in LA County, if paramedics/EMTs can’t get a patient’s heart beating again on scene, they will no longer transport that patient to the hospital.
That way, doctors in overrun ERs can provide care for patients who are viable. New directive below.
Medical director Dr. Marc Eckstein of @LAFD tells me wait times are dangerously long.
During Christmas week, one hospital had 19 ambulances waiting to offload at the same time.

Why not take patients to other counties?
He says, “the reality is the entire region is severely impacted right now. So there's really nowhere to go. Orange County and Ventura County, they're all experiencing the same surge right now... this is not overstating the situation.”
Here’s a breakdown of the President’s tax returns obtained by the New York Times and #WhyItMatters.
The @nytimes obtained 18 years of President Trump’s tax returns. Sources gave access to three NYT reporters to examine his tax records which have not been made public.
KEY POINTs
📉He paid $750/yr in federal income tax in 2016 (year he became president) and in 2017 (his first year in office).
📉11 out of 18 yrs the Times reviewed, Mr. Trump reported he lost more than he made, so he paid no income tax.
📉Over 18 years of returns the Times reviewed, he paid $95 Million in taxes BUT got $72.9 Million of that back in federal tax refunds.
📉He has $421 Million in loans and debt that will have to be paid back in coming years.
#UPDATE: Here is a still of the shooter from the ambush of LASD deputies in Compton tonight. LASD says two of their deputies were shot in the head. @abc7leanne has the full video.
