LA vs Goths

"Fortress Los Angeles: The Militarization of Urban Space" By Mike Davis. Alright, I first wanted to start out saying that I was kind of lost when reading this piece. I believe that it was boring but I am still going to attempt to explain what I thought. Davis goes into detail about how the government is giving so much money to Los Angeles for the upperclass to benefit off of. At the same time the rest of Los Angeles society is being forgotten about. Davis says the government is only trying to help out the upperclass and tourist and not doing anything for anyone else. I think the government needs to stop worrying about the buildings and designs and pay a little more attention to the lower class and some of these problems can be helped. "Goths in Tomorrowland" By Thomas Hine. I found this article interesting because I could relate seeing this types of kids in high school and knowing about certain "clicks". I think there are good people within all types. Even though someone dresses like a "goth" doesn't mean they are trouble or bad. I feel that everyone expresses themselves differently and that should be accepted. I do not understand why if you didn't want to go to Disneyland ( a happy place) and be happy and have fun.. then why someone would go there? It ruins the atmosphere when you see someone sitting on a bench with an evil face at such a happy place, but that's just me!
