2028 Los Angeles Olympics Looking To Ban Cars

It’s never too early to push the climate cult crazy

No-car Games: Los Angeles Olympic venues will only be accessible by public transportation

Traffic. What will you do about notorious gridlocked Los Angeles traffic? That’s the one burning question repeatedly posed to Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass as she prepares to receive the Olympic flag ahead of the 2028 Summer Games.

“A no-car Games,” Bass said Saturday.

Huh?

Bass and Casey Wasserman, chairman of the LA 2028 organizing committee, highlighted some of the planning already completed before Paris organizers hand the Games over to them during Sunday’s closing ceremony. Bass was preemptive about the traffic, addressing it in her opening remarks.

“We’re already working to create jobs by expanding our public transportation system in order for us to have a no-car Games,” she said. “And that’s a feat for Los Angeles, as we’ve always been in love with our cars. We’re working to ensure that we can build a greener Los Angeles.”

Working from home, that is.

Bass said public transportation will be the only way to access the Los Angeles venues, and her plan to address traffic snarls consists of both using 3,000 buses that will be borrowed from all over the country and asking businesses to allow their employees to work from home during the 17-day period.

I mean, it kinda makes sense, because traffic in LA can be a nightmare. Of course, much depends on where on LA the events will be held. And they better plan well, because all those millions of people coming to LA via fossil fueled flights and vehicles will be pretty mad if it is tough to get to the venues on these buses. And getting mugged and beaten and robbed. Seriously, LA isn’t really known for have a world class mass transit system, and what will the city do if citizens say “nope, I’m driving?”

Then there’s the homeless

Bass said she’s working at both the government level and with the private sector and vowed: “We are going to get Angelinos housed.”

“That is what we have been doing, and we’re going to continue to do that,” Bass said. “We will get people housed. We will get them off the street. We will get them into temporary housing, address the reason why they were unhoused and get them into permanent housing.”

Yeah, just like with Paris they will be cleaned out and forcibly relocated away.

Anyhow, I can’t wait for all the celebrities, politicians, and millionaire-actors to get caught driving their fancy sports car to an event, and all the average citizens who were told to “stay home” wondering what’s going on. Oh, and if Mayor Bass, provided she’s still mayor then, driving up in a limo.
