I live 3 blocks from <br />Santa Ana College, I live by 17th Street and Bristol/Flower. Drive down 17th and see the drugs, <br />homelessness, prostitutes, etc. I'm a citizen of the USA, Californian, born, raised and still live in <br />Santa Ana. My kids are at the Santa Ana Library EVERY WEEK (Civic Center & Newhope, every <br />one at the Library knows my wife and kids), why do we have to deal with unsafe environments? <br />Why can't my kids ride their bikes to the local 7-11(I'm 2 % blocks from two of them) to pick up <br />a Slurpee? Why doesn't Santa Ana protect the interest of the actual legal residence of this City? <br />I'm Hispanic, I'm a "minority", etc. but why does this city continue pander and cater to politics <br />that do not benefit the people who want to raise their kids in this City? Stop, trying to be like <br />LA. Look what is happening around the State to the cities that do not look out for their citizens <br />best interest - Oakland, San Francisco, LA, and now you can add Santa Ana. Look what is going <br />on in New York City, Chicago, Seattle, Portland. We need to start making Santa Ana a safe and <br />beautiful place for our kids. Stop the politics - focus on the legal, tax paying, hard working, <br />Santa Ana Residence! <br />Does Santa Ana have someone who is not backed by a political arm/brand that supports <br />nonsense policies? Or is it just assumed that because Santa Ana is 90% Mexican (of which I am <br />Mexican -American) that Santa Ana will continue to get the same brand of politics and policies <br />15 <br />
