"Venice beach flooded in a number of areas after the Christmas rains and of course a few years of city neglect. The homeless encampment clean ups have been off and on through the holidays with no consistency. Today one group living in a parking lot didn't have to move and another, that had multiple handicap elderly people lined up on the sidewalk outside the only homeless shelter around, had to move or lose everything. And sanitation refused to help a homeless woman who's appendix bursts, so I asked LAPD to call an ambulance."

Cop Watch Venice follows LAPD pacific division on world famous Venice beach, showing a point-of-view style cop watch and update on Venice's current conditions. We make edited shorts, full scenes and are working on a documentary about homelessness and city failures. Donate to Cop Watch Venice via Cop Watch Venice Paypal

Aerial surfing of single fin logger Kassia Meador. We’ve seen Kassia surf out at Malibu & San Onofre and she’s as smooth as It gets on a longboard. Her style & easy flowing approach on waves is a pleasure to see In person. Here’s a couple waves on a magical evening glass off from HULA SURF T.V.
