and why did the mail carrier not call federal police to the scene is a mystery. not to mention it is a federal felony to prohibit a mail carrier from performing his duties. where are the charges? its too bad that mail district got mail carrier lite, and he wouldn't handle it the way he should. to be honest the mail carrier needs a review since he should have known how to handle the situation and he shouldn't have let the security from preventing him from passing where he needed too. not to mention the business owners seem to be awfully quite about their rights being violated.

Tom Andrews - have you ever looked at CD13? It's kind of funny how SunJun fits EXACTLY into CD13. A couple of blocks one way or the other and it'd also be in CD4. (Tom LaBonge's district.) http://cd13.lacity.org/pdf/CD13.pdf

Contact the USPS Inspector Generals office. Interfering with a US mail carrier, while discharging their duties, is a federal offense.

Neither rain, nor sleet, nor dark of night, eh? But some rent-a-cop somehow stops the mail?

They better turn the organizer in... This is 'ripping people off' plain simple and clear as it is stated on the permit.

according to the organizers 2006 return (available on guidestar), when all is said and done, the festival spendt $90,000 on "youth outreach". mind you the festival costs over $325,000. hmmmmm. not much return to the community for the cost of the event. And how that $90,000 breaks down - how many kids receive services and what kind - is a total mystery.
