The Mayoral candidates are going to be living in South L.A. over the course of the next 6 weeks or so. We are supposed to be the voters to carry Gruel or Garcetti into office. YAY, us!

I know some of the community malaise has to do with the constant barrage of issues that always seem to be occurring around us. For years we've been…
