[edit] Neutrality

This article doesn't seem to make any POV assertions, I don't think anyone can disagree with its admittedly sparse content, so I'm going to remove the non-neutral tag. 69.234.137.201 23:50, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge discussion

This section is for the discussion of the proposed move of the Skid Row#Los Angeles section to the Skid Row, Los Angeles, California community article.

With LA Times articles about the 'dumping' of the homeless and mentally ill in Skid Row by police departments and hospitals outside of the downtown area, and with the ACLA lawsuit against the LAPD for their tactics in Skid Row, among other new items, everything should be consolidated into the Skid Row community article.

I don't have time to update either this or the LA Skid Row section, but this article alleges that the police have photographed and videotaped the dumpings of patients on Skid Row. Can somebody update as needed? Pacifiedcitizen 14:12, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Homeless dumping on Skid Row

I haven't the time to update this article properly, but a well documented case of homeless dumping, and an article detailing past problems was in the LA Times Feb 9, 07 at: http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-dumping9feb09,0,7452706.story?track=mostviewed-storylevel Cheers!
