The majority of lawsuits that have damaged LA's transit progress is from homeowner groups. Thus, no sympathy on my end. People chose to live in one of the largest cities in the world. LA is not a suburb.

Interesting to find out about your personal anger, but not relevant to anything. You suggested that neighborhood groups are looking for extortion. That's not true as you would see if you spent even 30 seconds talking to them. So arguing with them as if they were looking for extortion will be fruitless.
