Huge thank you to the people who helped me shape the character up to this point.

The art of Zen is a profound practice that transcends traditional notions of artistry. It is an expression of being fully present in the moment, embracing the essence of simplicity, and cultivating a deep awareness of the interconnectedness of all things. In Zen, art is not confined to the creation of physical objects but extends to every aspect of life itself. It is found in the arrangement of a flower, the pouring of tea, the brushstroke on a canvas, or even the act of washing dishes. It is a way of infusing intention, mindfulness, and authenticity into every action, transforming the mundane into a sacred act. The art of Zen is characterized by a sense of harmony, balance, and a deep appreciation for the beauty of imperfection. It invites us to let go of preconceived notions, to release attachments to outcomes, and to surrender to the creative flow that arises naturally from within. Through the art of Zen, we learn to quiet the mind, to embrace silence, and to listen deeply to the whispers of our intuition. It is a practice that encourages us to strip away the layers of complexity, allowing the essence of our true selves to shine forth. In the art of Zen, there is no separation between the artist and the artwork. It is an expression of the interconnectedness of all beings, a reminder that we are merely vessels through which creativity flows. It invites us to surrender to the process, to trust in the unfolding of each moment, and to let go of the ego's desire for control. Ultimately, the art of Zen is a celebration of the present moment, a recognition of the inherent beauty and perfection that exists in every breath, every gesture, and every brushstroke of life. It invites us to cultivate a deep sense of appreciation, gratitude, and reverence for the interconnected tapestry of existence, as we dance harmoniously with the rhythm of the universe.

LSSD: Operation Safe Streets and Operation Long Reach - Necessary Measures Or Targeting Minorities? Written by Gabriel Stone - 4th March 2023 Operation Safe Streets Above: Photos that surfaced on Facebrowser following Operation Safe Streets' actions. Credit to Jenny Z Tattoos on Facebrowser. On the evening of the 25th of February, Operation Safe Streets Bureau moved into the area of Little Seoul. Reportedly this initiative was led by Sgt. Sarah Bubsy. Pictures began to emerge across facebrowser, photos of detainments being carried out by the LSSD in the area. Residents claim that anyone asian on the streets in the area were targeted for allegedly unusual reasons such as "Walking too slow" or "Holding a beer", some were reportedly pressured and/or detained for filming the proceedings. Residents also claim they had their photos taken up against walls and searched. Intertwined with these reports are claims of racist language being used by the LSSD during searches such as "Ch**ky" and "Jackie Chan" towards youths and adults alike. Residents reached out to Los Santos Insider to investigate and since the 26th of February we've been on the ground in Little Seoul to investigate the claims personally and to delve into the facts surrounding the actions of the LSSD. Unfortunately we've been unable to get a response from the LSSD or the District Attorney Harper Meyer regarding Operation Safe Streets, though the DAO did inform us that their own investigations were still ongoing and that they could not speak to us until that had concluded. I was able to interview some of the community in Little Seoul the day following the incident for some insight as to what happened. "They had f*****g kids n' elders up against the wall, like they're some sort of fuckin terrorists, y'know? One of the deputies, yeuh? He was callin' this li'l kid, his name is Duggy, they were callin' him 'ch***y' n 'Jackie Chan' n racist s**t like that. How f****d up do you gotta be, yeuh? As a grown ass man to be harassin' a lil kid like that?" When asked if he had captured these events on video, he responded "Oh, yeuh, one lady that was recordin' all these ILLEGAL pat-downs? She got ARRESTED, too. A woman in her fifties! N' they had her on a headlock, like she's the f*****g unabomber!" I asked who this woman was and another male responded "Sophie Wu, she leads the local Suey Sing. Sweetest lady you'll ever f*****g meet." he also added "They detained me for walking slow, too. Whut kinda law is that?" I asked on what grounds Mrs. Wu was arrested and one man said "They said she was disturbin' a crime scene, y'know what the crime scene was? A guy drinkin a f*****g beer!" Another young male interjected regarding another incident that had occurred days before in the community "I got a picture of a bunch of cops who used a tazer on this kid a few days back, just over there. He was just riding a BMX, didn't have anything on him." Another added "Yo, that was straight up racial profiling n s**t, mane. S**t was crazy." A lady present brought up the recently opened community center "It's seriously f****d up. Like, we're trying to make things better and s**t with the community centre and then all this?" The talk of the community center sparked new conversation "They don't like how we're all together as one, as a community" one man said, while another added "I think they see that the community's organized, y'know? We're not fighting each other, we're doing business, we're helpin' each other out, we're showin' love, y'know?" "One of the deputies even told me this is about ASIANS around K Town." Said one individual, while another added "This what the big man sees as a threat, y'know? How dare we, as Asians, get together wit Latinos?" and yet another man said "N' they fear what we can do together — you don't see them publicly humiliating people like this in Vespucci or Vinewood, Hawick - any of those rich areas." During the following days I spent time on the streets of Little Seoul observing the interactions between the LSSD and the community. On the 27th of February I came across a shirtless man being detained with his friends nearby frustrated and trying to reason with deputies. I approached after the LSSD dispersed to ask what had happened "They just jumped out, this man here he gets quite afraid of large crowds, he ran from LTD to here, they tazed him, stripped off his shirt and took pictures without any sorta consent.'' This adds to multiple reports of local individuals being photographed for defining marks and tattoos after being detained. The angry individual went back to his friend group and did end up fighting briefly with another before being pulled apart and calmed down by friends. Interview With Sophie Wu Above: Video captured on a phone of the arrest. I set off to find Sophie Wu, a figure that the community was clearly fond of that had been arrested during Operation Safe Streets. After locating Mrs. Wu I was able to interview her regarding the events of the 25th of February. Mrs. Wu: Mm, it was terrible. I was thrown into jail! Me! A fifty-year-old housewife. Stone: Oh so you were actually arrested? Not just detained? How long did they put you away for? Mrs. Wu: I was, they charged me with obstruction and disturbing the peace. I was in jail for a day or so. Sent me straight to the big slammer too. Stone: So in your own words... what happened that night that resulted in your arrest? Mrs. Wu: OK, OK. This'll be a lot so take notes... Mrs. Wu: It was like any other day in Little Seoul y'know? We had plans to have a community gathering of sorts. I saw cop cars stopping and watching as I set up. So I thought something was off n’ went to go investigate. I turn the corner n’ see maybe seven cars? Crowds of sheriffs. N’ next minute all my nephews are lined up along the wall, they weren't doing anything but talking. These cops started giving petty excuses to search them y'know? "Oh, you looked at me funny? Detained." So I flip out my phone to record it n then a few cops turned on me. I was taking photos of their cars n' they accused me of jaywalking. Took my photo too and my ID. They moved me to where I couldn't record them, far away. Anyway So after that happened n’ everyone calmed down, the cops had left n' everyone was enjoying the party. I see another nephew walking back to the party n' next minute? He's swarmed, five cars. All he had was a beer in his hand n’ the cops jumped out, accusing him of committing some terrible crime. I pulled out my phone again to record n' they again turn on me, telling me to move. This time I stood my ground, it was my right to record such corruption. So they start getting a little aggressive, trying to move me. I say no n’ then suddenly I'm in cuffs for 'obstructing a crime scene'' They say. I asked what crime scene? N’ no answer. Anyway they lead me to a car n’ search me. I had a little knife on me because what woman doesn't? This city is dangerous. They tried to make out I was some sort of danger. Then I'm hauled off to the station, my photo is taken n' I'm sent straight to jail— My charges have been dismissed. So essentially? They falsely imprisoned me. Stone: I see...were you allowed to keep your footage and photos? Mrs. Wu: I shouted to the kids to start recording just in case. Their footage was sent to my lawyers. Mrs. Wu: The people around here have been victimized by the LSSD. They've been portrayed as dangerous people, harassed. Women, teenagers, men of all ages. It's racism at this point. They say they're gang members for simply being proud of the area they live. They threw every petty law at them to detain them, it's not right. The real criminals walk around getting away with things. Stone: Would you say this is a problem that has been going on long before the incident the other night? Mrs. Wu: I would, yes. Mrs. Wu: What they're doing is destroying lives. My arrest? My reputation is ruined, my hopes of stepping onto the senate have been destroyed. Mrs. Wu: They've demolished what little locals have. People are scared to go on the street in fear of being harassed by the LSSD. Stone: Would you say this damaging the sense of community? This comes not long after the opening of the new community center. Mrs. Wu: It is. There is no community at the moment because nobody will step outside. People fear being with friends or family. God forbid they have tattoos. It's over for them, their life will be ruined. Stone: I've seen anger, too. Anger that transfers back into the community. I saw one man go from being detained by the LSSD for a search to fighting on the street with a younger man. They were pulled apart by their friends. Would you say this anger transfers back into the community? A domino effect. Mrs. Wu: It does. People are angry, they're on edge. It's causing damage to our community. Stone: Thank you, Sophie... the local community seems very fond of you. Mrs. Wu: No thank you for hearing me out. They're like my family, I'll do what I can to protect them. Even if it means going to jail for recording! Mrs. Wu released a public statement. The area code 213 holds significance to the individuals of Little Seoul and community members have been seen wearing pins and shirts declaring "Stop Asian Hate" at news conferences and community gatherings. The LSSD claimed in court, in the case of Ms. Leilani Kwon, who was arrested at her place of business on the 18th of February, that she had been documented associating with known gang members and has tattoos bearing the numbers 213 associated with the Deckerside 213 gang. It appears this association with Deckerside 213 has carried over to the rest of the community, resulting in photos being taken of individuals and according to Mrs. Wu, the profiling of anyone sporting a tattoo being considered a gang member. A press conference took place recently at the Hall of Justice where members of the community, unhappy with the actions of the LSSD, arrived wearing 'Stop Asian Hate' pins and demanded answers that were not provided at the time. Following the event, I was invited to a community barbecue due to happen on the 3rd of March (the following evening) at 8PM. Operation Long Reach Above: A video reel of the events of the 3rd of March 2023 ((All plates are blurred on cars)) Yesterday on the 3rd of March, LSSD's involvement in the area of Little Seoul escalated with the introduction of a new initiative called Operation Long Reach. I arrived on scene thirty minutes early and observed the community barbecue being set up. Mrs. Wu and her husband Mr. Wu were present, as well as Sen Tsujihara who opened the Asian Community Centre in Little Seoul with an almost identical cookout event on the 9th of February. Attendees were already nervous after recent events but the event continued as normal. Only a small number of individuals were initially in attendance before the official start of the event. At around 7:40PM an LSSD helicopter appeared over the roof of the community center and observed the gathering before disappearing again. An LSSD cruiser parked in a nearby gas station and observed the event for a while. After the event's official start, members of the community and visitors started to filter in, including Republican Senator Rossi who had attended the original opening of the Community Centre on the 9th of February. A cruiser was spotted driving by the community center containing four deputies, it spun about and went back the other way. Shortly after this, the helicopter returned and hovered over the proceedings. A long convoy of armored vehicles, cruisers and LSSD coaches arrived some time after. Snipers were spotted heading up to high points during this time while LSSD's forces assembled for briefing in the parking lot behind the Weazel News HQ in Little Seoul. The LSSD, during their briefing, organized three squads. One would move directly towards the parking lot to hold the line and observe, two would hold off by the store to the north of the lot while three was ordered to head south down Palomino before cutting up north if squad one needed help. The community members in attendance were angry but stood together to prove they were not a threat, returning to their celebrations. Some felt that the LSSD were trying to provoke a violent response by being armed. Many had batons ready and hands on their holsters while at least two snipers and two spotters were seen aiming their guns down at the crowds from early on. The continued peaceful celebration was overlooked by the large wall of deputies, some of which moved up to 'take' the balcony and block it off. Other groups were seen on the overpass pulling over individuals on the highway in large groups. Early on in this operation, media were alerted to 'protests' taking place in the Little Seoul area. Some community members tried to reason with the LSSD or offer them peace offerings of food, others stood with their hands up asking them not to shoot. Nearby deputies were heard speaking after over an hour of the LSSD standing watching the community event. Some discussed wanting Senator Rossi to leave, while another said "In hindsight, Deputies? This was probably some inaccurate intelligence." Another man was caught saying "We should either leave or move up, L-T" Other comments captured before the final approach were as follows "We need that permit..." "They got it." "They have a permit apparently." at this point shots were heard and the LSSD was quick to declare 'Shots!' The shots themselves were somewhere behind the community center, distant. Journalists, including myself, rushed behind the building but found no shooter, no bodies and no blood. However the shots heard were used to move in for the final approach, the megaphone nearby announced "This is Lieutenant Thomas Geisler with the Los Santos Sheriff's Department. We're deeming this a public safety hazard due to the shots fired in the area. It's time to go home for the safety of yourselves and our deputies." and shortly after another announcement "This is Lieutenant Geisler with the Los Santos Sheriff's Department. Please remove yourselves from the balcony and go home" At this point I was surrounded on the bench I had been using to film and yelled at to move. I moved but was recognized by some of the LSSD present. One deputy could be overheard saying that he was happy the community had "bent over" instead of "trying anything too bad", others were seen collecting food and 'Stop Asian Hate' shirts left behind as community members retreated into the building and were dispersed from their event. With the operation over, the LSSD returned to the parking lot of Weazel News HQ to debrief where they were presented with pins to congratulate them on a successful operation. Many presented their chests to receive their pins with pride, while others appeared to be in low spirits, even ashamed. It appeared that, from a distance, opinions of the operation within the LSSD were varied. I was able to speak to Lieutenant Ray Mulligan who was helpful in allowing media to remain active on the scene during the operation. I presented some questions to him immediately following debriefing while LSSD left the scene. He was also able to show me the pins presented to deputies following the operation. Stone: Can I ask a bit about the shiny uh, coins or pins I just saw handed out? Curious. Awards for a successful operation? Mulligan: Oh, these? It's a department tradition, we usually hand these out after every operation. Stone: Quite an impressive coin. Mulligan: It's not an award, like I said, it's a tradition within the department. Well, in every law enforcement agency actually. Stone: I see. Did that conclude operation long reach? Or is it ongoing? Mulligan: That's all for today. Stone: Am I allowed to ask who's heading this? Was it Bubsy? Mulligan: No, myself, Lieutenant Geisler and Sergeant Aleman. Stone: Geisler? hm. Okay... I'm at least familiar with Geisler. And what was the overall intention of today's operation? Mulligan: We received reports of a potential civil unrest, so we mobilized three station platoons to curb violence and protect the local shops and businesses from looters. You know how these things go. But the main objective was to contain, isolate, and hold key locations. Stone: I see... I overheard word of bad intelligence. Do you think the reports were incorrect, having arrived? Mulligan: I wouldn't call it bad, our intelligence is as serious as a heart attack, the protest was overall unlawful. That's all I can say. Stone: And what protest was that? Mulligan: That n' the fact that there were people shooting— Anti-Asian hate protest. Stone: I see. Mulligan: Is that it, Stone? I gotta head back to the station. Stone: Do you have any comments on the actions of a few nights prior in which multiple arrests were made and an elderly woman was arrested? Mulligan: If I recall right, the elderly woman was consorting with known criminals and documented gang members. I don't know much about the operation itself since it was initiated by Operation Safe Streets. Stone: I see. Is long reach a new and separate initiative then? Mulligan: Not really, it's just the name of the operation and department's mobilization in response. Stone: I see. And last of all, was Senator Rossi's presence at the community barbecue a hinderance to the operation? Mulligan: Not at all. Stone: I see...before you depart, anything more to say to the people of Little Seoul regarding these operations? Mulligan: Well, when I say this, I speak for my department as well, we're not anti-Asian or anything of such. Gangs and organized crime groups are deeply rooted within their community, we'll do our best to work hand-in-hand with the local populace to protect and root out the gangs that plague the Little Seoul area. Stone: I see, and you've had meetings with the Little Seoul community, I assume? To work hand-in-hand with- [I was interrupted] Mulligan: I can't speak on that, I lead a tactical bureau, not a community outreach team. Sae Jin: You mentioned charges against one of the event organizers, unrelated to the event itself, a female. I overheard this while you were speaking with them. Is that correct or did I mis-hear? Mulligan: I honestly do not recall, ma'am. Initiatives and operations within the Little Seoul area appear to be ongoing. Anger and alienation within the community seems to only be growing and while the community did comply peacefully with the LSSD's orders on this occasion, anger is building with every operation. Today, on the 4th of of March, the LSSD posted on Facebrowser that they had arrived on scene to "ensure the peace was preserved" and that people were "kept safe for the 'Stop Asian Hate' protest within incorporated Little Seoul" which to some may seem like a drastic reframing of the real events that occurred. Some have spoken up about the events of the previous night on Facebrowser as well. Does the LSSD pose the risk of creating the very monster they claim to be combatting, or are these necessary measures in tackling gang violence? Los Santos Insider will continue to follow developments as they emerge and do its best to present all evidence available.
