But you know, Denis, there's always a patrol car parked in front of the Israeli Consulate on Wilshire, and every time I've passed those two gigantic mansions on June Street that fly the Turkish flag, I've seen unmarked cars out front.
So maybe high value targets and individuals merit continued personal police protection. Or maybe the LAPD contracts out. I think that's what they do for film shoots.
