    Squatting in LA these days (2024 I mean)

    I know San Francisco (allegedly) still has Homes Not Jails, at least in theory; is there anything like this in LA, anything organised that one could join to find a Squat to occupy, maybe the Occupy Movement still, or what? Otherwise it's dangerous to go out on one's own, especially being female...

    Getting Inside?

    Found a good place to squat since my last one was found out. This time there's nobody to come check on the place. However my main issue is getting inside. There's two glass sliding doors and one window that would be optimal entry points, however I can't get them open with this method. Any advice?
