Angry Los Angeles Residents Demand Action Over City’s Growing Homeless Problem LA residents fed up with officials, demand change after homeless crisis spirals in city It’s the stale stench of liquor and human waste that hits you first. Then it’s visual — row after row of dirty tarp tents crammed together on the sidewalk next to piles of rotting trash and broken appliances. There are half-dressed, drugged-out shells of people wandering aimlessly in the middle of the street. Some curse at cars. Others just stare. There are fights, prostitution and rodent burrows. This is the fabled Skid Row in Los Angeles and it’s a disaster. Like several West Coast cities Fox News visited, Los Angeles is dealing with a homeless crisis. However, unlike the East Coast, LA can’t hide all of its homeless in shelters or low-income housing. Failed liberal policies coupled with decades of neglect and mismanagement have turned an old problem into a modern-day nightmare. Some fear the City of Angels is at the point of no return and are angry at elected officials who talk a big game but rarely deliver. “I don’t want to see them on camera anymore,” Marquesha Babers, who lived on Skid Row as a teenager, told Fox News. “I don’t want them to write any more articles about how much they care or how much they’re trying to change things. I want to see them do it.” There are parts of the city that look like a third world country or worse. What will it take for someone to do something about this? https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/20...ion-over-citys-growing-homeless-problem/What’s it gunna take? Well Duh.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

You get the government you deserve. It might be easier to get rid of some of these radical leftists if we had an honest, functioning press/media.

Maybe not, but if you use a big enough length of wood you can stun it some.

Makes you wonder when the simmering pot boils over. Not pretty.

Now that they have the problem, how could they fix it? I can't see any way a whole new R city government could fix it.

Simple fix? Water cannons, or maybe enforce local laws about loitering. Tracked vehicles would move them on down the road as well.
Or, if one is inclined to be "green", have some trucks drive by dropping off hornet nests.
Is a man made problem and most likely has a man made solution. Nature can help of course.

I suggest the same solution that I would like to see here, kick out all foreign workers and severely limit taxpayer funded aid to those without work.
Please note that this does not include LEGITIMATE pensioners...and I stress legitimate as I can point to more than a few "pensioners" here that are healthier than I am.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

Steve4102: Duh... its kalifornicationkopia dude! Did you expect something else? Sheesh. That schithole (kalifornicationkopia) is a lost cause and ain't comin back! Ignore it as best you can, it/they are not worth worrying about. They (kalifornicationkopians) are destroying their American heritage, their culture and their future - so be it.

They aren't going to vote themselves out of this. It's way too late for that.
Imagine a corporate oligarchy so effective, so advanced and fine tuned that its citizens still call it a democracy.

They destroyed their lands and future. That is what they want for America. Let them rot in their lands.

What they need to do is outlaw tarps. That'll solve it. Or Tarp control. Force people who buy tarps to go through a background check where they must provide proof of a private residence.
