Hearing the performative compassion of San Francisco‘s politicians and the results: streets covered in human shit, crazed heroin zombies colonizing them, a pathetic protest culture pushing zoning legislation that extracts rents from everyone; one is reminded of this Kipling poem: http://www.kiplingsociety.co.uk/poems_copybook.htm
I recently moved to Encino, which has its issues but our homeless encampment is hidden down by the dam. When I lived in Beverly Grove, I had people sleeping on my sidewalk, and clusters of people setting up camp in the alleyways 100 yards from my house.
What was remarkable was the volume of trash that accumulated, along with broken glass and hypodermic needles. It was absolutely jaw dropping.
It’s truly not compassionate to let people live on the steets. The city and the state must expand conservatorship and start getting these people the help they need.
I turned to my wife and said that this is how the new bubonic plague is going to start. Low and behold the video then cuts to talking about the medieval diseases mentioned in this article.
As far as I can tell, we don’t have any issues like this in Atlanta. What makes California towns so special? Is it the weather? The policies?
Whatever it is, it’s another reason I don’t want to live there.
