There are a lot of rats in LA, and, NO, for once we don’t mean the politicians although many qualify. We mean the little furry creatures who live in squalor and spread diseases. Infestations of rats are seen in major cities and elsewhere, and when garbage is left to rot in homeless areas, they become a more serious threat to life.
The latest issue? Typhus.
A veteran Los Angeles City Hall official caught the disease that began in Skid Row but has spread to office buildings, restaurants, and other mainstream areas. For months, LA County public health officials have said typhus is mainly hitting the homeless population, but it’s past that now.
Way past that, in fact. The rats carry fleas, which hop off in buildings, there to infect the liberal bureaucrats. Now it's a problem. No big deal when it was localized around the bum camps, but by gosh when bureaucrats are coming down with typhus in their offices and meeting rooms, something needs to be done!
