LOS ANGELES, CA: A rising wave of homelessness is growing and spreading in the major Democrat controlled cities on the Left Coast. Spreading disease, drug addiction, and social disorder in its wake. From Seattle to San Francisco to Los Angeles the quality of life is plummeting. Democrat municipal and state authorities seem oblivious, placing the rights of the homeless above their duty to their citizens, taxpayers, and public safety.
More than 60,000 homeless people by official count are living on the streets of Los Angeles. That doesn’t include the surrounding municipalities and cities in Orange County. Actual estimates are much higher, and the homeless seem to be everywhere.
Seattle journalist Eric Johnson of ABC affiliate KOMO-TV shot this shocking footage as part of a series of documentary stories he has done. "Paradise Lost" is only 6 1/2 minutes long, but is distressingly clear Komo-TV knows the problem. TV Journalist Eric Johnson hosted an in-depth one hour documentary about the problem in Seattle which aired on ABC affiliate KOMO, appropriately named “Seattle is Dying”. It depicted a city in collapse, surrounded by a deluge of homeless in the midst of every conceivable public space.
In San Francisco, there is an open collapse of all decent norms. The public squalor isn’t just shocking. It is unconscionable. Legions of homeless defecating in the street. Needles are strewn throughout the city. A downtown that is unliveable.
Not exactly a poster boy for tourism. Or for the Democrat policies throughout California, and in Oregon and Washington that only exacerbate the problem.
It's so bad in San Francisco that they publish poop maps like the one above. And it's no better in Oregon's state capital, in the state's largest city (Portland) and elsewhere along the I-5 corridor. California governor Gavin Newsome, Oregon governor Kate Brown from Minnesota, and Washington governor Jay Inslee could stop worrying about climate change for just a minute and address the stinking cesspool their states are rapidly becoming. But they won't because they're all Democratics.
