The south or the border culture of violence brought to you by the lack of border security.
This is what happens when you glorify ‘gangsta’ culture. I am SO glad I moved away from southern CA in the late 70s.
Like Westwood Village, Deep Ellum in Dallas is also dying. Too many beatings and robberies. I have no desire to bring my wife there on one of our date nights, particularly since Texas will not allow me to conceal carry in a bar.
the border is the safest it has ever been
Get this... I've been a member of my local art museum for years. I usually attend several exhibits a year. About 2-3 years ago, the museum got a new curator. About a year after the new curator arrived, (which is approximately how long it takes for the new curator's acquisitions and exhibits to be displayed), I started noticing things were changing. Graffiti hanging in the "postmodern art" wing. An exhibit of Mexican gang culture, starring low-rider cars and explanations of why they wear their pants sagged down around their knees. (As if I cared.) Exhibits featuring current "Latino" artists (and 90% of their work is focused on the LA gang culture.) Mexico has a vast and lively art culture. So much of the work is really beautiful. This sh@t is not. I don't want to look at it.
Just the other day, I learned that the art curator has now told the Cowboy Artists that they need to take their work elsewhere. I am dead serious. An art museum in Phoenix has just told the Cowboy Artists Guild (who put on a huge exhibit every October which is wildly popular) that they are no longer welcome. This will be the end of my membership and they will receive a long letter explaining why I will not renew this year.
Sorry to say it, but imho California has been lost, at least the major metropolitan areas. SUCH a shame. Were I you, I wouldn’t even do the museum the favor of explaining why you are not renewing your membership. The museum won’t care.
This is the legacy of illegal immigration combined with the “Great Society” from the mid-1960s. Kids raised in fatherless households, combined with an entrenched ethnic group that wants to avoid any contact with authority and avoids assimilation as a result, creates an atmosphere ripe for criminal gangs.
Toss in the liberal chic attitude of blaming everything except the perpetrator, and you’ve got a disaster. Not only for Brian Stow, but for every law abiding citizen who is now held captive by their own fear.
Even Disneyland isn’t immune to this brash attitude. I’ve personally seen large Hispanic groups intimidate and push their way to the front of lines, as the rest of the guests stare in slack-jawed amazement, not quite believing what they’re seeing.
Is nothing sacred? C’mon, Disneyland?!
Perhaps they will care if I post it to their Facebook page for all to see. Until they delete it.
Many on the left feel we owe it to the latinos to give California and Arizona land back to them. They feel we owe them that too. Pure bullchit but that is how these morons think. We are getting what we do not deserve....
They sure won't admit it. During the pre-game show on the Dodgers radio broadcast last night they discussed the attack and blamed it on fans drinking beer. No mention whatsoever of Latino gangs.

If Disneyland were to properly target this trash, yes RACIAL PROFILING is what is most efficient, fair and necessary, they would be hammered by every scum trial lawyer and government agency in SoCal.
Dunphy is right on. I grew up in Northern California, a huge Oakland A’s fan. Fled to Nevada to get away from the “librul paradise”. I used to go back home to catch a few games each year. That stopped about five years ago. Like Dunphy I’m a cop with over 20 years on. I did 7 of those years in our gang unit. I stopped going to A’s games when I witnessed the absolutely appalling behavior of young black and latino and yes even some white males in the stands. It didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that bringing my son to a game would require a whole lot of explaining on my part.
Now there’s a good idea!
;-)
I used to go to Deep Ellum a lot in the 90’s. It wasn’t so bad back then. Mostly hipsters. Guess they hang out on Lower Greenville now.
The West End was a bit more family friendly, but I don’t know what it’s like now. I prefer North Dallas, though. Restaurant Row on Beltline in Addison is an ok place to get out.
I live in LA County now. Can’t pack at all. Don’t go out much anyway, so not a big deal, and when I do go out, it’s in a sleepy beach community where the only potential violence is a cat fight between a couple of gay lovers. Nothing I can’t handle.
The Dodgers belong in Brooklyn.
I’ve never seen that at Disney, but it is very common at Magic Mountain. You couldn’t pay me to go there.
What a great idea!
One of the Communist Goals compiled by the KGB over sixty years ago was to replace traditional art with meaningless “symbolism” as displayed by the paintings of Communist Salvador Dali, and shapeless, meaningless sculpture of beams and points, etc., and non-rhyming, vacuous poetry ala Toni Morrison, Bill Clinton’s poet laureate. Of course, all this non-art was widely acclaimed by the Leftist media and bought for millions by the upscale Useful Idiots.
The purpose is to distort and corrupt our cultural history and its strength. What you are seeing now is simply a continuation of that. There is also an element of another Leftist tactic - create chaos and violence in order to engender fear and a public outcry for a larger government presence in our lives. That is also why you are discouraged from protecting yourself but to instead call the police.
