I vote he next one be in Maxine Waters neighborhood.
America is turning into a sh*thole and half the country seems to be fine with that.
Leprosy!
It’s crawling all over me.
There goes my eyeball
Into my highball.......
Anyone know the rest of the song?
Super. An economical solution is to pack all the homeless in L.A. onto tramp freighters and ship them off to the leper colony on one of the Hawaiian islands. Molokai, I think is the one. If there’s an active volcano nearby, that’s a bonus. Nature’s crematorium.
Leprosy and Tuberculosis are both Mycobacterium. Slow growing and thus with slow treatment, best spread in enclosed conditions with exposure lasting weeks or more.
And with exposure, while you might harbor the bacteria, they might not become the full blown disease for years or decades. Antibiotic treatment with just exposure might take a year to eliminate it; with the disease, different antibiotics and a year and a half or more.
I remember seeing warnings about bubonic plague in New Mexico forty years ago. They have had cases more recently, too.
Never heard of it but sounds interesting .
In the news: two cases of Pneumonic Plague detected near Beijing which were transported to an isolation facility at an undisclosed location.
The vector for transmission is fleas hosted on rodents, such as the infestation this past summer within the city of Los Angeles. Waiting for that shoe to drop before Leprosy.
Really?
Schiff’s office is located at leprosy ground zero?
Gee, it sure would be too ba-
Nah, nevermind...
Have you been to the motor vehicle bureau? It’s like a leper colony down there.
This just happened I kid you not two blocks away from his office:

Because leprosy has such a long incubation period (2-10 years and as long as 20 years for actual symptoms) we could already have an epidemic in the LA homeless population that will go unnoticed for another decade.
Junkies have all sorts of lesions, especially if they do meth. Nobody is going to think leprosy unless it shows up in the long term clean and sober population or the “helping” professionals.
Beyond gross.
We sang it this way —
Leprosy, Oh my Gosh I’ve got Leprosy
My eyeball, fell into my Highball
Leprosy, Oh my Gosh I’ve got Leprosy
My ear, fell into my beer
Leprosy, Oh my Gosh I’ve got Leprosy
My nose, fell into the hose
Leprosy, Oh my gosh I’ve got Leprosy
My spine, fell into my wine
... make up whatever rhymes, usually some sort of drink
Is that Leper Colony still operating in Carville, La. As in James Carville’s family.
The homeless population is a function of social programs. Yes, I said that! One must ask how in the hell do they have money to buy food if not given? It is given via social programs.
If one looks back at the great depression and the dust bowl of the 20s and 30s we had many that were in far more destitution than the so called homeless today.
The homeless are mostly mentally ill and drug and alcohol addicted. They do need help if they are salvageable, most are not. Those that need help and want help should be helped. The others should be (and this is harsh) just left to die and not on our streets. Oddly those that face this harsh reality and they are few, might actually try to save themselves via most vast help that is available. It is that simple.
A moral societies first rule is to preserve that society and not destroy itself.
That guy is a real reptile. He should marry George Conway.
Cackle cackle...
This is, however, one symptom of cholera.
God, I wish a quake would imitate leprosy and crack the coast off the continent out there. Then mine the waterway and line the coast with battery guns on the American side.
