Cher: Los Angeles ‘Can’t Take Care of Its Own, How Can It Take Care of’ More Immigrants
Breitbart ^ | 4-15-2019 | John Binder

Pop icon Cher said Sunday that Los Angeles, California, “can’t take care of its own” residents, much less newly arrived illegal and legal immigrants.

Cher said she failed to understand how the city of Los Angeles in the sanctuary state of California could afford to admit and take care of any more immigrants when city officials have failed to care for homeless, veterans, and poverty-stricken Americans.

“I Understand Helping struggling Immigrants,but MY CITY (Los Angeles) ISNT TAKING CARE OF ITS OWN.WHAT ABOUT THE 50,000+Citizens WHO LIVE ON THE STREETS.PPL WHO LIVE BELOW POVERTY LINE,& HUNGRY? If My State Can’t Take Care of Its Own(Many Are VETS)How Can it Take Care Of More,” Cher said.

The post came after President Trump threatened to bus border crossers and illegal aliens into sanctuary cities and states, like California, if the country’s asylum laws were not changed. White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders confirmed that the White House is considering the plan.

In response, Democrat mayors across the country — like New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and Oakland, California Mayor Libby Schaaf — have welcomed bringing illegal aliens and border crossers to their cities.

While left-wing mayors say they will continue to admit any and all illegal and legal immigrants, Los Angeles is home to the second largest homeless population in the country, second to only New York City. About 50,000 residents of Los Angeles are homeless and about 7.5 percent of California’s American Veteran population is homeless.

As the city remains crippled by homelessness and skyrocketing housing costs, Los Angeles metro area is also home to the second largest illegal alien population — with nearly a million illegal aliens living in the region...

What a racist hurtful person, eh?
(It's okay for the government to force them to come live with me but not Cher)

Oh wait:

We Shouldn’t Label Everyone Concerned About Illegal Immigration As Racists, Says … Barack Obama?

A brief moment of clarity from one of the chronically stupid. All this means is she’s tired of stepping in piles of poop. Which is a wonderful metaphor for liberalism.

She’s just proving what real people have believed for decades, i.e., that Hollywood people think that the world exists only where they live. Every other location is insignificant; we’re the little people and deserve to be inundated with illegal trash. (But not her.)

Obviously her taxes are too low if LA can’t take more illegals. She needs to stay on Lib-Loon message. LOL.

Cher could pitch in and join digging the mile long ditch needed to accommodate all of the extra human waste.

The longer I take calls and reservations from SoCal, the happier I am that I had lengthy visits to California when I was a kid in the 1970’s.

My parents nearly shipped me there to live with grandparents to take advantage of the outstanding schools in those days, but couldn’t pull the trigger.

My grandparents wouldn’t recognize their beautiful Northridge these days. There isn’t an inch of that place that isn’t El Norte right now, even in the valley.

Ditto for San Francisco and the entire Peninsula down to San Jose. Let Facebook, Google, YouTube, Twitter, et al get a taste of “unfettered illegal immigration” up close and personal.

A couple of years ago, on our way back to the Bay Area from the Long Beach Grand Prix with a friend who was a retired LAPD cop, we stopped in The Valley to get a burger at a place he knew about from his days as a cop. When we exited our car, he remarked that he wished that he had his gun with him.

It's not whether LA *could* take care of the illegals, it's whether they *should*.
Are these people really fleeing political persecution or (admittedly) really crappy economical situations in their come countries.
How many are criminals?
How may are sponsored by US-hostile organizations (Soros and others)?
