Conservative Activists Clean Out 50 Tons of Trash from L.A. Homeless Camp: Before and After Videos
CNSNews ^ | September 23, 2019 | Craig Bannister

Conservative activist Scott Presler mobilized 200 volunteers to remove 50 tons of trash from a homeless camp in Los Angeles, California on Saturday.

Presler’s volunteers removed more than five tons of waste per hour over a nine-hour span – and did so without any assistance from the government.

On Saturday morning, Presler posted Twitter videos of the ground of the homeless camp covered in waste, before cleanup efforts began around 9a.m., which he followed with videos showing his group’s progress – and the end result.

It’s almost 9 a.m. & we’re removing waste from a homeless camp in Los Angeles.

“Why is an outsider from Northern Virginia here & not California elected leadership?” Presler asked in one tweet. In another, he declared the successful cleanup effort one of his proudest moments.

This is one of the proudest moments of my life.

Presler has led similar cleanup efforts in other cities, including Baltimore, Maryland and Newark, New Jersey, according to The Daily Wire.

I could think of countless better ways to use one’s time than cleaning up after bums & mental cases.

But it is good PR. Hundreds of politicians can’t do shit but one conservative can gather a bunch of friends and take care of business. It’s a “model” the Rats may want to worry about.

Let it lay there. Fester. Let it spread plague. Maybe then the Marxists will do something. Or not.

Better these folks should register new pro-Trump voters than sweep up after drug addicts & nuts. Unfortunately their effort will go unnoticed and change nothing.

We noticed. I noticed the “It’s time to roll up our sleeves and DO something” right away.

"But it is good PR."

Only among the choir. The fifth-column leftist media will ignore it or twist it into their own propaganda.

Like I say, what is needed is happening. People are waking up to the idea that it is time to get off the sofa and DO something. A very dangerous seed for Rats to let get planted.

The power of the Brown Shirt Media is Limited to those foolish enough to believe them. Which is in low single digits.

But real people, one at a time, do see reality and compare it to what they are being told. The change doesn’t happen wholesale, it happens retail. That’s how I finally understood what was being done to me during the Reagan years—I had been raised a Liberal Democrat (in Massachusetts? How did that happen?), then I watched what the media and the Dems kept telling me was going to happen, and seeing it not happen, and watching what Reagan said was going to happen, and what people like Rush said would happen, and seeing it happen, and Light Dawned on Marble Head at last.
And I’ve never looked back.
Thank God.
