“Yep. The most important thing we should take from this [...] is that there is are a couple of typos is in the report.”


Bug off.

I’ve often wished FR had a mute feature. It would come in handy in some instances.

I went to San Diego last year after several years away. I was shocked at the homeless problem there. When I walked from my hotel to the restaurant district, I counted 10-15 homeless people per block.

Disgraceful…

But how did the Padres do, Scott?

In 1981, I went to a conference in San Diego that met in a hotel near the waterfront. The area was run down, with bars, liquor stores, junk shops and tattoo parlors predominating. Fifteen years later, when the GOP National Convention came to town, the area had been transformed into the fancy, upscale Gas Lamp District. I haven’t been there since 2008, but I imagine it’s probably not so upscale and fancy anymore.

Even San Francisco was a pretty good place as late as the 80’s.

LIBERALS TRULY DO DESTROY EVERYTHING.

Ha Ha…I went to Monday’s game where Wacha took a no hitter into the 8th…their only good day against the Royals.

Sadly, it makes sense, if you were a bum, would you rather be in San Diego or Philadelphia? Sunny and 72 all year.

I’m a mid-tribber who thinks the seven-year tribulation is already underway, and that such catastrophes are about to increase exponentially.

Whether or not the A’s moving to Vegas triggers the Great Tribulation will become evident in due course.

I live in West Texas. We have them here under the bridges. Hope the summer heat sorts them out.

Agreed; it is allowed, as it breaks the spirit of a healthy community. I live in CA, in a city with some of the most beautiful and peaceful parks in the U.S. They’re overrun with vagrants and their refuse (garbage, needles, feces, tents, tarps, etc.) and vicious dogs. Nearly all those ‘camping’ are severely ill, both mentally and physically, and drug use is rampant. These people need institutional help, and it is cruel to leave them as they are to defend for themselves in a very harsh world. Doesn’t seem very humane or civilized. Traditional family life would cure most of this, but it would take generations to turn the tide.

Thank you for taking the time to write this report. I am not a pessimist per se, however I am a realist. It will take an act of divine intervention to return this country to law and order. The destroyers’ agenda is to erase man’s innate decency and virtue. The evil plan has been in place for decades; to date the implantation of that plan has been successful. You witnessed this on the streets of San Diego.

The adversary owns the media, the court system, the military, the universities, the public school system, the libraries, the federal government and the “mainstream” churches.

I have the same good situation in my small town in CT.

Cold winters and limited infrastructure drives away anyone who is not self-reliant.

As another poster said—if I were a bum I would move to CA.

I also lived in SD Point Loma a long time ago, 1982, and have wanted to go back for a visit. But as our country fills up with invaders the middle class are being pushed down and the lower class into the streets. The fed has printed up all the money and taken over even the local governments with COVID FUN BUCKS.

The worst part is that Americans are helping these invaders right down to bus drivers and hotel staffers. If we all refused to provide services to people that are invading out country I would be hopeful but I see no sign of an end to the white busses and plane loads of invaders being transported from the border to the interior of the US.

True. Mentally ill students also need to be removed from public schools.

My father in law just returned from Barcelona - the addicts were living in tent cities under overpasses as well.

Yes and most of those “homeless veterans” are druggies as well.

Hate to say this but I’ve encountered many of these migrants in NJ and NY and they are preferable to the native druggie “homeless” and the welfare dependent project and section 8 dwellers, and I say this a a strict restrictionist on LEGAL immigration as well.
