Well, this is what happens when we have to be liberal about homeless matters. Being liberal means we can’t move them out of any place they set up camp. Walmart management is likely afraid to say or do anything because they would be perceived as bashing the homeless. We have to just put up with it, because we as a society don’t have the will to do anything about these people. We are unable to say they can’t camp there.
If it gets bad enough that shoppers avoid that Walmart, and don’t go there anymore, then what?
Will Walmart just accept such a situation?
It’ll continue until the state no longer gets its tax money from businesses that have closed down because of vagrants harassing customers.
Don’t shop there
Eventually, problem solved
Shame on WalMart!
They allow people to camp out in their parking lot?
That seems oddly stupid.
I love shopping on Amazon. My new alternator for my Z71 arrives tomorrow.
Our Walmart has these people at every parking lot entrance with their ‘Homeless Vet’ signs...............
You get what you (or enough of your neighbors) vote for...
I’ve never been to CA except around ‘74 when I flew in en route to HI. Therefore I don’t know how beautiful it is, how nice the weather. Regardless, I do not want to live there or even visit. It sounds like a terrible place.
ALL WalMart’s stuff is from China.
WalMart is very strongly aiding in unemployment, even if many of these people are dedicated scum-bags.
When people come to buy goods dumped on the recklessly open US market by people who harvest organs from political enemies..?
Yes, they SHOULD see big-bellied, meth-smoking scum-bags from hell.
They SHOULD see it.
Liberals continue to take stupid to a whole new level.
And think of all the theft and shoplifting that must take place there. Walmart doesn’t detain shoplifters.
Well I guess the shoppers better start voting in the right people
How can I counterpunch this situation with the least amount of stress?
Think.
Why can police do nothing? Is it the law in CA that people can just plop down a tent and live where they damn well please? What kind of goofy state is that? No private property allowed?
last time I was in San Diego, there was a huge homeless encampment in Mission Valley, right along the San Diego River. There were a couple malls nearby, so it was a perfect place for pitching tents near the woods, and then panhandling at the mall by day.
I always make eye contact with beggars and let them know I see them but am not interested in them. The worst thing to do is try to avoid eye contact. That tells the bum you are feeling guilty about their plight. that's what my wife does. She will be sitting in her car and looking staight ahead as if she has blinders on. I always look at them, almost staring at them. That way they know I made the choice to not give a shit.
And in some cases, I do give a shit and give them a buck if I have any loose bills on me.
CA law cares more for filthy hostile bums than for decent productive people. If you vote for lawmakers who think this way, vote different; otherwise, I'm sorry to say your best option may be to leave.
