I Went Back To California. My Home Town Looks Like A War Zone

San Bernardino, once a blue-collar town with a solid middle class, has become the poorest and most dangerous city in California. I see a lot of the comments from people who say - you spend a lot of time driving around, showing everyone rundown America. Where are you from? Why don’t you pick on YOUR home town.

[DallasBiff]

First of all this is not click bait. This video shows the degradation of San Bernadino, which was once a prosperous middle class town.

My depression, greatest generation era parents are rolling in their graves, to see what this country has become.

Also this video is about an hour long, and it is funny when the narrator brings in one of his old college buddies at the 30 minute mark, the dude is Spicoli's brother, he calls homeless people neo-gatherer's.

This guy’s videos are great.

Horribly sad, but important.

Same with charliebo313 on youtube......goes all over videoing da hoods of America....the convenience store footage is especially interesting.

It’s obvious that blacks hate middle easterners

That is depressing. My uncle was based at Norton AFB in San Bernadino. He lived with his family in Redlands. We went to see them in 1970 and it was a very cool place then. Lots of families and small businesses.

Thanks for posting, will watch it later.

There has been news lately and radio interviews about how San Berdo has literally turned into a raging sh$thole of crime, human debris, homeless,... and I drove thru a few weeks ago. It has really gone downhill, but hey come to the San Fernando Valley sometime, it aint much better

She lives in Mojave in a Winnebago
His name is Bobby, he looks like a potato

She’s in love with a boy
From the rodeo
Who pulls the rope on the chute
When they let those suckers go
(Yeah-hey! Suckers!)

He got slobberin’ drunk at the Palomino
They give him thirty days in San Ber’dino

Well there’s forty-four men
Stashed away in Tank “C”
An’ there’s only one shower
But it don’t apply to Bobby

You may think they’re
Dumb an’ lonely
But you’re wrong
‘Cause their love is strong
Stacked-up hair
An’ a cheap little ring
They don’t care
‘Cause it don’t mean a thing

Looka there...
They don’t care

Best-est way that
They can feel-o
Out on the highway
Rollin’ a wheel-o
He’s her Tootsie
She’s for real-o
Trailer park heaven
It’s a real good deal-o
Real good deal-o
Real good deal-o
Real good deal-o
Real good deal-o

The rest of their lives
In San Ber’dino
Gonna spend the rest of their lives
In San Ber’dino
Gonna spend the rest of their lives
Down in San Ber’dino
Come on with me
Come on with me
Come on with me
Down in San Ber’dino
Just 60 miles, 60 miles
Down the San Ber’dino freeway
They got some dark green air
An’ you can choke all day
That’s right!
Gonna spend the rest of their lives
Rest of their lives
Rest of their lives

Say now,
Ain’t talkin’ ‘bout Fontana
Ain’t talkin’ ‘bout uh uh
Ain’t talkin’ ‘bout uh uh
Ain’t talkin’ ‘bout uh uh
Ain’t talkin’ ‘bout the Redlands, no no
ZULCH is the auto works
I’m tellin’ you
That’s where they take
All the cars that they hurt
Come on and let’s all go down to San Ber’dino
Ooo-ooo

Let’s-a go down down down
Down in San Ber’dino
Wouldja b’lieve it
Wouldja b’lieve it now, come on
San Ber’dino
San Ber’dino
San Ber’dino
(Got to call it)
San Ber’dino
(C’mere)
San Ber’dino
San Ber’dino
San Ber’dino
San Ber’dino
(Oh, God, they all stay there)
The rest of their lives
In San Ber’dino

Oh Bobby, I’m sorry you got a head like a potato
I really am
(Ketchup!)

[Bullish]

The whole damn state is going to end up blighted except of course, the coastal areas where the rich elites live. Those same rich elites are the ones responsible for putting the worst types of people into political power. We’re now seeing the results of their idiocy.

I hope the rest of the country is paying attention to what will happen to them if they don’t wise up and vote out the marxist liberals.

"It’s obvious that blacks hate middle easterners"

They hate Asians too.

Oh, and whitey as well...in case anyone was wondering.

San Bernardino

I wonder what has happened to my many California places in the decades since I left the state. Wherever I lived, I went on nighttime walks. What would happen if I now tried to go on a typical San Francisco walk, up to Coit Tower? Would my shoes get punctured with needles and covered with sh*t? Would I get mugged?

What a waste.

[ifinnegan]

What’s that song?

[familyop]

Because of the drugs, regulations against building and incoming equatorial and Asian hordes buying up real estate, neighborhoods are decaying all over the country.

Santa Monica at the beach is horrible.

The elite have private beaches.

[ifinnegan]

This guy has videos of all over the country.

This is everywhere.

That ain't gonna save them:

San Bernardino has been a ShThOlE for 20 years easy. LA Times finally did a story on it in 2015 calling it a "Broken City". https://graphics.latimes.com/san-bernardino/

After I moved my family to Idaho, I had another engagement in San Diego. My parents provided a room for a week while I arranged lodging on the contract. The sirens and gunshots all night were outrageous. Drug deals done at the foot of their driveway. Gang graffiti on the pretty rose tinted brick wall at the edge of the property/sidewalk. It was a far cry from the pretty little city of Chula Vista where I grew up in the late 60s/early 70s. No tears shed when my mom decided to sell the house we had owned since 1963 and move to Rancho San Diego in 2005.
