As a resident of Huntington Beach, Fashion Island was a regular shopping area for me.

Lovely shops and restaurants. Nice people.

Sorry your 10 visits were not so pleasant.

You have admitted to be a woman and to shopping there a lot so, as a local, have you had plastic surgery yet?

Just trying to see if my “broad brush” is inaccurate.

Horrible, vicious, unseemly comment - the couple were tourists from Australia.

Really sick of idiots popping off creepy stuff on this forum.

Goblins travel outside their customary lair to raid

Like Madison and Brandon suffer similar intrusions time to time

Sorry not sorry. The Australians chose poorly when they decided to visit Mexifornia. I’ll take the opinions of Mexifornians seriously after they fix Mexifornia.

There are many beautiful small cities in the Midwest and South that are safe, maybe they should be visiting there instead.

But the local news is filled with stories of all the illegal fireworks busts cops have made. (Never mind all the rampant robberies and murders.)

And this area where the crime happened, used to be considered a fairly nice, safe place to visit in California.

But the Democrats took over the entire state and wrecked it. Every area is dealing with problems now.

Keep voting Democrat California. 🙄

There is always more pressure on women in affluent areas to maintain proper body weight and other measures some of which are extreme
Like north Miami Beach or Scottsdale

But as you and others have pointed out that has zero to do with yet another white woman brutally murdered in America by black savages of probably 75 IQ who are nowadays fostered by the culture that whites have it coming

These people (some too damn many) are raised by all they see to feel this way

I grew up like vetvetdoug in an area and time when racism was quite real and yes blacks died at white hands over politics

Ground zero

But those blacks had none of the resentment and hatred you see from blacks today

Because I think they :

Were more God fearing

And Mississippi at least they knew whites well and knew while most whites eschewed interracial coupling of their daughters they certainly didn’t wish brutality against uppity blacks

And 1960s blacks down south hadn’t been polluted by culture and poor leadership

Now all bets are off

Whites may not say it out loud by at least a slight majority admit what time it is

It’s ugly

Blacks even back then misbehaved more and had more illegitimacy but way below today

At least to me then it appeared 90% of blacks were positive contributions

You have a foul brain - and blissfully unaware of the pollution you cause to the reputation of the Freerepublic and the conservative movement.
