Watch the video of the homeless encampments infested with big rats at the link on X.

Yeah. DemonicRATS.

Bass, the Commie, is to be held responsible.

[Texas Eagle]

Drew Carey’s kind of town.

Purposefully trying to create an environment whereas the hantavirus causes the Mayoral election to be suspended is what appears to be occurring in LA with such activity as mentioned in the OP article.

Homeless people gotta eat too, you know.

If one of them were smart, he'd be like that character in James Clavell's novel, "King Rat" and make a living off of this.

Quite eatable they are..

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

So? Food on the “hoof”.

[eyeamok]

It’s the democrat way of life

To be fair, the police didn’t bring the rats. The behavior of the residents attracts the rats.

[ChildOfThe60s]

Yes, the city’s responsible for this. But it’s unclear how the LAPD is actually funding it according to the headline

[kawhill]

The rat in H.P. Lovecraft’s “The Dreams in the Witch House” is named Brown Jenkin.

Lovecraft Wiki
Serving as the familiar to the witch Keziah Mason, the creature is famously described in the story as having a highly distinct, mocking, human-like face.

[Scrambler Bob]

The Los Angeles Police Department are funding homeless encampments completely crawling with rats
= = =

Oh, it wasn’t Police Department buildings???

[ViLaLuz]

I believe it’s “finding,” not “funding.”

[Morgana]

Regular rats or river rats?

[VanShuyten]

“ Democrats are literally bringing back medieval diseases”

Let’s see. What do you get when you have already unhealthy people packed into small, unhygienic spaces, and rats, and a nearby source of endemic Yersinia pestis?

The Black Death, of course.
That will go medieval on LA.

[lastchance]

Is the headline supposed to read “The Los Angeles Police Department are FINDING homeless encampments...”?

[GingisK]

True, probably aren’t any conservatives in those places.

[Organic Panic]

It is cruel but... Wall off the encampments and let nature take its course. These are junkies and want to live this way. Even at my brokest lowest points in life I could find someone to let me couch surf until I got a paycheck. These street people have ruined relationships with anyone that can help and want the drugs more than the help. I have no more sympathy after seeing the camps out where I live now. Filthy destructive thieves.
