"When is this going to stop?"

It will never stop. It will only get worse if we do not get up, get busy and make sure Donald J. Trump stays in office next year.

It is so [swear word deleted] disgusting here.

I used to think nothing of taking public transportation into the city (not LA). My wife would always tell me she washes her clothes immediately after using public transportation. I used to laugh at her. Not any more. Besides avoiding touching door-pulls, seat handles and hand-rails, I now immediately wash my clothes after taking the subway trains or going into stores and restaurants downtown. Plus I sometimes wear disposable gloves and face-masks. Too many filthy people roaming around with who knows what kind of diseases. I would avoid going downtown but it's necessary for medical needs for us and family. I changed my primary care to the suburbs, but my wife and others still need care in the city. Illegals are ruining everything they touch.

Typhus is only one problem. Wait until TB again becomes epidemic. Recently a single foreign student at a MN university had an active case of TB. The student was in this country legally, but slipped past routine TB testing. Thirty students test positive for 8 TB with seven active cases who could have spread the disease further. Imagine how TB could spread in the third world conditions in LA.

Could not agree more. The typhus doesn’t come from illegals, but apparently smallpox does, and many other diseases and social problems.

However, the 80% kids aren’t actually illegal - most were born here so with our stupid birthright, they are considered American.

80% of LAUSD kids are on the free breakfast and lunch program. 80% or so of LAUSD kids are Hispanic. But since you can’t have multi-race,anyone with any hispanic might Check that box, including my daughter who doesn’t speak Spanish but has that heritage.

And they want MORE mass transit.

Don’t they realize health is a priority? I’m not going to get typhus or sit in someone’s bodily fluids in my own car!

I agree.

I think the basis of Mexico’s inept governance is the MORDIDA. They think it is a small thing ... but until it is eliminated, Mexico will never improve.

So true! However, traffic is a nightmare getting in and out of the city, and parking is near non-existent or extremely expensive. So taking the subway or a bus is less stressful. But there's always the knowledge that filthy bums sit or sleep on the same seats in public transportation as you, transferring who knows what like fleas, crap, disease or as you say, bodily fluids to those seats!

Right, the unexpected result of illegal immigration of sick people.
Malaria is also making a return.

I drive a lot every day and I am far less stressed listening to podcasts or radio or audible books than I would be on public transport with all the germs, bodily fluids, dangers, and none of my snacks and stuff.

They haven’t vaccinated the general population for Smallpox since the late 70’s.
My last vaccination was in 1968, when I was getting ready with my WestPac orders to deploy to Viet Nam.
Smallpox was largely eradicated from the world in the 70’s but there were still some hotspots in Asia and Africa, perhaps some in South America.
Smallpox was considered an extinct disease in the 80’s, but there were still samples everywhere in labs around the world just waiting to be sold for bioweapons to the terrorists and dictators who could afford to buy them.
Smallpox today; in a population that has no herd immunity or resistance, and is no longer vaccinated would be a devastating disease that would kill millions, if not billions.
Smallpox, Malaria, and Tuberculosis are historically the most deadly diseases mankind has had to deal with in it’s history.
Throw in Cholera, Malaria, new types of Influenza, and some of the Hepatitis strains out there and it could be a frightening scenario.

What do most of these diseases have in common?
THEY ARE EPIDEMIC IN THIRD WORLD SHITHOLES!

Even in my smaller town tents and other encampments only last a few hours.

They don’t have to bring the mosquitoes with them, all they have to bring is the Malaria parasite in their blood.
We have plenty of mosquitoes in California that are able to pass the parasite on.
The estimated range of Aedes Aegypti and Aedes Albopictus in the United States fully takes in all of LA County and about 85 to 90% of the entire state.

Have fun with your Malaria and Yellow Fever.

It’s nice the way they’ve ‘enhanced’ downtown isn’t it? Really makes you want to NEVER EVER go down there. Well done, Mayor Garcetti. The rain ought to really be spreading those feces and needles far and wide. When’s the call coming for ‘fair housing for all”?? or maybe ‘each one reach one” and you, too, could ‘adopt’ a homeless guy

Running screaming.
