This is awful, and LA is not the only major US city that is about to collapse. Too bad the rich libs are moving to red states to ruin them, too.

They’re going through west LA and it looks like Somalia. West LA was once where all the uppity ups lived. Amazing.

The liberal politicians don’t care. They know their intentionally ruined cities will be bailed out through endless trillion dollar “Covid” packages from D.C., paid by the law abiding suckers in the Red states.

Can we “annex” California to Mexico? Atleast the coastal and large swaths of areas like Los Angeles, San Francisco, Oakland? Then we could get rid of San Fran Nan as welL!

What we noticed was many of the closed or leased stores, the street vendors now occupy the fronts of those stores. No leases! What’s not to like?

The Rat Party's two patron "saints",Saul Alinsky and Billy Ayers,have always insisted that America must be "fundamentally transformed". Fine tuning isn't enough.

As Osama Obama once announced...he would never let a crisis go to waste. The virus gave the Rats the crisis needed to drive Trump out of office and to bring Americans to their knees.

This video shows that they're succeeding beyond their wildest dreams.

Where do the derelicts get their drugs from? Who do they beg from if no foot traffic?

Ya know, if I was still in CA and seeing all this shut down commercial property, I’d have real concerns about where the value of my home might be headed.

Are you kidding me?

He is driving through nicer parts of LA. During the day.

There are HUNDREDS of You Tubes out there showing block after block after block of LA at night. Square miles of filth and human debris.

There are videos out there of folks driving for miles with nothing but tents and garbage.

This video of nice LA is nothing compared to how pathetic the city really is.

The one improvement the video narrator could have added would have been to include - every few blocks - the cross streets as they passed down an avenue/boulevard.

It would give greater context to exactly where they were at at any time, because the major east-west avenues in Los Angeles are miles long with changing neighborhoods along them.

Without that detail we have to accept the video’s anecdotal evidence, but the detail - if it was included - could show wide differences in conditions, depending on exactly where each segment was filmed.

This video is stupid.

This guy ought to go filming the many many blocks of LA some night, if he dares.

Homeless population's mental illness, substance abuse under-reported - Los  Angeles Times

Thats where the drugs, crime, filth and real trash is.
