Less than a week after a massive clean-up of homeless encampments on the Venice Beach Boardwalk, new arrivals continue to swarm the area, DailyMail.com can reveal.

City officials promised they would return at the end of July to finish the job, but residents and shop owners say enough is enough, and tell DailyMail.com that last week's sweep was 'all for show'.

Last week, a concerned resident who asked not to be identified captured a couple on video taking up camp near the popular boardwalk.

Half the population is below average intelligence.

Many above average Dems have no compunction exploiting lessor beings.

WHY is Venice Beach apparently such a magnet for the homeless?

They're not homeless, they're camping enthusiasts on vacation. Cheaper to camp out on a beautiful ocean side beach than check into an expensive hotel.........

Vote to defund the police, and this happens.

However, they need to STAY HOME and fix their own problems. Calis are not welcome anywhere.

Consider who counts the votes in Maryland, or most any urban locale.

Is Camping On The Beach Legal In California?

On most beaches, it is illegal to be there after a certain time at night and before a certain time in the morning. It is also illegal in most circumstances to sleep or camp overnight on most beaches in the state of California.

Why Is Camping So Restricted On California Beaches?

There are many reasons why camping on the beach is restricted in California. The primary reason for this is in order to protect the environment. The beaches in California are heavily protected, especially since there are a lot of people living and visiting the state. Beaches and the ocean, in general, are actually pretty fragile ecosystems."

LMAO! "Protecting the environment."

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

She was intelligent, had compelling arguments and a very sharp mind, could think on her feet and debate like few others, and still didn’t get elected. Even though her platform was what the people she wanted to represent seemed to want.

Something is wrong in Baltimore.

There are no meaningful steps that can be taken because the courts have invalidated every law criminalizing vagrancy, public camping, involuntary commitment as violating constitutional rights.

Apparently normal law abiding tax paying citizens have no rights except to pay for the abnormal lifestyles of vagrants, druggies and mentally compromised people.

Come on folks! The proper term these days is “People Experiencing Homelessness”.

Yes, CA needs to go back to being Red (R) before Texas goes back to being Blue (D). [1][2]

Texas needs to decide what it is.

That is not a knock, but I have seen red states flip before, and TX is going to soon.

There’s plenty of bloodshed in Chicago, and Dems retain their stranglehold on power.

What you reward you get more of...

Until Hollywood and liberal elites went full mental over 'the homeless' in the 80's we didn't have a big 'homeless' problem... We called them 'bums' people feared becoming one of 'em. Then Hollywood glamorize them, families quick taking care of their own, and we have this crapola. Nice to see California's getting paid back for their liberal stupidity...

Hopefully in a few years they'll get paid back for their stupid support of illegals...
