How do you know how they voted?
A lot of conservatives work and shop at Whole Foods.
My beef is with the far left local government who destroyed this once great city.
As a result, Costco stores are safe inside.
Photo looks like it could be a modern day Rockwell painting.
Everything from baby food, formula, booze is locked up you know the store has a theft problem
John & Ken were just discussing this a couple of days ago (radio hosts in Los Angeles).
One of the big court decisions was to end involuntary mental health confinement - IOW, the mentally ill, including psychotic, could check themselves out of institutions - institutions which have now been closed - there were supposed to be half-way houses to help this population but they were never built.
That's how they ended up on the streets in California - thousands upon thousands of them raving and ranting, some violent. Any meds that are prescribed are not taken and/or sold.
Confining psychotic mentally ill was considered at that time to be "cruel and unusual punishment" and deemed illegal. Families of mentally ill were bitterly complaining that their loved ones refused to be confined in state or any other facility that they could find and would check themselves out - only to return to the filthy, violent streets. Most had give up after years of trying to help their loved ones.
It's a very sad situation. Very sad.
