According to the local presses, it was bums camping out under the Santa Monica freeway with no zoning enforcement whatsoever. Some were said to be stealing electricity. Others were reportedly using propane tanks for cooking.


You LA folks trying to get to and from work today and for the next year can thank the bums for this

“You LA folks trying to get to and from work today and for the next year can thank the bums for this.”

The politicians who allow this crap to go on deserve most of the blame.

If only there was an institution that created ordinances to protect others from fire hazards created by others.

And who votes for the politicians? Again, the people of LA should get their heads out of the sand when it comes to vote.

The term ‘third world s#*thole’ comes to mind... along with, something about ‘making your own bed...’

Fire under a raised portion of the ATL downton connector (I-75 & I-85) shut down the interstate through ATL. One section of the interstate actually collapsed due to heat from burning construction materials stored under the raised highway. The sainted homeless were to blame.

Bums got their name from sitting on their Bums all the time. We also got a lot of Bums in government.

You can bet your bottom dollar that’s how it started. You actually believe the media?

And the mainstream media will never let it come out. Gotta protect those Democrats.

In England (and perhaps LA too), “Bum Encampment” takes on a different meaning.

LA is proof that massive election fraud has been taking place in big blue cities around the country for a long, long time.

I think he was just saying the media spiked that part of the story.

I used to live in kali. They do not need fraud for RATs to win in LA. Or San fran. Or Sac. Those places are totally occupied by the enemy. The fraud comes in to negate the conservative votes from the rest of the state.
