WATCH: Venice Beach Is The New Skid Row

Posted on 10/09/2020 6:48 am

A popular YouTuber tours the homeless camps of Venice Beach, the new Skid Row of Los Angeles.

It’s unwalkable, unbearable and heartbreaking.

Everyone needs to write to Eric Garcetti and complain about Venice problem, homeless.

That’s fine, maybe he will ignore those complaints and maybe he won’t(?), but more important, people in Venice (and elsewhere in L.A.) need to understand, if at all possible, that if they don’t want to live in a stinking, slimy garbage dump they need to be encouraged to STOP voting for Democrats.

TBF: Venice was always more a shthole than Santa Monica.

So everyone who has money or a step up out here is fine but for people like me who had to struggle to get off the street with all these “open” and “easy access” shelters everyone is talking about what’s our choice of every getting anywhere if a 20 year old orphan needs a silver spoon to belong then blank all of you

The homeless people you see have already gone through dozens of extremely expensive taxpayer paid mental health & drug/alcohol treatment programs, and when finished with those programs they are released directly to the streets, more insane & more addicted than ever before…and still homeless.

How about mental health & drug/alcohol treatment that actually works? The current one-size-fits-all treatment protocols of handfuls of meds that don’t work, never-ending “How do you feel” group therapy nonsense, and mandatory “Jesus Saves” & 12-Step religious AA/NA cult conversion has been an absolute failure; it has made the treatment industry executives filthy rich.

You want progressive you get free range open air mental wards progressive. There are no property rights in a socialist utopia. And I don’t see large crowds out protesting the defund the police mob either. Other major West Coast cities are no worse and no better. This has all been brewing since the Berkeley riots of the 60s. Why complain when you attract what you ask for.

My blood boils just watching this. I have watched the west side of LA go to hell within THREE YEARS. Just three years ago it was nothing like this. Eric Garcetti presides over this awful mess. It will just get worse. Don’t go to visit Venice Beach at all. Starve it. Send a message. An economic message. All those planning to vote Democratic, you folks back east, watch this video and picture YOUR community soon looking like this.

In a few weeks California will reinstall Democrats to shepherd the complete destruction of paradise. Liberalism is a MENTAL DISORDER.

what is seen in the video is not just Venice Beach. What is seen in the video is happening in a major part of L.A. & Orange counties. It’s concentrated in Venice and spread out allot of other places. Mexifornia is becoming a failed state under liberal dem rule.

My only issue with your statement, is the inclusion of the word “becoming”.

Read Ed Ring’s “Gathering for the Feast at the Hotel California” on this.

This is all about these evil Dems pronouncing this area “blighted,” after which they and their crony ‘capitalist’ developers buy THE MOST VALUABLE REAL ESTATE ON EARTH for a song, build luxury housing, hotels, etc., and make more money off of it than anyone has ever seen in their lives.
