[quote=Anonymous]Born, raised, and left. Some friends, who are also natives of that failed state (metaphorical but also the state), referenced the homeless living on M Street.

Think that but everywhere. Tents covering entire streets, RVs lined for blocks, drugs, dead people faced down in the gutter. This wasn't even skidrow.

I still haven't got Coronavirus (knock on wood) and I am one of those who rarely gets sick and I have traveled to some of the worst parts of the world, but the sickest I've ever been was one day after commuting on LA Metro (a year before the pandemic). The worst smell I've ever smelled was on LA Metro. Threatened on LA Metro. Exposed to on LA Metro (I'll never sit on a subway again).

Think protests were bad last year in DC? Pennsylvania Ave looted once, Lafayette Park occupied sort of once, Capitol stormed once. Several neighborhoods through out LA were looted. All of Downtown Santa Monica was hit. Every single shop. Look it up. Beverley Hills, hit. My family has lived through three generational riots in that dump. The Bay wasn't much better, whole car lots looted, and cars stolen.

I used to encourage people to leave, but they bring their problems, politics, and failure with them. Not any more. At this point it is a choice to live there, and a choice to keep things the way they are. Even visiting is consent to the above.[/quote]
