FYI: The LAPD are not responsible for the clean-up. It was Sheriff Villanueva and his Deputies that spearheaded the cleanup project back in 2021. PROMISE MADE, PROMISE KEPT. Sheriff Villanueva and his Deputies did a great job cleaning up the boardwalk when Venice Beach's own board of supervisors did absolutely nothing to clean it up. All they did was sit on their butts and hands and form committees to "investigate" the problem. I'm a native of L.A., and it's the liberal politicians-- with the tactless governor nephew of Nancy Pelosi in the lead-- who invite homeless from all over the country and south of our borders to come to California and live here on the streets. Is that fair? P.S. I once offered a homeless dude to buy him a first-class plane ticket to fly him back to his home in Indiana. He refused and said he'd rather live on the street here in L.A. and beg for change so he can buy another pint of rot gut and lay in his own filth. I figure if he went back to Indiana he’d have to work for a living. Okay?

No not. Tents move to other places. Housing is impossible. Renting is very expensive, the system has colapsed. Now in LA there are 18000 tents on the streets, next year that will be 40000 tents.

I can't even imagine the cost. If I go to the dump it's over seventy bucks for a pickup truck. They're gonna need a whole new landfill after this. When I was in High school there was two clear choices after graduation College or the draft. Fear is the best motivation. When word spread that the draft was ended it was like taking the lid off the pressure cooker. Lots of guys went surfing in Baja or just hung out....and here we are. Could reinstate the draft for an Urban Corp of workers who were homeless. There you work to clean up the mess while learning skills and gaining experience. They say it takes three months to make or break a habit. After six months of getting up at sunrise,three meals,hard work,showers and YesSir they should be employable. Then they graduate to real private sector jobs and a new batch of recruits begins training. Have it run by retired military. Now we're helping vets and the homeless. Nobody who served our country should ever be unemployed or homeless.

The cleanup crews need to be careful of dirty needles, mice and rats, and debris that can give them blood poisoning if they cut themselves. Although it is a good idea to put everything in the tent and put it in the trash masher, It's probably not the safest way to do it.

Tents aren’t cheap…..so where did they get them? I must say that i find it disgusting that it was even allowed to get that bad. How much money in labor and equipment has been spent to clean up that sh*t hole?
