Can anyone tell me about San Bernardino California?

Posted on 03/02/2009 10:09:53 AM PST by mainestategop

I got a friend who used to live in the city of San Bernardino. Used to work at some kind of restaurant over there. I heard different things about SB, one that it was just some valley town that supported Bush, the other that it was a liberal sewer pit with high crime and a lot of homeless. (But that would be just about any place in Cali) What do they have over there? I've only been to Bakersfield, Lancaster, LA and San Diego.

Start thinking about a lot of hispanics, illegal & legal. Oh, and throw in a lot of trashy meth head types.

When I was there, I heard that the most common vehicle, in that town, is a shopping cart.

Check out the song by Frank Zappa...

“Down in San Berdino”

She lives in mojave in a winnebago
His name is bobby, he looks like a potato

Shes in love with a boy
>from the rodeo
Who pulls the rope on the chute
When they let those suckers go

Hes a slobberin drunk at the palomino
They give him thirty days in san berdino

Well theres forty-four men
Stashed away in tank c
An theres only one shower
But it dont apply to bobby

You may think theyre
Dumb an lonely
But youre wrong
cause their love is strong
Stacked-up hair
An a cheap little ring
They dont care
cause it dont mean a thing

Looka there...
They dont care

Best-est way that
They can feel-o
Out on the highway
Rollin a wheel-o
Hes her tootsie
Shes for real-o
Trailer park heaven
Its a real good deal-o
Real good deal-o
Real good deal-o
Real good deal-o

The rest of their lives
In san berdino
Gonna spend the rest of their lives
In san berdino
The rest of their lives
In san berdino
Come on with me
Come on with me
Come on with me
Down in san berdino
Just 60 miles, 60 miles
Down the san berdino freeway
They got some dark green air
An you can choke all day
Thats right!
Gonna spend the rest of their lives
Rest of their lives
Rest of their lives

Say now
Aint talkin bout fontana
Aint talkin bout uh uh
Aint talkin bout uh uh
Aint talkin bout uh uh
Aint talkin bout the redlands, no no
Zulch is the auto works
Im telling you
Thats where they take
All the cars that they hurt
Come on and lets all go down to san berdino
Ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo
Ooo-ooo
Lets-a go down down down
Down in san berdino
Wouldja blieve it
San berdino
San berdino

San berdino
(cmere)
San berdino
Etc., etc., etc.
The rest of their lives
In san berdino

Oh bobby, Im sorry you gotta head like a potato

I’m pretty sure San Bernardino votes GOP, but in every other aspect it is pretty much a sewer.

I’m originally from Redlands which is a city just to the east of San Bernardino. Berdoo *does* have good areas (to live) but the city as a whole has become so seedy and unpleasant. The smog is horrendous except for wintertime when the purple snow capped mountains can actually be seen. It’s at that time the valley is truly beautiful.

While I still visit family (and friends) from time to time, you couldn’t pay me enough to live in that area again.

Yes, but nowhere more so than this area.
I would imagine that a lot of folks here are on interest only arms. In fact, people from other shi**y parts of SoCal make fun of this area. Just another town that the illegal immigrants have destroyed in Cali.

I always thought LA was a liberal Sewer. When I was there, nothing but crackheads, homeless bums, liberal nut jobs and celebrities. I also heard that it now has more homeless than in San Francisco and is a virtual third world country. I did hear that they have a lot of hispanics in SB though, mostly illegals.

San Bernadino itself is a transplanted South Central Los Angeles to the middle of what used to be solid conservative territory, and Fontana’s the new San Bernardino, both locals mostly run down by parole programs that placed a criminal element in what used to be great areas.

Topping that, it’s the county seat, a natural gathering point for liberal ideology as they infect county governments even in the most conservative of areas. There are loads of nice areas /around/ San Bernardino, but the city has virtually destroyed itself with a little help from liberals.

Very high crime rate, quickly turning into another SoCal barrio like so many other once pleasant places. There are a lot of newer housing tracts out there as well, where the Bush voters are, but the city itself is a sewer now.
