I could think of countless better ways to use one’s time than cleaning up after bums & mental cases.
But it is good PR. Hundreds of politicians cant do shit but one conservative can gather a bunch of friends and take care of business. Its a model the Rats may want to worry about.
You are UFB.
Their cleaning-up that homeless camp is a demonstration of Conservatism vs. Liberalism.
A front end loader and some dump trucks could have cleared that out in a couple of hours.
I agree, but for a different reason. Conservatives should NOT be going into these cesspools and relieving the voters of the consequences of their actions. It’s like aiding a heroin addict with “clean needles.”
A good percentage of them are veterans with serious issues with addiction\PTSD. As well as PEOPLE with opiate addictions in need of care. So a little compassion...

I get the PR angle, but LA voters need to wallow in filth, have a epidemic of medieval diseases, and maybe the ones who live will change their voting patterns.
Pressler is very effectively showing how little concern local politicians actually have for the underclass they claim to represent
It highlights the fact a clean-up can be done but government officials continue to fail to act.
It should be an effective means to call-out and shame politicians but they have no shame.
It also raises the spirit of the community and makes them aware of what's possible; that they don't have to live with filth.
Helping one’s neighbors who are being overrun by this crud is not a waste of time. It shames the bums who don’t care about the mess they make, and restores hope in the victims of the bums... that not everyone is a dirtball... not even the person most accused of being one. That little bit of restored faith, even if the crud returns which it limely will, may energize another person or many persons to quit complaining and do something every day to make that day a little better than the one before.
That’s the difference between US and Dems.
They talk the walk and we walk the walk:-)
