RE: LA Train Robberies: Wild, Wild, West
Well, it only took several months to get some attention...
Quote:California Gov. Gavin Newsom is promising statewide coordination as law enforcement and prosecutors go after thieves who have been raiding cargo containers aboard trains near downtown Los Angeles for months, leaving the tracks blanketed with discarded boxes.
The governor on Thursday joined a cleanup crew from the state Department of Transportation filling dozens of trash bags with crushed cardboard from packages stolen on their way from retailers to people across the U.S. The governor said his new budget proposal includes funds to expand his Organized Retail Theft Task Force.

How long before everyone just avoids shipping through California because its so lawless? There are other ports and transit pathways.

Plus criminals randomly killing store employees, shooting LA deputies, running "smash and grab" gang theft at top line stores. All of THAT BS on top of outrageous taxes, horrendous traffic, high costs of living and laws that allow criminals to run rampant all over the major cities out there.
TOLERATE IT.

The post immediately below the OP includes a quote saying this has been going on for months.
All the trash and debris in the video... it's not from several months. I read a article where Union Pacific said the area had been cleaned of debris 30 days ago.
This is since the last time it's been cleaned up.

Likely the most, or close to it, beautiful state in the lower 48 union.
The leftists allowing it to turn into a lawless, dangerous, third world schithole.
It’s sad to watch it happen. Been out there camping, surfing, skiing, wining and whatever else many many times.
The campgrounds now are all litter filled schithole, trash and debris all over. I wouldn’t swim or surf in the ocean again with all the detritus flowing off the rat and needle infested streets of LA and other junkie hobo hellholes.
Why is any of this being allowed? I wouldn’t go back to NYC anytime soon either, least not til they get “Rudy” back again in some form.
It’s pretty easy to see if one only looks.
Guess the days of The Beach Boys and blonde beach bunny’s are long gone.
IOW’s buh bye America.
Y’all starting to figure this out yet?!?
Suckers

90
NINETY train cars a day being looted
Think of that. It would take an army of homeless bums to do that.
Orrrrrrr, an organized criminal enterprise.
And they just let it happen and go.
Third world schithole on our doorstep.
And they just let it go.
Sad

RE: LA Train Robberies: Wild, Wild, West
Here is truth - California and New York are basically toast because of NYC and SFO and LAX. People are vacating those schitholes by the hundreds. UHaul can't keep enough vans and trucks in those states.
I will laugh as those states collapse in chaos. People just think it's bad now. This is just scratching the surface. We haven't seen the unbearable / incredible BAD yet. But it's coming. Give those insane state governments and the criminal element more time.
Chicago is FUBAR, too. The difference is once you get about 25 miles outside ORD, the rest of the state is almost normal. Wash DC is a swamp in more ways than one. Philadelphia is another schithole but again the western two thirds of the state is normal.

90 train cars a day is a LOT of looting.
There’s no way it’s just a small number of looters and bums conducting that operation. It also says they’re doing it in broad daylight without fear of law enforcement.

They like trains so much, lock'em in a container and ship them across country. Where's a brakeman with a club when you need him.

Gov Newsom asked for forgiveness for referring to the thieves as “gangs” and “gang members”.
Just when you thought lube couldn’t cuck to criminals any harder… in comes Newsom. “Hold my beer.”

In Florida, you could probably shoot the looters (burglarizing a train has to be a forcible felony).

This is what happens when you keep letting "takers" into your country. I'd bet 90% of the people doing the looting came here directly from a sharthole country or they were an anchor baby.

They view people who work hard and produce as "suckers". Most of the folks who work in gov't haven't actually produced anything in their entire lives other than uneccessary paperwork that just makes the producers lives more difficult. I guess that's considered job security when you work for the state or feds.
