Spielberg, Ben Affleck, others may have to make way for homeless in their swanky LA locales
May 16, 2021 | Jon Dougherty

Some well-to-do neighborhoods near Los Angeles that are home to Hollywood stars may soon see homeless camps like those that litter downtown as the number of people living on the street continues to rise.

The Washington Examiner reports that thousands of homeless have now crammed into a two-mile strip of Venice, home to an outdoor beachside gym where the likes of former bodybuilder Arnold Schwarzenegger and others pumped iron.  Venice is only about three miles square, but there are an estimated 4,000 homeless people who now live there, Soledad Ursua, a member of the Venice Neighborhood Council’s Board of Directors, told the outlet.

That is nearly double the number of homeless in Venice last year and is close to surpassing the 4,600 or so homeless who live on Skid Row.

Pretty sure Malibu is many miles from Venice and is in a different county (Ventura?).
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

How about Santa Monica? Only four miles up the road and I know a great place, The Jonathon Beach Club, sun and surf and when we did the ladies shower/bathrooms I plumbed in about 18 showers and commodes. It would be wonderful for them to mingle with overinflated actors like Schwarzenegger and uber rich better than thous.

I saw some video from Venice and was appalled. Tents and trash everywhere. As an aside, who buys tents for these folks?

So, local and state government are failing the homeless and the taxpayers.  Liberal reflex is to give more money to the same innept government officials and hope for a different outcome.

I was bike riding along the river running through downtown Santa Cruz the other day, the entire flood plain of that river is packed with tents, most of them identical. Unless all these homeless are shopping at the same REI these tents are clearly taxpayer supplied.

Holy bleep! Coastal Trail Runs is doing a June event that starts and finishes in Harvey West Park and kind of follows the San Lorenzo River, but on the other side of SR 9. I hope the trails aren't bum-infested.
