Dear Folks,
Re: California is now a leading S_hithole State.
This actually hurts me to relate as I know California better than most in this country.
I actually am a second and third generation Californian*: my Step-Grandfather came over Donner's Pass in a wagon as a baby in the 1880s and my Father and his Brothers fought in the San Francisco Longshoreman's Battles of the 30's.
I could relate much, much more but why?!
I post here only the first paragraphs of a great and well done expose' from the following site; and I urge everyone to follow this site, as America sinks into the Ineluctable Hell of 3rd World S_thole.

* Was, as I followed my Father to Alaska** in the 60s: he had first gone to Alaska to prospect for gold and work in the mines around Fairbanks in 1930 -- in the midst of the depression and moved there to live full time in 1955. I still have extended family remaining in California -- but most have fled to other States.
** I very strongly believe that Alaska will be the very last S_thole State since very strong, independent and patriotic Americans moved and are still moving there -- now in big numbers!
"Conditions On The Streets Of San Francisco Are Comparable To “The Slums Of Mumbai, Delhi, Mexico City, Jarkarta, And Manila”
"Once upon a time, some of the most beautiful cities in the entire world were on the west coast, but now those same cities are degenerating into drug-infested cesspools of filth and garbage right in front of our eyes. San Francisco is known as the epicenter for our tech industry, and Los Angeles produces more entertainment than anyone else in the world, and yet both cities are making headlines all over the world for other reasons these days. Right now, nearly a quarter of the nation’s homeless population lives in the state of California, and more are arriving with each passing day. When you walk the streets of San Francisco or Los Angeles, you can’t help but notice the open air drug markets, the giant mountains of trash, and the discarded needles and piles of human feces that are seemingly everywhere. If this is what things look like when the U.S. economy is still relatively stable, how bad are things going to get when the economy tanks?
In San Francisco, the homeless population has grown by 17 percent since 2017, and when a UN official recently walked the streets she was absolutely horrified by what she witnessed…
When Leilani Farha paid a visit to San Francisco in January, she knew the grim reputation of the city’s homeless encampments. In her four years as the United Nations Special Rapporteur for Adequate Housing, Farha has visited the slums of Mumbai, Delhi, Mexico City, Jarkarta, and Manila. The crisis in San Francisco, she said, is comparable to these conditions.I have never been to Mumbai, Delhi, Mexico City, Jarkarta or Manila, and so I will just have to take her word for what the conditions are like there.
But how can this be happening in one of the wealthiest cities in the entire country?
... ... there is still time.
