One of the main reasons the homeless population is so large in Los Angeles is that progressives refuse to admit that the problem has nothing to do with the lack of housing. So while they pretend they are doing everything in their power to “house” this drug-addicted and mentally ill population, the problem gets exceedingly worse. Subsequently, law-abiding citizens are left to fend for themselves.

While the city allows people to camp out in the public right of way, so much so that there are several ADA violations(probably), business owners are punished and suffer from the sheer incompetence of city officials.

Los Angeles removed planters placed by business owners to prevent homeless people from causing chaos and camping out in front of businesses because they supposedly need a permit. However, it’s unclear why the city does not require permits to camp out on the street and shoot up hard drugs. It’s also unclear why they do everything in their power to ruin the lives of these people while they allow the “unhoused” population to run rampant like The Walking Dead.

According to KTLA:

Hollywood business owners are upset and frustrated after planters that were installed to keep homeless encampments from growing were ordered to be removed.

The planters and garden beds were placed along the sidewalk on Sunset Boulevard and Highland Avenue in May after shop owners said homeless encampments had completely blocked sidewalks and access paths for almost two years.

The sidewalk was completely inaccessible. This was not only a problem for business owners but also for people who just wanted to access the area or walk through. The buildings were vandalized and people were threatened by these “unhoused” individuals. There were even arson attempts because that’s what people do when they are strung out on heroin.

Before installing the planters, business owners said they sent multiple requests to city officials and the L.A. mayor’s office seeking help with the situation but were ignored.

Of course, they did. They don’t care. They would much rather let drug addicts take over and create a zombie apocalypse than do anything for taxpayers or people who positively contribute to the city. They will bend over backward for these zombies but give the finger to the people they supposedly promised to represent.

“We’ve literally watched all our neighbors leave [the area],” said Andrew Monheim, owner of Monheim Microphones. “I think one of the saddest things right now is small business retention. The mayor should be embarrassed because it’s disgusting how many small businesses have fled and left.”

These people are not embarrassed, as progressives have no shame in their game, no matter how much they harm people. These are people who have literally created a flesh-eating virus as a result of their policies. Rather than doing something productive, the city shames business owners who were left to fend for themselves for even thinking of ways to fix the issue.

Just because the city has told them the mess officials created is a personal problem, that means dealing with the issue, not fixing it.

Many business owners said they were upset and frustrated over the city’s response of targeting the planters instead of the encampments.

“You should be proud to have tourists walking down the street instead of defecation and piss on the ground,” Monheim said to city officials. “You should be proud to have money coming in and flowing through your city.”

One irritating thing about progressives is their blatant disregard for some laws and their painful verbatim understanding of other laws. They will pick and choose what laws they follow, who they wish to punish, and what they want to enforce. But when they actually choose to promote their version of lawfulness, they will read the law so painfully verbatim that it’s essentially doing the opposite of what the law was intended to do.

You know, I have a hard time believing the permit law only applies to business owners trying to fix the mess city officials refuse to clean up.

But none of this matters, city officials don’t give a crap about the little people. It’s politically advantageous for them to funnel funds through NGOs that claim to “house” the “unhoused” while ruining the lives of everyone else. It’s not politically advantageous for politicians to actually help the people they represent. That’s not what progressives do in their asinine pursuit of utopia.

Interesting how whenever there seems to be a major problem, NGOs come and pretend to save the day, while making the problem 10 times worse. * Cough cough - border crisis - cough cough. *

It’s cute that business owners are complaining to the media and obviously, everything they are saying is valid, but it’s much ado about nothing, at least in the city’s eyes.

How much do you want to bet their permits will be denied? As of Monday, the streets had no plants and no tents. It’s now been nearly 24 hours, and it’s unclear if an “unhoused” person has taken advantage of this pristine real estate location, but don’t think the wheelchairs will have access to this public right away for long.

Sooner or later, the tents will be back. And by sooner or later I mean they are probably already back.

It's rather telling that the more these people spend on housing the unhoused, the worse it gets.
