Los Angeles?--The new Tijuana?

Question

I came across this on YouTube, some guy with a camera walked around a street in L.A. and claims that the city used to be a glorious and beautiful place, but now it's turned into a third world like community. Some ppl agree, some do not.

What do you think?

Answer 1

This was coming to a neighbor near you if amnesty passed. It has been said that California is a bell weather state, so what happens in California is the wave of the future for all states, it that doesnt scarce the pants off of you, I don't know that will

Answer 2

I know its right!!!! I lived in Houston in the 90's in a lovely but inexpensive apt house, there were gardens inside with flowers and trees ... until the Mexicans started moving in, they destroyed every thing! Walked on the flowers, broke the trees and shrubbery, laundromat was filthy..but..worse part of all is..you were not safe after dark to get mail,empty garbage, laundry or just sit at the pool. They destroyed every thing and I have been there first hand. These people were for the most part illegals the American Mexicans would have nothing to do with them! I have never been raciest but I do not want these people in my country or for neighbors if that makes me a bad person so be it.

Answer 3

You can go to any metropolitan city in thee USA and choose a street that will scare anybody! What the person making the comment is saying, in my opinion, is that there are too many people there that he does not identify with. He feels threatened. Do you recall Rev. Jessee Jackson and his "Hymie town" comment.( he was referring to N.Y. City) Racists come in all colors and so do ignorant people. How about visiting Oakland, CA. There are sections of West and East Oakland that not even the police will go .to investigate crime scenes unless th entire riot squad is called out. It could be an American problem common to all inner city neighborhoods. I don't have the solution.

Answer 4

There are statistically more illegal alien Mexican gang members in Los Angeles than all whites, blacks and asian gang members combined. What a culture! When will we wake up people?
Why can't we deport 12 million people? It obviously wouldn't happen overnight. They say it would cost too much. In the long run, keeping these criminals here will cost our country its place in the world. Social security, hospitals closing, here in California medi-cal and medicare... its all being extinguished by criminals who would rather fly a Mexican flag. We ship manufacturing jobs to asia, white collar jobs to India and are replaced with unskilled, ignorant people who usually don't even speak the language. When did our country become so pussified?

Answer 5

Los Angeles now sucks. Blame Democrats in Los Angeles because they made rules that stopped illegal aliens from being arrested.

On a side note, Tijuana is now dangerous for Americans. Criminals there are now targeting Americans. Lets hope the same does not happen in Los Angeles.

Answer 6

I think most of the largest cities in US have become home most of the immigrants.. i live in a SW city... and its mostly people from Mexico.. they have their own parts of town... stores, gas stations, restruants, churches... but its all over the USA....

Answer 7

A nice American name...Los Angeles...I heard that it was part of Mexico until we stole it in an empirical war for territory !
