       ThreadI may be in Las Vegas in about six weeks.Fingers crossed.I have a fifty year history with this city, but I will leave it without a qualm.Illegal immigration ruined it.Tonight, I'm listening to massive explosions. The new arrivals brought this to my city.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=no7lpyR_j0s

       My mother was Mexican, so I know the culture.Illegals are not interested in assimilating, and they transform their new homes into their old homes.Mexican illegals ruined my city and drove me from a place I visited and lived in for half a century.It's not recognizable anymore.

       A week ago, we had a hostage situation down the street.The LA County Sheriff Department created a staging area within my view.About 70 percent of the cops were obese.There's absolutely no way that they can run, and their flak vests can't cover their abdomens.But nobody cares.

       That's what Mexicans brought to my city.A total indifference to law and order, and a total indifference to standards.What good are 300-pound cops?If they put in ten years, they get a twenty-year pension.It's estimated that California has $1 trillion in unfunded pension mandates.Sacramento is funneling all revenue into government-union pensions and benefits.

       I have no quality of life here. The guy across the street has EIGHT dogs.The legal limit is three.The dogs bark all day and night. There's a 600-pound woman inside the house, fused to the sofa, and all four of her adult daughters are morbidly obese.The street is breaking up into chunks.And everyone is deeply unhappy.But will they try to improve?HELL NO. Improvement is not part of their ethnic identity.

       This is place is a Third World shithole now. So it's easy for me to leave it.California once led the way, but now it will be left behind.That's fine. I don't care. Indifference goes both ways. If people don't care about themselves, why should I?Leftist Californians are so angry at Trump that they're destroying themselves to get back at him.Guess which city has the dirtiest people?

       San Francisco.This survey DID NOT include the homeless.San Franciscans bathe and change their underwear the least often in the country."You can't make me wash, Daddy! I'm gonna STINK! So there!"Then stink. I will be in Las Vegas, not smelling you.

       Though it's a bitch to pull up stakes at my age, the alternative is worse.Staying here.California is ruined.But like leftist Californians, I don't care.This state worked VERY hard at destroying itself. People should get what they want.END

       @BillyRubin The city stretched a month-long renovation into over a year.We had to get the same permits eight times.They did this so that they could charge us each time.My brother finally went down in person and confronted the permit issuers. He threatened to sue each of them personally.They got scared and gave us the green light.The cement was poured yesterday.

       @ThomasWic hopefully Vegas will provide you with one of life’s most precious feelings. peace of mind. hopefully peace of sight, hearing and smell as well. i seem to remember you were having a problem with your soon to be neighbor and his cock a while back. hopefully you and Tim got that rectified. THIS variety....

       @ThomasWic Sad it came to that for you, Sir. Hope Vegas allows for a great fresh start as you deserve!I have a feeling that when the time is right, California will get cleaned up. President Trump will make sure of it. What plan he has for it, I don't know but I doubt that he doesn't have something up his sleeve.

       @ThomasWic I have worked overseas for a while and what you describe one might expect in North Africa or parts of S.E. Asia, but not in the U.S.  I am glad you will leave soon. I grew up in a suburb of L.A., so I have seen the deterioration as well.   Both my parents died in the last five years, so I have no reason and no desire to go back to California when I return to the States.  A shame. California was the land of opportunity for both of my parents and I had a nice childhood there.

       @ThomasWic @BillyRubin  - me too, I thought you were gone ages ago, but many of us had lost track when you left Twitter. I found you here again two months ago. Glad you are leaving soon. Just curious - is there anything you will miss about California?  For me, it is In-N-Out Burgers.  That's it.

       @ThomasWic I hope and pray you get out of that place asap! You sure dont need that bs! Between the new arrivals and city corruption-its turned into a hell hole.And its only going to get worse.I left NY and went to San Jose for a month.On my last day there, we went by train to San Francisco to see a Giants game at the stadium. The town seemed interesting as we made our way to the stadium..now its a S..hole. In 5 short years -I will never go back to Calif. My friends there are ready to move out

       @Dawnz @ThomasWic @BillyRubin - They are really good! My favorite, and still family owned. Maybe they have them in Vegas if they are in Texas. I know they don’t have them on the East Coast, where Five Guys is the equivalent.

       @ThomasWicWhat a stupid statement the video made at the end, "who can argue with tradition?". Everyone can and should. Something being a tradition doesn't mean it's above criticism. And stupid, dangerous traditions should be left in the past.

       @ThomasWic the non tourist life of Vegas is pretty cool.  I spent one weekend at a friends place there.  Cheap rent.  Nice big apartments.  There’s also a lot of quality music.  Tons of musicians flock there for all the available work and all the competition means you can’t suck and survive I have a student moving there for all the avail live sound gigs. Very Smart kid, 18 now But Misguided. Claims to be a “ ‘real’ socialist and anarchist.” I tell him it’s a phase he’ll grow out of 😂

       @ThomasWic Our government has enabled and created this culture. Enablers do so because it gives them control over the enabled. It isn’t only occuring in Cali and with the immigrant population. Visit Florida- the same situation is here, but to a lesser extent because we don’t have state income tax at this time, so no deep well in which to keep dipping.

       @ThomasWic What you describe sounds like hell to me! Memories of a once beautiful place, don't help you cope with living in the horror it has become. Shake the dust of that place off your feet as quickly as you are able! Every good wish for a relaxed and peaceful future in your new abode.

       @redwhitebluedude @ThomasWicI would rename California The Left Coast RAT Sewer, but that also pertains to Oregon and Washington as well!  Oh my, what to do?

       @ThomasWic Come to East TN! Beautiful weather, all 4 seasons and SWEET TEA. We would love to have you! I visited a friend in LA in 2011. Only time I've ever left home except surrounding states. I could not wait to get back home!
