Not fit for tourists

Planning on a trip to visit California anytime soon? There are probably a few facts you need to know. In his book, Tucker Carlson noted the city of Los Angeles had 55,188 homeless people and 75 percent of them were living in the open air of the city. The homeless were found passed out on sidewalks, sleeping on benches, and camped out in the parks. They used the open areas to relieve themselves.

But Carlson said that wasn’t as bad as San Francisco. The local NBC news affiliate this past spring found garbage was strewn about the 153 blocks of downtown San Francisco.

About 100 blocks had piles of human feces. About 40 blocks had discarded hypodermic needles on the ground.

San Francisco also has the highest rate of property crimes in country.

These two cities are home to Congresswomen Nancy Pelosi, Maxine Waters and Dianne Feinstein. I wonder what they are doing to address the problem in their hometowns.

These two cities also are known to be sanctuary cities for illegal immigrants. Somehow, I don’t think hey two cities would be places tourists would want to visit.
