They went from focussed liability to distributed liability. A lot harder to wring money from a large number of piddling half way houses scraping by on checks thrown at them by the government than Agnew's State Hospital. I remember the screamers and hallucinators winding up in Berkeley, to add to the already colorful milieu.

This is less than 5,000 ?

Is that LA? Obviously not.

What is that even? According to the image meta data, that picture was taken on "12/13/06".

WTF?

It's not the first time fake shit is posted from that FF account.

Why, oh why is there a problem? ask Homeless Advocates.

Easier I would think. Slum Lords rent those places to NGOs for a pretty penny; you can't charge rent on a slummy building to a State Hospital with it's own grounds and facilities. And instead of one economy-of-scale food and pharma contract, you now are paying more to a diverse bunch of suppliers.

Liberals are now showing that skin headed chick (that is a girl right?) on every news outlet they own. Left wing propaganda full swing.

Sure you didn’t...

Total failure - worldwide event ! More coming. HeadSet says

For you to dispute the <5000 in LA by using a crowd shot of DC to imply a huge crowd in LA hurts credibility.

Made a mistake, didn't catch the "LA" only in the title, sue me.

We have other posters here who post blatantly false stories and they get half dozen likes and the rest of the Trumpettes agree with them even though the whole story is completely false.

You’re assuming CNN isn’t current employment.

Anyways CNN should now have no credibility whatsoever considering they’ve sold overseas branch’s to the governments of the Philippines and Turkey.

Liberals were once Democrats and the 1st amendment defenders to the death. I’d love to see those past Democrats defend CNN as unbiased news reporters now.

The general costs of operating the main hospitals/facilities was enormous and increasing even without the liability, along the lines of usual government efficiency. There were a lot of milkers who killed the cow. The state wanted a specific limited line item budget where they could mail the checks and walk away.

Santa Cruz is installing a huge tent as a shelter for the streets overflowing with druggie homeless and whackos. The police just recycle them back out as soon as they pick them up, hoping nobody notices that they commit several offenses a day on different turf after they are dropped off. The police are more of a "Homeless Uber" than an enforcement body. The liberal view that jails are horrible places and that police are a menace also keeps enforcement extraordinarily lenient. Many of the people recycled are multiple offenders on probation. They aren't even reported to their probation officers. If it weren't for "sanctuary" status, the police would spend all of their time corralling illegals and homeless. There would no time for legs up, coffee and donuts.

Of course, there are nominal rules that the homeless can't drink, smoke or use drugs in the shelters. Yeah, that's going to keep them there. However, it creates a lively Whacko Homeless Industrial Complex that is generating another ineffectual but self lobbying bureaucracy.

There are no shortages of people marching - none.

So what are they actually marching for?

I tried to watch a bit of the Communist News Network to see what the solutions these Special Snowflakes were proposing.

I saw a lot of video clips full of Tag lines, slogans, punch lines, false narratives, but I didn't hear a single one of these clueless kids actually spew a detailed suggestion on what they want done.

Quotes like "vote them out", "stop the violence", "defeat guns", "we are the change", "guns don't die, children do", "NRA kills", etc.

What the Fuck.. Nothing but brainwashed Zombies.

Libbies, please help here, what exact solutions are the Blue team proposing, or are they just continuing to bitch, without any remedy?

Apparently the Libbies here are as confused as these Special Snowflakes.

No shortage at all of propaganda there as well - especially the first two sources. I scan them everyday so I know what will show up on here the same day or the day after.

99.99% of the time it's a slam dunk - one or more will show up with one or more of the attention grabbing click bait headlines.

CNN SOLD SOME OF ITS NEWS AGENCIES TO FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS!!!!

The rest were at home watching cnn

We're now comparing a few fringe Internet sites to the abundance of Left Wing, Liberal, Radical propaganda sites in the MSM? Like CNN, MSNBC, NPR, ABC, CBS, NBC, Bloomberg, etc. And that's before you get into ones like Facebook, Google, Twitter, Yahoo, Youtube, Mother Jones, Huff Post, WaPo, NYT.....

Report: March For Our Lives Crowd Count Well Below Expected And Initial Reports

Around 200,000 people attended the March For Our Lives gun control event in Washington, D.C. Saturday afternoon, CBS News reported.

The number is well below the 500,000 number organizers of the event expected and 600,000 less than initially reported by many news outlets immediately following the celebrity-fueled march and rally.

USA Today said Saturday the initially reported number of 800,000 marchers could “be the biggest single-day protest in D.C.’s history,” becoming a number that is larger than the 2017 Women’s March that brought 500,000 to the capitol.



BREAKING: the #MarchForOurLives has drawn a crowd of over 800,000—200,000 more than Trump’s inauguration!

Report: March For Our Lives Crowd Count Well Below Expected And Initial Reports

I knew it.

March for Our Lives 90% Adult, average age was just under 49 years old.

"The Children are begging us!!!"

The March for Our Lives was, of course, billed as a march by students affected by mass shootings for students who might, in the future, be affected by a mass shooting. But, it turns out, despite the hours spent bussing in kids from all over the country, and the attention lavished on a handful of student organizers, the vast majority — a whopping 90% — of marchers were middle-aged.

This shouldn't come as much of a surprise to anyone familiar with the anti-Trump "Resistance." After an initial wave of marches, the Resistance began to skew older and more female, and by early 2018, consisted almost entirely of Baby Boomer-aged women lecturing their kids and grandkids about the forthcoming nuclear holocaust on social media.

Although the kids provided a catalyst that catapulted the movement back into the headlines, the March for Our Lives had only a thin veneer of youth. Aside from the Parkland students that spoke, and the motivated, progressive kids who boarded buses to Washington, D.C. with only weeks lead time, the organizers were all legacy progressive organizations led by career progressive lobbyists.

And now, the data pans that out. According to a scientific survey taken during the March itself by researchers associated with The Washington Post and who have tracked the anti-Trump "Resistance" since it began the night after the election in 2016, the same people just keep showing up at everything.

The March for Our Lives was 70% women. Nearly three quarters of the marchers — 72% — had a bachelor's degree or higher level of graduate education, putting them well into the category of "leftist elite."

Most importantly though, less than 10% of marchers were under the age of 18, even though the march was clearly supposed to be for and about high school aged children. Of those adults attending the march who were over the age of 18, the average age was 49 years old — well within the realm of "Baby Boomer."

And the vast majority were career agitators: only about a quarter of marchers had "never protested before."

I don't know if 49 makes you a Boomer, but it IS middle aged.

In other words, it was all Educators and Social Workers and the Usual Liberal School Marm Types.

It would be hoped that if someone makes a post they were honest enough to now that it's true from the start.

Yes, it also "would be hoped" that people would actually read an article to see that it was talking about Washington D.C, not LA.

Yep, it was the high school kids doing the protesting.

Oh, wait.....

Despite media narrative, study says teenagers made up just 10 percent of March for Our Lives crowd.

A university professor studying large-scale, Trump-era protests in Washington says the media is giving the wrong impression about who made up the crowd during last weekend’s anti-gun March for Our Lives demonstration.

“My research tells a different story about who participated in the March for Our Lives — and it is more complicated and less well-packaged for prime time,” University of Maryland sociology professor Dana R. Fisher wrote in a Wednesday story for the Washington Post.

Fisher’s study indicates that -- while news coverage focused on the teenagers marching for gun control in the wake of last month’s shooting at Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida --- 90 percent of the crowd was actually adults. She said the average age of adults in the crowd was just under 49.

“Contrary to what’s been reported in many media accounts, the D.C. March for Our Lives crowd was not primarily made up of teenagers,” Fisher wrote. “Only about 10 percent of the participants were under 18.”

Fisher said her team sampled 256 people who were randomly selected.

Her research will become a book titled “American Resistance” and will be published after the midterm elections.

Fisher also expressed skepticism that all those who showed up to the march were there primarily because of their views on guns. Some, she said, came for entertainment.
