FOX5: LOS ANGELES — Gov. Gavin Newsom has vowed to crack down on the thieves raiding California cargo trains in recent weeks, but he also made a stir with his remarks as he surveyed the scene in Los Angeles Thursday.
Newsom was holding a news conference after helping crews with cleanup along the tracks northeast of downtown L.A. Before that day’s efforts, the area was littered with discarded merchandise and packaging. Union Pacific officials say crooks break into shipping containers and steal packages in broad daylight, leaving behind whatever they don’t want or can’t carry. According to the company, there’s been a 160% increase in such rail crimes.‘It could be broad daylight’: Looters raid trains of Amazon, UPS packages
The thefts have generated significant media coverage and calls for better security on the tracks. Newsom pledged Thursday to devote more state resources, including California Highway Patrol officers, to stopping the break-ins. But the appearance was quick to generate criticism from the governor’s rivals, especially surrounding a comment he made about the scene there. read more
Welcome to the Third World that YOU created Asshole!!
^^^ yep. You Built That Grusome…
In third-world countries the government steals from the citizens.
Yep, that’s it.
Go figure, Gavin. You’re a Third World despot. What kind of state did you think you’d rule over?
BTW, has your young daughter gotten her jabs yet?
build the wall.
Ya can’t blame the perps.
They consider it their job to loot.
Loot. Sell. Get caught. Go to court. Get released Scott free. Get up. Do it all over again.
Looks like a job to me, except there’s no time clock to punch.
These jobs must be what Dementiajoe was referring to in his mumblings the other day.
What a fucking maroon.
It’s a contest for the 3 left coast govs to see who can be the biggest dummy.
No problem is so bad that gov’t can’t make worse.
Everything was okay right up until he saw “drone images on the nightly news.”
Will more resources be used to fight crime or to stop news outlets from casting Hairdo in a bad light? I think you know the answer because certainly someone said something before the nightly news picked up the story.
“If you build it, they will come”
Damn, he screwed that up too!
Braggart!
mortem tyrannis
izlamo delenda est …
So one reporter’s take away is,”Don’t use the term Third World”. This is why we are seeing what we are seeing. Language is being replaced with less precise words. Maybe a third place Olympian should be called a developing athlete. Assholes
Not quite third world. A third world country would actually do something to stop it rather than pretending they were helpless while abetting the thieving all along by refusing to prosecute it nor shoot looters.
FUCK YOU DEMOCRATS
Need some of those “I did that” stickers for Gov. Hairgel.
DEAR BAILEY & ASHLEY, PLEASE GO HAWK YOUR HO-MADE LEZZY VIDEOS ELSEWHERE!!!
‘third world country’
You spelled SHITHOLE wrong.
How sure am I that George Gascon will prosecute anyone “based on the evidence”? Depends on the perps skin color
This is nothing that a couple sniper teams couldn’t solve in a week. You loot, you get shot. They could even post a bunch of “Trespassers will be shot” signs as a warning.
What the subhuman piece of shit is commenting on is a reflection of his own policies and agenda
$120 an hour with two kids at home? Imagine how much you could make with three…
SoCal train yards are a third world country?
That must make him a third world governor.
