Victoria City Liberalism

It is so amazing and so predictable. Year after year I watch the City's leaders buckle (suckhole) to the local Times Communist newspaper and cater to the perspective of the "homeless" and the "poor". The Times Communist runs the same stories year after year...same story, different names. THey always miss the point. When downtown Victoria becomes the East Hastings of Victoria maybe the people of Victoria will get a new newspaper; one that cares for the people paying their wages rather then addicts and crazys.

The future and predictable result is that they will turn the Victoria City's downtown into Vancouver's Main and Hastings; an area where nobody in their right mind would venture. That is because they pretend over and over to be dealing with the politically correct notion that the "homeless" and the "poor" need fixes for their problems. The reality is that drug addicts, meth addicts, pedders and dealers, thiefs, hoods, excons, along with some crazy people (I'm sorry some people with mental handicaps)who have been put on to the street by the closure of groups homes by the NDP. God forbid that the Times Communists (I'm sorry I mean Colonist) would blame the socialists for anything wrong.

In time the businesses that survive on the tourists trade shut down because business goes elsewhere. The majestic EMPRESS HOTEL has lost Convention business because of the aggressive addicts on the street. (Oh I am sorry the starving "homeless")Nobody can park their auto because it will be broke into.

The real solution is to create a bubble zone that bars homeless or addicts from the downtown zone of Victoria before they turn Douglas and View into Main and Hastings.

I have to admit I was impressed with the efforts made by New York to clean up its problem and they started it with leaning on people who littered and making them or their presence politically incorrect.

Does anyone remember reading about New York City deciding to crack down on littering a number of years ago? At first, it seems like such an inconsequential matter to focus on, but studies showed that as soon as that first piece of litter hit the turf, people felt free to toss anything and everything onto the ground in it's wake. Focusing attention on that initial offense, was the first step in reclaiming New York's reputation as a tourist, if you will, mecca. The first piece of litter to clean out in Victoria is the Times Colonist.
