If only California would leave the USA, as they have promised so often... Then they could have all the feces, used syringes and illegals to themselves. They could make Nancy Pelosi their president

Well I remember when I lived in that cesspool called Louisiana there were trash piles in every little farm town, people would drink and drive and throw beer bottles out the window.

Nothing to see here folks...

Except, this topic is on LA, not Louisiana. No one is pretending like Louisiana is a particularly desirable place to live, although I would much rather live there vs California.

What a hilarious article.

Apparently, this massive, high, and long pile of garbage just appeared out of nowhere! Or maybe it dropped from the sky! Wow. I sure hope nothing like that sprouts up in my neck of the woods.

This is rich coming from somebody who is from "Metro Detroit" - - the city that not even a mother could love. Loserville central in every way.

"Rotting Trash Piles Sky-High in LA"


Are you referring to all the vapid celebrities or actual garbage?

Every city/county has either a department of paid trash collectors or a private contracted company that collects trash. Where are they for 40 hours a week?

You can thank democrats for the demise of Detroit. I will never forgive democrats for what they have done to Detroit. Thankfully, I do not live in the city. The suburbs are actually quite nice, people are happier here than California I believe, although I would never step foot in Cali for the same reason I don't eat out of the toilet.

Just a reminder this is what you get when you vote for these leftist types . Tents , Trash ,Typhus

Rat-infested piles of rotting garbage left uncollected by the city of Los Angeles, even after promises to clean it up, are fueling concerns about a new epidemic after last year's record number of flea-borne typhus cases.

Even the city's most notorious trash pile, located between downtown LA's busy Fashion and Produce districts, continues to be a magnet for rats after it was cleaned up months ago. The rodents can carry typhus-infected fleas, which can spread the disease to humans through bacteria rubbed into the eyes or cuts and scrapes on the skin, resulting in severe flu-like symptoms.

The NBC4 I-Team first told Mayor Eric Garcetti's office about the piles of filth in the 700 block of Ceres Avenue in October. At the time, he promised to make sure trash doesn't pile up like that.
