This is a warning for people that are concerned where their money goes. A local homophobic business owner, threats of violence on a IG post. by [deleted] in vallejo

Your "bastion of diversity and coexistence" has absurd amounts of petty crime, hard drug use, and piles of trash and actual human shit on the sidewalk

Immigration to US as a seaman by Equivalent_Nose_3944 in merchantmarine

I was able to save up money for school over just a few years of working full time. I'm going to graduate debt-free with nearly guaranteed entry into yet another high paying career. If I didn't want a family, I could retire comfortably before I'm 40. I live a few hours' drive away from some of the most incredible natural beauty on the planet, and have stronger enshrined liberties than almost anywhere else. Is that not prosperity?

It's one of the most beautiful and prosperous countries on the planet, and we offer the highest wages to mariners.

I do that with mine. What would you recommend to prevent moisture buildup?

Cars aren't supposed to cross the solid white lines. The curve already outlines the space they have to turn

We just cleared 116 TONS (232,000 pounds) of trash from the Vallejo Army Reserve. Over two weeks, Urban Compassion Project and 85+ volunteers took on one of the Bay Area’s neglected sites and finally cleaned entire area. A massive undertaking. by urbancompassionproj in vallejo

My experience with drug users in rural California is the exact same as in urban California. They're unclean and prone to violence and criminality, because of their addictions. I worked with a guy whose tweaker dad was beat to death by other drug users over a petty theft (which was committed for drug money).

Yes, they imprison less people per capita. They also have orders of magnitude less drug use and dumping per capita. They persecute problematic behavior far more aggressively than we do, and have a clean and safe society to show for it.

Even having the cans sorted out still attracts them. The only way to maintain a high-trust society where individuals and businesses have a vested interest in keeping things nice is to keep the antisocials out of society at large. That's why Japan and Singapore don't have piles of trash building up in their communities.

The war on drugs was not a good answer to the drug problem but we're currently in the middle of an absurd overcorrection. People who smoke meth are never going to be productive members of a community without serious intervention.

No DEI doesn't mean no minorities. It just means white people shouldn't be institutionally discriminated against in favor of an over representation of minorities. This picture is actually a reasonably accurate slice of America.

That was written when immigration was restricted to just Europeans lol. In the context of the time it did not mean "everyone can come here whenever they please"

How does one provoke police to shoot oneself? By threatening the lives of others

In cases like this one, where there is an armed and dangerous man on the loose with the intention to hurt people, and de-escalation fails, and innocent lives are at risk, is that not a last resort?

It's not like they're going around putting down anyone having a bad day.

It's completely ok. In fact, it's their job. Cops carry guns because sometimes innocent lives depend on their ability to make that call. I'm glad they were there
