There Was Never Going to Be Any 'Rebuilt' Pacific Palisades

Y'All Got Took: There Was Never Going to Be Any 'Rebuilt' Pacific Palisades
You knew in your heart of hearts from the very beginning.
Even as you watched those first flames take the first houses and then leap up through the canyons and down through the hillsides, through the breaks, even jumping PCH to gobble up the houses tucked next to the highway itself - those uniquely SoCal structures sandwiched between the asphalt and that big, blue Pacific surf...you knew.
You knew would never see it again, for all the gargoyle grin assurances of the mayor who couldn't be bothered to be there when the flames broke out. For all the slickster, huckstering, faux promises of a governor faking phone calls as he skittered like a cockroach from angry, heartbroken residents who only wanted answers.
You knew.
You knew when comedian turned prophet Adam Corolla went on an epic rant from a hotel room desk, a fire refugee himself waiting on word whether he had a home or not, telling you then and there if your home was gone, it was gone for good.
Because Mayor Karen Bass, Governor Gavin Newsom, and the soul-crushing machinery of the State of California had the will and the power to ensure you would never rebuild, one way or the other.

Nope. Soon the US will either concede California or go full Abe Lincoln to restore what California once was.
And yes, it’s Reagan’s dumbass fault for opening the amnesty floodgates.

I like to see rich liberals get their just deserts.

Trump sat there and told them to their face they were going to frick up the rebuild.
They did.
They did.

And of course it was never going to be rebuilt.
If so they would have never decided to burn it down.

The rebuild is going perfectly in their eyes. You’re thinking like a normal person with common sense. You have to think like a mentally ill globohomo to understand their desired outcome.

It is one of the highest acts of love, IMHO, to tell people a particularly painful truth that they do not want to hear.

And many are. But there are also a lot of good, conservative people in Cali. Must be terrible to have to put up with the insanity out there.

It's actually middle-class apartment dwellers that are getting fricked. They are rebuilding multi-family dwellings as low-income housing, using the county-wide income averages, not the local income averages. So even poor people in Pacific Palisades will likely make too much money to move back there.
6 months out, 44 building permits have been issued.

Makes my heart sing with joy. Let the nimbys get the result of their voting habits. Voting habits have consequences. Enjoy the new section 8 housing next door nimby asses.

Am I supposed to care rich liberals are going to not get their precious ocean views back?
I fully support turning Pacific Palisades into high density, cheap housing for people of color. At the end of the day, that is the world they promise to the poor and power to them if they do it. This is what they voted for, time to make it a reality.

There's too much value there and too many people with money who want to live there. It will return, but in different form.

They will be fine
What’s just deserts is the libs who got grandfathered into not paying property taxes while they cheered on higher taxes for everyone else
They can’t afford rebuild there, to bad, decades of being subsidized by their fellow man finally caught up

Yeah, maybe. Whites are still majority Dim out there though. Besides, liberal elite whites are the ones determined to turn Cali Commie.

Inb4 that moron claims that Karen Bass & the LA website make rebuilding a Palisades house as easy as 1-2-3.

So what is the goal exactly? Sell the land to rich people to build mansions? Build low income housing to support the great replacement?

Everything Gavin Newscum proposes, promises or gets involved with turns to shite.
And this is why he’s the democrat darling
