> And what about the homless population? Yes it is a problem that there are so many unhoused people. But is it really surprising that they would congregate in a city with such mild weather and access to social services? Do they not also have a right to live their lives?

Sure. It is a "free" country after all. I have no dog in the fight since I am not in the US and do not intend to visit LA any time soon (maybe in the 70s I would have).

All I am doing is, pointing out the reality of LA.

I'm sorry but I fail to see what reality you are pointing out. Yes there are homeless in LA. Same with many places.

You are commenting on a post about the _experience_ of living in Los Angeles without--by your own admission--having visited the city.

Well, the article was about LA and not "many places".

No, I have not visited but I have seen and heard enough to stay away. Maybe win/win!
