I'm sure it is not news to anyone that the area around the Capital building, Civic Center park and surrounding areas have become a real POS. The media is covering this in their usual way and our politicians are doing nothing.

If you have not been down there in a while, take a drive. It is beyond belief! Tents and piles of trash everywhere. NO SOCIAL DISTANCING HERE!!!

They are putting up temporary chain link fence sections around OUR STATE CAPITAL BUILDING to keep it from being vandalized, there is graffiti and broken windows everywhere and plywood covers most of the first floor windows in any business in a 4 BLOCK AREA!!

Disgusting to say the least. It is (was) a great place for out of towners/staters to visit. Fantastic history and a wonderful tour, I saw several small groups of obvious tourist walking through this sea of vermin. What a great impression! Right Mr. Polis?

Bottom line is why did these jerks even get to this area and tear it up 7 weeks ago WITH NO POLICE OPPOSITION, where was the State Patrol?? On stand-down???

If you have seen it, you will be pissed. If you have not seen it, get ready.

By the way, they are doing a study on the cost of restoration of the damage to the buildings and monuments, they can't get and estimate because damage continues every day! It will probably take over 3 years and 2 mil to pay for this. They have less than a handful of perps and will convict 0.

Need to check my blood-pressure.
