Leave home for Navy. Return to home town. Go to river where I fished since 10yrs old.Woods gone, condos, strip mall and restaurants replace then.Find moss covered rock i use to sit on, now spray painted artwork project. Sit and wonder why?
In my town there was a section of woods the railroad tracks run through that was next to a small section of the local river. People always used to fish back there, it was a place for parties on the weekend and there were lots of little trails that were just fun to walk around in nature a bit in the city. I went down the railroad tracks last summer to reminisce but the trees were all gone, smaller little creeks that branched off the river were filled in and the whole area had soil brought in and leveled into a giant parking lot for the county. When I headed back to the main road a sheriff was standing next to one of the railroad buildings and 'reminded' that I was trespassing through there. I asked what happened to the woods and trails and stuff and he told me they had to clean the whole thing out because homeless people had taken over and had a little homeless colony back there. Kinda sad that it was enjoyed for so many years but ruined so fast by homeless people trashing it and drugging up. Some people feel bad for the homeless but I now see them as a pestilence that ruins things for normal people.
>>2864597easy answer? jews (its true, but shallow)real answer? go look at city records & see how much there used to be BEFORE your time, and recognize how little remained by the time you were a childbuildings crumble, get recycled, then become dirt lots that turn into forestry; afterwhich, is then sold for basic infra that'll stick around for a determinate amount of decades, depending of how smart/retarded the owners & city controllers aregive it enough time, and those buildings will go to shit, and some kid in 30-80 years will be asking where it all gone too, but while sitting in a forest instead
>>2864600That's true too, in another area near me there's miles and miles of nature trails. In the river there there's the shell of a large bridge that went across. I looked it up and years ago it was all roads for logging and stuff. In less than 60 years or so nature has already reclaimed nearly everything.
>>2864600All farm land that went dormant. Now filled with condo dwelling bun heads. Why can't they renew the fucking city they seeped from instead of moving to rural towns.
>>2864611they think they can get cheap land & live the "country core life"will they actually? fuck no, lmaothey're getting scammed with mc mansions, taking loans that are getting extended longer than their lifetimes, and absolutely despise local legislaturegive it a 10-20 years, and they're gonna flee back to their overpriced concrete jungle, all while being dead brokesure, they won't be gone overnight, but they're not staying forever
>>2864598damn bro hope you keep paying your taxes so the sherriff can keep letting homeless people create camps in places that they want normal people to stop hanging out, would be terrible if they did a little police work and arrested people who were problems instead of just letting them create visible problems that are basically the only source of their increase in funding in such areas also if you're having parties down by the river that's not helping my local buddies who own the bar downtown
.
>>2864597bro the local retirement beachfront village used to be the local natives burial ground for centuries. such is the way of "progress"
>>2864748
>>2864629How about you just go get a job instead of standing around at intersections?
>>2864771but i've already got a dog?
>>2864771>>2864792I watched one while parked at a chick fil a once. Between lights he would pull out his phone and scroll.Then his time was up, he walked off and was replaced by another. Original guy headed to the parking lot I was in, put his stuff in the trunk and went to the restaurants bathroom. I think we have professional beggers in my state.
>>2864843I think you're not wrong with your conclusion but you're also so retarded about it with your specific anecdote that you're probably wrong in that instancenext you're going to pretend you are working constantly at work
>>2864597I know the feeling. I just got back from 'Nam and was hitchhiking through Oregon. A cop started harassing me, next thing I knew I had a whole army of cops chasing me through the woods. I had to take them all out, it was a blood bath.
>>2864598There's "the homeless" and there's homeless. Normal homeless people don't live in tent cities stealing from each other and selling each other drugs
>>2865466>ThEy ArNt ThE rEaL hOmElEsS!!!1111stop excusing and romanticizing mentally ill vagrancy.
>>2864597That's awful. Sorry man, seems to be the name of the game these days, especially after covid and the push to "diversify" nature.A couple weekends ago I went fishing in my local river, spent hundreds of hours there in the past few years alone. There was this pool above an old dam that's full of bass with big trees overhanging the pool and it's perfect for fishing, swimming and just hanging out in a spot with a nice secluded vibe. There is some kind of water testing facility that's above it that's been there for fifty years atleast. I guess the county decided that it's a really important place because they clear cut all the old trees and built a giant fence around it. Now it looks like this. Fucking depressing.
>>2864843This is correct. A study done decade ago said average income from standing on the median at the crossroads in a larger city was around 100$ per 8 hours. Sometimes 100$ in 4 hours if near a mall or where people with money are settled in, retirement communities, high income housing acreage ( think of Nancy Gurthie in Tucson who went missing).Tucson passed a ordinance that outlawed panhandling, begging at all street median or stoplights.Fuck the homeless. No money for non whites, younger than 60.However I can't stop myself from giving a dollar to some old White codger, because I figure if a WhiteMan is begging in his old age, at least you can be sure he had a lifetime of self reliance and working.Anything else I wouldn't give a dime.
>>2864597I'm sorry brother. We all grew up in places that don't exist anymore. I don't know how to help.
>>2864597I gotta agree with you OP.>one of the last times i visit my great grandmother>she lives in the country, central texas>the river that used to represent the lifeblood of the community has been polluted>total brain drain>entire land is replaced by adventure get-aways and AIR BNBS>tfw no more nature just pollution and trash>sit upon old tubing rock and wonder where it all went wrongIt's pretty sad, nobody cares for the environment anymore especially in small towns.RIP Anon.
>>2864597trump probably sole it
>>2867979Now here's a man I can respect
>>2864597>Sit and wonder why?Boomers and Jews. All bad news.
>my town doesnt have my consent to change!>it and the people in it need to stay the same forever so that my vibes are not harshed!
>>2868055Yeah, destroying nature for development is based and cool.
>>2868197>tha vacant lot near muh house is nature!zoomies were a mistake.
