Anytime progressives spend money on a problem, they make the situation so much worse. And they usually condone criminality in the process. So rather than punish “unhoused” people for destroying the city’s traffic light system, Oakland officials have just decided to replace them with stop signs.

“Unhoused” degenerates have been stealing and tampering with the copper in stoplights to power their tents with electricity. Because in Oaklands, abhorrent behaviors are condoned, while law-abiding citizens bear the burden. Subsequently, what was probably already a traffic-heavy city will now have so much more traffic in busy intersections because the system has been destroyed by both the “unhoused” and city officials.

According to the Daily Mail:

The city of Oakland recently removed traffic lights from one busy intersection and replaced them with stop signs after the electrical boxes that controlled the traffic lights were repeatedly tampered with and copper from them was stolen.

Local residents and those who own businesses in the area say the issue with the traffic lights stems from the nearby homeless encampment, which has grown over the years.

The owner of a vehicle repair shop on the corner of the intersection, Tam Le, said the city is signaling that it is ‘giving up on us,’ by installing the stop signs.

The city gave up a looooong time ago.

It is the latest in a string of copper thefts in California. Earlier this month, videos emerged of thieves ransacking Tesla charging stations for the metal.

The community should not have to bear the burden of the city enabling their behavior as they “fix” the problems they create. This is pathetic.

Here’s a thought, how about they remove the tent encampments? That way law-abiding citizens get to have their cake and eat it, too. There’s no reason why “unhoused” addicts get to live as they please at the expense of everyone else.

The worst part is that residents will probably complain about the stop signs for as long as they are there, yet they will STILL vote for the same people responsible for this mess. So don’t be surprised to expect more of the same.

It’s incomprehensible how much of a mess the city will become in five years.
