Default So I've been Watching the 1st Season of "CHiPs"

Observations:

~virtually everyone, including the criminals, are all white
~very few Mexicans, Ponch seems to be the only Puerto Rican
~virtually no black people
~no alphabet people
~no crappy, pothole infested roads
~highways, other than the staged accidents, are clear, not overly congested
~plenty of chases, but nobody physically resists arrest

This was a late 70's depiction of California. WTF happened, 45 years later?

Ronald Reagan was governor of California from 1967 to 1975. All the black people were still in prison when Chips was filmed.

The R's basically walked away from CA and let La Raza have it.

Even the smaller pockets of sanity are now seeing an influx of organized illegals commuting into their neighborhoods stealing hundreds-of-thousands USD of residents belongings.

You believe your neighborhoods are safe with this invasion?
Uhhhh no!
Alarms and cameras folks!

THIS is increasing in frequency;

I will never knowingly kill a home intruder.

It'll be like it never happened.

~very few fat people
~nobody had tattoos
~Police were seen and respected as authority figures and not ridiculed
~any car in any scene missing a hubcap is going to go through a trailer
~69 Pontiac GTO's make excellent ramp vehicles to jump cars off of.
