Even back in the 80s, it was obvious Phoenix wanted to be Los Angeles when it grew up. Just, back then, without any freeways. (I-10 ended out in Buckeye.) Now, we have plenty of freeways, and California refugees — not all of whom sold million dollar crap shacks to move here. I speak of the winos, derelicts, drifters, drug addicts, hobos, tramps, transients, vagrants, jakeys … BUMS … euphemistically referred to as “homeless” people. Wandering into traffic, throwing garbage in the canal (saw that yesterday), engaging in “interpretive dance”, trying to sidekick a kid on a bike (saw that a few years ago). Granted, Phoenix is NOWHERE near the Hobbesian level of the City of Angels, but it’s working on it. Playing catchup. Check out a few more zombie shenanigans below …
