Nobody on the streets is going to give Josiah a pass bc he’s mentally ill and only 20. If he wants to live on the streets he has to abide by the rules.
A older man will never allow a kid to disrespect him. These kids have no respect for their elders and that’s not okay. Respect goes along way. I’m happy he apologized and said he talked to Josiah’s now maybe he’ll look out for him. Prayers for them all🙏🏾🤞🏾
I love how humble he was to apologize also I love love love their spirits regardless of their situation 💯💯💯 God def gon show up and show out sooner than expected 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Old or young, you can't go around talking to anyone crazy, this is the life Josias chose, his Mom and Dad wants him home but this is what he chooses, mental or not these streets don't love no one back..
The best comment on here ! I don’t feel sorry one bit 💯 it’s unfortunate but shi like you said that’s the path he chose , so he gotta take everything that comes with it
Although Josias, was assaulted & injured badly 😔 Im glad that dude apologized, I believe it was sincere. Josias…Stop running up on people, and playing bad & tough…It’s Always somebody out there Tougher than you. Calm that act down, before you get seriously hurt. Marcus! 🤜🏾🤛🏾💯🥰
Right, ole school ain’t gonna let that young buck handle him... If someone 20-something run up on me, I'm swinging whatever…. Will y'all be ok with Josea beating him? At least no guns are involved.
@@aliceangel8768 Josias was seriously hurt. I used “ seriously hurt”, Instead of Critically injured, Fatally or Severely impaired…For a reason. I’m definitely not minimizing his injury, that pulled on my heartstrings 😢 But, Josias has got to learn to Control Himself & Make better decisions. The only person that you can control is yourself, not another human being…especially Another Man. 🤷🏽♀️
Why y’all acting like Josias a little kid?? It’s 17 year olds locked up in prison with GROWN MEN and Josias like 20??? That’s a grown man, he be walking around with kitchen knives and all type of stuff. He on the STREET and in the street you can be seen as a “grown man” at 15 because you just as much a threat. I understand y’all don’t like seeing that but this is real life reality.
To everyone complaining about Marchs laughing/vibing during the interview: I suppose many of you have never heard of de-escalation. Sprinkling light-hearted or even nervous laughter throughout the interview resulted in a positive outcome, with promises of non-violence in the near future. For everyone sitting on their rumps complaining, YOU go run in that mans face with a CAMERA and interview notes. Go ask him why he committed assault with a deadly weapon, like you are 5-0. You probably wouldn't be able to make it to your car in one piece-if at all...
MY SENTIMENTS EXACTLY HE KNOWS THE STREETS AND HE DEFINITELY KNOWS HOW TO WORK EM. MARCUS HAS RESPECT ON HIS NAME SO FOLK JUST NEED TO CHILL& LET HIM HANDLE THIS SHIT N
Thank you for your comment. I swear some people on here just need to stfu, stay in their lanes, and stop trying to tell this man how to interview when they have less than zero skill and knowledge and know nothing about these streets and how to maneuver in them.
"He could've killed him, he could've killed him..." Yeah, but he DIDN'T. Josius has a history of beating on women, calls himself "fighting at the pool", loves crack, and recently set some shet on fire. Josius has a better chance of killing himself. In life, you don't get to decide how a person responds to your words, threats, disrespect, or behavior. Josius is out there in the streets acting like he's on a prolonged Spring Break. Ain't nothing sweet out there! He will learn or he won't last.
Marcus doesn’t have to do anything. Josia’s parents, josia himself, or anybody that watched the video could report it. It’s public information! He stupid for admitting to it, but he was so proud of what he did.
Marcus is smart because if I was the daddy. Now I know who had attacked my son. He's 50, and some grown men can handle it. Josias has no self-control, also. That experience will cause him to learn to shut up.
Here's the thing....young, old, black, white, or brown, if you run your mouth enough in the streets you're going to run into someone's fist or the barrel of someone's gun. Luckily for Josiah it wasn't a gun this time.
I hate that for Josias but these older folks not playing.. It's too many youngsters trying them so I understand but I also am glad that he recognized Josias situation
I wanted to be mad at this man for doing that to Josias but there is always 2 sides and he seems like a genuine man im just thankful he understands Josias mental to say i didn't know about his mental still pray for Josias to get it together one day
1. Old G didn’t need to apologize to josiah , his father or his Grandfather. Josiah came at the wrong one the wrong way.. Result ha got that ass beat like he deserved. Just cause he on a RU-vid channel means nothing. I’m gonna call you on this one Marcus. Old G was in the right and Josiah was in the wrong. Maybe Josiah will wake up
Your statemen is ridiculous. He did the right thing by apologizing. An older man should be mature enough to exercise restraint when it comes to mouthy youngsters. Civilized people don't violently react to words alone. But just like most criminals, thugs, and drug addicts, they are adults physically but children mentally. 😶
I'm gone say this. If he got energy to be married (she outta be shame laid up homeless with a man) and to build a makeshift home as intricate as this, he can get off the streets.
He been to “chain gang”(prison) 7 times. He made that makeshift home like that because he institutionalized and he comfortable like that because he institutionalized. And that woman probably not gonna get much better than that. They actually equally yoked 😂
You don't get it. These people have mental issues that won't jive in most 9 to 5 work environments. Hell, most normal people don't want to work the excruciatingly boring micro managed 9 to 5 job. 😶
Honey, if were homeless and FOUND resources to build a mini home and people wanted to acknowledge that I should extend the energy I invested in making the house into building a meaningful life they’d be justified in doing so.
He seems like a sensible guy, I actually liked his first interview too. Every homeless population in every city has a variety of different people some of them are sheep who are new to the streets,some have mental health issues,some of them out there playing,some are addicts,some are people who just fell on hard times,some are ex cons,etc. The point is things like this are bound to happen. I hope this man gets the housing he needs and I hope Josias gets the help he needs. Best of luck to both of them💕
@aliceangel8768 I agree he just better be glad that Josias didn't go to the police and press charges on him for assault with a deadly weapon. Marcus asked him the future not handle it with violence but he definitely was wrong in this situation. I recently started watching Atlanta Street interviews I live here in Atlanta I really wish Josias would get his stuff together and move back with his family or perhaps get his own place or do something positive with his life.😊
@@aliceangel8768u obviously missed everything I said in my comment. Although he could've made a different choice to not use a metal pipe,we dot know if his thinking was altered by drugs,mental health,etc. It's many different typed of people n the streets and he told yall he's been to the chain gang. Josias should have left this man alone.
@@stephaniewhite1040the guy said Josias approached him 3 times, what did yall expect him to give him hug lol...these are the type of things that happen in the streets. It's not fair out there,that's why they need to force ppl like josias into treatment so he can make other decisions that better suit him.
I have never read a comment stating Josias should go to jail for hurting his girlfriends or to send those videos to the police or their fathers. They are someone's little girls.
There's no proof that Josius beat his ex's up. When did any of those women look bruised or beat up in their interviews ? It's their word against his but this man actually admitted to attacking Josius that's the difference.
Josias was wrong to put his hands on those young women and I believe karma came back to him as a result. IMO That old man who beat him probably panicked about a possible retaliation and moved his furniture to another hiding place.
@@Juelstone I truly think so, I heard it in his voice when he seen him this last time, But like a parent we have to stay strong to keep them strong and pushing (his probably looking as Marcus as a Big Brother or something) ❤️🙏🏽 Josiah can't see a display of weakness because he's weak ❤️🙏🏽 I Pray he's trying his hardest to take in what Marcus is truly trying to get to him❤️🙏🏽😔
If it was a straight fist fight. Josias might have gotten the best of him. This might be a wake up call for Josias. Mom and Dad come get him together ❤️
@@pillcosby3967 I feel Josias mouth wrote a check his a$$ couldn't cash. And he deserved a ass kicking getting up in grow folks face. The Pipe was a sucker move. Knuckle up, why use a weapon. And correct he is a womanizer and physically abuses them. I'm not a fan. Just speaking on what I've observed.
@bridget6032 rite but to be honest josias ain't even like that fr u seen the other dude punk him the whole video or a id, add the numerous videos of josias being beat up he just a talker fr
I don't like the fact the guy beat up Josias but it sounds like Josias was trying to punk and bully that man because Josias views him as being weak and old. The fact this man apologized to Josias before this interview tells me he felt bad and has remorse. It's about survival when in these streets. It's apparent Josias isn't street savvy because he wouldn't keep getting involved in all this unnecessary madness.
Honestly if he has mental issues he’s probably not aware of what he’s doing and how far he’s taking the situation plus it’s a good chance he probably was high on something as well but with him assaulting him yea he was but dude was probably in fear of some young hot tempered dude getting in his face people like that are unpredictable and can turn violent very quickly
I’m glad that man was remorseful about the situation. He was probably acting in self defense. Even though he is homeless, that’s still like Josias walking up to his house starting beef and drama. If someone walked up on your home like that, would you do the same? Josias needs to be careful. Many homeowners have guns in GA. I pray he gets delivered before he makes a careless mistake and has to face serious repercussions.
Why is everyone saying the guy should be locked up? It’s the streets and you live street life to survive and you can’t be going up to people starting shit for no reason or they will take you down and set you straight. Josias is a person who needs to calm his mouth down and mind his business. I like both the older gentleman and Josias but right is right and the older gentleman apologized.
Naw just because it’s the streets don’t mean you can go around beating up people. Especially with a deadly weapon.Somebody retaliate on him then his supporters will be crying. Talking about he ain’t deserve it.🙄
@hotmomma1552 pretty sure old head ain't going around disrespecting people for no reason also pretty sure sumthin will happen to josias again before anything happens to buddy 🤦🏿
🤜🏾🤛🏾💯🙏🙏 People are upset “ He’s a kid” 🙄 Yes he is, but Josias need to stay in a kids place, you can’t be out in the streets, grown one minute & a kid, when it’s convenient…It doesn’t work like that. Ain’t No love out in the streets, But you will display some Respect or, not. 🤷🏽♀️🙄 Everybody isn’t going to stand there, and let Josias cuss them & bully the hell out of them. This is harsh lesson, I pray he learns from it.🤷🏽♀️
Exactly!....but, "Chronologically" (age wise) he's 20 years old, and that's NO kid. However, mentally/psychologically he is a kid. In my opinion.@@cynthiajones6013
I mean at first I was angry about what happened to Josia but this man seemed real and I believe him … I dont agree with the hitting of the pipe but it’s the streets him going to apologize says alot tho … he wasn’t aware he had a mental illness … it’s a sad situation hopefully josia learns from this .
I understand that y’all feel sorry for Josias but it’s a dog eat, dog world out there. This isn’t Josias first incident.. it’s a sad situation but that’s the environment he’s in and he’s NOT ready to get out of it.
THANK YOU Marcus---from the top and bottom of my heart for speaking to this man and helping to keep Josias safe. You know I don't like you---but I have to respect you on this one.
He right much as i like josias if he called him them names it is what it is at that point ys older dudes live by a difference creed these youngsters just dont know
No he dont a jerk. The problem with folks is they think they can talk stupid to people! Young or old! Popularity or not! Josias or not! Idfaf learn how to talk to folks..PERIOD
Josias' azz is always into some ish! My people say, "If everywhere you go smells like 💩, you might wanna check the bottom of your shoes." I appreciate this grown man being, just that and apologizing, but the folks who seem to be so concerned for his well-being needs to do something about it!
I feel sorry for Josias For all of those saying this man should be locked up. Y’all see how Josias runs around uncontrollably. I’m pretty sure he’s worse when the camera is not on him & he out there high. Eventually that was gonna catch up to him. Better that old man than someone with a gun. There are rules out there on those streets. He has to learn and abide by them if that’s where he’s chooses to stay.
I understand but just because someone is using harsh words, does not give a person the right to beat them with a metal pipe. I can see if he feared for his life or Josias attacked him 1st.attacking someone verbally should never result to violence in my opinion.
That kid done beat up all his ladies , did that make it right.. maybe he got his karma. I'm praying for him but if he don't slow it down ..... What's next
@lashurediscussion4970 u must believe in fairy tales and delusions to believe people shouldn't use violence to stop mental and verbal abuse!!! Most of the time speaking respectfully to people who does that to you to stop, only makes it worse!!! Then they want to attack, or if your outnumbered and they rush you quick before u can react to defend yourself!!!
You are a wonderful human being to be able to get out in the trenches and really converse with people that are dealing with daily struggles of homelessness, addiction, mental illness etc. love and light to you
😂😂😂what if he was just a fallen angel fr? Making a mockery of the disobedient children of God, simply to prove a point to God that He shouldn’t have made humanity? Relax…okay?
You do understand he gets paid to do this right? He’s not doing this out of the kindness of his heart and he’s not helping these people he hasn’t linked with social services or anywhere that can help these people he doesn’t feed these folks being water or anything
This man had to do what he had to do to command respect. Josiah’s needs mental health. I feel like this is what you were trying to save him from! It is what it is!
@aliceangel8768 don't forget who disrespected this man in front of his woman over control of a public place who also had a pipe in his hand can't make up the stupidity
@@aliceangel8768a defenseless man with serious mental an anger issues can be very dangerous as well dude was probably in fear for his life and didn’t know what Josiah might have tried to do
I’ll be in Atl at the end of the month …. Why am I compelled to find Josias , talk to him and give him some food a hug and encouragement?! Seriously I already googled one of the spots you said you and he were near. Josias YOU ARE CHOSEN ! The true chosen ones have the Biggest battles and come out on the other side !!!!! I love that this man apologized on camera and hopefully had an understanding 💜💜💜
You not the only one. When I visit Atlanta I really want to try to find Josius put him in a hotel for a night or two just so he can get off the streets and have a goodnight sleep. I really think he is Blessed! He just needs help. Does anybody know where he hangs out at ?
the chosen ones are Israelites( black Latino and Native American people) the real chosen is the elite of those people. Isaiah 10:22 “For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant of them shall return: the consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness.” Zechariah 13:8 “And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein.” King James Version (KJV)
I retracted my comment calling him a bully, I'm glad he recognised that Josieph has some mental health issues, thank you Marcus for putting yourself out there for josieth (can't spell his name I pray for him an Chris especially,them 2 definitely have my heart ❤️
Sad that this happened to Josiah. But glad to know and see in the recent update he was sent home to his Grandparents on Sept 11 thanks to Marcus. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Yes this guy deserves some praises for what he did...hope you get better my mann Just found out this guy and his homeless friends are all apart of the homeless crip nation he’s the leader
Dear Gentleman in the video. Please ignore the negative comments. I understand why you did what you did. Please stay safe, and I pray you get your housing soon! ❤❤❤ (If I lived on the street I would beat up anyone trying to bully me too, or make me look weak to the wolves out there. It's survival of the fittest, and you sir, are surviving so dignified like a true King. Good luck once again 🥰 and thank you for dampening any simmering beef there could have been @Marcus. 🥰)
Or Josiah shouldn’t be getting up in peoples faces talking shit this is the streets an people aren’t gonna fight fair especially if the person coming up to them is the aggressor
Josia shouldn’t be popping off like he does BUT this individual should have NEVER used a metal pipe to hit him. Actually he could be in big trouble with a charge (deadly weapon) it’s BS
He provided the young man a teaching moment. Don't tell him what he can and can't do without state authority. I know you get it. It's the streets. Young man has decided to learn street lessons the hard way. Now, the young man is better informed on how he acts around his elders.
Alot of women in the comment sections don't understand if you talk to a grown man with that type of energy .You're gonna get the grown man reaction with same type of energy back simple as that. Hes not a baby anymore. He's choosing to live that street life & this what comes with it.
This is a testimony of life and it's just like biblical times and I pray that Josias gets right with himself and that situation becomes a life lesson 🙏🏾💪🏾
Wow I really respect this here because he did apologize and you have to be so careful how you treat people we living in some crazy days so I salute him he didn't have to do that he apologized and that's good❤😢
I like how you follow up on these things. Some things you do I typically don't agree with. Like rehashing their trauma can be very problematic for them. I don't understand if it's intriguing to you or if you have an angle but I wish it was clearer. But I commend you for the work you do because it's important for them to not be the forgotten people. Also we can get a real look at Atlanta and see it's not just all glitz n glamor
Hey host of ASI, You are an amazing person and I hope and pray that you are safe. I would love to be your cameraman for free. I’m retired from USDA and USA Boxing coach in MD. These videos are from the heart and you are sent by the most high!!
None of you was there, yeah he might’ve been wrong for hitting Josias with the pipe but once again none of us was there. Josias was probably talking shit & walking up on that man
@@tranquilshorestravelagency9641 I’m not saying that but we don’t know the man that beat Josais with the pipe, we can’t say what he should’ve done or not do… when it’s the heat of the moment you never know what will happen. I’m not saying what that man did is r correct but I can’t say he’s wrong because he reacted how he reacted to someone he claimed keep walking up on him talking ish an we have seen how wild Josais is. Everyone that Marcus has interviewed that have came in contact with Josais said he throws tantrums
A real man to apologize. 👏🏽👏🏽He too realizes that Josias is a bit mentally challenged. So sorry that he (Josias) is getting beat up, in those dangerous streets.🙏🏼🙏🏼
Josias gonna learn the hard way. U talking to a grow man like u really about that life he lucky he didn’t get kilt out there!!! He think bc he have Marcus n a few followers that he’s unstoppable nahhh that’s not how it works I hope he learned a lesson.
It seems like some of y’all ignore the fact that Josiah confront this man first and tried to bully that man. That man did what he need to do to protect himself. Josiah needs to stop going around acting like he can whoop everyone Azz.
Josia"s is not a chronological child, but he is a child mentally. Just like this man didn't know Josia's mental condition, Josia doesn't know this man or anyone he runs into mental issues. When you are out here, be careful which bear you poke.
Seriously. God is watching all of this go down and I have a feeling things are going to boomerang back in ways that are unexpected. We’ve gone way behind the limit here! This is a gossip channel, not a platform to help restabilize people. It’s been a year and Josias has gone so far down hill. And all Marcus can do is laugh and get the tea from the streets. It’s so frustrating to watch at this point but now I’m invested to make sure Josias is still alive 😩😩😩🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I realize that a stranger bought Josiah food and the guy recording him didn’t speaks volumes he seems like he does this for money and everything is tickled funny to him that’s wild to me what level do he really care for people or do he actually really care
People need to learn yesterday's behavior isn't tolerated today !! So if you think People playing with you keep playing and find out. Today people's has nothing to lose anymore they tired and taking you out if its comes to it.
That part his old ass was already enraged he could have killed him, and yes Josiah’s need to go some where to get some dam help better yet he need to take his ass home. All the shit Josiah’s been doing end up getting him killed.
That's bullshit how he not know Josias was young? You can look at him, hear him and tell he's young smh. If Josias attacked him first I could understand the violent reaction but he didn't say anything about Josias hitting him first, all he kept saying was him verbally going off, that doesn't justify violent behavior.
SALUTE MARCUS THANKS FOR KEEPING THE PEACE 🙏🏽💙 JOSIAS HAVE TO LEARN TO RESPECT OTHER PPL THAT'S HOMELESS LIVING IN THE STREETS..SOME OF THOSE PPL HAVE MENTAL ISSUES AND STRESS, DRUGS..THE PRESSURE CAUSES PPL TO POP OFF🙏🏽BLESSING TO ALL🙏🏽
