The police did this to Philadelphia! The police and courts took everything they could from these people forcing them to live on the streets while no longer caring about themselves! Same thing is starting to happen in other states where there are abusive police and courts leaving people with no choice but to live on the streets.... QUALIFIED IMMUNITY IN ITS ENTIRETY; "Must be ABOLISHED " ...!
Sad is that there are people who own property, work, and try to raise a family and your kid has to walk thru this mess just to go to school! Why don't they do this in front of the mayor's house

Agree entirely !! The US government has failed miserably to adress this horrific problem. This kind of human tragedy, left unattended, will in time, destroy the nation from within.
Mi pregunta es??de dónde buscan el dinero para pasar todo el tiempo drogados??..es triste, muy triste ver que eso esté pasando en este país,,una gran potencia que se involucra en muchas cosas,,sin más comentarios..Pregunto, por qué dejan florecer eso en las calle,??..nadie tiene solución??..pienso que si,,pero lleva tiempo y dinero,,entonces a nadie le importa..es hora que el Gobierno tome cartas en el asunto y detenga todo eso..mis oraciones por todos..Dios los bendiga..
I live in Los Angeles I walk right by, I don't even try to avoid the zombies in any way. They don't make eye contact with me, I don't make eye contact with them. We peacefully co-exist.
This is unacceptable..How is this even allowed to exist really? Poor reflection on whoever governs this city.. He should be ashamed of himself.. Just horrible.
This is not just a city problem, it is in nearly every large city nation wide. A government which allows this horror scenario to go from bad to worse should not be governing anything !!
@@worldgonemad1977 The further away from me the junkies are the better. I have first hand experience with junkies drunks and crack heads. I still say Junkies are funny.
Is a trip to Walmart THAT much better? Rampant obesity, public tantrums, ugly rainbow hair? Granted, if they’re not riding a scooter they’re at least vertical….

I'm 17 years old and I live and grew up with autism in Philadelphia and let me tell you I've experienced nothing but trauma around here not just Kensington.I get nightmares and can't sleep at night because of it.And the fact that I still have to deal with this almost every day makes me furious and depressed every time.I have to go to school dealing with this,I have to spend time with my family dealing with this.I feel lonely and so left out all of the time.And I've been trying to keep my head up to cope with this but it hits really hard.I experienced a lot of gun violence and fights whether it's on the news or even worse my family,they honestly can't resist staying here for the rest of their lives and I just become a problem to them for absolutely no reason when i tell them the truth about the streets of Philadelphia.I honestly hate living here with a passion and I don't recommend anyone wanting to move here sorry but that's my opinion.And I'm not saying this to be preachy,this is really how I feel.😢😢
please stay strong minded. i understand its difficult but thank GOD your eyes are open. just be happy in knowing you are not like the wicked that you are witnessing. keep your wits about you wherever you are and move along as swiftly as possible. many major cities have this type of problem. your situation will change for the better one day. be patient. at age 17 its difficult to see ahead because you are living in mostly present and living with your situation as a young adult. there are things you can try to change your situation. you could be a helpful volunteer missionary and move with any of the groups and they support your daily life. or look to see where your nearest JOB CORPS is. you can live and study there short term, leading to a job. once you have income, you can rent a room or save to buy a car and live out of your car, even if it is a small car. you will NOT be stuck as long as you keep searching for a way to better your situation. EYES WIDE OPEN !! the rest of us who have our eyes open understand your predicament.
Wishing you well! You sound very bright. Your time will come to move on. It sounds horrible at the moment, and being a teenager can be hard enough, but stay healthy. Maybe you can learn to do calming relaxation techniques....help you to sleep, finish study and be balanced. Then you can make better decisions than those around you.
@@nileshalinger yes there is a way. The USA could work with the Mexican army and destroy the cartels in Mexico, and it would be over. We choose not to. no idea why.
Will never understand why they shoot up, knowing that they'll get the bends, and don't go sit down. If they should live until middle age, they will have massive back trouble. Might not be able to walk.
Lots of them enjoy the pain of needles, they have a tattoo parlor a couple blocks away run by former heroin addicts and 75% of their customers are former addicts getting tattoos where they used to shoot up on their arms , necks and legs.
the bends is Nitrogen in the blood from being in a pressurized situation, like underwater. The inability to bend, from being a junkie...is caused from...well never mind, you died before you got the junkie bends.
they are under the influence of xylazine, which is a bovine tranquilizer. This substance is added to the Fentanyl by the drug producers to extend the effects of the drug. It cause paralysis of the upper body but leaves the lower body mobile. Thus, the slumped over contortionist thing.
It’s the same in England now, we £6 million per day taking in asylum seekers, but we war veterans on our street that are homeless. What has happened to our world? It’s shameful, these poor people are lost with drug. 😮😮😮😮🇬🇧🇬🇧🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😱
Instead of worrying about net zero and the other nonsense. This is what the entire world should be trying to tackle. How did we allow people to become so broken. This is disgusting and disturbing to watch 😢😢
Will someone write me a 25000 check so i can run down there and cash it! Wtf are you kidding me, no Id required in that neighborhood? Never seen anything like it
As non American,Living in so called developong country in southeast asia,so sad and heart breaking to see this that I don't see like this in my country,why does the goverment not care for them,what I watch on TV ,America sends billions to Ukraine,Taiwan,lecturing other nations what to do while in your backyard what a mess,sad but true,hope the best for good Americans🙏
They do it to themselves and the local government allows it. They should all be locked up until they get off the drugs and if they keep using drugs keep them locked up. They are pissing away their lives.
Right. Also read that..part of the scenary. I wonder how many addicts still have their ID.Or is it that what they are always looking for in their bags..
As I said before the whole area is involved and have been for years. The stores clean all the dirty money. All the panhandled $ 1&5 bills are changed for $10 & $20 in the stores. No dealers bring sweaty grubby 1s & 5s to their guy. $10, $20 & $50 is what they will take.. Why do you think there's always a queue in corner stores all the time. They ain't buying essentials that's for sure.
Land of the forgotten 😢 most of these people forgot they had a life outside of drugs and most just have family who forgot about them because of their addiction
I saw a little child in the backround, oblivious to whats going on...hey I dont judge, never will, but people trying to live a straight life who also must have problems are having to live and see and smell the trash left behind everyday!!! If I was a shop owner I';d be out there with a high powered hose! my dad once said, if you gotta have your poison make sure its YOURS dont leave your shit behind for others to see, clean up ya mess, and yes I can talk, I,ve been to hell and back with my addiction
Everyone looks in worse shape than ever. Makes me mad to see that happy little kid there, why on earth would his parents take him to that sh*thole? I hope Child Protection Services step in and help that child.
look, people still live there, and not necessarily all are drug addicts. Would you advocate taking a child from it's mother just because they live there? ain't gonna happen, and if you do then you better go to West Virginia and start rounding them up.
What will shock most Europeans most, is the large number of relatively young white females involved in this appalling, almost horrific scenario. Can the US afford to let this go on and get worse.
oh ya. and check out LA skid row, or Las Vegas people who live the tunnels. *Escape From New York* shit is going on right now. Pliskin isn't going to save us, either.
There is a song called "Castles," performed by Tom MacDonald. I do realize Tom may not be the flavor for everyone. It is worth a listen. We ought put our phones awayl so we can ask. Ask if we can help. If the Zombies decline for the sake of public decency in front of our children they must be placed into recovery centers that are transparent and work and nourish one back to health or may continue elsewhere for continued healing, for the sake of our towns, our way of life. Glad it is being spotlighted but it just might be time for some tough love America. Thanks RU-vid for hosting such important information.
I think they should have a special patrol to move them every hour .they shouldn't be able to loiter. Hose the street down..if arrested made to clean up trash and paint graffiti.
Hoy se celebra el dia de la virgencita de los angeles en mi pais en nombre de ella pido sanidad en ese lugar hoy 2 de agosto que ella pueda hacer el milagro🙏🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷
This is beyond pathetic. To Allow our Country to be OVER RUN BY DRUGS .. I Believe if we were SERIOUS ABOUT STOPPING DRUGS FROM COMING INTO OUR COUNTRY, IT WOULD NEVER HAVE GOTTEN THIS BAD .. But We Know That THERE HAS BEEN SCUMMY POLITICS THAT ALLOWS THIS TO CONTINUE !!!!
I am wondering how many addicts are living in that area? We had here in Amsterdam in the end 1970e ties a area (Zeedijk) a no go area with heroine addicts ,but not like this in Philadelphia.
Streets of Philadelphia? More like streets of poverty. Drugs, prostitution, homelessness, AIDS probably too. Not a nice place. I live in Coventry in UK. And theres a road only yards from me that tends to have a lot of prostitutes at night. But that's nothing compared to this.
Легализовав наркотики, тем самым ваше правительство борится с лишним населением страны. Не нужно создавать рабочие места, платить пособия и так далее. Поздравляю. Мечты сбываются. Свобода, демократия.
The countries West call 3rd world are way better than this now, everyone is fed and everyone goes home in the evening and they live happily with what they got. 😊
Tnx4d update of what's happening in Kensington Ave Philadelphia. So sad to see homeless addicts on the side walks. They are helpless and in miserable condition. Drugs destroyed their precious life 📺
In all these people there’s the potential for Beautiful Contributing people. Our elected government is too busy providing Frog research and sending Billions to fund other countries wars, just to name a couple. These people aren’t disgusting, it’s the political machine in Washington DC, the democrat machine.
I feel justified in my comment. I was addicted to heroin for almost 10 years. Luckily I got clean before Fentanyl got big in Utah. 5 years clean in November. I have zero cravings for opiates. Jail and prayer changed my life.
Don't get lost in the wrong way of life. to depend on drugs Drugs are poisonous and destructive. death and mental suffering of those close to Don't be fooled, experiment. Love family, love every life in the family. Don't drink, don't try, don't try. Do not use drugs and intoxicants of any kind.
It's damn sad. Every one of those people were a little baby at one point, getting love, and attention, with people that love them. Imagine if those people were your kids. That is the sad part. It's all their fault however, they are in charge of their own lives, but nonetheless, I wish better things for them.
There's a lot people out there messed up on drugs that were physically, emotionally and sexually abused...by people who claimed to love them. They weren't all loved and cared for and they didn't have happy lives. Many grew up in foster homes and detention centers from age 5. Tell me how a parent can give up a kid or the system can take a child from it's mother and then put it into worse situations then what anyone who hasn't been through could EVER understand. What about people who don't want to be in pain anymore and the meds the doctor is prescribing just don't work anymore. You don't have to abuse medication in order it not to work anymore. That's just how it goes.
So glad for the silence in your content it has a screaming quality all its own ,comments.. drug education, and incongruent music in other’s content is way too much, and very often disrespectful and humiliating
@@jamesdempsey9477 That's true. And if they really did a major major crackdown, all that does is move the problem to other areas. What's odd, just 12 blocks away, Fishtown is having a boom and doesn't have this problem. Obviously the city leaders want them to remain in this area.
I like your video. Many people make video's like this to open eyes. When I started watching these videos, my eyes opened wide. You see people shooting up or passed out on a curb and the cops just drive by. I watch videos of poor countries in unimaginable conditions, but you don't see junkies shooting up or zombies doing the crab walk. It's hard to believe this is America. I bet they all receive checks thanks to us.
