Homeless are back on Venice Beach update february 2022 

Mike'll put his nose right in there! A true journalist!

keeping trash off the beach is way to important not to cover it. Cleaner beaches leads to the less likelihood of beach goers also leaving trash

He's not part of the solution he's neutral, if you watch other channels like the guy in Philly, when they video tape a homeless person they give them 10$ gift card for McDonald's, socks, sandwiches, ect. Profiting off the homeless which is what he is doing is a gray especially if your not helping. If there were no homeless this channel would be pretty dead besides movie stuff. That's why the Adam the woo episode is the best, been following Adam since 2010. Fyi 6mil views is about 32k in ad revenue.... 1k in food gift cards for the homeless help wouldn't hurt him since he's profiting off them.

@@nomadfishermanak You think he should give them money, gift cards ect? You think that making content regardless if its filming the homeless doesnt take time editing? He may not be part of the solution but neither are you. What they need to do is take them all to the desert and let them build their own crack house sand dunes, if they dont want to be part of society and make a honest living and contribute then we shouldnt have to pick up after their mess either.

He's showing the truth. Nobody wants that.

Where is his store?

@@nikkisixx6042 it's on Venice beach strip

It’s right on the boardwalk it’s all black in the front It says German and Venice on it when he’s not there all the time we came in July and he was just riding his bike to the store so we went over to visit him and he was very very nice person very polite answered all my questions

Yessir

What!? No way!

you obviously don't live here. Don't believe TV

The government is the problem, not citizen activism.

Coin people are our true enemy.

@@DespurrZeiz whats that mean?

@@PNW_Sportbike_Life So you think that bad decisions and no self dignity is the governments fault?????

@@rarecandy3445 agree!

Were no homeless in the area?

@@belok177 Absolutely not. We did not have a homeless problem back then. I am not without sympathy but you have to want to help yourself before a change can happen.

@@gypsymom0819 So the victim is the problem?? Do you not think it's systematic at this point? The middle class has shrunk. And it is damn near impossible. Especially in LA to afford somewhere to live on 1 income b

@@cjstats1514 Where the fuck did I say the "victim" was the problem? There are a ton of social services out there but a person has got to want to pull themselves up. There are also jobs to be had but do you see these people filling out applications? As long as we continue to provide handouts they will continue to accept them FACT!!

@@gypsymom0819 "pull themselves up" I got my bingo card filled!

🤣🤣🤣Liberals are immune to reality: The challenge that liberals have with reality is that it confuses them. When life does not match their ideology, they begin to blame other people, the system, and of course conservatives. The liberal worldview is incompatible with people who still have hopes, dreams and desires to make a better life for themselves and their offspring. Hence, liberals get angry when their odd-notioned theories are not embraced or, more likely, rejected. [ ] In their mind, anyone who disagrees must be mentally inferior or defective. The possibility that they might be wrong is never considered. Facts, history and common-sense are mere inconveniences to these true believers. They make their own reality! the world or the state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an idealistic or notional idea of them. "he refuses to face reality" let's go Brandon!

@@r32guy10 another political cheerleader

Americans are too busy attacking each other to care enough for homeless people.

Yeah the problem with Americans is they keep voting for these far left fools

@@r32guy10 hello clown

GiV is the ONLY reporter of the homeless situation in Venice Beach.

You are such an awesome person. I love watching you! Love always Tara from Providence R.I. Stay Safe!!!!

@Artificial Hobos ?

This dude don’t help these people . All he do is try to get views . He don’t help the homeless . This dude just needs to go find a gym

@@wantmore2586 He brings attention to the homeless, which is a lot. You need to find a GED study class.

Reagan signed the illegal alien amnesty bill in 1986...before that homeless issue was not as 'overflowing' like now...oh fcking well

Feels like your husband was holding you back. Glad your doing good for yourself. You are very brave to be able to live out there on your own.

So sorry for the struggle for you and your husband

Glad you made it out of that situation.Good luck in the future.

Hello. You are an amazing person and are to be commended for your unsinkable spirit. My condolences for the loss of your husband. I know how that feels - it will be 15 years for me soon. May God continue to bless you and keep your husband in his care.

that really a story of hope, thanks for sharing, life is a fascinating journey

i think we all know its pass the buck poor mike

Makes sense, criminals doing bad stuff don't want to get exposed. That park was created with public funds. The homeless can go elsewhere, but they choose the publicly maintained clean beaches.

Biffa69 I can't understand it either. It's not like he's sneaking or spying--the places where they set up their tents and tarp homes are *public* They make it sound like he's creeping around in someone's yard! Living on public streets, beaches and parks, etc. is definitely not the place to be if its privacy they're wanting.

The homeless don’t know how to take responsibility

Unfortunately where we live we had the same problem at the library I watched a guy shoot up drugs on a tennis court right by the library unfortunately I don't have no kids but I would be mad if I had kids

It's only sad to ppl in the rat race. Look at the world. More ppl live like the ppl in tents than the ppl using endless resources in large houses and driving cars

that is the most idiotic thing i've ever heard. shows how completely detached you are from reality

That’s fine and dandy but don’t ruin our public places, and clean up your trash, it’s disgusting

@@vanderumd11 Are you totally behind. The idiots in the tent have of course No right to just chose to live in the Streets. And their shit and dirt they throw around. Should you clean Up after them?? They are awful lasy and dirty People that only think about themselves. Off the Streets with them all.

It's some kind of mental health issue that drives that perspective.

The mainstream media is bought and sold..they read from a script. Its not even news anymore. Just made up junk to sell a paper.

You are no longer homeless?

america allowed in more foreigners than the economy could support and thus working class citizens have to deal with both rich and poor outsiders combined. No other country in the world puts foreigners at or above the same level of its citizenry. Just one of the reasons why is america will implode in the near future...

@@keyfield8967 Please stop spreading Stupid unknowing people might actually believe it.

@@nb6584 I must have "triggered" one of you snowflakes...how much is this kraut eating off the Cali taxpayer like me?

well then f it. Cover the beach with dirtbag tents.

yes, it does kinda feel as if we'll never recover our cities again from this Night of the Living Dead scenario

You only live once !! You should write a book.!!

When you’re in treatment you see reality. You see beauty. You give & receive, consciously, love. You’re able to discover the goodness in others & actually feel that Love! You get to find out that you are courageous. That means you are a Human.

Sam Sung ☮️ I am glad you received help so you can live a better life. Good luck in the future. 🙏✝️🇺🇸

Oh my God I wish I could give your my friend's email! She REFUSES to seek proper mental health treatment, and I've thought since the time when she was 18, that she was dealing with some form of Schizophrenia. She's pushing 60 now, and about to be evicted for hoarding. She WILL NOT take medication to get her mind to the place where you are now. I am at my wits end with her, since she just doesn't listen. She's lucky she has the money to buy a home, but she is controlled by her hoard and her hoarding, which she refuses to admit to. Yes, stop the cycle!!!

@@factualbreakdown3072For a long time, I didnt try any medications because I thought I could treat my condition with self care alone. But when that finally failed, I attempted suicide and got placed in the psyche ward. They forced me to try the medications even though I was highly skeptical. But about 4 days went by and I finally started to see some results. Suddenly, I started realizing not everyone was out to get me and my overall mind started to clear. It took about 1 month till I was ready to try real life again. They released me under the condition that I seek ongoing outpatient services from a Psychiatrist and Therapist. That was almost 5 years ago and Ive been healthy all this time. But I didnt accept help till I was at my rock bottom because at that point the only place to go is up and theres nothing left to lose.

@@SamSung-jv3jm Thanks for the follow up. I guess my friend isn't at rock bottom yet, but she's close. SHE knows what her problem is - severe hoarding, to the point where she refuses to have anyone into her home but the Landlords, who have now had it with her after 5 years, and keep raising the rent to force her out. She needs to say some things out loud - not to me, but to a psychiatrist and not some telephone "therapist" who she probably isn't being honest with about her hoarding. THAT is the challenge to her housing situation now. She REFUSES to simply get rid of all of her "stuff!" Even if her brothers went in and got rid of everything "for her," she'd just fill up wherever she lived with "stuff" again. She needs to go into a Psych ward, but she isn't going to do so voluntarily. She'd never attempt suicide, since, quite frankly, she doesn't have the guts. I literally just tried talking to her honestly and she got off the phone quickly, since she "runs away" from reality. There is NO reason why she can't have a home for herself....except HERSELF. I'm so glad you saw fit to listen and that medication makes all the difference in the world. It would be that way for her as well, but she FEARS "the side effects," which is part of her sickness.

I guess it's going to get worse with the inflation hitting all around the Western world now.

@@eily_b hahahah somebody finally said it. Even grocery stores are getting effected, workers don't have anything to do because of no food to stock on shelves. Some counties have food and some don't, independent grocery stores are the only ones that are keep full stock daily

@@eily_b if you think that only the "western world" is getting hit with inflation then you've been keeping your head up your ass. the prices of everything in china has gone up so bad that people can't afford coal to keep their homes warm. people are buying old clothing out of the garbage to burn for heat and to cook food. unemployment in china has hit 200 million. there are places around the world where the price of gasoline has went up 2x over the last 2 years. we have pretty good here in the US. we in the US are just spoiled with everything being really cheap for decades.

@ItsStillRealToMe DamnIt typical socialist...

@ItsStillRealToMe DamnIt Thank you

It's all about what the law dictates. As long as homeless can legally set up then that's what they'll do. Wash, rinse, dry, repeat.........Wash, rinse, dry, repeat. Wash, rinse, dry, repeat. Wash, rinse, dry, repeat. Wash, rinse, dry, repeat. Wash, rinse, dry, repeat.

@@metalmike570 so you one of those “if we make homelessness illegal there wont be homelessness” guys?

@@coreyjblakey what they need is a revolution man

So what is your solution???

@@imagewavesurfphoto4567 give them shelter and allowance without conditions. Works rather well in places its been tried. Whats yours?

@@Traveling_Trefs It’s up to $900 so you can take that much in product without being arrested. It’s ridiculous.

@@AKBUTCHER0 I agree, but this is the world liberalism created...

@ItsStillRealToMe DamnIt Last time I checked it was Democrats running the state and passing liberal policies. It wasn't a conservative or republican that just raised taxes, that was Newsom.

@ItsStillRealToMe DamnIt Yes I said the world because we currently have a estimated 10.5 million illegal immigrants in the United States from multiple countries. The Biden administration is spending 60 million a month on just housing the children of these people. Imagine that money being spent on legal residents of this country and what a difference that would make. Republicans want America First, Democrats want a new voter base to remain in power, liberals want everything to be free and conservatives want people to earn it. Charity starts in the home and neither party has a solution, but a reduced number of people would definitely help things. You know Im very disappointed with this so called pandemic, but thats another debate...

Exactly why they hate what he does. He creqtes kore awareness .Then they have to do something to help.

They get what they vote for! Then leave when it gets bad, and keep voting blue...smh!

The authorities make their living and increase their staff by making more homeless.

They know that no one is going to do anything and by them being on social media constantly it is upsetting the Americans with all the money who want their beach back so they start making phone calls and the homeless people get removed . However a lot of these people wouldn't actually go down to the beach but they just like to complain

.......at least YOU'RE not trying........illiteracy will doom this country.......

@@urbanurchin5930 Relax. Jesus Christ 🙄

@@eppsislike , comments like Gun Slinger's (🤣) don't help; they are divisive.

Divisive?/. Take that attitude and gif out of town..your the effing problem..they need a hammer not a safe zone…your way is not working

It's supposed to be free land available. The reality is that would help

Do you know anything about the Bundy family in Nevada? They have taken over thousands of acres your public land.

Exactly

Abuse the public!

All they're interested in doing is the poor people going away so they can have their view of the beach

Of course not. It's how you destroy CA one day at a time.

......YOU'RE more of a solution.......I don't see where YOU'RE doing..........illiteracy will doom this country.......

@anonymous Yeah, sure. Liberals. Turn the problem over to conservatives and all your going to get is more tax cuts for the rich. At least liberals try, but the problem is overwhelming.

They just need a good old fashioned ass whoopin. Stop the free stuff. Everyone that walks by and hands them food or money is part of the problem along with the government.

Okay that's awesome.

@@LexPips That's what Mo B means, like what you're saying. Because the people running the city turn a blind eye and don't have plans in place, essentially acting like all is fine- they are in turn, enabling them to stay there endlessly and continue this way.

These people as you put it are your fellow human being. Get a heart and stop with your Poisen you wrote.. One day it could be you remember that..

@@angelsnow2695 So using the term "these people" actually triggered you? lol. And I've got news for you.This WAS me. I'm retired now but when I first left home 45 years ago I was homeless for about a year. I had nothing but a duffle bag. It was brutal. Nobody made it easy for me, Thank God. I clawed my way into a menial job that gave me a foothold and a rundown hotel room. I never applied for welfare or food stamps even though I was eligible. To keep this short...every year that went by I improved my situation through hard work to enjoy a rewarding career and a pension that I earned. I know what homelessness is like and I know that with very few exceptions there is a way out for anybody thats willing to work for it.

@@LexPips What are you doing to help man.

Mo B same here,,, messing up Million dollar properties is not tolerated,, no one gets to live beachfront for free!!!

It's really not lol
