Pittsburgh won't remove homeless encampments after U.S. Supreme Court ruling 

Roughly 30,000 homeless being added over the border every day, America Brace For Impact.

What's wrong with making them pick up the garbage off city steets? Put them on a work detail in exchange for their "free rent" on City property. We never voted for this.

rent is out of control. they city has no cheap rooms anymore. and even if they did you would need proof of income and have a 650+ credit score. 🍻

I hate working in Pittsburgh. Panhandlers approach you when you drive or walk anywhere around the city. And they are getting more aggressive.

What a dump.

Pittsburgh is the east coast Portland 😂😂😂

Lee Schmidt and democrats who don't want to enforce and protect tax payers should home the homeless in their mansions. but, if voters vote to keep these people in charge then that's on pittburgh

I love Pittsburgh. I used to live there 14 teen years ago. Live in new Jersey now, but i miss Pittsburgh very much.❤

My cousin worked as a security guard at a Catholic Charities homeless resource center in Midtown Baltimore for 12 years and most of the ones that would line up outside the main entrance Monday-Friday waiting for the doors to open were NOT drug addicts. They would all take drug tests before receiving services. My cousin had to quit because homeless people were coming in unvaccinated and testing positive for COVID-19. His wife was undergoing chemo treatments for ovarian cancer at the time and he didn't want to bring COVID-19 home to her. Clearing them out is not the answer and you can't arrest your way out of this crisis. Here in Baltimore, the city under orders from the mayor, purchased 2 hotels to house homeless people in to help them get access to services. Also, here in Baltimore, when you call 311 or go online to report a homeless camp, police show up at the camp with case workers from DSS to start the process of getting them help. The Supreme Court has been corrupted by Leonard Leo and Harlan Crow.

What a ridiculous story. No matter what space they put the homeless, there will be someone to complain about it, just like what that guy is doing. That's exactly why there isn't a homeless shelter for them. If there was, residents would complain about it. You can't make everyone happy. There will always be a homeless population.

What, no abandoned air bases near by? Perfect place.

Today poor is a crime lets let the Supreme Court justices sleep in tents

I am so glad I don't have to be a part of Pittsbugh any more.Woke

Stop stating it wrong ""DRUG ENCAMPMENTS FOR THE HOMELESS AND THIEVES"" PROVE DIFFERENT watch the vids on RU-vid they themselves admit this.

The Wall has been empty for years. Remove the locks and keep them there. Police could watch the entrances and respond to criminal activity and protect the safety of those there.

Pittsburgh is a crappy city

Get them off the bike trails NOW

How about not charging ridiculous prices for rent ?

These encampments represent a failure of our public services for helping people stay afloat.

They don't Apply this same pressure on all the illegal immigrants that came into out backyards but yet...They set rules for the local homeless an enforce it...Smh

Sophie says raccoon state park is open……..deadheads unite

where did God go. permanent vacation?

There hasn't been a Republican Mayor in 80 year downtown pgh needs a change of the Democrat controlled guard Pittsburgh need a chance to make Pittsburgh Great Again.

Yes they will. Give it time.

. Some cities have a higher percentage of homeless than others. In some cities it's a much bigger problem than in others. Now days, almost every city has some number of homeless people. Of all the myriad of problems housing or helping the homeless there is one constant, and that is the number of homeless people out there is growing year after year. Turning a blind eye to the plight of the homeless or cutting them off from living on a sidewalk only exacerbates an already complex problem and between the quality of life issues affecting everybody concerned to the right that a human being has not to be persecuted for being poor and homeless, the probability that any of this will improve in your lifetime is zilch because the propensity to just deprive them of a place to sleep and run them off only moves the problem to the other side of the street, town or another state. For a lot of people working, all their paycheck goes just to pay rent and some have two jobs just to pay rent. For whatever reasons, many of the homeless are unemployable. How is this going to be resolved?

INDOOR PEOPLE OUTDOOR PEOPLE EVERYONE LOOKING NOBODY FINDING THE WAY OUT We just stare at one another With gaping mouths😊

Wait till winter. They’ll move.

They’re encamped 10 feet from jail. Put em there

Yea, City of Pittsburgh, yunz doing good.

Molotov cocktails?

their running from their pride and glory

All the people who think these encampments should be torn down are more than welcome to be good Christians; open their doors and give them a place to stay. Thank you Pittsburgh for being humane.

great movies pride and glory and the ice man happy independence

the scopions

Giving the homeless houses is actually cheaper than maintaining camps. Housing is a human right.

Stop feeding them........they will move on or find work

It's behind the jail. There are beautiful parks this family can jog in. PPL like that are A-holes

There's no homeless ! And crimes down .

Leave them be they are already at rock bottom..send a social worker in there offering help and alternatives..
