This is what happens when a society becomes too open minded and accepting of everything. It becomes uncivilized and collapses. It doesn"t take a genius to figure that out. It"s all by design though to make people welcome the coming reset of how we live,,and die. Your life saving ; ) shots are a must have.
I dont see too many people who actually want to live on the streets. I think a general label of saying that they are all drug addicts is wrong. Maybe they need to find out which are which. First thing to do is get places built for low income people to get them off the streets. If they are people with mental problems and drug addicts then get them the help into drug/mental treatment facilities. The people who are fit to work then put them into the housing and let them pay for their fair share. This whole thing is a mess and needs to be dealt with. Clean up those streets and make sure no one will be living on them. Once the place is cleaned up,people will come back and neighborhoods will do better. Get cops out of their cars and let them walk the beat and get to know the people and that relationship will help all. Looks like you showed a couple of people repairing bikes and scooters. Why not be a part of a city run bike shop. All I am saying is that there is a mess there. Physically and mentally. It doesnt look like anyone wants to be in that situation. I bet if any of us lost our jobs and couldnt make our mortgage payments then we too might wind up in a situation like that. I had my sons friend wind up homeless and I took him into my house for a while and let him stay until he was able to get something to be able to live. I bet when we were in school, none of us decided what I want to be when I grow up is homeless. These are humans and we can certainly figure out something to fix this. We just have to remember that these arent an enemy just people who wound up in a situation one way or another...Peace
I was born in L.A.In 1949, it was a great place to grow up. I left California about ten years ago and moved to Portugal. California has become unlivable. It’s so very sad. Portugal is a great place to grow old.
From india It was to good to hear that portugal is great place to grow old It is necessary that we live in better places as we grow old I would like to know what factors contribute for making this place beautiful
@@tomstickney5500 who said anyone was *wishing* for anything? I was merely pointing out that a public health crisis might possibly spur our gov't to actually DO something about the problem of homelessness--not just shoo it away to somewhere else temporarily. But as another commenter said, Covid failed to do this, so...maybe not.
I used to live there in early 2000's and noticed in poor parts of town dumpsters had locks on them. Go 5 miles up to Beverly Hills and trash cans were provided every 50 feet along sidewalks
That only works when people throw their garbage into the trash cans. They need volunteers who will clean the mess up, and then someone who makes sure that trash keeps going into the bins, not on the streets.
Just an observation after watching numerous video's about Venice Beach and skid row etc. Has anyone seen any Immigrants amongst these homeless ?? I haven't , and that's because they are actually willing to work hard to be able to provide for their families and also contribute to the US economy after leaving everything they owned behind ! And they do not demand Beach facing property !
Ya but thats the councils job to clean it up like in any western country mate as thats wat they get paid for. so that just tells me that the councils isnt doing there job right or spending the ppls money on other things.
Damn man I watched several homeless vids from across the country. This vid really hit a nerve. I cannot wrap my head around how 3rd this really is in the greatest country in the world. My heart is heavy fam. We have passed the point of no return. Those in 'power' want it this way. Our darkest days are ahead of us
If people would stop paying their property taxes, school levy's, and police levy's, you would see some fast changes when the state starts running out of money.
No, you would see more people on the street losing their homes from not paying taxes! Government would not care, nor it's an excuse. Society has to collapse in order to rebuild itself, free of politicians.
Watched a program recently, police were interviewing the homeless at Venice Beach, a lot of the homeless said they were from other states. They came to California because they said there were no rules or laws. About sums it up.
Ahhhh most people in California are from other states. Your .25 cents worth of information doesn't about sum up shit. You think people are homeless because the laws of one state or another allows it? Go to any major city in the country and the homeless population is exploding.
America of all places??? America is the capital of everything wrong with this world. the problem is Americans cant see in from outside. The rest of the world can
Give the homeless a first job by cleaning their own mess for money. Stop giving the homeless extras and make them work for what they get. Build their self esteem with doing something
Just the other day saw people in downtown SF smoking meth recreationally in front of a police car... I’m pretty sure everyone is getting second hand smoke to let this happen! So disgusting and shameful.
There ain't no empty buildings for them to go to. These folks use to camp out in the download alleys but the shop keepers complained. The city ran the homeless out of the alley. Locked them all up.
It's truly amazing what your showing. All this rubbish and people living in it. The government throws money at the problem and yet things don't change on the streets. Honestly I have no answers for these poor souls. Thanks for the tour.
wow so happy i got the balls the get the heck outta there i was living in whittier 1990s and and didnt wanna raise my kids there it was allready smoggy but nothing like this hella crazy
what an irony seeing a merc parked next to a homeless tent, is this place getting worse since the last time I watched one of your vids , or is it just me
I stayed at the Weingart 3 years back, if you know where that is you have walked skid row everyday. Back then alot worse, the city started a clean sweep program geared in hiring homeless to clean up streets and ajob readiness, I was one they gave me uniform and brand new boots. The street cleaning carts you see are homeless employees working from them. The city of L..A. contracted Crisilus a job readness program involved in contracting to clean the streets, it hired homeless to do the work by this job readiness program. Answer not as bad as it was 3 years ago!!!!
A large portion of this trash is from discarded food containers. Charitable organizations for all there good intentions have for some time given out free food. This just makes it easier for people to live on the streets. And contributes to a trash problem In Clark County, Nevada we have an ordinance making it illegal to dispense free food on the streets. Charitable organizations have "soup kitchen" type places were they can go to get free food.
@@walkingtourseurope8526 \ IDK, they started the drought propaganda pummeling as I predicted back in March so water is a premium and "gold is the new green campaign" so people can let their yard look busted up and delapitated like in 2016 which is always good for morale when your property that's worked so hard to maintain looks slammed... Funny how corporate properties are exempt from looking dried out and exempt from water oppression because not a good product image projection when their landscape looks dead... All in the name of $$$$$$$ murica...☆☆☆
@@f360speedhoodkinghotrods7 And new high rises and 300 unit apartments going up everywhere must be no shortage of water for all the people coming to Los Angeles hundreds if not thousands of new builds from Orange County and riverside to la county.
I definitely agree it is a drug problem. But within the drug problem there are many different situations: some do drugs because they are mentally ill, others do drugs as a lifestyle choice, others do drugs to deal with the stress of poverty and not making ends meet before becoming homeless. But yeah mainly the problem is drugs
You must be one of riches which don't wanna share! You are all REAL LOSERS of universe. Your souls are EVIL'S W*ORES!!! You will never find peace!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is taught. Nobody thinks it’s ok to sleep on the sidewalk, but people getaway with it so more people come and join in this behavior. It’s called enabling
The most disgraceful major health hazard. Food district needs to be shut down where is the FDA is has allowed stores to remain OPEN. When another pandemic arises out of this filth then they will take action
My solution, you ask? 1. Pass laws that make it illegal to camp outside except campgrounds, PERIOD 2. Go around to all homeless, ask: shelter or jail or rehab? 3. Sort all homeless into 3 categories, all mandatory, no exceptions. Lockdown drug rehab for 90% I’m guessing. 4. Enforce the law 5. Society thrives in healthy clean land, those not cooperating will be jailed, sent to lockdown rehab or otherwise sheltered indoors.
Your number one on the list... The laws are there... They can't contribute to the Industrial Corrupt Corporate Court system (fines, fees$$$$$$) so it seems they're exempt...¿☆☆☆
I have heard they will start to give out tickets soon then to Jail if they do not except help, not sure how it will be enforced but we shall see. Hopefully the Government will be forced to do something! They cant be shamed!
@@walkingtourseurope8526 \ IDK once again see what happens... But how effective are citations when these houseless tent residents have no ID, no mailing address, some incoherent, I mean how do they expect any accountability...¿ Not to mention they have no resources to play the industrial corrupt court game and the numbers are too large to process and incarcerate... Then ya have the pushback from the activists with the homelessness isnt a crime claim... And finally been in so. Cali. My whole life and sorry pard, but the general concencus of the gubment is it's a failed system and not in place to serve the people only to self serve themselves..☆☆☆
You fix it by starting with mental health services a lot of the homeless here in LA are suffering from either mental illness and/or addiction hence the reason they don't seem to take care of themselves or the area in which they pitch their tents.
That is a great idea! The problem is, unless they remained there, the homeless creep back in again. I love your solution. We need a Governor with balls of steel.
@@deborahnieling2315 hey Karen maybe crack a book and take a civics lesson. The federal government can’t fix this it’s up to the state government but thanks for playing.
Because they (those " running this/handling" these captives need to portray this IMAGE of Dirty, Worthless, Drug/ Alcoholic Addicted "SLOBS." This IS A GOV MANAGED "STREET SHOW/PSYOPS."

Lisa Rae Rousseau🙋 GOD SEES THEM AND THEIR LIES.
Because there are a lot of litter bugs in Cali.(deserve to be fined and flogged) and the homeless empty out dumpsters, scavenge, then leave the rest, it's like this in Sacramento also, and it makes me sick!!
I lived on Skid Row from 1996 to 2007 before I move to Las Vegas I can't believe how bad it is now I blame Democrats and Republicans for letting this happen there was a time you can walk down the street now you can't it's not right
@@Moose803 I would say it again a lot of these people down on Skid Row cuz I live down there a lot of them have mental illness yes some of them on drugs some have just given up I know exactly what I saw I live down there from 1996 to 2007 everybody is not lazy and everybody is going through different things I was homeless for a different reason I never did drugs or alcohol I became homeless after my father died bad job choices but I managed to get on my feet it took some time but I got on my feet I'm still one check away from being homeless again everybody has different issue I saw a lot of mental illness when I was on skid row and it's still there today I have seen in witness women butt naked walking down San Julian Street in Downtown LA with people just laughing like it's a normal thing.
The people that don't want to be placed, they need to make tent neighborhoods for these people with a store ,restrooms an trash bends and free food .there are no sidewalks any moore. And people that pay rent and businesses should not have to walk outside an see this .put encampments of land in different areas were they can set up.tent neighborhoods .alot of people like living like that .make them some hoods like every one else .that way the trash and body fluids can be regulated. Open up some land for these people .
Each and everyone one of us can end up on the streets Most of these had no choice Loss of jobs Home repossession Illnesses Take time and ask these people why they homeless Most will tell you the truth But please don’t judge them all Being homeless is the final act of indignity.
@@walkingtourseurope8526, yeah, this kind of things only happening in blue States and blue cities that governing by demonrats. Demonrats governors and mayors as well as demonrat politicians creating all those policies and laws that ruin those places they governing. We are not dumb but we know and see things with our own eyes. Just to be clear, there are some Republicans who are currupt.
@@marjoryrainey287 after lunch I see the people tossing the trash right onto the street while the workers are sweeping it up so they sit against the wall and don’t have to get up. They just toss it knowing the cleaning crew will pick it up.
Actually , look in the trash and see all the beer boxes, and food containers. Rats are only the perks.. Being poor doesn't mean you have to live like this. You can be clean and clean up the area. In other parts the city workers pick up their trash daily... really they are the heros.
Oh my good Lord! Seeing these huge rats run around so freely & without fear is terrifying not to mention a pretty bad health issue. This is beyond unacceptable!!! Do they think the homeless will just leave if the government doesn't clean up? That's not happening as they have no where to go. But this very clear public health issue is allowed to continue!!!!???
Honestly? I’d turn Alcatraz into a homeless camp, with services instead of a tourist attraction, also b careful out there my dude, those streets aren’t the safest and you could step on a needle or piss someone off.
And then it dawns on you that this problem is not going away. Here and there people will throw political mud saying that it's the other party's fault when the true culprit is public apathy.
Where ever the homeless are, it is disgusting. Why do they have to be such filthy pigs? They aren’t exactly contributing to the betterment of this world. I’m NOT talking about the temporary homeless through no fault of their own, but the chronic homeless. If I had a business or home in this area and these people were pitched outside my front door - I’d be pissed!
OH MY😳 Trash and clutter scares me. You don't know what's behind, underneath or in. Dude is really practicing his golf skills. That has become a norm for them, a shame!
They rather die with millions so they can be in Forbes Magazine...Hollywood has been used since ww2 to help push mental maniplation, I do my best not to watch any of them; they are all narcissist
It's not necessarily the rich but rather corrption in high places. Most these people would probably be okay if housing prices were reasonable and they can get a decent job that covers those cost. Also the system in this world is beyond corrupt most these people have criminal records that prevent them from getting hired. Not to mention the illegal drugs keeping most of them stuck in homelessness.. "They Say" they are fighting against illegal drugs but looks more like they got their hand in the pot.
DID YOU KNOW? The problem you see here has its origins back in the thirties. In those days there were rundown tenements where the poorer classes could go to get a roof over their heads. But the landlord class that owned more expensive housing were greedy and wanted to increase their rents. So, they kept pushing the legal establishment to embrace "urbane renewal". They bulldozed those tenements and flophouses and replaced them with newer much more expensive housing, new business buildings, new garage parking facilities and parking lots. So what are poor people going to do? You guessed it!!! LIVE ON THE STREETS.
Thank you so much Democrats thank you or democrat mayor this is beautiful man and something to be really proud of you're doing a great job here you should be fucking fired tomorrow
Not sure what the point is because rats like cockroaches search for water and food to go on, so the remedy is to get rid of the trash and water sources. They will go to the next hood or move again.
L.A. used too, and in Sacramento(I live) we have great sanitation, street cleaning(in certain areas) and public landscaping, the problem is loitering, camping on public property is no longer illegal, they do it in front of businesses, freeway's, and homes, and never moved, and our littering laws are not enforced, we have hefty littering fines but it doesn't matter if it's all decriminalized, our homeless population will empty out a dumpster, take what they want, and leave the rest, and won't be held responsible. Drug use, and mental illness has also been ignored, it's a regular occurrence to see open drug use in public, and needles on the ground, they just don't care, and when your local leadership doesn't care, who do you reach out to?
So sad.The worst pandemic in the US: the homeless tents communities, with the hightest level of pooverty, full of dirt and diseases. Los Angeles is just the biggest example of this trend. In Skid Row people seem to be unable to live and to be waiting for their death. How could be this situation changed?
@@walkingtourseurope8526 if the hyperinflation occurs or the dollar collapses, things will become scarier. Many people from different classes have guns. Imagine what could happen if there is a rebellion.
