People can report to you all day long how bad this is, but nothing illustrates this poverty pandemic more clearly than a camera stuck right in its face does. Keep up the great work..
I’m retired now & I spend 4-5 hours a day on U Tube surfing when I see these videos I tell myself this stuff is not real . My life now is going to church each Sunday & going to Walmart 2-3 times a week & surfing U Tube & a few movies here & there & then I see stuff like this & I think is this for real or what - I have always been self reliant & took care of myself - now in my old age I am living the American Dream debt free own my own home & have all the money I need to live - I thank God each day for what I have been blessed with …
That's what I thought too, like I mean they need to clean up after themselves, because it's creating a health hazard not only for themselves, but for everyone around them, plus starting fires to keep warm, there's a safe way to do that by using a metal can. I feel there needs to be some stricter boundaries by the city, such as cleaning up after themselves, some sort of guidelines, or face the consequences. Such as being mandatory to be moved to a shelter. The laws are way too soft for these people I believe. I also believe that maybe they're homeless due to being filthy, and hoarding?? Cuz most landlords aren't gonna put up with that
Except for those with severe mental 'breakage', these 'residents' KNOW where the 'help' is in the neighborhood/city/county/state and how to get it. They've either given up and have accepted their 'slow-suicide-by-chemicals' or they 'like' this life. Those that have fallen to this level due to the more 'traditional' forms of 'financial-disaster/divorce/domestic abuse/bad luck', etc, etc, etc, DON'T come here or leave IMMEDIATELY through the forms of help offered.
Wow Skid row really got bad. I thought the year of 2000 was bad. That's when I was living on skid row for 11 years. Thank God for the experience and journey. I use to work for the Midnight Mission when it was on Los Angeles St. . Everyone lived at 566 S San Pedro. 😂
The Outhouse had shit literally dripping out the door onto the ground and the reason I could see that was because I'm watching a 42-inch screen that was so gross I can only imagine what inside look like
I Would love to see a huge change for skid Road , I dream of a day where we have all the streets in down town Los Angeles cleaned up and beautified. Los Andgeles I know you guys can do it.
@@The81titansno it’s not , you have no clue your telling me when a landlord desides to raise the rent to the point where people can no longer afford to pay and are forced to either live in the car or in the street it’s there choice, that’s exactly how a lot off people end up homeless besides so many other ways , your a heartless individual
Homelessness is not a black or white issue, meaning it's not that cut and dry. There's many many reasons people are homeless. And I can think of 1 right now. People not cleaning up their messes and hoarding. That's a concrete reason cuz landlords are not going to tolerate that unless they're FILTHY slobs themselves. Nobody wants rats, mice, etc
@elleg3651 you know nothing about me, and not all these people have mental issues. Addiction is another issue. When does it end. I've had numerous friends and family die. Most of these people don't want help.
I agree 100 %. You could give these people a decent job,...an acceptable place to live,....money to get them on their feet,.....and compassion and counseling,....and 99 % of them would fuck it all up and be back on the street in no time.
@@Tonymanero1960 Have seen it happen. You can't help someone who prefers that life on the street. Anything you do to "help" them just enables them to continue that self-destructive lifestyle.
@@walkingtourseurope8526 I have drug addicts in my family. They did dope to get high to have fun and for no other reason. They are now addicted. My family addicts will rob you blind. I don't feel sorry for them and I don't feel sorry for the people on the streets. I am sick of people throwing up the mental part. You have to work hard to get off dope. Jail or leave. The real mentally ill will eventually get help.
Thank God our Lord and Savior for what he has given us. Impeach Biden for not making the government take care of homeless issues. Biden brought more homeless to American streets. Vote Donald Trump 2024 ❤ help close the border. No more homeless
slum s for the homeless ,the mentally ill ,disabled ,addicted souls waiting for better time s ,,pray for hope and care .god bless in dystopia s paranoid , delusion ,,streets ,,
Ever try to sober up anyone? Did ya have any luck? Did ja get tired of stuff missing from the house? Did ja peel off thousands and thousands of dollars for rehabs, quack shrinks, bail and lawyers? That’s why they are here.
Isn’t it great how smart the people of California are? They vote for this time after time after time while attempting to hold some self imagined superiority over the rest of the nation. Enjoy all that you have created. You have no one to blame but yourselves
The problem is most of California residents do not want this so the voting maps are rigged in favor of one party. It’s impossible to imagine people find it acceptable. It’s Vile and shameful to have this government.
@@walkingtourseurope8526Republican Ronald Reagan was instrumental in causing this mess as governor of California, then US president. What you see here is a result of his "trickle down economics." But the democrats are just as bad.
