On Monday, July 1, 2024, Santa Monica Police Officers were actively patrolling Santa Monica Beach, enforcing the city’s no-camping ordinance. Municipal Ordinance 4.08.095 prohibits the use of tents, huts, or any temporary shelters as living accommodations in public spaces, including parks, beaches, streets, alleyways, parking lots, and other public areas. This enforcement action underscores the city's commitment to maintaining public order while considering the well-being of all community members.

It didn't always used to be like this. Back in the 2000's (here in the bay area) the only really entitled bums were in Berkley. They would legit get mad at you if you didn't give them change, or smokes. Now that entitlement is everywhere here in Cali

This should have been taken care of long ago. Remove the homeless from beaches where there are residents-businesses-and working people as well as children and families trying to enjoy the beach and can’t. It’s out of control criminal activity-drugs-violent crimes-robberies-assaults on innocent people and more. We must stop this madness and get our beach back.

@JamesBond-py8xs Месяц назад

@JackieM414 Hopefully we will get everything together right when Trump gets elected. All the dems in offce now would have to be out. I grew up in San Bernardino, before things got to be as bad as it is now. My old house is 1300 sq. ft. and valued at $425k with Perris Hill Park being 600 yards away, which currently has at least 20 tents and people making clothes lines from tree to tree and campers all over..and that's just one side of Perris Hill. Just RU-vid Perris Hill park now, and you'll even find some people interviewing some homeless L.A. grips who are over there. The guy who did the video was talking to them as of they were pillars of the community..but that's the democratic liberal politics of San Bernardino for you. I'm only 30 something miles away from S.B. now, but nothing to that extent over here yet where I live. San Bernardino's finished if they don't do something about it soon, but the same crap is happening everywhere.

As much as some people won't like this...the beach, public transportation, (busses and trains) storefronts and public sidewalks are NOT made for using them as a hotel or living quarters.

No. The SCOTUS ruled a few days ago that the removal of encampments on public property was NOT cruel and unusual punishment. And they were correct to rule that way. Now, cities can involuntarily treat people for mental illness and/or addiction. That's good for the individual who needs the help and the public at large.
