From a Tent to a Home: No Longer Homeless kzread.info/dash/bejne/YpyfzamBj7SndKQ.html

I was at the gas station and noticed a car full of belongings and a lady with her dog. I gave her $20 and she just started bawling and was extremely grateful. When I was in my 20’s I was homeless for 2 months and lived in my car. I know how it feels to be in that situation.

@@jackburton6462I don’t hate homeless people themselves. I hate when they don’t clean up their living area and just make it into a dump. I hate this type of living even from people who aren’t homeless. But it seems it’s prevalent amongst the homeless.

when I was 10, my father and I were forced to live on the street. I remember so many people giving me dirty looks, police officers not caring about what I have to say when a man threatened my life. everyone around me treated a 10 year old child like trash because she didn’t have a home. I couldn’t “get a job” because I was 10, but everyone seemed to believe I could. I was told that “you did this to yourself” and “the choices you make made you end up here” but that’s not my case. my father is disabled and is not allowed to work. how can the government stop us from working and not provide enough assistance to keep a 10 year old off the street. now our government is also making it illegal for 10 year olds to even sleep out in the streets, not the way it should be, they’re throwing their lives away now too.

The problem homeless people get into with trash cans is they root around trash can's looking to make a withdrawal not a deposit. Legally trashcans are for the deposit of liter, refuse or trash. Some homeless people act like trash cans are loot boxes to be scoured through like Christmas stockings full of "Gifts!" Homeless people who root through trash can's looking for prizes should be arrested and thrown into jail. I am a disabled black man and in all my life I've never been arrested or harassed for DEPOSITING trash into trash can's liter barrels whatever.

We are not giving it to them because we are giving it in subsidies to large multinational companies because I guess those folks shareholder value is not letting them have enough yachts or buggatis or escorts. A lot of these people dont mind living in the streets because a lot of the time the alternative is worse. Shelters are often dangerous, dirtier than the street, they kick you out in the morning no matter how cold it is, many times they force you to convert to their religion, or pray or go to service....and many times they take your food stamps and dont feed you. No drug use or drinking, so if you have a habit and get sick then well guess you are fucked cos you cant leave once you are in there and many of them say you cant smoke ciggies either. So its get punched in the nuts or punched in the throat. Homelessness existing is a policy. The reason it exists when it could so easily be erradicated with so little money. It is there so the bosses can point at those living on the street and say if you dont jump as high as I want you to for as little as I say you get no matter if you have to live in your car, no matter if you can get your kids inhaler, no matter if I steal your wages (wage theft is the biggest amount stolen every year by an insane amount) then that will be you.

Anybody with any empathy and connection to San Diego government needs to provide response to this immoral way of treating people in this city.

Nobody wants homeless people around, yet they have nowhere for them to go.

No affordable housing. Developers come in and put up overpriced condos . Most people can not afford these prices. Some end up homeless. Rent is going up everywhere. Government needs to step it up and do something about this problem. Rent can go up from 700 to 1200. But high rent is not the only problem. The focus needs to be on what's driving people to be homeless.

Thanks for documenting this. This is a clear example of how criminalizing homelessness, is basically a "sweeping under the rug" policy. As the criminal lawyer said in this video, doing so shows the failures of the politicians. It also highlights their hubris. I hope you can also cover more about the policies and especially the local politicians. It's the cops who often get negative press but it is their job to enforce what politicians implement as policy. Homelessness is complex and cannot be overly simplified. Perhaps only when these politicians find themselves living on the streets might they really understand. I don't ever see that happening. So it is my hope for a group of individuals who want to commit and move towards making real, humane changes actually happen. Lasting change that impact and benefit everyone, and not just a powerful few, takes time and collaboration which many are unwilling to do.

Shelters can help these people get back on their feet but many don't want to do what the shelters ask. The drug addicts and mentally ill need to be in hospitals where they can be helped.

So very sad. I am pretty much in the same situation here in South Africa

We have the same problem in most major Canadian cities. In my hometown the solution now is for city parks to be used as tent cities. The long-term goal is to built min-houses not much bigger than a backyard shed. They would be built on city owned land and the first pilot project calls for 200 huts to be built. Meanwhile the only high rise buildings I see in 2023 are condos. Most two bedroom condos in my city go for $500 k pre-construction. They are $750 k for re-sell units.

How can homelessness be a crime? If you house them and they didn't stay there, I can imagine it to be a crime but if you don't house them and they have nowhere to go, they have to live somewhere! Usually outside! What the hell...

As a native San Diegan who was once homeless, it’s so frustrating how people who don’t understand or care to try to understand show no compassion and see unhoused people as animals or pests just bc they have fallen on rough times. And they act like it’s “tHe dEmOcRaTs’ fault.” NO POLITICIAN CARES OR WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE! The “unsafe campers ordinance” is such a cruel idea, like why can’t someone sleep in their car in a store parking lot or in their tent under an overpass overnight? No one else is there overnight! Society just hates the homeless and treats them like an annoyance and a scourge

I've seen police let homeless people stay in areas if they're not trashing it and not blocking sidewalk, storefronts etc.

From the top of the chain to the bottom. You have funding that is granted to address the homeless issue and what most dont realize is that a small portion is really being put towards this. It always has been discrimination, and biases from certain staffs that are able to give vouchers and who they give it too. Why are more and more people becoming homeless? Why is it harder and harder to make ends meat? The real issue is cost of living. The real issue is the people in our state, that are able to make policys that dont align with housing the homeless. The issue is that we need to stop manipulating the community by words of change. And make the changes needed to actually get it done.

Once a person becomes homeless,. it is extremely HARD to get out of that!!! NOT many homeless people SUCCEED in this life sadly..

@@Peace-fd3tg I am speaking from experience. I spent three years homeless, living in a storage shed with no running water or toilet. I spent much of my time hanging out in "camps" located in the woods adjacent to the railroad tracks where other homeless people set up their tents. I watched them spend all their time planning how they would get their next fix or their next bottle. I saw them use their government EBT cards to get stuff they could sell so they could buy more drugs or booze. There is NOTHING you can tell me about this lifestyle that I haven't lived. I did not use drugs at all. I did drink, but I never allowed it to get control over me. I finally decided to clean up and start working again. Once I made that decision, the rest was easy. I am now living a clean, productive life. I'm remarried and own a small home and started a small business. If I can do it, they can do it. It is a choice. Those of you pretending that it is NOT have never lived this lifestyle.

While not all homeless are bad people, there are a lot that ruin it for everybody. I live in S.D. and it's gotten terrible. Crime rates in those areas are through the roof, vehicle break ins daily, shoplifting, business break ins, innocent people getting robbed on the streets, homeless camping in front of businesses which destroys the business, people using drugs in the open, having sex in public, leaving dirty needles and condoms everywhere, and many other problems. Many homeless enjoy the handouts and dont want to work. They get free food through e.b.t., free cellphones and cell service, free medical/dental insurance through medi-cal, free needles, condoms and meth pipes through needle exchange. It's pretty wild.

What I don’t understand is San Francisco offers shelter space and the homeless persons do not accept the help.

My only thought was this. Take those multi-story storage facilities and convert them into temporary single person rooms. Have facility level air conditioning. Have one plug in each "room" that has enough power to run low power devices like a small tv alarm clock and cellphone charger. Have common bathrooms, day rooms, kitchens. Have a strict rule policy and make them sign agreement to them. Make the occupants responsible for cleanliness and have a rotating schedule of them keep the place clean 3 times a day. Have a person at front entrance that can monitor foot traffic and only allow those approved in to enter. That person along with 5 residents that are doing well to act as a panel/enforcement for rule violators. Everyone is expected to maintain a job and pays a rent. 300-500$ under my calculations will cover the salaries of people needed to run the place as little as 2-4 people with more than enough left over to keep the facility working and CLEAN. This would he a perfect temporary solution. Say up to 1-1.5 yrs while they save and learn how to fix whats wrong. If they dont follow rules or meet minimum expectations they get removed so the next person has a chance.

That is why we as Americans must begin again, to understand that our right and ability to research for ourselves is fully within each and every one of us that has a mind and a will to question what central authorities are telling us. We are a very educated nation yet, we haphazardly allow central heads of various industrial sectors to funnel the knowledge of the world through their spokesmen. That creates a potentially problematic risk factor for being misled and outright lied to.

I wish the homeless would open their eyes & see the damage & mess they are making out of the streets. Why have a broken TV that you have no place to plug it into. Look at the trash left behind thank God the city is cracking down & cleaning that mess up.

The answer is agricultural work. These people should be working in agriculture rather than the United States importing foreign labor.

It would be interesting to find out how many of these people had section 8 for years for their stable housing and then had to move out due to no landlord taking section 8 anymore. For the few landlords or complexes taking section 8, there are waiting lists for years. Even more of what is happening is tenants who pay their rent on time every time and who work a job or more than one job for years and then get evicted by a landlord and for sure can't get an apartment again for like ten years.

You even watch the video or you sticking with your sweeping generalization? People too poor to afford housing get heckled and jailed for homelessness which stops them from showing up to work let alone on time. Criminal record for being homeless makes people less employable. People's essentials and transportation from cookware, tents, to bikes get trashed. How is anyone going to survive or earn enough money for housing if you have to replace basic needs for survival whenever the city stops by? Criminalizing homeless people or moving them somewhere else does not solve the problem. Every person deserves a place to live and should not be prosecuted because of their poverty, let alone veterans who served their country.

The situation you described is called government detachment. It happens when the government becomes increasingly out of touch with the people it is supposed to represent. This can happen for a number of reasons, such as: - The government becomes more bureaucratic and less responsive to public input. - The government becomes more focused on the interests of special groups, such as wealthy donors or powerful corporations. - The government becomes more polarized, with elected officials more concerned with winning elections than with serving the public good. Government detachment can have a number of negative consequences, such as: - The government becomes less effective at solving problems. - The government becomes less accountable to the people. - The government becomes more likely to make decisions that are harmful to the public interest. There are a number of things that can be done to address government detachment, such as: - Making it easier for people to participate in government. - Reducing the influence of special interests in government. - Promoting civic engagement and public awareness of government issues. It is important to address government detachment because it can lead to a number of problems, including ineffective government, lack of accountability, and decisions that are harmful to the public interest.

If they want their own problems fixed, then they need to get a good paying job and save money so they would have a place to live in. I feel bad for these people.

Everyone needs help, even the richest people in the world started with loans from family. Why is it so hard for people to understand that taking everything someone has isn't going to help them.

@@johnhudson8197 I agree. They are not down on their luck, they used up all their family and friends and want to live in trash. We are not all just a paycheck away from this either. These bums can get jobs and live responsibly, they just don't want to.

San Diego is suffering from the huge influx of homeless who moved to California from other states. The federal government puts blinders on to this situation instead of helping with money for organized camps, porta potties, trash pickup. Fed policies greatly contributed to this economic situation so should help with solutions.

Shelter/Housing is a basic human need. Even if you have food, you must have housing. You could survive in the short term without it but not over time. I think people see others living rent free on the streets and think they can too.

Honestly, I don't know what the US government wants those homeless people to do, knowing that simply sweeping them away never creates a solution to the problem. These people experienced and are facing various circumstances that have led them to sleep rough outside, and many of these circumstances are beyond their control, not solely based on their life choices or efforts. As someone born in Asia where the Western culture is commonly perceived as highly-developed and superior, I once admired the US almost blindly, believing that the US would always protect civil rights and listen to people's voices. It is now disheartening to say that justice in the US appears to be relevant only to strong and well-off families. Furthermore, it seems that the current system of US society is perpetuating a growing population of underprivileged individuals. With a flock of poor people on every street corner nationwide, how can I believe in the prospects of a country even if its surface has been maintained well-decorated?

I lived there 10 years ago and it was mostly around the trolley station but its got worst. America has a homeless crisis. Its hard not do drugs but add hopelessly.

Stop giving all these bums so many handouts and they'll have to find a way to make it on their own. They're given money, food stamps, healthcare, drug paraphernalia, tents, clothing, food etc. Many times cops don't give them tickets because they know they'll never pay. Yet cops or city officials will give homeowners fines for letting the lawn grow too tall

Honestly I’m from Colorado homelessness has always been a problem it’s never hit me personally but my father has been homeless on and off the last 10 years and the circumstances are terrible but his own doing mostly. Of course all situations are different but what really bothers me is lack of basic resources for homeless. Homeless people in Denver for example can not even access a safe public restroom because all restrooms at gas stations etc have there bathrooms closed and have even denied me use when being a paying customer, being pregnant, and with a small child in need of basic necessities they refused because of the homeless problem. That is unacceptable. And this is only one of many small basic rights the homeless do not have.

Honestly. They’re trying to find housing in one of the most expensive cities in America. I’m sure if they went to Yuma, Arizona they’d find cheap housing and a job. But instead they’d rather whine and complain. Heck even the illegal immigrants coming over have a strong desire to work and will live in their car for as long as they need. Just watched a video on a Venezuelan dude who is living in his Honda civic with 4 other people while they try to find work. Maybe these folks can get a lesson from them.
