He's not part of the solution he's neutral, if you watch other channels like the guy in Philly, when they video tape a homeless person they give them 10$ gift card for McDonald's, socks, sandwiches, ect. Profiting off the homeless which is what he is doing is a gray especially if your not helping. If there were no homeless this channel would be pretty dead besides movie stuff. That's why the Adam the woo episode is the best, been following Adam since 2010. Fyi 6mil views is about 32k in ad revenue.... 1k in food gift cards for the homeless help wouldn't hurt him since he's profiting off them.

🤣🤣🤣Liberals are immune to reality: The challenge that liberals have with reality is that it confuses them. When life does not match their ideology, they begin to blame other people, the system, and of course conservatives. The liberal worldview is incompatible with people who still have hopes, dreams and desires to make a better life for themselves and their offspring. Hence, liberals get angry when their odd-notioned theories are not embraced or, more likely, rejected. [ ] In their mind, anyone who disagrees must be mentally inferior or defective. The possibility that they might be wrong is never considered. Facts, history and common-sense are mere inconveniences to these true believers. They make their own reality! the world or the state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an idealistic or notional idea of them. "he refuses to face reality" let's go Brandon!

Im very fortunate to be housed but I know how it feels to sleep on sidewalks and in doorways. Mental health treatment saved my life! Without realizing it I had been dealing with a moderate form of Schizophrenia for over 15 years. No wonder I was suicidal for most of my adult life. I had been trying to be normal without actually treating my disorder and that drove me batshit crazy. If you can relate to this, please get mental health treatment asap. Its so worth it to finally stop living in denial and start the process of getting your mind to a place where you can be rational, sane, and civil everyday. Say No to living on a roller coaster of extreme thoughts and emotions. Please stop the cycle!

But about 4 days went by and I finally started to see some results. Suddenly, I started realizing not everyone was out to get me and my overall mind started to clear. It took about 1 month till I was ready to try real life again. They released me under the condition that I seek ongoing outpatient services from a Psychiatrist and Therapist.

@@SamSung-jv3jm Thanks for the follow up. I guess my friend isn't at rock bottom yet, but she's close. SHE knows what her problem is - severe hoarding, to the point where she refuses to have anyone into her home but the Landlords, who have now had it with her after 5 years, and keep raising the rent to force her out. She needs to say some things out loud - not to me, but to a psychiatrist and not some telephone "therapist" who she probably isn't being honest with about her hoarding. THAT is the challenge to her housing situation now. She REFUSES to simply get rid of all of her "stuff!" Even if her brothers went in and got rid of everything "for her," she'd just fill up wherever she lived with "stuff" again. She needs to go into a Psych ward, but she isn't going to do so voluntarily. She'd never attempt suicide, since, quite frankly, she doesn't have the guts. I literally just tried talking to her honestly and she got off the phone quickly, since she "runs away" from reality. There is NO reason why she can't have a home for herself....except HERSELF. I'm so glad you saw fit to listen and that medication makes all the difference in the world. It would be that way for her as well, but she FEARS "the side effects," which is part of her sickness.

I thought I recognized that area... My husband and I was homeless from May 2013-January 2018. In February 2015 we left Ocean Beach ,San Diego and headed to LA. Everyone told us about Venice Beach. Well I wasn't and my husband wasn't that impressed with it at all!!! But I do remember smoking cigs and weed in this little park when we would go to library. No tents back then even on the beaches. We slept behind Gold's Gym off of 3rd and Rose. We stayed 1 week and went back to Ocean Beach, San Diego. Treated soooo much better there. But the only thing that brought me out of homelessness was the death of my husband in January 2018. Then I had a friend in Portland that offered up her couch and an opportunity for me to better myself so I'm took it. Got a job. And was working within a week to two weeks after moving to Portland. I lived there from February 2018-December 2019. Working, saving money, got me a van. And went traveling again. NOW I'm in Oklahoma in my hometown with my own apartment and a job and life is good.

They know that no one is going to do anything and by them being on social media constantly it is upsetting the Americans with all the money who want their beach back so they start making phone calls and the homeless people get removed . However a lot of these people wouldn't actually go down to the beach but they just like to complain

Danke for showing the efforts to keep a bit of Ordnung in Venice Beach!

Thanks for the update. See yall soon. Akron.Ohio

Hello Mike. Keep up the great work sir. I’ve seen the video where homeless people were giving you crap about being against them. That’s exactly what it is, CRAP! Good to see you. Big Al.

Much appreciation 💚💚✨

🔥👍heyy Mike u started watching your channel in 2018 when I Raptured my Achilles & u got me through some tough times cause I was on crunches & couldn't go anywhere 😅 u deserve the success & keep up the good work my brother 👍🔥🥳👏👏👏👏

Thanks mike for another great video 🤝🤝🤝

You're doing a great job, bud. Be kind to yourself. Your channel rocks!

Great update 👍

Right on Mark!! Hope you get all you need, at least your not trying to be lazy and not work. Right on. All the homeless that think they have something coming like the lady yelling at the cop, I have a solution. There is a winery in Napa owned by the Peoples Republic of California Governor Gruesome Newsom, he said they can all move onto his property . Stay as long as you like. Thats Newsom winery Napa CA all homeless welcome, full hook ups for RVs, pets are welcome.

Divisive?/. Take that attitude and gif out of town..your the effing problem..they need a hammer not a safe zone…your way is not working

Thank you for the update. While the homeless have almost always been with us, it really is an issue that seems to be spiraling out of control

Videos much appreciated...much love frm the east coast

GIV, keep doing your fascinating videos! You do them well & give us a clear perspective on the reality of this desperate situation. I wish your videos could be seen by all the wealthy people in the area who have the means and ability to actually rectify the issue. Keep on keeping on, Good on you!

All they're interested in doing is the poor people going away so they can have their view of the beach

That library, like the one I work in, probably receives funding so those ppl can come spend the day inside. They can't camp outside here in Queens NY. America the Beautiful ..... (i'm rolling my eyes over here)

The homeless will never go away!!

Of course not. It's how you destroy CA one day at a time.

I really love your videos.

God bless you, Mike!

Thanks for the great videos!! I love LA! Can't wait to get back out there! Would be great to run into you as well! 😊

Be safe and keep up the great work!

Thank you

Your a good man 👍 Keep those videos coming...

Come over to Gisborne, we have better beaches than that (even without the homeless) 5 to 15 minutes drive away.

Every time I watch one of these homeless videos it boils my blood. I cant stand when people think they have the right to set up shop on public land like that. Keep exposing these people Mike.

Tku sir for your Venice beach coverage of homeless people in California. People like you who had covered the plight of homeless people there prompted the authorities to clean up the area. Unfortunately today it is back to square one & the homeless is back with their tents. The problem needs to be tackled at its roots.Freebies needs to be stopped, sourcing of drugs should be stopped promptly & employment opportunities should be created for these homeless, these measures can to some extent address the problem I hope. Tku once again for this video🙏🙏🙏

good job bro, love the vids.

60 years old here born raised in the area so have seen a lot since the 70's of homeless and such. Thank you Mike for sharing this City needs to confront this growing issue. Mental health placements, rehabilitation housing, transitional living and programs in place are needed badly To shove away from street to street is only making situation worse more crime, damage, and repairs. We can give city workers raises Prisons pools TV and GYM's but we can not help the people that may have fought for this country? Get them off street not shove them around. Homeless dose not mean helpless. Many are from horrible situations of losing jobs, bad relationship, I knew a professor that became homeless never underestimate yes drugs alcohol and mental health to are serious. Our city needs to take heed and help not hinder.

@anonymous Yeah, sure. Liberals. Turn the problem over to conservatives and all your going to get is more tax cuts for the rich. At least liberals try, but the problem is overwhelming.

They just need a good old fashioned ass whoopin. Stop the free stuff. Everyone that walks by and hands them food or money is part of the problem along with the government.

You're the bridge between homeless in LA and unique way to view the reality of situation through resolute documentaries. Kudos to you.

I-told-you-so German in Venice you got so happy and I told you months ago that they would come right back again

You’re a brave soul, Mike! Nice job sharing beautiful California! Just like the leaders of the state….doing great to enrich themselves!
