One of Portland's oldest homeless encampments was broken down, many left wondering where to go next
Portland tried to offer limited shelter to unhoused people and only a handful accepted. Nonprofits and organizers say city shelters have too many barriers.

The shithead liberals running Portland are ruining the area just like they have destroyed San Francisco for decades. There is nothing to be proud of when the city government permits the city to deteriorate to the point that there are hypodermic syringes strewn about the city and human feces on people's lawns. There is simply not enough purple and green hair dye, or tattoo ink, or nipple piercings, to solve these societal problems. Sorry, liberals. You have to use your liberal arts education to actually do something about the problem instead of talking about it month after month.
They prefer drugs, criminality, and chaos. And the homeless advocates are making a living from it. Shameless fools.

Every single one of them gets SSDI payments. You won't find a single drug zombie in these tent cities not collecting a SS disability direct deposit every month. NGOs have staff lawyers that do all the paperwork for them to get them on disability and these NGO lawyers get their cut too. They can afford low-income housing, they choose to use their SSDI on drugs rather than rent. Not a bit of sympathy.

I worked in health care for decades. Treating people with the illnesses of substance abuse and mental illness is incredibly expensive and that's why no one wants to put in the time and money to spend on the homeless. Society views them as disposable and expendable.

It’s a job and inflation crisis. Can’t have a home without a job and an affordable place to live.
They’re offered places to go, but they don’t want to go because they can’t pursue their drug habit in shelters. It’s so odd that nobody wants to address the drug problem they just want to say unhoused. For most of these people in the beginning it was a choice to do drugs. I’ve worked with the doctors and have had several say that certain synthetic drugs in certain combination of drugs, cause permanent psychosis along with years of abuse will cause permanent psychosis. Until people stop, pretending this isn’t the issue the root cause nothing will change it will only get worse….

Ok, the end of "offering". They do not have a choice or the capability to make these decisions - the compassionate thing is to move them into regulated encampments and provide services whether they like it our not. But no one has the balls to do it.
These people will be just as homeless somewhere else. Nothing is gained and nothing is fixed. Probably even worse for the evicted people.

There needs to be a real solution. The Shelters are not great. Go undercover go see what it is to be homeless. Go try for help & spend a few nights at a shelter. Shelters were bad when I was homeless. It looks like it is ten thousand times worse. Than it was 40 years ago. Help these people with real long-term solutions. Not temporary housing at a shelter. Drug addiction is not always the reason to turn down the shelter. I knew a lady who got hurt trying to sleep at a shelter. Some have mental health issues & cannot deal with the environment of the shelters. This goes for the entire western seaboard, every State, city & town. They come from the eastern states to escape winter, they all come west. It happens, it happened during the Dust Bowl & the Free Love Years, and all the youth. Now, it is everyone from old folks to young families, it is not getting better yet. Affordable housing is needed now, more than ever real-world solutions. IMHO
Seems the cities can find placement for the asylum seekers, the citizens, not so much. Maine is 98 percent woods, set up mini house developments for off-the-grid self-sufficiency living.

I don't know why cities don't renovate old schools and abandoned motels to turn them into at least studio apartments and the ones who physically and mentally able to work help them find a job and pay something towards the rent at least $400 monthly. And stop complaining about the homeless and actually find out how they became homeless.
Decline shelter and go to jail. Also require mandatory drug or mental health treatment.
I don't understand why they do this to people. Not everyone who is homeless are on drugs. Some are really down on their luck. My husband and I lost everything after covid shut everything down...

In other cities, what has been most effective is *housing* people *first.* That is the most basic and crucial need. Once people have a roof over their heads the other issues can be addressed. It's backwards to tell people to deal with their addiction mental health issues when they're in survival mode. I know, my life began at age 15 when my sadistic father threw me out into the street. I didn't drink or use drugs, I was just getting big enough to fight him off. I was on my own at fifteen. I had never had a boyfriend, I was both innocent and naive. People assume that everyone who is homeless is a pos and you get treated that way. Until we begin to see homeless folks as human beings, and treat them...not based on who or what they are, but as who *we* are; compassionate, knowledgeable, capable, understanding...the homeless population is a *reflection* of who we are. And we are failing. As a society, as human beings, as a nation. We look so lame and so ignorant in the eyes of the world. I once had a conversation with a man from Cuba. He said "Americans talk bad about communism, but we don't let our people sleep in the dirt." There are many countries who make us look bad, as they care for their people. In the eyes of the world, we don't. We don't even do right by our veterans. Also, it's painfully obvious that our *government* has flooded the streets with drugs and guns and are watching us destroy ourselves and each other. But because they're so good at playing us against each other, even as they betray us, we are ineffective and ignorant. TPTB are winning...we the people are losing...every day. 😔🌹

Amazing, everyone at the encampment was offered shelter and help. This does not happen in other states and cities (not in CA where I live). This is an intractable problem when the majority of this homeless population have serious addiction problems and/or mental illness. No one wants to hear it, but this population either cannot or will not take care of themselves. You cannot have a dysfunctional minority dictating terms to the entire community. It seems like Portland, ME is offering some solutions - not perfect but a start.

I don't understand what is so complicated. The guy with the microphone is asking the city government of Portland where these people in the encampment can go, yet ALL of these individuals were offered city shelters and did not have to live in tents. Then in the video, it comes out that the real reason for why all of these people turned down city-run shelters is because it meant them having to get help for their drug addiction, and having to give up their drug-addicted "lifestyle". Well, that's too damn bad. The city is obviously doing what it can to help these individuals, but what they really need is to be physically forced into a residential drug rehabilitation center whether they like it or not. These drug-addicted idiots should not be permitted to ruin Portland for everyone else. This is all San Francisco repeated, and the liberals have a very bad track record for running cities.
I'm sure, percentage- wise, these kind- of - ppl aren't even 1 % of total - population.
