OUTRAGEOUS: Cops Dispose Of Homeless Woman's Son's Ashes In Grants Pass

Amber's story unfolds in Grants Pass, Oregon, a narrative that demands our attention and speaks volumes about the harsh reality of homelessness. Living in a tent, Amber navigates life with resilience, confronting daily challenges that too often remain unseen by society at large.
From the constant threat of losing her possessions to law enforcement to battling the elements in Oregon's unforgiving climate, Amber's experiences highlight the profound obstacles those in her situation face. "This tent is my home. It's all I've managed to keep after the police discarded my new tent. It's barely holding together now-the zipper hardly works, making it difficult to stay warm," she reveals, giving voice to her relentless fight for survival.
Amber's tale is a sobering reflection on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which cost her her job and thrust her into homelessness. Her personal plight, however, is a window into broader societal issues, including the criminalization of homelessness. Over 18 months, Amber has been fined 30 times, each ticket costing $300, simply for existing without a home. She's compelled to move her belongings every five days, a rule enforced regardless of weather conditions.
The dehumanization faced by Amber and others in her situation is stark. Prohibited from using basic amenities like propane for warmth or cooking, they are stripped of their dignity and survival means. "We might have phones, but we can't charge them. It feels like they're taking everything from us because they don't want to see us. To them, we're trash," Amber laments.
Amber also touches on the systemic barriers that keep her and others from breaking the cycle of homelessness, such as the difficulty in securing employment and housing when basic human needs, like clean clothes and showers, are unmet. "Even if you land a job, how do you keep it when you're constantly on the move and risk losing everything if you're not there when they decide to clear your tent?" she questions.
A particularly tragic moment in Amber's story is the loss of her son's urn during a police sweep, a personal tragedy that underscores the human cost of such policies. "They threw away his urn. They didn't know, but that doesn't change my loss. And they don't care," Amber says, her voice a mix of grief and outrage.
Her narrative is set against the backdrop of legal battles over Grants Pass's controversial laws against public sleeping and camping, which are seen by many as criminalizing homelessness. The Supreme Court's upcoming deliberation on these laws signals a critical moment in the national discourse on homelessness and the rights of unhoused individuals.
Amber's journey is a call to action, urging us to confront the realities of homelessness as a pressing humanitarian crisis. Her story, marked by vulnerability and an indomitable spirit, challenges us to stand in solidarity with those facing homelessness and work towards a more compassionate and equitable society.

    They absolutely know she'll likely never pay the fines. It's not about the fines, though. It's about the psychological warfare that's going on every day against the modern-day American untouchable class. Communities that continually hand out the same tickets to these folks every single day are only digging themselves in deeper in the long run.

    Homeless people are not criminals What is criminal is how we are treated...like trash, like second class citizens, like nothing. The damage being homeless does to a person is unimaginable. Wealthy landowners, lying real estate agents make it so much more difficult. Having been homeless, it is a constant fear when you manage to find a rental. No grounds evictions exist. Wealthy owners make their own laws, protected by the greedy agencies waiting for a commission from a sale. It is despicable. Blessings to the homeless today. From Australia.

That's why a gofundme could work for this lady, get her back on her feet and then she could start rebuilding her life. Me starting campaigning for ending homelessness won't help her because that takes years or decades to bear fruit. Still, your channel and work is amazing, we both have Hungarian origins:)

    It seems as soon as someone is in a downward spiral, there are more who will trip you up than help you out. Granted there are a few who dont know how to act if you offer help. Ive been on both sides of the fence and helped others when i could. From giving bus money to a meal to staying with me for awhile. Most were good experiences. The bad experiences were when someone felt i was at a disadvantage so instead of just a job thought they force me to do other things instead but call it house cleaning 😅 and i literally laughed in their face. Then gaslight you and say you have the problem. Im so glad you make these videoes as i see alot of "Dreamers" here that dont qualify for special help. Were all human but dont know how to treat each other any more. Society is deteriorating due to unequality gap growing.

    I don’t know if there’s legal grounds, but once we signed over power of attorney, they had legal authority to do whatever they want. The biggest one is what they call work therapy, which is just a new sexy term for slavery.

    Yes, there ARE some religious organizations that do take client's government assistance. Even the Los Angeles Rescue Mission is doing it because donations are down, and if they take government funding, then officials can tell the mission what to do. So they began to charge a fee,after a while.

    “We have come to a clear realization of the fact, however, that true individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. Necessitous men are not free men. People who are hungry, people who are out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made. In our day these economic truths have become accepted as self-evident. We have accepted, so to speak, a Second Bill of Rights under which a new basis of security and prosperity can be established for all regardless of station, race, or creed. Among these are: The right to a useful and remunerative job in the industries or shops or farms or mines of the Nation; The right to earn enough to provide adequate food and clothing and recreation; The right of every farmer to raise and sell his products at a return which will give him and his family a decent living; The right of every businessman, large and small, to trade in an atmosphere of freedom from unfair competition and domination by monopolies at home or abroad; The right of every family to a decent home;" - President Franklin D Roosevelt (1944)

    We stayed in my car most of the time it was broke down. During stimulus check stayed at motels didn't take long to go through that money had to eat . Fortunately when got car running went to social services fortunately got help. It's rough n people r still losing their homes jobs etc. Now we have a little apartment. While in the motels with help was able to get kid back in school. Has Asperger's adhd anxiety disorder depression also has light sensitivity touch sensitivity eating issues. Now in apartment can teach them how to cook clean do dishes etc. The government n everything should b putting more programs in place to help humans off the streets etc get a job n keep it. If they have mental health issues health issues etc help with a program to help them. Ones with addictions put them in a program to get them better so they can take care of themselves. Some have problems with following the rules of the programs. America has always helped other countries. Im Thankful n Grateful for the help was able to receive. Prayers for All of whom r struggling 🙏🙏🙏😇😇😇

    If I'm not mistaken Grant pass is at the center of a case that the US supreme Court just agreed to take that will decide whether or not the criminalization of homelessness violates the Constitution's ban on cruel and unusual punishment. Given the makeup of the current Court I'm extremely skeptical that anything good will come out of the lawsuit. Whichever way they decide a lot will be riding on the impending case. Making life so unbearable in the hope that the homeless will just leave is not a long-term solution.

    Why don't you go to the Grants Pass Police department, and ask them what they want these people to do. Where can these people go, because fines are not a solution to the problem. Get an interview with local government, or the local news outlet. We need to get the other side of the story, and don't tell me they don't want to talk. It is easy to upload this, harder to find information on what can she do, and is there any help.

    I feel for all homeless people it is so sad. They are also human beings that are down in their luck trying to get it together. There should be homeless apartments like they have in Bellingham Washington. They helped my brother. He was homeless for 15 years and they built these apartments and they have their Social Security and they pay a little amount of rent and their electricity. There’s counseling there’s rehab thereHelped my brother so much bless his heart because he’s now in heaven, but the homeless need help they need a purpose help to find work. I think they deserve that.
