- While leaders in San Francisco praised the Supreme Court's ruling giving cities nationwide the power to clear homeless encampments, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass called the decision a "disappointment." Adam Yamaguchi has more.

It's also illegal to build a cabin in the wilderness. Forced to play the game their way. Land of the free.
Thank you
Build? Oh that’s funny! The bums and loser don’t “build” anything. They flop
@@kittypaw1111 Consider those who are productive members of society that are homeless then. I'd love to ditch society and go live in the woods without the man f'n with me.

USSA instead the former USSR!
No actually Americans think it's ridiculous that veterans are out there on the streets homeless and you're giving Ukraine billions of dollars. Instead of helping people that are hurting in America you're actually trying to penalize them even more.
All foreign aid should stop until we get control of our own problems under control. Close the border. Lower the cost of health insurance, medical care, college tuition for starters.
They can do both. You think the congress they have now will pass laws for this? Take a look who is working there.
There needs to be a large designated are set up for them to pitch their tents. I'm sure their are plenty of places besides the sidewalks. For many people shelters haven't been safe places.
we're giving ukraine money now so that russia doesn't become a bigger (and more expensive problem) later.
it is deplorable how veterans are treated, but we also have to be realistic about international politics and what we need to do to keep the world from tipping to the bad.
You forgot to mention about the billions to Israel.
Drop rent prices
Thank you
That can happen two ways, I think. Developers can build sufficiently more rental units and/or renters start leaving the area in enough numbers that push up the vacancy rate.
@@devinagrace1999get a job first
You can buy an apartment building and charge cheap rent, put your money where your mouth is libby!
Another option to consider is to relocate to an area where vacancy rates are high, putting downward pressure on rents. Areas in the Dakotas and Nebraska are like this. In Fargo, ND you can get a nice 1-bedroom apartment for $550-600/month.
As if there aren't areas that could be designated for tent housing with trash and restrooms. There's to much money to be made by governments not to resolve the homeless problem. Billions every year on paperwork, phone calls, lunch meetings and still the problem grows.
Why make billions once off of one event when you can allow the situation to fester and run for office on it indefinitely, making billions ALL OF THE TIME?
YES. it'd be so simple to give homeless people an actual address that they can put on applications. it's such a cheap solution and gets everyone out of the way
That's BS! The federal government budgets billions of dollars for veterans each year. What are the states doing with the money is the question.
@@Sanetaification whatever they want.
You are expecting ppl who aren’t of sound mind to adhere to a solution somebody running for office thought up.
That isn’t how homeless ppl operate.
So where are they supposed to go?
You don’t care.
It’s not a problem until it impedes your daily life or, you are told it is virtuous to care about it.
You will find this to the the wholesale point of view of city dwellers
Perhaps get off drugs, work, stay with family or friends… do what the people that support themselves do….

In every city they have abandon building and homes and high rises that can be converted into shelters . The cites and government had abandon these cities . But we give billionaires 34 % Tax’s breaks and that money can help assist the homeless . I yield back.

Are you homeless
Its amazing that our government and states,city turned a blind eye to the homeless, now they are making a crime to be homeless 😢
BS
No, they are making it a crime to pitch a tent on a public sidewalk!!! We shouldn't have to step over needles and excrement on the sidewalk!!!
@@cindygilmer2311I know veterans that are out on the streets homeless right now because their rent doubled. We have money to give Ukraine billions of dollars though.
People are on the streets because any $ they have goes to drugs before ANYTHING else. A lot of them don’t want the responsibility of rent, utilities and a job. I say keep moving them on until they get their life together.
God bless the homeless vets 🙏
give them a free ticket to anywhere they want to go, like they do with illegal immigrants, give them some walking money, and access to job training that is relevant.
Prioritize the US citizen, not foreign countries.
The migrants are actually staying at the comfort suites and they get debit cards. Amazing
I agree ,, your children shouldn't have to see homeless people everywhere every day their whole life. That is demoralizing.
Realy?! Demoralizing?! Not everyone live a cushy great life like you. Have compassion. Kids live on the street too.
The good news is Biden will be gone soon and we won't be giving billions of dollars to Ukraine so people won't be homeless anymore.
Demoralizing? To the children? Maybe children should learn to be thankful for what they have, and realize not everyone has it so easy. Maybe they could learn compassion, empathy, maybe even philanthropy. Every person has a story, if you don't know it, don't judge. Could be you some day. Just imagine that!!
@@intricatelytangled and those same kids are the ones who got kicked out of their house because their parents thought it was a way to straighten them out. I’ve met young boys (14-15) who were tricking just to get money for food or cigarettes or, yes, drugs and alcohol.
@@barbaramcmillen4204I'm a Gen X. Look, the world is cold. I am pretty sure those boys Knew what would tick their parents off. It is not Always the parents fault. So EVERY parent of those boys didn't try to get along?
They're making it sound like the only option is arrest, when in actuality the homeless people are, in fact given a choice to move to another area. They will only be arrested when they resist being moved.
We will arrest a homeless person for not having a home to move to and a place to move to, but we will send money abroad for other countries to protect their citizens? Nope. Not okay.
At lest when they're arrested they get free food, clothing and shelter.
Sick!
@@muddyshoesgardenerthey don’t send actual money though. They send weapons and resources.
Would it be great if they use those resources for our own people? Definitely but how would that make the US look if they didn’t help other countries?
It’s all a game
@@muddyshoesgardenerthey do have the option to get a d*mn job n get their shat together!! Those who are able. Which is a majority of the homeless.
USA Made it ok to turn homes into investments. A home should not be investment. There should be regulations on how much you could actually sell a home for.
Soooo why not convert a few luxury hotels into shelters/housing for our AMERICAN CITIZENS who are homeless? Like what is being done for all the ILLEGALS.?
Here in the land of the free (and also the land of for-profit prisons), we are criminalizing homelessness? Got it.
Legally, streets are only be allowed for movement, not for business or housing
Or sleeping or going to the bathroom or setting up tents or laying in the road passed out or doing drugs.
You mean like _street walkers?!_ 😏

Streets should be the root of all businesses. Literally. Don't take away little Jane Doe's opportunity to sell lemonade on the street. Love this about Thailand and most Asian countries.
Does that include the homeless people that lost their homes to wildfires and floods? Will they get arrested too?
Yeah I know, this is just too stupid. Sounds like politicians want to cover up something about all the money they wasted not housing the homeless.

Too bad rent is 3 times a normal income, yet we have dying little towns all over in the flyover states
In the U.S. Heartland, e.g., the Dakotas and Nebraska, it's very reasonable to keep a roof over one's head, and work is easy to find. In Fargo, a 1-bedroom apartment can set you back ~$600/month or so, and that's for a nice one.

When you make drug use and shoplifting non crimes, you’re inviting problems to your city like homelessness. I’m willing to bet, that a large number are addicts. They travel to cities like LA. All the while planning on such behavior

Does anybody really think losing Inalienable rights means anything to anybody anymore?
It’s totally incomplete. Sure u can arrest someone for popping a tent but eventually homeless people need to sleep again… then what?… We need a real solution, not ignorance.
Most people who are addicted to drugs do not want to live too far from their drug dealers. Essentially, the dealers are as responsible for the vagrancy as the drug addicted transients themselves are.
@@Scorch1028 So you think all homeless people have substance use issues? Wrong.

@@chetpomeroy1399 And how are these people supposed to get there? Walk? And you're assuming every homeless person is able to work. I don't think you're educated about the plight of the homeless.
@@Scorch1028bro it cost $800 a month for a shipping container right now in Las Vegas. Corporations have gotten way to greedy and Joe Biden let them get away with it. This isn't a homeless problem. This is a problem that every American is dealing with right now. Rent is a total joke.
So this is country wide? People better hope AI doesn't make them homeless.
Tax the rich
Continue tax breaks for billionares and churches.
Weird how a “Christian” nation treats the very people Jesus advocated for.
The majority of Americans are members of some denomination/faction of the Christian faith, but its government is entirely secular. By the way, Jesus Christ himself was a homeless person, and actually admitted to this.
The church doesn’t control then nation, your just prejudice.
@@crazybirdybird4312 my point was that the political party that is currently claiming to be the Party of Christ, and their followers who are flirting with “Christian” nationalism, are the same people who are pushing policies like these that make being poor punishable by fines and imprisonment.

San Francisco doesn’t have the money or space to shelter all of the people in the city. So where are they supposed to go?
To the Apple Arena and Google campus. They are the guilty for so much wrong in America and especially the Bay area.
This is terrible. The supreme Court should be ashamed of their decision.
I'm against our government sending billions to Ukraine. I'm against our government letting millions of un documented people into our country. I'm against a homeless person taking a crap in the middle of a parking lot and kids seeing it happen, but I would rather help the homeless in our country before I agree to send send billions for a war or millions on the free for all here in Texas.

End homelessness. Housing first
California’s housing first is a ‘one size fits some’ solution.
I'm surprised the ADA hasn't sued the city for allowing so many tents blocking sidewalks for people in wheelchairs. Why don't they move all those homeless people into one of the many abandoned cities in clifornia and let them live there away from the public where they won't bother anyone or get harassed by police.
Bus them to the ghost towns in Virginia
For us non drug addicted or mentally ill camping is only allowed in certain places. Why do they get a pass on restrictions? Accept help with rules or go to jail and get help period!
World hunger can be solved with less money than was sent to isr and ukr
Nothing is going to change in California. Newsom has to go
Change is the only constant
Why not do what Amsterdam did and create a specific place, needle park. Where all the addicts had to live while being offered help. Crime went down, streets were clean and safe. It’s not that hard
to find what other countries have done and implement it here.
Its called "harm reduction"
Should've ban the car from parking on public street too.
Just lost whatever confidence
I had in the Supreme Court.

Rebubble to this statement. Look in the mirror and say it. And if you're not good at crossing your fingers, you should practice.
If help, treatment, a home or shelter is offered and they don’t accept, then I think the city has the right to enforce legal avenues.
So, you CAN own ten houses, but you MUST own one.
Keep water trucks active and continually spray the sidewalks nightly. Criminalizes poverty? It’s criminalizing vagrancy.
Vagrancy? Please educate yourself.
Double-digit drop because the state keeps flying and bussing them to the next state. Nice try.
Los Angeles has compounded the homeless problem by not enforcing the laws. Camping wherever you want should never be an option. The city needs to desinate locations where homeless people can stay overnight, with bathrooms and security.
It’s astounding the level of contempt and hatred the SC have for the most vulnerable and powerless in our country
Thank you SUPREME COURT JUSTICES for standing up for law abiding, tax paying citizens. These addicts are ENDANGERING people, more than COVID.
Just need to think it through people.. if you look homeless you better prove you're not
Its not a failed response, the problem is a lot of these people have burnt every bridge they had. During COVID, they were able to spend all their money buying God knows what mostly drugs without paying a penny for rent. A lot of them are clearly content on living homeless. I dont know if it will ever get better; Not when you relax on enforcing laws and essentially give them a free pass to do whatever they want without being held accountable. Its only going to get worse.

It's about time. It was that lone 9th Federal Circuit Appeals Court decision messing everything up. People should not be allowed to leave their tents up on sidewalks any more than on roads. That's a taking of public property. Politicians should fix the economy rather than spending money on Ukraine and war in general.
Yes. A home is human right
Camping? I've never seen a family go camping like homeless ppl before?
Bring back the homestead Act. The federal government manages roughly 640 million acres of land. A small fraction of that could provide a solution if maintained and improved. At least for the American citizens who don't want to be homeless.

Nobody has a right to be anywhere period. Get a job, buy a house, or rent a house, or live with your relatives, or leave the country
Easier said than done…mental illness, addiction, high cost of housing..
You, obviously, have never been homeless. So easy for you to find solutions- do this, do that. You are very ignorant of the plight of many of these people! 😠
100% nobody owes anyone anything.
By the grace of God, there go I.
I am appalled by so many hateful comments. Do you think anyone wants to be homeless? People are homeless for many reasons. Illness and the inability to work. Woman escaping from abuse. People that lost their jobs and can't find another one. Some people work full time jobs but it still isn't enough to even have a 500 foot square apartment in this economy. And yes, drug addiction is also a kind of illness. Where are they supposed to go? These people need support and help not to be treated like criminals.
a double digit drop in street homelessness could be between 10 and 99. Not much of a drop, eh?
Supreme Court Needs term limits for sure!💯
So if poverty is the result of capitalism and poverty is a crime, it would seem logical to criminalize people who support capitalism by punishing those who use money. Seems logical to me.
Force people to quit being turds.
I'm a volunteer social worker here in la. Newsome hasn't got a clue
I don’t think anyone has a clue what it’s like to be homeless in the heat of summer or cold of winter. No showers or laundry facilities. No calm and quiet spot for the homeless to sit down and relax. Being homeless is a lot of work 24/7.
Praise the Lord!!! Finally!!!! I live in Seattle and Im sick of these people camping on our sidewalks. I have to step around needles and human waste and fear for my safety with all the mentally ill and drug addicts around. There should be three choices: 1) be housed in a shelter, which is offered, but they would have to follow rules there 2) treatment or 3) Jail. We have some real jackwagons here running our city. Im ashamed to have people visit.
That's why I want to know why is the mayor's and the governor of that state not work with the cities and build shelters for these people and get them off the streets and get them off of them. That haven't tense stuff. You know, it's not healthy and I don't understand that, but make the shelters safe for them. If you have to have a lot of people in there if you have to have fix it where they have a certain way to get into the shelters and you can't walk in off the street. What I mean is to borrow anybody and you'd have to show ID or show something so that you can go in and live . Build build shelters, build places for hits people. Run and safely you can do it.
where are they going to build shelters, and how quickly can that happen.
Money Money Money, we can't do this or that because of Money Money Money, it costs Money Money Money, to move them, it costs Money Money Money, if we touch their paper homes, they want Money Money Money, to replace their paper homes and well you're at it they need Money Money Money, to buy food, drinks, cloth, shoes, and cars, so before you even think about touching their piles you'd better be ready cause they have lawyers business cards. Someone told them to wait till they give you Money Money Money.
Does Biden know about these homeless people?????
to be fair; in some people's opinions, Biden doesn't even know who he is most of the time.

The real solution is fix economy. Homelessness, higher rents, high food prices, high mortgage prices, etc.. are cause by this inflation.

Don't go outside with no money. Don't leave your wallet at home.. you must be able to prove at any time that you are not homeless.

If the police put homeless people in jail, then these individuals will get “3 hots, and a cot”. That’s a step up from being on the street.

They go through twice a week and throw everybody stuff away who don't move it in time and they have a 2-hour window to get all their stuff out of the way or the street sweepers come by and throw everybody stuff away. Then the people have to start over with nothing which is hard to do already and then they could take that money they're using for all these trash trucks twice a week to go towards an encampment somewhere with a bathroom a shower trash can just the basics. They wouldn't be out there if they had another choice.

Why are there homeless?
Because they don't want to accept help. There are abundant programs but these homeless don't want help, they want to do their drugs and not pay taxes.
Great question, many factors. Mental health issues with no place to go,
Drug and alcohol addiction.= refusing to enter treatment.
Loss of housing due to increased costs. Many American's are only a couple
of months away from homelessness if economic situation changed.
Lack of family support when above situations happen.
