In a release sent Thursday Night, the city details a litany of issues; including health and safety concerns, environmental impacts, and security issues.
It's because people are losing their homes and apartments because rents are way too high. They figure kick the American people out and they will have more places for illegals to stay. It's not just there it's happening everywhere because people are greedy.
No. No it won't, because most people are responsible and self reliant, and live within their means. People who end up like this or ones who can't pay their rent (I personally know a few who are struggling, and TRUST me, all of them live like they have way more than they do, as in 100% of them - as they cry broke while on their $1400 iPhone and as they head out to the fourth take out dinner of the week) and these people, or a LOT of them, are what the leftist politicians call "our new Americans" but they've never contributed a penny, but are supposed to get on the freebie bus.

@@tomcloud54 In the past (think 100yrs ago), these situations were dealt with...they were called "poor farms". If you didn't have enough money you would live on a poor farm, and work to run the place that gave you food and board. There were rules and structure, it was not anything goes. If a person was mentally ill, then they went to live long term in the "insane asylum" instead. Patients at the asylum worked jobs there if they could too to help with their keep. Since these able bodied folks at both the "poor farm" and "asylum" did work as they were able, this helped to decrease the burden on the tax payer. BTW the asylum had a section for drug addicts too to get them sober and productive again as well. If someone was repeatedly detoxed, then given work and sent back out in the world only to become a problematic drug addict again, then eventually they were just held long term at the asylum so they could not go back in public and continue disturbing the peace. We need to bring back these old ideas that actually worked.

@@gingerkat74 What is not ok, is 300 homeless people in a world of massive abundance the likes of which the world has never seen. If people are homeless and they crap in the river or the woods, that is just life. What you might ask is where do the wealthy with multiple homes and RV's dump their sewage ? Where does your sewage go ? Is it okay ? I have fished for most of my life, and I always know to avoid sections of the river directly downstream from sewage outlets because there will be NO fish there,.and even if there was, NO EAT DAT
In areas of Georgia they have cut down massive amounts of trees and eliminated large forested areas to prevent these "campers". Its made our city look awful and It's infuriating that destroying nature was the option they chose in order to prevent this growing problem.
This is what happens when A: housing becomes unaffordable B: Mental health is regarded as a luxury as long as you can afford it C: poor mental health is stigmatized and criminalized D: cost of living is too steep for potential caretakers or surrogates
This is what happens when our borders are left open so the drugs can flow in unchecked, we had a president that wanted to stop this, but no the people voted to open our borders and let the drugs, the gang bangers, the criminals, the crazies in. Don't complain if you voted for any democrat in the last fifty years.
This is what happens when corrupt republicans AND democrats run our country. They line their pockets, giving away our money to the rich in the form of tax breaks, ie trickle down economics. Do we understand what’s really going on? It’s not just the democrats it’s the fault of both parties. So let’s stop playing their game- they want us against each other because it take the attention away from the real culprits- they themselves, our corrupt elected officials.
Because they want handouts not responsibility. I'm tired of hearing I'm in recovery. Its called jobs not drugs. I was a single mom. Worked 2 jobs. I'm 60 now, still work. Our government needs to put people to work, not on welfare. I'm tired of raising grown ass adults I don't know by my checks getting smaller because of them.

The national emergency is that we have too many people on welfare and the 'urban campers' don't want a job, they don't want to abide by society's rules. They only want to drink and do drugs. Go to any homeless camp and ask them if they are willing to work in exchange for housing. The real homeless who want help are in shelters trying to get work and better themselves. I've had too many interactions with homeless camps.
300 in one spot is a national emergency?! There are way bigger encampments than this. Law not enforced is the cause. That. That is the national problem.
What the heck , we should have just built a city with all the cash we wasted in the last 4 years and said " here you go , here's an empty city .. go live in it ! "
But that waste was needed to go to all the politicians and bureaucrats who used it up on worthless programs! Surely you don't want to add THEM to the homeless numbers, do you???
Biden spent: Afghanistan = 4 Billion dollars (probably more, weapons, aircraft, night vision, 100+ armored vehicles, uniforms, and support property, and he gave it and the entire country to the TALIBAN terrorists. Who are responsible for killing hundreds and thousands of Americans. Iran (yes, Biden sent Iran 100 million dollars Open Border = 450+ billion dollars Ukraine = 175 billion dollars and a lot more. We could have solved homelessness several times over had he not given tax payer money to foreign countries and his open border fiasco, that has also brought more crime and too many murders to the sanctuary cities.
If you have a $100 a day drug habit and you manage that, then you could be paying rent for shelter , but these people make the choice every day on which way they prefer to spend their money.

If I ever would up homeless, I'd get myself to Mexico somehow and then re-cross the border turning myself in, then saying my name was "Hector Rodriguez", but I lost my ID a long time ago. I'd be sheltered at least, and fed too. Probably have a decent place to get my laundry clean. Stuff like that.

Shipped in my ass , those are your neighbors and brothers and sisters . They are the best of your community , and it is seen by how your community treats them .
As a person was almost homeless at one point, I would like to advocate for these folks. No one WANTS to be homeless. Working hard anymore, doesn't ensure you will not be homeless. I worked as a registered nurse for 36 years and I'm a Navy vet. The VA stepped up and helped me with housing when I lost my job, became unable to work, and had nowhere to go. I was lucky, I got my SSDI approved in about 18 months but for some people, it can take years! For something they PAID FOR. Now the Supreme quack court has made it okay to treat homelessness as a crime. Despicable.
Can't believe this is happening in Jamestown, South Africa. Appreciate you putting your city and state by your call signal so we'll know where the heck you're at.
I even went to thier channel assuming they would say what area they cover. Nope. I even checked for a contact address. They mention Buffalo in other videos and it is obviously a Democrat occupied zone because of the use of " illegal campers" so I am guessing NY. But it could be Africa. We have to guess.
Well they did tell us all the county , so it really is not very hard to find the city in western New York State . your welcome . I can't believe I had to just defend a news station on their story , because people can't comprehend properly . I still think the media are turds but people wake up !

That park belongs to the taxpayers who can’t even safely use it now. They are homeless I get it but they don’t have the right to take over parks and trash everything
Keep helping the Immigrants...... While our homeless with drugs and mental instability is a disgusting problem.....what's going on in this government of ours????????????,

You never even once voted for any federal leaders they got voted by separate groups who have no obligation to vote according to the will of the Nation . You can only ever actually elect your local (republic) government , not a federal government . In a Republic the government serves the people , in a democracy the people serve the government .

How is it that no one in law enforcement can cut off the flow of drugs to these encampments? I was sitting in a parking lot a few years back and all of the sudden this pick up truck pulls up and all the transients came running up like it was the ice cream truck. Everybody bought their drugs and they all went up into the woods there to get high. How is it that no one is able to catch the dealers?
the STOCK MARKET IS GOING UP UIP UP as jobs fly overseas and profit margins increase for korp amerika by sending every job it can to cheap 3rd world labour. of course... for the avg working american or EU worker... things are on the slide... down. for a long time now... and it is not going to end... ever.
The homeless epidemic is growing exponentially. We need a combination of government, citizens, homeless citizens, phycologist, medical, and a whole group of people to sit down and discuss long term solutions.
What state is this in? Looks like some parts of Los Angeles. People have a right to do what they can to survive. The current economic and societal systems have failed for many people.
It’s central Virginia, right on the James river, remember James Town was one of the first English settlements in America. It’s a county now, but the actual ruins are in a national park on the river.
The system is too busy taking care of all the illegals that have come in under this current clown 🤡 administration…..MILLIONS of them and spending BILLIONS on them !!
The biggest failing system is our excess production of unnecessary products, aka the trash, and our system to regulate production and manage our trash more effectively.
I was born there and remember walking along those tracks /river to get to the dam to go fishing. Plus at that time the city created a river walkway and even had music concerts along the river. But that was during the 1960’s and I’ve been so much happier living in the West coast. Last time I was there was in 2018 and you could sense the approaching decline/death of a city.All the factories are and zero employment opportunities.Totally stunned by this report and wonder what’s going to happen when winter arrives- considering that Jamestown receives the winter blizzards hours before Buffalo.
I have an apt. I have money. I don't have enough money to pay the utilities. I don't have enough money to eat and pay utilities and rent. I don't want to leave my apt. It's scary to think about sleeping in public. I can't earn enough money to keep up.
Wait! Didn't they change the minimum wage to something like $15 an hour? That's $2400 a month minimum! You can't seriously tell me that they can't afford rent.

rent is toooo high everywhere, as housing shortage... cuz... of wicked overpopulation.... from rampant immigration from 3rd world and no money for US citizens as it is all going to pointless other ppls wars in countries most ppl could NOT care less about.
All of these negative comments are why these people are not getting any assistance. You treat human beings like garbage, they’re gonna act like garbage. You treat them like animals, and they’re gonna act like animals. The shelter system in this country is ridiculous, dangerous, and they don’t respect anyone’s rights.
How much does it cost to not be homeless there? In California it costs about $70,000 after income tax and no health insurance. Prisoners cost about $106,000 per year to house and care for each one.
It's funny that Jamestown thinks this is a big deal. In Los Angeles we have lived with 60,000 at least homeless all over the city with many miles long encampments, unusable parks, crime, filth. For many, many years. Since our state government is finally starting to take action, the ones who do not want housing will migrate, hopefully, elsewhere. Perhaps Jamestown?
That this looks quite small to me? 🤷♂It's sad because living here on the west coast I've gotten used to seeing much more massive homeless encampments.🤦♂
Why are you calling them campers in an encampment They're literally homeless people So now we're referring to homeless people as campers like they have a choice to be out there are you at your mind As someone who used to be homeless I find this post disrespectful
Look at the mess and trash they leave. That's the main problem WE as a society have to figure this out because WE can not allow them to continue to take advantage of society while not participating

The national emergency is that we have too many people on welfare and the 'urban campers' don't want a job, they don't want to abide by society's rules. They only want to drink and do drugs. Go to any homeless camp and ask them if they are willing to work in exchange for housing. The real homeless who want help are in shelters trying to get work and better themselves. I've had too many interactions with homeless camps.

But that waste was needed to go to all the politicians and bureaucrats who used it up on worthless programs! Surely you don't want to add THEM to the homeless numbers, do you???
Biden spent:
Afghanistan = 4 Billion dollars (probably more, weapons, aircraft, night vision, 100+ armored vehicles, uniforms, and support property, and he gave it and the entire country to the TALIBAN terrorists. Who are responsible for killing hundreds and thousands of Americans.
Iran (yes, Biden sent Iran 100 million dollars
Open Border = 450+ billion dollars
Ukraine = 175 billion dollars
and a lot more. We could have solved homelessness several times over had he not given tax payer money to foreign countries and his open border fiasco, that has also brought more crime and too many murders to the sanctuary cities.

As a person was almost homeless at one point, I would like to advocate for these folks. No one WANTS to be homeless. Working hard anymore, doesn't ensure you will not be homeless. I worked as a registered nurse for 36 years and I'm a Navy vet. The VA stepped up and helped me with housing when I lost my job, became unable to work, and had nowhere to go. I was lucky, I got my SSDI approved in about 18 months but for some people, it can take years! For something they PAID FOR. Now the Supreme quack court has made it okay to treat homelessness as a crime. Despicable.
Can't believe this is happening in Jamestown, South Africa.

Maybe we should wonder why there are so many homeless?
How is it that no one in law enforcement can cut off the flow of drugs to these encampments? I was sitting in a parking lot a few years back and all of the sudden this pick up truck pulls up and all the transients came running up like it was the ice cream truck. Everybody bought their drugs and they all went up into the woods there to get high. How is it that no one is able to catch the dealers?

How much does it cost to not be homeless there? In California it costs about $70,000 after income tax and no health insurance. Prisoners cost about $106,000 per year to house and care for each one.
It's funny that Jamestown thinks this is a big deal. In Los Angeles we have lived with 60,000 at least homeless all over the city with many miles long encampments, unusable parks, crime, filth. For many, many years. Since our state government is finally starting to take action, the ones who do not want housing will migrate, hopefully, elsewhere. Perhaps Jamestown?
