- Exhausted from dealing with a homeless encampment adjacent to his Capitol Hill home last summer, Brendan McCormick says he and his wife put their townhome on the market to sell last August. Read the full story at cbsloc.al/3y2EGhQ
You can be homeless but that isn't an excuse to be an animal. Near one of my businesses homeless people fight, kill eachother, do drugs, break glass bottles that puncture peoples car tires including mines, put trash all over, poop all over, harass my costumers. It isn't fair for me I worked so hard to open my businesses for many years. I had a homeless guy attack one of my employees a year ago and they quit after working for me for 3 years. People feel unsafe.
You're focusing on the wrong thing. The problem is mental health and employers refusing to pay a livable wage.
@@eelnoops5200 You're focusing on the wrong thing. The problem is drugs and them refusing to work for a living. Very few are clean and fewer are mentally ill. We need forced rehab and a closed border. Drugs, drugs, drugs, and more drugs are ruining our nation and all neighborhoods are affected.
@@standdown4929 Because the current war on drugs has been super effective??? Let's try creating affordable housing and jobs that actually pay enough to afford housing in Denver.
Take out Cartel n get people Housing . The only way
Having as homeless, doesn't mean these people need to trash the place. It's hard for me to feel bad if they trash everything 😕.
Is there trash around. They should not be charged or go on a hunt to see trash can. I doubt they want to trash just to be a jerk.
If trash effects your empathy then I hope you've never had children.
😂 you got money, you go fix it
It's a continuing manifestation of why they're homeless in the first place. When your life is a wreck, it shows.
@@nataliehampton2589 I am homeless.
Homelessness is no excuse for the trashiness, where does it say that only people with a home know how to throw trash away and don't just live on top of the icky
Welcome to California!!! We quit going downtown disgusting crime and drugs because of our government.
This is Denver.

DEFUNDED POLICE?
According to a Forbes report from August 2020, at least 13 cities have defunded or are in the process of defunding their police departments:
Cities defunded police departments - National Police Support Fund
New York City
Washington, D.C.
Baltimore
Philadelphia
Los Angeles
San Francisco
Atlanta
Minneapolis
Seattle
Salt Lake City
Portland, Oregon
Hartford, Connecticut
Norman Oklahoma,
Austin, Texas
According to Forbes, funding cuts ranged from $1 billion in New York City to $3.5 million in Seattle and $850,000 in smaller cities like Norman, Oklahoma. However, Forbes also reports that several cities have increased police spending, including Houston, San Diego, Nashville, and Durham, North Carolina.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN CITIES DEFUND POLICE DEPARTMENTS?
While anti-police advocates like to say that defunding measures do not have an impact on violent crime, the statistics clearly tell a different story.
In Minneapolis, homicides increased by 60% in 2020, with many of the crimes left unsolved because there are fewer police detectives and other resources to work the cases. Things have gotten so bad that the city’s residents are filing a lawsuit against the city council to restore police funding.
“We are in an urgent state of emergency right now due to the crime,” said Cathy Spann, one of the plaintiffs in the case, told KSTP news. “As citizens, the City of Minneapolis owes us. We have a right to expect that we can be safe walking the street, that our children can play in their yards. Enough is enough.”
For its part, the city’s council seems to still be in disbelief that cutting the police force will lead to an increase in violent crime
@@blueeyedwolf2205 It's amazing how this country's government claims they can't afford to take care of the homeless or the ones in need. But they could somehow come up with billions of dollars overnight to help the people in Ukraine.
Don’t blame the government!! These people have way too many issues the governments money (ours) doesn’t provide a permanent solution!
Regretted having to leave Denver in 07 where I had lived there for 23 years but looks like it was a blessing in disguise, never want to go back to the place I use to love.
Same here, but I left in 2010 before it got bad
I left in 2018. Unlivable now.
Had to move here for school. I’m rethinking moving or transferring…it is no longer the state I visited back in 2008……recently took a trip to Estes park. It’s beautiful there. Denver is a whole different story,however.
I grew up in Denver. Since the 80s I have watched that beautiful city turn to garbage, I avoid it at all cost now. I lay the blame at the feet of those that hate California, so they leave, relocate to other cities and take their values and ideals with them, turning their new city into the same glory hole they just left. Great plan, hate what's happening where you are at so spread the virus, go back to where you came from and ruin your own cities.
I understand, and empathize.
Why do these lowlifes get rewarded for ruining their lives???!!!
This stuff is happening in almost all major USA cities!!!!
Every democrat city.
@@readawn6788 nope.. EVERY CITY!!
@@lordgoro is the fall of american empire,the root cause,is the degradation and lose of morals.but you want "liberty" there is your liberty.
NOT happening in my right wing community ! Its not a sanctuary city though ! We dont waste our money on BS programs that encourage homeless ppl . As a matter a fact , my right wing town just wrote a check for all new police vehicles ! Not a loan ! Not a federal aid ! Your homeless the local church will help you out with food n a place to shower n sleep . AND help you find a job ! We wont give you a hand out in cash ! But we will give you the means and knowledge to better yourself ! Much BETTER way to approach the problem !

Over priced housing for more state and local taxes. Over priced rents for under paid jobs almost like the system is designed to create this not fix this.
The democrats system
@@anonymouscitizen2732 both parties are the same they know by keeping people choosing sides it makes it easier to let each party special interest become richer while we work harder for less.
Exactly
Its a drug problem and the fact that Democrats and Liberals encourage bums to take over cities.
@@shawnkay5462 Yes, drugs are a big part of the problem, and democrats have lobbied long and hard for bills that provide more money for mental health services, drug rehab services, and affordable housing. Guess who always votes down these bills that could change so many lives? Republicans!!! How do you justify that?
They did that where I live in Upstate Ny, now the hotels are drug and crime infested and just as run down. Plus it effected our tourism now that we no longer have hotels for the seasonal crowd. No more tourism means no shoppers for our local businesses.
i had heard this but thought it was for a small number of people. What is your source so I might read up on it.
So glad our Governor spent time in California during his youth soaking up their values... They've removed all the homeless from the Venice Beach area for the 4th of July weekend. Should be able to get a prime tent location Tuesday morning.
@Ann Hanover
Kind of like refugees.
this is symptom. the real problem is the politicians that let this happen.
they are bought and blackmailed
PERSPECTIVE: The homeless encampment situation in Denver is a minuscule PIN DROP of what we are dealing with in L.A., we are at FULL BLOWN, COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL, EPIDEMIC here.
Denver force people to southern cities like Colorado Springs and Pueblo. You can't use a public restroom unless you are a aying customer. I recently had a homeless woman follow me around the Dollar store. She was disheveled looking and talking to herself. She kept getting up behind me and all I could think is she just might jump or stab me.
My best defense I found was to smile and I said hi. She kinda grinned and she wondered out of the store. Another thing I notice is people hang out at gas stations knocking on my car window asking for cash like I am their mom or someone who is obligated to give money for whatever reason. They never ask "Can you buy me a sandwich?" Its not my place to judge but where does it stop?
That is why we need places to treat people with mental problems ! the streets are not the place.
Just because she was like that does not mean they all are.
the econommy is in slow decline lord jack wants it that way
No respect!! Look at all the trash! Get rid of them!!
If no one respects you then why would ya respect anyone back?
Are you talking about the capitol building full of trash? Yes we need to change those in office cause they are trash!
Drop them off in the desert somewhere.
Maybe if someone put a few dumpsters there it wouldn't add up to this mess. Imagine your house without any garbage cans. It'll look like that mess in no time.
This didn't used to happen when this was a red City now that it's a blue left City go ahead and take a look around. Lol!!
It's amazing how this country's government claims they can't afford to take care of the homeless or the ones in need. But they could somehow come up with billions of dollars overnight to help the people in Ukraine.
Amen
They help the NAZIS in Ukraine
This is normal when citizens vote blue! Smh
Just think if they built a few less jets or tanks. Billions would be leftover. Homeless isn't a congress problem. Thats the problem.
I used to be homeless. The homeless issues will never stop without addressing the real issues. Many need mental health help, drug addiction help, and other resources. Denver claims that they are trying to address the homeless issue, yet keep closing down shelters, leave many building simply abandoned, and don't even care where the homeless go that was in one of the shelters they shut down. Homelessness is a trap that can be hard to get out of. However, with God and a little determination you can get out of that trap.
they are poverty, and the poor will be on sidewalks soon
@@lordgoro They line the sidewalks with tents and no public bathroom the solid waste is in containers or jugs spreading germs and infections without running water either. Its mental issues going on here.
@@jeanP924 Without a toilet, youd be doing the exact same!
The homeless people don't want to change they want drugs.
@@reeses5212 That is not true for all homeless. Some for sure but most want to get clean and get their life together.
I grew up in the mountains of Colorado and lived in Denver as an adult. Until April 2021, I owned a condo just blocks from the camps shown in this video. I sold to an investor and bugged out.
I saw it coming and sold before it got to the point where people were afraid to buy. Not only did I see it coming, I sold for a good profit just in the knick of time. Looks like some people cannot sell their properties now.
The current average number of days a house for sale sits on the market in Denver is 4. The housing market is still on fire as it remains one of the most desirable cities to live in the US.
When is policker going to send law enforcement to the border to help with all the illegals like the other states are? Oh wait he won't gotta have them votes
Colorado does not border Mexico.
@@kunzang5136 BUT Biden is sending the Mexicans to Colorado untested for covid.

With empty warehouses around,they can create indoor places to live.
Doesn't Denver VOTE "'Blue"🙄😱?!!
This is all over America now. Not just here
That's what Denver gets for too many voters not paying attention to issues. In our part of Colorado we have paid attention.
CLOSE THE BORDER NOW !!!!
Nationwide !! We need a solid resolution !
VIGILANTE JUSTICE IS THE ONLY WAY TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM
EVERYONE NEEDS TO KEEP CHASING THEM AWAY!
CONSTANTLY !!!
KNOCK DOWN THEIR TENTS, TAKE THEIR SHIT THROUGH IT OUT, DO IT IN GROUPS LARGE GROUPS
CONSTANTLY!!!
THEY WILL LEAVE
This is intentional. Our government wants this
@@Bao171 Damn Straight ! 👍
Where are these people coming from? I've lived here almost 45 years and never saw this before.
Feed them and they will come
Pay them to be homeless. Great idea! That will absolutely get them off the streets.
Democrats believe our money is their money. Remove welfare recipients’ right to vote and that idea will disappear.
So what is your solution to the problem?
@@eelnoops5200 create homeless sites where they can situate themselves. The sites will be located away from schools, homes and businesses. Areas where nobody wants to be anyway. Like a red light district but for the homeless. They cannot bother anyone and nobody will hassle them.
Oh my God! That's insane.
Steak is 22 bucks a pound . It’s not getting better
Permit me to supply the script for the next few news stories:
* 6 months out - "It's obvious the current approach is not working."
* 12 months out - "It's obvious the current approach is not working."
* 18 months out - "It's obvious the current approach is not working."
* 24 months out - "It's obvious the current approach is not working."
* 30 months out - "It's obvious the current approach is not working."
* 36 months out - "It's obvious the current approach is not working."
* 42 months out - "It's obvious the current approach is not working."
* 48 months out - "It's obvious the current approach is not working."
... I know this, because it's the script from the last 48 months...well, actually 360 months at least.
If there were only a couple hundred homeless in each state this would be a problem of the individual. But we now have 500,000 people homeless in all the 50 state's. This is a policy problem with lack of low income housing, addiction treatment, mental health treatment and so many men unable to get jobs because of a minor criminal record. It's too big a number to just call people a bunch of bums. Something is wrong. Anyone can become homeless. I've worked as a counselor for 3 years with this population and there's only a collection of people who are homeless with problems.You can't lump everyone into one category.
Much of this is the result of not building apartments,and regular housing for at least four decades, even as millions of people were arriving in the country. Where were they supposed to go ?? Housing should have been built to keep up with them,but it was often bulldozed instead.
Yet our government encourages millions of illegal immigrants to come into the country while our homeless population explodes.
And both will get worse due to "policies" as you said.

Had a friend who worked with the homeless, and he quit becasue he said they DON'T want help. They choose to live this way. They turn down jobs offered, etc.
Seems weird our broke govt is now sending Ukraine 40 billion.

Let's pay people to be homeless! There's a Democrat idea if I ever heard one.
The problem is the real estate mkt and mostly the banks if u dont make a 6 figure income or have 2 or 3 jobs u cant afford them now rentals are as bad as mortgages and the credit bureaus are just as bad they prevent the low icome people from having a home or rented home wait until the eviction moratorium expires if u want real homelessness
holy sh*t! they are going to have there hands full. Didn't think that far ahead.
This is because the governor and mayor made it legal to urban camp 🏕 that’s what they call it
You need like a 700 credit score just to rent!!
The problem is drug addiction and mental illness
Wow you democrats have got Portland in Colorado now. Good job.
Nobody seems to understand that addicts who make up a very large majority of the homeless are simply not “housable” in the traditional sense. Just imagine an apartment building or housing community full of people on fentanyl, crack and meth. People nodding out, fighting, seeking something to steal to pay for their next high and giving bj’s around every corner. The movie, “Escape from New York” comes to mind. It is this thralling ignorance that is and will be responsible for this problem. Furthermore is that many of these municipalities thrive on state and federal homeless aid that does little more than employ a bunch of nonprofit workers who have little to no impact on the problem. As well, a person’s US civil rights will disallow many actions that can be seen to actually help. Even concentrating addicts in prepared camps will bring forth a new set of problems that will result in a higher police presence and more arrests which will be seen as unfair and undesirable to the addict.
If I left my human waste and garbage in my yard I would be arrested??? What is that doing to our water system ???? Free programs are not working because there are more homeless than ever.
This is all over North America, they need to simply buy out old hotels.
Who's they? The government? You realize the government doesn't produce anything to sell so it can pay for buying up all of the old hotels and motels. It's the working taxpayer that would foot the bill, again. So when all of the money goes to buying and remodeling all of these old hotels and motels to bring them up to code and livable per government standards don't start bitching about how bad the roads are or how long it takes to deal with the government when you need to. The money for those things is gone and being used to house these homeless parasites.
@@finnmccool22 Yea your right it does come out of the people's money as in tax. I live in Vancouver, all of a sudden around 2018 the homeless started taking over this park. On the other side is a peaceful neighborhood, even after a homeless person entered a woman's home and attacked her with a knife for no apparent reason. Maybe it was to be in jail during winter, lots of criminals do that. 2020 and the park is full of tents and trash. It's happening everywhere but mainly West coast cities. In America the west is warmer and in Canada, Vancouver BC is the only city you could survive during the winter so you get a large amount of the homeless migrating to the west. Finally the city kept there word and moved them all into a cozy hotel, not a cheap run down one but a decent one. I don't know how they are gonna maintain the health of the hotel cause most homeless aren't lazy but depressed so they wreck property fast and they love looking for junk to bring back home, which leads to bed bugs and cockroaches. Now home owners are very picky who they rent to. If you type in any city in North America with the term homeless, you will see tents all along a road or a area.
@@GateKeeper36 it's a big problem to be sure. We can't pay for unlimited social welfare issues and still expect roads and bridges to be maintained, having affordable public utilities and emergency services to be there when they are needed. There just isn't enough money. Having compassion and empathy for those less fortunate is an admirable trait to have, unfortunately we have to live in the real world as well and those of us who do work and pay taxes shouldn't be ostracized for not wanting to be taxed to hell and back to pay for everyone else's problems and bad choices. We can't eat our cake and have it too. Doesn't work that way.
When a black mayor is in charge things go down hill. That’s a fact.
Hey I saw that same guy hammering in let’s go Brandon and Kamala sign two years ago
Lower class/middle class. Now add one more homeless class!
Its coming America
Wow those orange plastic snow fence will sure show and stop them.
It may not stop them but will deter. They look for the most convenient places. Then they litter the area with trash, feces and needles. I know, I sold my property while investors were still hot on the trail of anyone selling in my neighborhood, which was just a few blocks from the 6th and Grant camp.
Looks like owners are having a hard time selling now. I saw it coming and sold just a few months before the way it is shown in this video.
It was still winter when I sold.
What's so hard about picking up your GARBAGE!!!! DISGUSTING!!!!
It would involve a four letter word….work
They can't survive through the winter. Better start heading to California.
I like your thinking!👍
Stop paying your taxes and property taxes you will start seeing changes
Send in the marines......cause these home owners our fed up......
Awesome !!! Gonna sell my house and live for FREE !!!
Everyone feels like a hero when they vote for this....and then it shows up at your door step and all of a sudden you're not so liberal any more. You reap what you sow.
Awake not woke 👍
Literally on their doorstep
@ValdieMan WTF are You talking about??
That opening picture is a pigsty
When I see a 900 foot house on .22 acre lot for sale for $400,000.00 and is called an affordable fixer upper!!!! This is going to get worse, makes me want to give up too!
Send them to Portland
Instead of coddling them, take the Japanese approach for in Japan there are no homeless. In Japan homeless are ostracized, humiliated, and punished for not contributing to society and now they have no homeless problem.
Seeing what has become of Denver is sad. Growing up there in the 1970's and 1980's was a delight. But an incident that happened to me in 2019 forced me to say goodbye. I was on my way home from work when a homeless person on the 16th St. Mall asked me for some money. I politely told him I didn't have any. He became very angry and slashed my arm with his pocketknife. I moved to Phoenix primarily because it's not that far away (14 hour drive). I drove up to Denver this past August and the homeless problem has gotten worse. Phoenix has a bad homeless problem too but the city will not let the homeless set up tents in front of your house like I saw in many parts of Denver. Homelessness is a complex problem with different causes but the politicians in Denver have added fuel to the fire.
Homeless people aren't going away no matter what is done because most have made this lifestyle choice. Most have come here from,other states. They're in Denver because people give them supplies, food, money, clothing. If all of that stopped, they wouldn't survive to crap all over sidewalks and ruin lawns. The biggest problem with this is that no one cares about the taxpayers who live in the area. They have jobs, property, families, educations, and pay big taxes to live in Denver. They just don't matter.
I have no concern for homeless people who choose this lifestyle, and wish they could be loaded up and sent to California. If we continue like we are, the problem will just get worse. Stop dropping off food and socks. Stop giving money. Just stop!
Your speaking facts that no one wants to hear.
Yeah when I am approached by the homeless for money I suggest they are hiring right over there ( pointing towards big box store ) Walmart Home Depot Menards wherever? They get mad ? How can you fix that ?
You are right . Don’t feed or enable them same goes for your local and state government. That’s how these problems started
Gavin Newsom is looking for these freedom lovers. Start busing them there.
If you come here illegally you'll have housing and everything else.
Substance addiction and mental illness are regarded as a moral weakness . In reality, they are medical conditions that need treatment, that might include institutionalization. That type of treatment is not easy to get. Additionally, many are not willing to seek help. They also don't want to stay in the shelters because they don't want to follow rules (no drugs, alcohol, fighting, staying up all night). It's hard to understand all the trash spread about. Compare it to hoarding. Which of course is also evidence of mental illness. These homeless camps attract a criminal element because of the drugs and the drinking. People get robbed and assaulted. I've been homeless myself but I've never lived like this. I've known and worked with homeless people and some of them are grateful and others just take advantage and don't want to change. It is a way of life.
Cities across the country are in shambles. Politicians need to step up. There is NO excuse for this.
these people dont want to change its hopeless
Dear Denver Residents: Quit whining - what's another few hundred dollars in property taxes and special assessments? You can handle it. You voted for it so I hope you enjoy it.
I'm a native of Colorado and horrified of what has happened. Too many people have moved here.
Hiking trails are now packed with a bunch of tech junkies taking photos and having to share their experience with the world!
Encouraging more people to pack the trails. So much for hiking to get away from the noise!
Many of the people's attitudes that move here suck.
Stupid boxy apartments being built that look like upscale housing projects.
Wish we could send most of these people home to solve the problems they created in their own states.
Recently saw a car with a California license plate, throw a full bag of trash out their car window. No respect.
They brought all their stupid driving habits. You cross the street and the transplants start moving before you're even out of the way.

@@ocean3638 I left Denver 5 years ago for the same reasons. After 22 years, it had changed too much, gotten too expensive and of course the Liberal politics. It's turned into every other Liberal state out there. Denver was wonderful back in the 70's and 80's and now it's overpriced, over run, and taken over by the pot heads of society. Very Sad
I have not visited downtown Denver in over 3 years and I live in Aurora. I will never go back because of this bullshit.
F of Parts A-F The homeless-shelters are powered and heated with butane and solar-panels, depending on how well the infrastructure held up, which are integrated into the construction of the *temporary* _homeless-shelters._ Which are a dry, clean place to sleep, and store their stuff. People from the city drive out to the homeless-communities to pick up food bank food; because that is where the food banks and free-ice machines are located.
P *2 of 4* Cities are spending millions of dollars to open and run homeless bed shelters; that the homeless reject due to the many restrictions and lack of security. _Pallet Shelter's_ two person _Shelter 64_ cost only $7,000 and provides a dignified, secure sleeping base of operation. So for only $201,000 [$120 tents] a city can establish and run a *Homeless Shelter Village* with 1000 shelters that can accommodate 2,000 people: 2 beds and belongings per 10'X10' tent.
P *1 of 4* Cities can eliminate homeless tent cities by replacing them with *homeless-communities* using _Pallet Shelter's_ existing *homeless shelter village components.* The _Community Room_ sells for $37,000 and serves as a shared laundry room, restaurant, *child daycare center,* and addiction services center. The _Bathroom_ cost $35,000 and the _Services Office_ costs $9,000. So for only $81,000 a city can establish a *homeless village.* The 10'X10' *Camping Cube Sport Pop Up Tent* costs only $120 and provides protection from the elements.

I’ve been applying for ssdi for 7yrs, waited four years for a housing voucher, and only get less than $300/month for food stamps….i don’t get how all homeless are automatically getting 800$/month?! How about let’s put people drug treatment centers who need it, and screen whose getting this. I’ve been homeless and a lot of homeless people are criminals are or drug addicts and shouldn’t be enabled w tax payer dollars, and given more than people who worked and are going through the system the right and honest way.
D just so we're clear......they scream accountability when they feel they've been done wrong...their not working and wont clean after themselves so by god hold them accountable!!!!!
and the anger gets pointed at the indigent. "Oh, why oh why is the world so bad now. We just can't figure it out. What.... NO THIS IS MINE."
P *4 of 4* The homeless can simply move the tents they are using now into the homeless-village and the RVs are assigned a parking space. *Or the **_Shelter 100,_** provided by FEMA,* is a $9,500 shelter that is climate controlled, built in one hour, is 100 sq. ft., and uses a folding bunk system to house up to four beds. *_Pallet Shelter's_* private sleeping cabins offer *security* and durability. Which addresses the concerns of the homeless who reject the restrictions of “bed-only” homeless-shelters; for only one night.
The travel channel brought me here 🫤
The homeless serve as a lesson to the tax payers. Work hard or this can be you.
And the lesson is being over taught.
Dealing with what exists .... set up sanitation etc. Pick up trash
Give them Greyhound tickets out of state, problem solved.
Can anyone afford to pay for: rent, utilities, food, auto insurance, and -gasoline- deatholine? If he makes only $11 an hour with no healthcare or dental benefits; yes or no?
Giving money to the homeless is like throwing money down the drain. It's better to build a high-rise building with as many small rooms as possible and communal restrooms, bathrooms, and a cafeteria.
Wow didn’t know Denver was in California
California is now in Denver!
the Rich get richer by exploiting low income workers, if the housing prices keep rising and people are kept at low income? no one can afford to live! this issue needs to be addressed because the system isnt working for people stuggling financially! it works for the people who already have money and are greedy to keep it pumping in while the people they exploit with low income struggle to survive.....Homelessness is the Governments doing! this mass amount of people need the right support but they are being treated like they have no value, what happened to Human rights?
Yes. It is everyone's problem. These are human beings.
How doesn't pick that go - 'the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer' ! 💀
What is wrong with this People. They have all time in the world to clean up all the trash they have around. Is all the homeless Dirty People. ??? I dont understand.
Looks like LA, its east to fix, do not feed them at shelter, and do not give them money on corner, they will leave.
P *3 of 4* Those with income pay rent which is 10% of their net income to the homeless-village for their 2 person _Shelter 64;_ and 20% of their net income as rent for the 4 person _Shelter 100._ Their rent money goes to pay for: *childcare for working parents,* one free meal per day; in the community-room.
The housing crisis is worldwide and greedy airbnb owners play their part. Most homeless didn't ask for this.My homeless family are now seriously ill because they rented all they could get, a mouldy rental. All 3 are now seriously ill, my daughter may have breast cancer because of the mould. The mould specialist recommended demolition, instead after a coat of paint, the death trap was sold. Do not blame the victims, blame the greedy landlords, agents, airbnb owners who will all sleep safe tonight.From Australia, in despair.

@@theorigin1891 Raleigh, NC. (East coast). Fast growing city. 500k people. We would never put up with this.
Not in Florida my guy. We don’t tolerate that bullshit.

its so funny how dealing with homelessness overall costs WAY more money than if you would just pay them full wayfare...
Yea... bring more Maryuanna ... oh what about the anti depressents which the psychiatrists were feeding these people since their child age.... nobody will talk about that..
Only getting worse
E of Parts A-E The homeless-shelters are powered and heated with butane and solar-panels, depending on how well the infrastructure held up, which are integrated into the construction of the *temporary* _homeless-shelters._ Which are a dry, clean place to sleep, and store their stuff. People from the city drive out to the homeless-communities to pick up food bank food; because that is where the food banks and free-ice machines are located.
*Section 3 of 3.* FEMA run homeless encampments share shower, laundry, toilet, cooking-facilities, stores, restaurants, dumpsters, and a post office where everyone has a POB; just like a large campground. No trash or crime problems for the cities and the working poor have a dry place to sleep and store their stuff. 24/7 every 20 minutes bus service connects the homeless encampment to the city. Where *subsidized for the homeless,* electric-cargo-bikes are provided by companies such as: _Wheels, Lime, Link, and Veo._ Food banks operate out of the homeless-communities where free ice is provided. Amen.
Its a Skid Row in every city
Ft. Morgan needs people
Why isnt Colorado ( govt) offering the homeless the opportunity to learn a new trade, build skills, via paid community service projects? Common sense, majority of homeless people want to work. They want to earn own keep.
They would like the opportunity to help themselves, and there is no, services like it
🤔
Because most don't want it , too many rules ,which include no drugs or alcohol
So we get fined if we drop a piece of trash, but look at this. People living in trash on the streets
