Today there’s supposed to be a major homeless encampment, clean up in Culver City underneath the 405 on Venice Boulevard do a tragic circumstance they were not able to clean. I had the possibility to interview a couple homeless people about their situation Both men were really friendly and talk to me about homelessness. - บันเทิง
We really need to reinstitute the State mental asylums. They need to be institutionalized, housed, fed and rehabilitated. It’s awful to live that way, dangerous and sad.
And we need to change the laws & force it on some.
If they are forced to go to a hospital many will get jobs and housing. They are taking the easy way out. They don't want to work
I probably wouldn’t go that route… you would be amazed at how quickly ppl recover when they have the ability to get clean, have good food and housing and are treated with compassion. A number of privately run, well-organized tiny house developments have done this and are very successful. It can be done well. There are so many commercial and office spa es now empty that could be converted into apt. style housing.
Of course, i would also like to see commercial real estate improve too… some of both would be good.
Instead, the governments there take taxpayer money meant to help these people and squander it on bureaucracy and hotel rooms.
One of the saddest things an American can ever see. Just speechless
California - Governor's office - claims the state has spent billions on the homeless. Clearly not a dollar for public housing. No apartments, just needles and boxes to collect needles, curbside sandwich delivery, alleged medical services, alleged legal services. All money for Democrat party comrades. Nothing for those left in tents.
YET, WE SEND $2 BILLION TO UKRAINE AND TRILLIONS TO EU ( EU HAS MEDICARE FOR ALL). THANKS TO THE USA TAXPAYERS
@@seymorefact4333 The vast majority of the aid that the US is giving to Ukraine is in materials, not cash.
@Risible1 LOL! You've been watching too much CNN, Fox, MSNBC, etc. The daughter of the Ukraine defense minister just bought a $7 million mansion in Paris! She's only 22! Zellensky wife went to Paris on a $800,000 shopping spree during the war. The Pentagon can't account can't account for billions of cash given to Ukraine. Ukraine voted the most corrupted country in the world since .... FOREVER! BUT, that's nothing compared to the billions congressmen is getting from American taxpayers via Ukraine money laundering.
@@seymorefact4333 try over $100 billion. But Biden's gotta keep that corruption under wraps.
The young man racking the garbage is a real hero in my book. He is trying so hard to make a difference. God bless is efforts. If I li ed there I would hire him in a minute.
These are your BEST type of videos GIV. Keep publishing from the “dark side” of LA. The world needs to see this. HOT TIP: include that first guy in your coming videos, people are definitely inspired by him. God bless from Norway.
Dark side of LA? This happens in every big city of the US and its one of the reasons i only stay in airbnbs and never at hotels while im there. I mean, you dont even see this in mexico or cuba! This is a national emergency and nothing is being done because reps and dems are too busy fighting each other (and their dumb followers too)
The guy raking the trash really seemed like a good guy that is battling alot mentally I pray he gets some good help you can tell he has a good heart just by the questions he was asking you.
so you're going to wish upon your magical wishing star that things improve. got it.
@@importonso while he does that what are you going to do since you’re doing so much more than he is ?? Explain your plan to end homelessness since you know everything??? Idk how him having empathy for them could have possibly triggered you ! Go to therapy weirdo
it's called drug addiction.
Mike. I love when you interview people on the street. Especially that guy. He seems cool and normal. I pray for them. Some people don’t want help. They just want to be left alone
He seems like a liar, I guarantee he has been offered housing, they just don't want any responsibility.
"Normal" is a setting on a washing machine.
And how many American lives did you ruin before you realized we just want to be left alone?
NO, he is a junky that denies services. Those are sores on his face that he has scratched and created but cannot feel from the meth/fentanyl.
The guy with the rake has INCREDIBLE potential, someone hire him,PLEASE!!!🙏😥🇺🇸
There's some indicators he likely has a drug problem.
I hope that the young man who was trying to clean up his area near the motorhome is able to find a better situation for himself soon. He seems to have a well balanced mindset.
A very cheap apartment in LA is $1100. Move in is first, last and deposit so like $2700. It's tough to get off the streets.
California should be ashamed for not taking care of this
I live in LA. We cant "take care of it" because judges constantly vote to uphold the rights of the homeless to live the way they want.
Not to mention these people come from all over, but it’s a California problem? Screw you hypocrite
@@bombaybeach208well I think if these homeless started setting up shop in these judges neighborhoods maybe they would change their tune
@@adamclark9004That would only get them a free one way bus ticket to another California city.
It's a problem in most states, maybe wake up
This guy that you interviewed deserves at least an appointment to see a mental specialist 😔 he keeps busy by sweeping everywhere. I give him credit for trying to keep the area clean 💯👍🏽 thanks Mike for the report. It’s a sad situation for all these people 😔
The people you see sweeping are on meth.
They aren't doing it to clean up.
He keeps busy sweeping 😔 this guy is like when you go to your lazy aunt or sister's house and pretends to act like they actually live cleaner then this...😢😢
And other help like a job, place to stay etc.
To be honest, THE most heartbreaking scenes are the pets who are subjected to share in the BS decisions made by their humans. 💔💯
Every street pet should be housed with those who can care for them. (I would fight to the death to protect my Dog and two Cats. (2A and trained!)
I was going to say the same things about making your pet homeless. I am a devoted animal lover and just hate to see this. Did you notice the German Shepherd? He didn’t even raise his head. He has given up. My heart hurts for the animals and children 😢😢😢
@@Cheekylory YES, that doggie was my first thought simply because, like children, they have no way out, of their own volition.
Same! I would have my Border Collie and two Male cats stay with friends until I figured it out and carry that cross on my own until I rose again. 🙏
It’s horrible. It bothers me to the core
Giv! Thank you for posting this video. My great aunt lives in Culver City and is in her 80's. We live in AZ and I have been concerned because she has been telling us about the homeless encampments nearby. This video helped me to understand the severity in her area. You are just a few blocks away from her place. This is such problem, from people being homeless and in emotional and physical pain, to the impact to the city. I very much appreciate your videos.
The guy in the Metallica shirt really deserves the mental health and shelter he’s seeking. He seems like a good compassionate person.
Wonderingbif Mike gave him at least 50 bucks...crickets..m
@@heatherziegenbein9866 I hope so
i am wondering if he might be a veteran....
@@heatherziegenbein9866 and I am sure that it will help them to draw attention to their misery... maybe someone will take pity after all... and maybe someone will find GOD
Everybody wants the system to do it but does nothing themselves, then crys about taxes.
GIV needs to do a road trip across America. He notices all kinds of things that Americans don’t. Maybe he could open people’s eyes to the amazing country we live in and all the problems we face both individually and collectively.
I live on Washington and Sawtelle and it’s even over here too. I feel so bad for them but I try not to cross under the 405 here because I’ve had bottles thrown at me. The other day, on Washington and National, a business woman or office worker was just minding her own business waiting to cross at the light when a homeless woman brutally attacked her from behind, clubbing her in the skull and pushing her into the street before continuing to assault her on the ground. I weaved around the traffic and threw my car into park w the hazards in the street the corner got out to help within a few seconds of the first punch. I honked loudly and shouted LEAVE HER THE F ALONE and jumped out to help. I got the homeless broads attention/distracted her enough to give the victim time to run into a fellow passerby woman/good samaritans car who helped her escape this madness. I was sure the lady was going to kick and damage my car but she then turned her violence and threats to me. Threatening my life, I called CCPD. I’m sure she will be released in 2 hours 😢
I would like to tell you how much I enjoy your videos! I live in Tennessee and I came to CA in January to visit the Hollywood area! I was so dissappointed. It breaks my heart to know people live this way! But whats more heartbreaking is that some of these ppl have really fallen on hardtTHe tiimes and this is how they have to live! Then all the millionaries living the way they do there and then some ppl live this way! The homeless ppl seem to be very humble! God Bless them!!! You are a kind person to give them kindness and encouragement!!!
Politicians who receive our taxes for salary be evaluated twice a year. We give them a grade based on how well they have done their job. If the average is 90 percent they get 90 percent of their salary. If we give them a D they get 60 percent of their salary. It is insane that we pay they taxes to be the servants of the people and make us live with this crap. They have their mansions. They have their private drivers, planes and security. They are not held accountable at all for doing their job.
This is so devastating to watch and witness. I can’t imagine being stuck here and trying to live. This is what we call a developed country ? Time for some new leadership !
Leadership? No one is owed a home. The only thing g Leadership should be doing is make it illegal. I have no problem housing them in prison. Atleast they'd have a roof over their head, a toilet to piss in and 3 meals a day.
Because the nanny state is so effective.
@@jakleo337 The corporate welfare state is more the problem - the government gives handouts to rich people and corporations all the time.
I am at a loss for words in this extremely sad situation. I am thankful to you GiV…for bringing light on this reality.
My heart is broken over what has happened to my old hood. I am now grateful I was choked in my home in 2019 and SMPD did nothing. I am happy I immigrated to the UK and for feeling so safe in my neighbourhood. Amen. 🇬🇧
Hope someone sees this video and gives that guy a job working with horses. Seems like a good soul. ❤
UB brainwashed to think homeless people are soul less, %99.9 homeless have good souls, 100% have bad addictions.
that man cleaning up is super well spoken, he is better explaining stuff than my HR
nothing like being clear headed and seeing the slow destruction of everyone around you. has to be hard.
Well done Mike……showing us the real California 👍✌️🇺🇸
The Guy in the Mettalica shirt seems a good guy. Hopefully he can turn his life around for the better.
It's so nice to see the updates and to see you treating these people with respect, I wouldn't except anything less from the GIV. Best of luck to them.
Sadly, these streets look just like streets in San José and Sacramento....same reasons....drugs, alcohol, mental illness, no work, no money, beggars from out of state, etc.
California is a magnet for this stuff. No brutal winters make it easier to survive. Billions and billions on the defense budget, but nothing for the citizens to get help. Just sad.
Tired of the no work excuse. There are more jobs than people right now.
I'm so sick of people saying it's mental illness. It's drug addiction and cost of living. Democrats are responsible for both of those.
@@adamclark9004The ones who say mental illness fail to mention the words drug induced before mental illness.
Drugs and Democrats
I agree @sunsensational, I hope this guy gets the help he needs as he cares about cleaning up around where he is staying. Hats off to you GIV for always giving us the news, keep it up!!!!
This was eye opening, I hope that maybe you gave those folks a little help that provided you with such great content. Keep doing what you are doing and showing the world what they need to see about the folks they drive past on a regular basis...
Thanks for keeping the east coast updated on the west coast, GIV. Love ya, buddy! ❤️✌🏻🇺🇸🇩🇪
*Where would you rather spend a winter, or even a summer? East Coast or West Coast? We have thousands of your refugees and should be sending you the bill.*
@@gordon3186 No need to be defensive - I'm sure everyone realizes that the State of California has immense beauty in many areas, and is a popular destination to visit for people around the globe. Some folks don't like the politics, and that's fine, they needn't come here or move here. :) Last I heard, Arizona, Texas, and Florida, all have big homeless problems, but you're right to point out that the weather here is preferable to most places, and fewer people in Cali treat them like vermin than in other states, along with Cali having more charities and social services than any other state... so it is natural to head West for help.
@@OrthodoxAtheist --- *You're inferring something i wasn't implying.*
*That **_'the State of California has immense beauty in many areas, and is a popular destination to visit for people around the globe'_** doesn't seem to be the consensus of many people posting here and elsewhere. It's cool. I don't like the politics going on where they're from either. It's just one reason I'm not living there. But I'm glad they're staying away. It's too crowded here anyway.*
@@OrthodoxAtheist we aren't having "big" problems in Arizona. Just need to protect water from the Colorado.
I don’t have an issue with homeless people or RV people.. I have an issue with trash, drugs, violence, theft, noise, fire, panhandling, and general lack of awareness.
The biggest issue is mental illness and addiction. But that’s not gonna be fixed on the street. They need to be in most cases forced into a mental institution…
I know it’s opening Pandora’s box of abuse. How many people will be called insane but are perfectly fine, they just made the wrong enemies. How hard will it be to get in and even harder out. How many will be permitted residents.
These are all questions no one wants to answer as we all have freedom of movement. Then the question of illegal immigrants.
Overall it’s past my pay scale to think about how this would work. All I know is they need to do something more then spend billions to none profits owned by family and friends that Benefit from it getting worse.
You don't have an issue with homeless or RV people ... who do you think is creating trash, drugs, violence, theft, noise, fire, panhandling, and general lack of awareness.
They need to build a huge MEGA PLEX like a, Tuff Shed Community in Nevada. Huge shaded areas covered by circus tent size pavilions. The State of residence of the applicants will pay 75% of the person upkeep. Then individual donations are to be sent to the Organization. All illegals found out, are to be housed for a maximum of 30 days, then flown to countries of origin, ONE WAY.
It's comes from being homeless. They not any different than you or me.. Just homeless.
Why not try giving them a dignified home first, then see if they are crazy or not?
Anyone who is forced to live on the streets will appear crazy, since the way they are treated is diabolical.
So sad to see this happening no one deserves this been homeless, that great guy sweeping up just telling the way it is👍 thanks GIV ❤
Thanks for caring GIV 😊❤ You are a good human being. I pray 4 the homeless 🙏
Being homeless is one thing being nasty is another
homelesspeople arent usually its the druggies... and come on, nobody wants to live this way... our country needs a mental health system worth a damn and universal healthcare. ffs its 2023!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@thatscool1550 Surveys of lots of homeless people (now "unhoused") in cities from Seattle to LA, from Portland to SF, show a lot of them don't want to conform to mainstream rules or basic social standards. IOW, a surprising high % of the homeless prefer a lifestyle that most people would judge as mean & miserable. Nothing kind, caring or compassionate about that either. Tolerating a Mad-Max environment is heartless. BTW, the city of SF for yrs has poured hundreds of millions of $ into dealing with their unhoused. Yet, SF is becoming more & more infamous as each day goes by
Yes ma’am IT IS.
@@dyllainous The city of Seattle, among others, several months ago did an assessment of its homeless & found a majority of them (something like over 60%) didn't want to adjust their lives to traditional shelter. A lot of that was due to people not wanting to follow rules or restrictions (ie, anti-drug, anti-booze, curfews).
@@gridley They should have used the hundreds of millions to house them.
The GIV is pretty gracious with people !! Especially the guy at 9:00. He is good people !! I just prayed for him.
I am from Malaysia. Years ago, I came to California for practical training at Northrop, and I admire the condition of your city. Unfortunately, it seems it's getting downgraded. Differently, my city, Kuala Lumpur, was contrasted and beautiful under good management.
Thanks for sharing. Kudos to the guy trying his best to clean up some.
Congrats on your store appearing in the background of one of the Venice Beach scenes in "Barbie."
*Sidewalks are for pedestrians to walk on, not vagrants to sleep on. Offer them a shelter to stay at but living on the sidewalks and streets shouldn't even be an option.*
they do but you cant be high or drunk and you have to abide by the rules, many dont want to do that.
it is a literal nightmare to have the tents near you. I had it in a beach town and everything bad you hear is true. Rats are still around a year later. look at the garbage. can you imagine the rats amongst that build up. thanks, fentanyl. good job.
Bidens the problem..opened our borders so the drugs are here big time
Very sad. I don’t even know if my brother is still alive. He used to be homeless on Venice Beach. He would walk around all day picking up aluminum and plastic recyclable bottles and cans and exchange them for money. He was a hard worker but a hard core alcoholic. He was a University of Santa Clara graduate. I think about him every day. He’s 66 years old.
Love your content my man keep doing what you do 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I really feel for them it hurts to see people living in those conditions thank you Mike for showing everyone around the world how horrible things are not just California but all over.
Most of these people are not "unfortunate" there's frequent fires, drugs, stolen property, shootings. One time somebody parked the car and walked up to shoot.
My town in Florida has homeless but its mostly in the woods. As I drive around I don't see this.
@@richardmorris7063 Florida is hell
The blue state plauge.
What diversity - tolerance looks like
This has to be THE most sobering video I've seen on the GIV channel. What a terrible human tragedy this is. No person should have to live this way. Thank you Mike for all your efforts in documenting these horrible human conditions. I pray for these people. And for everyone here watching --- always be thankful for what you have.
They DON'T HAVE TO LIVE LIKE this.. California has so many social services that they won't take advantage of. They need to change the local laws period..
And clean this mess up! This is what liberalism does! They are PAYING people to live like THIS!
@@lorrie5881 I completely agree! Liberalism exists in part to create an underclass of citizens who are wholly dependent on a government subsidized (i.e., taxpayer funded) safety net. I've seen this just about everywhere else in the world where statist/collectivist governments exist, and now we're witnessing the same effect more profusely here in the USA.
👏As always, another stellar GIV media presentation. Thank you Mike, stay safe always!🙏👍
Mike looked stressed out by the end of this video. That is hard stuff to document. 😢
Appreciate you bringing us reality Mike, as sad as it is.
Until class action suits are filed from home owners for the city of LA not enforcing camping laws this will never end
Yup...Rich people also hate lawsuits...
I love how you treat these people with deserved respect without being condescending towards them.
That's the dam problem treating those scumbags with respect is BS there useless human beings I have relatives that are like n F💩💩K them they all want hand outs not help they feel entitled dam POS worthless excuses for a humans round them up take to the desert let them figure out
Once again, most need to be in an institution so they can be safe, and keep others safe.
It's a "human right" not to be exposed to disease and plague, too.
The things that lead to homelessness will make anyone appear insane - most people can last a week or two living the homeless lifestyle before they crack, if that.
Just give 'em enough money to feed and house themselves, and then see if they still seem crazy. Some really are crazy, but many are just having normal human reactions to being traumatized and treated like garbage.
The young man is pretty well spoken. Too bad no one is listening to him about the mental illness in the homeless community
The liberals closed the impatient mental hospitals decades ago. We need them back. Some people will never take their meds and take care of themselves. This is not freedom for them.
And what are you doing to help? You want the government to do it but then complain about taxes
@@davek1833 The people that love taxes closed them down and left it to the police. Then they defunded the police and left it to rot. How about vote for someone else?
@@caymanchristopher7014 with all due respect, Gov Reagan did in California. Not sure he was a liberal...
@@larrynusbaum9193 also with all due respect, they were closed in 1965 and outlawed after a landmark case by the ACLU. Reagan signed the bill that reversed Carter’s attempt to increase funding through the government. I am a conservative but would definitely be for institutions for chronically mental i’ll individuals unable to care for themselves.
Thank you for sharing and your APPRECIATION to your subscribers
I stayed in Culver City when I first moved to LA. It was so different then. The homeless were only in Santa Monica. So sad to see this mess.
Yeah!! So happy to see another video FROM THE GIV!
Thanks Mike for keeping us updated on this horrendous issue of homeless camps like this. This is a failure of the leadership there in the State and certain cities in it that allow this to continue and propagate. Disgusting to even see that in parts of America.
Yeah and the richest country at that. It is a shame to see these. Many of them are veterans and that is sad !!!!
It's a failure of the system.
@@Kthomasritchie There is no system at all !!!!
Many of the bureaucrats in my city of Los Angeles and our state of California make quite a nice salary and bonuses when there are drug addicts and homeless like this that stay on the streets.
Thank you GIV for putting those people on TH-cam. This situation needs to be addressed properly. 😢
Thanks for sharing this brother!
The lack of mental health care is staggering in America! 😢 So sad.
The real issue's are alcohol, drugs, plain laziness, and complete lack of personal responsibility, not mental illness. Although "mental illness" are the buzz words their "leadership" wants you to believe. Living off taxpayer's money, getting money for food, etc., and being allowed to commit crimes, is just enabling them. They create filth, expect someone else to clean it up, then create more. They've also learned how to act, becoming talking head's, just like the media, and that it's "showtime" any time someone point's a camera at them. If BS was a horse, the guy GIV was talking to, would be Secretariet.
Drugs
Like every 10 minutes pop out another homeless and are welcome. California agenda for more homeless and mental ill making sure California unaffordable to ton of Californians.
Yes, California ton of homeless became sinners as even being needy create Karma.
In California where the non-profit organizations LAHSA pocket ton of money and making more money and became a drug society housing druggies not family or vets.
In additional to, California Homeless Healthcare organization giving away free drugs including meth pipe for the homeless to become drug dealers selling those drug to citizens while traveling to other States and back since the mental ill and homeless get free government bus pass and metrolink access.
All of this drugs and non-profit organizations pay for by California tax payers and there voting right to help the homeless and mental ill in California.
It pure evil and demon as these drugs make people addicted abusive insane unable to help and save themselves but rejected by society and more and more druggies are spreading like rapid fire.
The worst yet to come more and more Migrants coming over to California to spread the drugs furture back to there States and all.
He could take that 200 and get a po box to have a home address. Get a gym membership to have a place to shower. Then go get a job. Stack up and go from there. Zero will
get some clothes from a thrift store, that is where I got my clothes when I was on welfare living in a bedroom for 150 dollars a month and would work temporary jobs really got alot of help from my friends to whe it came to food. food stamps were only 80 dollars at the time many moons ago I always ran out abut half way through the month but friends helped me out.
Great video. You’ve got chutzpah to visit this area, and muster the courage to speak with people (despite the danger). Hoping this video will help those individuals. The ones that spoke to you, most would be happy to offer them a respectable job and help them.
I live in Florida now. I use to live in L.A. about 14 years ago. Even then, the homeless problem was really bad. I lived at Fairfax/San Vicente, about 6 miles from where this video was shot. It amazes me how bad it's gotten in L.A. I always wanted to go back and visit L.A., but I see all the videos about the homeless. The L.A. I knew and liked doesn't exist anymore.
Mike, your videos are so good. I feel for the homeless but I have two homes not that far from there. I had to leave L.A. years ago for work and haven't returned. I hope they don't start and encampment near my real estate. Lastly, hope your mom is recovered.
Love you GIV- a true patriot who loves this country more than most people born and raised here. You worked your ass off and took a gamble on yourself- never gave up on yourself like these people on the streets.
@@heatherziegenbein9866 It wouldn't be appropriate or financially feasible for him to do that IMO.
I used to visit a girlfriend there every weekend, about 10 yrs ago. This was completely unimaginable back then, it was an upscale, clean neighborhood, none of this existed then.
Now it is filthy.
I was impressed that young guy was actually concerned about the lady he mentioned that has maggots from her wounds and helped by trying to clean up the area. Thank you for keeping us posted about these situations Mike🙏🏽
I love you GiV!!
Keep doing what you're doing!
Thank you from the UK
Being assertive to help someone get medical care is a very caring and respectful thing to do❤
DID YOU OR DID YOU NOT GIVE THAT GUY EVEN A DIME???? I AM GUESSING YOU DID NOT!!! AND YOU WILL LOSE MANY FOLLOWERS IF YOU DIDNT!!!! TELL US THE TRUTH!!!!!!!!!
That guy in the purple shirt is awesome. The guy raking up, too.
Thank you G.I.V ...excellent content ❤
Thank you
HI GIV your the best youtuber!!!, keep up the awesome work. I enjoy all of your content.
I watch homeless videos every week .I guess bc I don't ever want to forget.Ive been homeless a half dozen times .It took everything I have ,You have to move to an area that you can prosper, survive .& not on a street, camping in parks is way to go .That led to me finding others to get pd to clean parks that was 2003 , I now own my own trailer, 1 acre .That's what they need .
You were fortunate to possess both the desire and drive to work your way out of homelessness and change your life for the better. Sadly, many others are are unable to escape the vicious effects of substance abuse and/or mental disorders (or both). These people need meaningful assistance to get off drugs and better access to mental and/or physical health services. Then maybe they'll regain their hope for a better tomorrow and take concrete steps to change their life.
Thanks!
I can't imagine what the owners of these homes are feeling walking out being faced with this in front of their driveways just shocking 😅 they need to enforce rules where these people can set up tents
forme if this was my home I woudl want to move, not because i lack compassion but because they would be watching everything Ido and I have no idea what they have planned, rape? stealing anddamaging my property? attacking me out of frustration that I don t give thema handout everytime I se them? no being homeless is not a excuse to be dirty little creeps who think they have a right to just harass or steal or attack someone. and surly dont want them pooping in my yard, so I understand homelessness is sad but not disresepcting others. no excuse for that.
They need dumpsters.
It SUCKS bigtime. We're coming up on 10 years fighting the city, starting with the lousy former district councilman bonin, to close this encampment down. The city is claiming this drug dump s not negatively impacting our neighborhood. We're dealing with corruption and liars.
@@rosesmith6208 All of the above. But, some of us have lived our whole lives here. How fair is it that we have to leave and not the pack of losers who don't respect anything and prey on the homeowners.
GiV Thanks for shedding some light on what most people turn a blind eye to.
BTW - the "rubber stamped" pentagon budget is $826.45 billion... BILLION!
Thank you greatly GIV for your videos sharing what life is currently like for our homeless humans who deserve so much more than just being tossed like trash to the side! Is is important to keep showing what is happening in the homeless community as NONE of the major media news channels even discuss this issue anymore. Keep the focus on this issue as you are definitely helping to hopefully generate action from those in power who could actually take action to help these folks!!
My empathy meter is at “I don’t give a shit” about these people. The destruction they cause is insane.
Absolutely agree 100%, it's funny when I seen this comment because I said something similar the other day, I said "My sympathy and empathy tanks are empty"!!!
Same here. Got plenty of anger and disgust, though.
You know, the #1 cause of homelessness for women in the US is domestic violence. What outstanding human beings you are to have no empathy for them. If you believe in Jesus, you might as well stop because it's not doing you any good with Him.
YOU! ARE! THE! CAUSE!
@@thespacecowboy420 Care to throw an explanation behind that, I'd love to hear your demented analogy!!!
I lived in that neighborhood from 2003 to 2014. My daughter when to Charnock elementary. Truly sad to see what happened to that neighborhood.
they wont use the trash cans or toilets, but they can find where all the drugs are.
Drugs hijack the receptors in the brain, causing dependence and addiction. After a while, nothing else matters. It's a severe disorder - my dad's addicted to prescriptive opioids. Stupid doctor has never had the guts to taper him off. My dad probably threatened him with all sorts of self-harm ideations...
Thank you for sharing it's so sad.
I was born here and it was a beautiful City full of MGM Studio History and my Granny's Health Food Juice Bar. Looking at these pictures it breaks my heart. We need to address this re-open up the Mental Hospitals again.
We need mental health hospitals!
There was supposed to be a powerball winner that bought a ticket from the Las Palmita mini mart, near skid row. Heard this on the radio here in Chicago. Sending peace and light.
Thanks for risking your safety to bring these issues to light. I don't think I would live anywhere in LA even if I was paid to stay there. Crime, homelessness, dirt, and filth are everywhere. Stay safe my man.
You can't even afford it
I grew up in West LA. Upper middle class neighborhood. It didn't used to be like this.
Lmao facts. Fuck that shitholem I moved to OC and have never looked back. Then again, I'm from Georgia so 🤷♂️
@@Hansen710 its all he's capable of
Hi, I like when you interview people on the street. I wish you would have asked a few more in-depth questions like what he majored in college in, what field does he want to go into and does he have family that he can live with. I'm genuinely curious about some of the back stories of these people and some of the obstacles facing the ones who seem to be normal and intelligent. Also, the lady behind him was quite willing to talk and you didn't really ask her any questions. I would have liked to have heard from her too! In future I'd love to see do some more in-depth interviews with the street people.
The guy is the purple top and sunglasses...seems very intelligent. He could definitely go find a job in another part of the US. 👍
Hi Mike I'm new to your channel I watch your videos and been watching all your past videos I find them interesting and informative and I love Los Angeles it's my favorite city in the world thank you for doing a great job 🇺🇸
Wow, I live two blocks away,
Thx for the update German:-))
In your opinion, how bad is it in Culver City? Is this video a true representation of your beautiful city?
@@Kthomasritchie Yes this is the most true presentation i can tell you from living here near Venice in. Culver City and that German never takes it over the top.. You go to Beverly Hills, you will see few of these homeless encampments, santa monica Yes and so on.. but on side note German doesnt like to report on these things(not much) but when they become a nuisance he will gladly do it.
Yea it is really this bad and i feel the homeless follow suit with the COPS (LAPD) if they dont respond to things of course these Homeless people will do their thing and have a ball -:)
I hope that fella and his gal with the dog are able to find a better situation for themselves soon. Also love their dog friend too.
thank you
😢 THEIR NEVER GONNA FIX THAT MESS ! IT'S BEEN BAD & GETTING WORSE EVERY DAY
Man, I was there in 85-86 & Culver City was an idyllic neighborhood. They let this thing get out of control & now its a big big problem. Tough love...
Culver city Is better than anything in Florida
June-1985 I came through!
Thank you, Mike.
When I was a kid in school. We had to collect money for the kids in Ethiopië.
Now I am 46 years old. And my own kid was doing a dancemarathon at his school also to collect money for the children in Ethiopië.
Its almost 35 years later.
My point is it will not help and only get worse. ALSO with all those homeless people.
No one can change this.
There are millions and millions and millions of people who live like this.
It is sad.😢
i have done that before as long as there is a crisis someone is making money off of it if theywerent they would require them to work if they are health and put in jail to get them off teh drugs and nutrtion then put to work, you better believe it. someone is making money off of this homelessness problem not sure who but they are and this is why it never gets better.
The total destruction of the areas they camp is unreal, no respect when drugs takeover your life.
Drugs and mental illness
I lived in that area in the 90s. The homeless situation was nowhere near this bad in those days. What a shame.
I agree - SM Venice CC always had sketchy areas day or night but not submerged
everywhere ....way worse than 20+ yrs ago
The Valley's not any better while local state liar politicians vote for me to end homelessness so full of shit
Appreciate your videos, Mike.
Red biohazard bin is for used needles, they’re popping up all over CA.
Love you GIV! From Michigan!
So needed to see this. Feeling sorry for myself today!
Mike GIV This makes me sooo sad. California needs to do something about this.
These videos are important. This is one of the few sources of genuine information. This isn’t available anywhere else. I just wish there was someone that would do this for Kensington, Philadelphia.
There’s a few, ‘Morals over Money’ is the only one that comes to mind..
Streets of Kensington....TH-cam chanel and there's others
The Philly Captain has crazy Kensington/Philly area videos.
I have no words.Wish all the best to this homeless people,I hope they will back on the track very soon💪🔥🌌
They like it. Sorry
