Libraries continue to deal with homeless complaints

At the main library downtown, sheriffs have done a good job of clearing the homeless outside, but inside, the same problems persist.

[@Deutschtown]

Why can't homeless people just simply pick up after themselves? Being homeless doesn't mean you need to be a pig.

[@LoggyWD]

There is usually a reason why they are homeless. Most of them are drug addicts, mental patients or petty thieves. They don't have anywhere to go since all petty crimes like thieving have been decriminalized and most mental hospitals have been shut down thanks to pharmaceutical companies lobbying.

[@egold9081]

Because someone else will do it for them

[@jocelynpaul4246]

I agree homeless people should not be kicked out in the rain but I also agree just because they're homeless that doesn't mean they have the right to do whatever they want to libraries is a place you go to read books and use computers and get educated not to have nap time

[@carolbenson6524]

Disgusting that our families have to deal with homeless filfth in the restrooms of libraries. They should not be in our libraries!

[@jayrider2726]

Everyone is sick and tired of it.

[@lousyacrobat]

this is unacceptable. why is this allowed? create a separate place for them. not the public library!

[@0bservationist]

Just keep voting democrat, and allowing unmitigated illegal immigration. Thats gonna solve the problem

[@egold9081]

It’s whites dummy

[@0bservationist]

E Gold its california dummy

[@Luvlymarshmellow666]

What does that have to do with THIS exact vid? All homeless are illegal immigrants?

[@chinoman7234]

So my taxes pay for people who don’t pay taxes. Also, make it uncomfortable for tax payers to use the facility that their taxes pay for. Way to go government

[@mapdich9949]

We should focus on helping the homeless instead of ostracizing them. If we see a stray dog on the street, we feed it, give it comfort, and shelter it. If we can't do the same thing to our own kind atleast don't make it worst for them. Let's them stay and rest in the library.

[@JohnAranita]

Mr. Morales IS moral!!

[@lawrencecarter8072]

Homeless fine,,drugs and violence is not

[@lourawls-nl9ch]

I feel so sorry for parents bringing their children to the library only to find it overrun with drug addicts, mentally ill people and flat out criminals.

[@Nvisibleman]

Sjout out to Nicole for keeping it a 💯! She just said what we all thought.

[@nonasuomy6371]

as long as they're using the facilities as they should be and not causing a distruption i dont see why there should be a problem. whether we like it our not remember homeless people are apart of our community. There's variety of reasons why ppl are homeless so intead of shunning them & branding them as lazy make an effort to support them to get back on their feet. many ppl are a paycheck or less away from being homeless themselves as it is so the lack of empathy is surprising

[@slkjess1206]

Yea, there are a lot of nice homeless people. However, a couple of days ago, I was using the restroom when a large homeless man was literally screaming at me saying a bunch of nonsense. The scary thing is that what if he had a knife, or a gun. How about other children that use the library? What if this guy snaps and kills somebody, anybody?

[@LindaMerchant-bq2hp]

Theyre people too its all our community

[@biggy7875]

Most of them dont follow the rules get angry if u say anything don’t wash up and expect everyone to smell them all day they leave the restrooms smelling awful and are litter bugs! I work at a library so i know what im saying

[@jecagutierrez5084]

I work in a homeless shelter, and before you judge any homeless person in the entire world, know their story first and get to know them, do not generalize homeless as drug user or alcoholic or someone who will commit a crime. The girl who was disturb by odor should be thankful she can shower everyday in her home anytime she want if you have nothing good to say about them then just shut up.

[@danielaguirre3435]

Homeless people stink

[@andresuston7692]

People who aren't homeless stink also, that's even more disturbing.

[@lucianakueker6027]

I agree people are mean and cruel we should take Jesus example and show kindness to EVERYONE weather your homeless or not.

[@SK-tz8hk]

FMS- the issue at hand isn’t homelessness per se, it’s about the library. I agree that no one group should be generalized. However, if that girl who happened to comment on the odor wanted to sit and work at a table that was occupied by a homeless person sleeping, doesn’t she have a legitimate complaint?

Butane is a bastard gas

[@infinitequest0424]

The homeless are where the Words of creation are stored and shared.

[@jayrider2726]

They sleep and bathe in bathrooms in library's and Starbucks.

[@jeanyork6163]

홈리스들이도서실에온다구요? 좋은일입니다 자 이제 도서실 한편에 샤워살과 물건을 간단하게 받아주는 락커도 만들고 도서실 공공기구를 사용하기전 간단히 씻고 또 옷도 갈어입을수 았도록 옷도 좀 기증받아서 놓아두고 그리고 공공시설을 사용할수있게 카드를 만들어서 신분증도 만들고 직업 재활 프로그램도 적극 도입하여 그들이 자랍할수 있게 홈리스가 도서실에 온다는것은 그래도 어느정도 희망이 보이니 정부에서도 적극적으로 도움의 손길을 펼치도록 홈리스가 많이 오는 도서실은 특히 복지위원을 퍄견하여 여러가지 도움의 손길을 주도록 일반인과 함깨 공유하는 사설인만큼 먼저 홈리스인것을 알면 새워하고 깨끗한옷을 입고 물건들을 만지도록 도서살에 홈리스들을 위한 샤워시설 그리고 잠잘수있고 쉴수 있는 공간 등 을 마련하는것이 급선무입니다

[@christalehnen9203]

I agree this report is disrespectful, name-calling "Sand Man" hanging this on all the homeless when it is not clear who is making the mess. Blame someone for human waste around the library - what else are homeless to do? The signs are rude and meant to exclude. This is a library free, access, for all??

[@0bservationist]

christa lehnen sand man makes sense, the bastard is bringing sand into the library, just so he can make the facilities dirty? And you are worried that it is insensitive to give him a nickname? Gtfo here

[@dannyd1098]

Free-access doesn't mean you get to trash the place

[@SK-tz8hk]

Christa- the report is not disrespectful. It was informative. Let’s say there are 10 tables to work on. 7 are occupied by people working, and the other 3 are occupied by homeless people sleeping (as the report clearly stated occurs). Doesn’t the next person who walks in have a legit reason to complain? The tables are intended to be worked on, not slept on, and now members of the public aren’t able to work.

[@RaeLo]

Nicole Daoang is so rude. I'm more offended by her attitude than another human being using the PUBLIC library.

[@WhatsUpWithSheila]

What's rude about telling the truth... when they starting Hoggin the tables and abusing the bathrooms at Starbucks.. we'll see what's said then.

[@hayaglamazonluxe]

Nicole kept it real, many people are turned off by them. The US has a lot of amenities for the homeless - there is no reason for them to be hanging out there as if it's a shelter. Not all of them are there to read.

[@lucianakueker6027]

@John Anderson you are a heartless asshole Not all homeless people are homeless due to their own fault. In California rents are so high a d wages are stagnant and just one incident like work accidents having to pay a hospital bill and falling behind just one bit can land a 1person homeless. I have seen reports on the subject of homelessness and there are plenty of people who still have a job and live in their car and are homeless through no fault of their own. So shut the fuck up and have 100 sits. Jerkoff.🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

[@jayrider2726]

@@WhatsUpWithSheila it drive me nuts when 10 of them come in to Starbucks and hog up the place to sleep in the chair with their cups they had for weeks on end demanding refills for .50 cent's. Then they go in the bathroom for hours leaving it trashed and smelling like old clothes and feet. Starbucks will go out of business one day if they don't stop this bullshit. My friends and I al go to another coffee establishment now and they don't put up with that bullshit. In Starbucks you can't even move around because of the huge camping gear these idiot's bring into the store. I had to vent because enough is enough.
