Tent city pops up near San Francisco City Hall

[@Prisonmate]

Free money, free drugs, free rent for private apartments. No responsibilities. That is how you get rid of homelessness.

[@kennymichaelalanya7134]

Your Sarcasm level is 100. Noice.

[@User-xp8nj]

Go do something about it

[@RandomRabbit007]

Sounds like a good life to me!! LOL ... All the benefits but NONE of the sacrifice or work!! Sign me up plz!!

[@WaterBottleBlues10127]

I’m tired of these free loaders. These people come from all over the country to California to get free stuff meanwhile taxpayers are paying for everything.

[@kenjones6046]

Yes, they need to leave California if they dislike anti encampments policy. They want to stay because police will not arrest them for doing drugs on public streets

[@User-xp8nj]

Go do something about it

[@stuckndafield9369]

but keep voting newsome 😂😂😂 this is country of free you should be able to put a tent anywere its free coubtry

[@Joegreen-r1i]

The research shows that they are home grown 80 to 85% of them at least. So stop with that tired trope. But yes California needs to do something to deal with the problem. Throwing money in it isn't fixing it.

[@TheRemixOldSchoolMusic]

Regarding HOMELESS: Most people R not homeless becuz rent is 2 high. It might play a part but it's not the main reason. They R homeless becuz: 1. They never took their school serious as a youth. 2. Wanted 2 party like a rock star & got addicted to alcohol & drugs 3. Went to jail and couldn't cope in jail without being on Psych drugs in order to COPE. Once release they now addicted self inflicted 4 Had too many kid's for a welfare check 5. Loved the street life & fast living 6.Chose an easy major in college that wasn't in demand in the real world. 7. Were stubborn & hard headed & never wanted 2 listen. 8 Thought it was cool being some kind of rebel that refused 2 comform 2 society. 9.Their life priorities were azzbackwards 10. Wanted 2 B a drug dealer 11. Thought going to jail was COOL. 12.Wanted STREET CREDIBILITY now these suckers are living in TENTS! These R just a few examples

[@aaronsnumbuh2]

The first dude came from Alaska? So is this why homelessness here never gets better? More people just keep coming until we run out of resources?

[@Westcoastguy]

Yep. The whole world knows how progressive SF is and how they give away everything for free in the name of "empathy". Even if it continues to destroy the drug abuser. Unbelievable how backwards SF is.

[@celebrityrog]

There are two options for people from Alaska. 1. A one way flight home that takes off from SFO with said passenger but never lands with said passenger. OR 2. A ferry departs from San Francisco with said passenger but arrives without said passenger. Either way the Pacific gains more fish food and we lose a tax liability mooch.

[@heyaisdabomb]

This is why I have always said, homelessness is a FEDERAL issue. People will always debate with me other this. But it needs to be dealt with in the communities where people become homeless, funded by the fed since local municipalities can't afford to address it. Divide and conquer the problem. Now, we have a few cities that deal with most of the homeless. Everyone will say cities should just be tough on them. It doesn't really solve the problem either, because if everyone took this approach, they have no where to go, nothing gets better. I'm not saying people shouldn't go to jail if they refuse help, 100% they should. The fed needs to create and fund a program that cities are to carry out, offer communal living tiny homes, rehab, or jail. No exceptions. They can decide.

[@thaluna3555]

If these people don't want to enter rehab, send them to jail...........enough is enough 💯

[@User-xp8nj]

Go do something about it

[@762-m9b]

The people did. They voted for TRUMP.

[@Terrakinetic]

They told us. It's not about the homeless at this point, it's about throwing the advocates in prison instead. That's the next step to solving this crisis.

[@stuckndafield9369]

nah free country they want u to work to pay taxes for waht military to keep giving to rich nope

[@heyaisdabomb]

@@Terrakinetic If I entice a riot, I will go to jail. Encouraging others to commit crimes warrants jail. This should be common sense.

[@masonpuu8597]

San Fransicko is a lost cause at this point

[@abelincoln9026]

Huh?

[@madjanetramerez2383]

it’s really not

[@jv-lk7bc]

Amerikkka is a lost cause at this point. The Constitution has already been neutralized by the SCOTUS. democracy and the rule of law ends on Jan 20, 2025

[@El_oh7199]

If you move to a new city without a job or a place to stay you only have yourself to blame.

[@RandomRabbit007]

But "I WANNA LIVE IN CALIFORNIA !!" Isn't my God-given right to live wherever I want, even if I cant afford it ??!!!

[@jv-lk7bc]

Yes, refugees are always to blame, aren't they?

[@AllergicToLies]

1:57 was the lady surprised that she was asked to leave? Make an effort to earn money and provide yourself with housing. ❤

[@kenjones6046]

I can guarantee this poet scholar and others have active warrant out for their arrest and that is why she hide her face so law enforcement can not recognize her. There are a lot of them on our streets in SF

[@jv-lk7bc]

when the rents tripple and wages don't, effort no longer matters.

[@seadweller386]

Ya, it’s pretty visible to everyone all right.

[@kenjones6046]

If California for homeless are such a hard life and difficult , why so many homeless keeps coming to SF and LA? They are free to leave California and residents who work and pay taxes will not miss them. Get out of California if you do not like anti- encampment policy

[@kennymichaelalanya7134]

Didn't the Anti encampment bill/prop just pass? So why are they there? The police aren't doing their jobs. Smh

[@rickyfox67]

and go where to the other states that made homelessness illegal

[@captng]

San Francisco's liberal progressive policies and defund the police have been catastrophic and caused much suffering

[@abelincoln9026]

Huh?

[@jv-lk7bc]

greedy landlords have been catastrophic and caused much suffering. true, San Francisco's polices, liberal and otherwise, failed to stop them.

[@captng]

@jv-lk7bc failed? Liberal policies have enabled landlords to raise prices.. small landlords have difficulty affording to get in compliance..point is every new liberal housing policy will increase the rent this to offset cost of compliance.

[@CheeseLayong]

Where's the 20+ billion dollars?

[@plantsplantz2116]

Not anymore with this post pandemic revenue model economy......productive regular law abiding tax paying working class ppl are poor and being squeezed.......not enuff money coming in now to trickle down to them now...they needa get productive if wanna survive...😅😅😅😢

[@sf9er-p5f]

Aak Pelosi and newsome

[@pizzacat69]

send those advocates to detroit

[@bgrierofficial]

The city of SF would be better off providing an alternative further inland, where land is cheap, and the cost of living is lower. Either that, or Newsom should open up his lawn and mansion to take these folks in.

[@ssparrrkyy]

Homeless vs. illegal migrants. Who gets the help first?

[@kennymichaelalanya7134]

The latter. It's a no brainer.

[@jv-lk7bc]

illegal migrants are the ones building the housing.

[@Dwn2Race]

Democrat Utopia….

[@kindredmalise6633]

Hate crime. Cause if you want drugs, you ask a homeless person. Especially if it's a large camp. You want your kids to have an easy access to drugs?

[@jv-lk7bc]

srsly?

[@gigginbig3]

Everyone protesting sweeps should immediately be charged and sentenced to housing these people and banned from virtue signaling

[@DakkaSkintabII]

SO SWEEP THESE "GHETTO POETS"

[@bboysmith]

Not responsible for that dude’s life choices.

[@shahar7]

I don't have money to just do drugs and live in Alaska, let's move to the most expensive city and try to use empathy

[@emvvehicles_8]

Well that’s great, now SFFD will have to staff the Hazmat Truck at nearby station 36 to help with the sudden spike of calls.

[@kennymichaelalanya7134]

These people don't even work. Smh

[@jasonsmith1143]

beautiful with that big christmas tree in front of city hall

[@IndependentObserver-eb9pv]

They want a say on how our taxes are paid to them... right...

[@Joshp786]

Homeless is visible.

[@bboysmith]

Those the help to organize. I wonder where they get their funding.

[@maxdout564]

Affordable housing exists just not in San Francisco. Leave.

[@jv-lk7bc]

greedy azzholes ruined our city and emptied half the buildings. Leave.

[@Lora-G]

Get clean or go to jail ? Good luck

[@SoSpicy-Gmac]

Wow the judgement on these comments.

[@RandomRabbit007]

Welcome to reality, people will judge you for your actions .... As they should. Being pathetic should come with shame and guilt

[@SoSpicy-Gmac]

@ thx you for your enlightenment

[@SoloBolo-f4o]

Weak leadership 😂

[@Westcoastguy]

As usual with SF.

[@kennymichaelalanya7134]

They're not even taxpayers FFS. They don't WORK!

[@robertortiz6749]

Is it a protest?

[@sf9er-p5f]

Everything is called a protest now

[@SuperJK-Man]

How many of the homeless came from other places than SF in the last 10 years? Many were homeless from other states that doesn’t provide handouts. SF has, which why many homeless comes to SF.

[@_ac_7649]

What a dump

[@josan7277]

I didn’t hear any one of them come up with a solution! They’re wasting funds from this organization to put on this spectacle!
