They Actually Lived In This…

This is the second video of the PLS Bend prep day where we removed 37 vehicles from the woods to prepare for our volunteer cleanup event.
This RV was abandoned in the national forest after the people who were living in it finally decided to move on. As you can see there was a fire in the kitchen area, but the crazy thing is that after talking to some of the other people living out there, apparently these people kept living in it well after the fire.
But either way it was time for it to go, so I took my @NRCIndustries rollback out to tow it away.
The beauty of the NRC truck is its ability to heavy tow, but still haul a vehicle on the bed as well, making this project way more efficient.

You have to understand these are open air drug markets rather than homeless camps. Oregon has a HUGE issue all over the state with what Casey is showing. Very liberal policies with all drugs are legal in Oregon, a $1000 stipend each month from the State and prosecutors that simply turn their heads to the rapid downfall of a once great State.

[@BobbieJeanM]

@@randyking1715 I guess this is a good example of reaping what they have sown. Unfortunately, I bet the legislators don’t use the public lands so they aren’t directly affected by the mess. Wonder what would happen if they had to do the work and use their own money to clean up these places.

[@outlawbillionairez9780]

@@BobbieJeanM our legislators live in the district they represent. They are not by and large the wealthy of the State. Corporations and billionaires pay nothing in taxes. What little they do pay is a tax write off. And the decriminalization of small amounts of hard drugs have proven to be massively effective. We have a moratorium on building prisons and jails since 2012. That money saved has been used for drug programs and housing. Per Capita, we're a lower income State. We are making better use of our little money than most other states. And Central Oregon is not a liberal county by any stretch.

[@williamerdman3349]

Casey I know it is a losing battle to keep the forest clean, but I really appreciate how hard you and your friends work at cleaning it up.

They must be filled with so much hate for nature and society.

Fentanyl isn't going to magically absorb into you and throw your body into an overdose like in movies and TV shows.

Sad to see the Rockwood destroyed along with the lives of those living out there. I understand poor (I've lived in an RV) but trashy I will never understand - and I am grateful that I don't. Nice work on the clean-up.

I think the secret to being able to stay is keeping it clean. We have a gentleman with his dog that’s lived in a parking lot in our small town for 7 years now. He sweeps the parking lot everyday. No one bothers him. He doesn’t cause any problems.

I live in between Seattle and Tacoma and our town has been trashed by the druggies. Especially down by the river on county land where the city cant touch them. Very frustrating to live around. Motorhomes , piles of trash , stolen cars and crowds of tweakers.

Most of the Big cities around the USA are trashed now, by druggies and w O k E policies.

Woah! That RV “graveyard” looks like an ODOT red cinder pile. And it’d be perfect for a machine gun range! Or maybe they can open a used RV lot there and put up signs like “only been abandoned twice!”

We see a lot of bullet casings left to pollute in wilderness as well. Improved behavior could apply to most nature visitors

[@echohunter4199]

@@marcpikas2859 Buahahaha! Great joke! Somehow I’m pretty sure an abandoned vehicle leaking oil everywhere on the ground and food wrappings that attract animals does more destruction than brass casings that slowly erode away. And most shooters collect their brass to reload it like I do because ammunition isn’t cheap, but you knew all this, right?

The problem is two fold one homeless that just want a place to call home and two the amount of drug addicts that are homeless can’t keep anything halfway decent cause of there problem. We need a huge push in drug rehab forced drug rehab and then more things to assure they are not on drugs like drug testing and we need places for people to go that end up homeless to get back on there feet especially if they are not addicts they should get preferred treatment and help.

Years ago, my National Guard Engineer unit did a lot of work around China Hat. It is a beautiful area, and it never looked like that when we were there. It saddens me to see it devolve like this. Thanks for cleaning it up.

Same deal up here in Washington, especially once you start getting into the heart of the Cascades far away from the major cities. I've personally seen entire mountains gated off - literally thousands of miles worth of trails, hundreds of shooting pits and campgrounds, endless miles of fishing access - all closed down with one fell swoop, purely because of tweakers living out of trailers, burning them down and spreading their trash everywhere (typically after they torch their stolen car as well).

[@davidwoermansr]

Sad part is the government is starting to sell BLM land to developers to clear it of everything to build housing and manufacturing plants so they don't have to pay people to take care of it

[@bobbobobob5100]

i know you have no say. they need to arrest these slobs while they're still there and make them clean it up. people need to be held accountable! and not just there, everywhere!

[@Th3Riddick]

Right because arresting and charging a homeless person with no job or income to risk will fix the problem, but will instead incarcerate them with free tax paid room and board, then eventually set free with no support system to do it all over again...... Should they have these people help clean up, but they need help getting back on their feet too to help end the cycle.

[@mitchweber7868]

​@@Th3Riddick it's not helping anyone in this situation because what does it cost to tow an RV like that somewhere like a thousand bucks isn't it? That's why no one wants to pay to have those big ass things towed around because the tow bill is outrageous. If you are going to have a vehicle like that you need to keep it running honestly. Them living out There is a different story altogether

[@bobbobobob5100]

so is it your plan to let them keep doing it while you and i keep cleaning up after them and footing the bill while they steal from everyone in the area?? we had this problem near my house we had the cops come there and made them help clean their mess with us township employee's. it cost the taxpayers over $10,000 to clean it up. they were given a choice to live in a motel room with municpable welfare and every one turned it down! the majorty of them choose to live that way! theres a difference of being down on your luck and being a total pig!

[@DavidLeslie65]

I'm pretty sure that the residents in the town will forgive you for the pillow considering the mess that's getting cleaned up. These clean up videos really get me angry. I grew up in Oregon and spent a lot of time camping, hunting, and fishing and we always left the area cleaner then it was when we got there even when we were teenagers in the early 80s. I can't believe what ass holes are doing to these areas. I've had to clean up areas here in northern Arizona after squatters move in. Just be careful and keep up the good work.

[@davidwoermansr]

The only way to stop it has unfortunately happened to so many beautiful areas and trails a fence goes up around it and it's closed to the public or the government can't justify the expense and it's sold in lots to land developers everything gets bulldozed and housing or manufacturing plants go up

people can be homeless without trashing the spot they live in, we are homeless living in a camper and are space doesn't look like that

[@jimmyclayton5916]

I don't think that this is normal everyday people who are down on there luck,in are case we got old and didn't prepare for retirement so the cost of living out grew are income and the next thing we found ourselves living in a camper in a rv park, but to be fare it's not a little camper it's a 35ft fifthwheel with3 slides, the people who are doing this are people with drug problems

[@OpieDogie]

That is NASTY!!! Now they’ll close down the forrest so no one can go out there.

[@Dave-ei7kk]

If they can’t/won’t police it then it’s better to shut it down than leave it open as an attractive nuisance. Casey and his crew have respect for the environment but it seems like the people and their elected representatives in eastern Oregon really don’t give a sh1$. Rural Americans have been dumping their trash in gullies and rivers for decades just to avoid paying a trash hauler.
