I used to be homeless, and the worst thing to do is gathering stuff, hoarding stuff, you're in a position where you just shouldn't have stuff where it overwhelms you. Till you find a way out of homelessness, stay light, stay mobile, don't get weighed down with stuff.

[@Hollowpoint691]

Absolutely. We have a homeless encampment by the side the road in a very small community. People aren't completely heartless, but over the two years that it's been in there, more and more trash, totalled cars and car parts. It looks like a disaster. It's even started expanding onto the main roadway. Everyone I have talked to agrees if the site was cleaner and organgized they could accept it.

[@underthetornado]

Good advice

[@Pabz2030]

Even when you have a "permanent" home you stick to the same philosophy.

[@rainy.d7404]

I agree with you and was thinking the same thing...i was going to comment then i saw yours and here i am replying. When you are living the nomadic lifestyle regardless of wether you were forced to or it is your choice, it makes sense to travel light for your own benefit. Apart from a matress and containers/bags to store clothes and food and toiletries you really shouldnt have big items that bog you down. Living in a tent (with no car): you need to be able to pack up your tent and have your sleeping bag and a big backpack to store your items. Living in a car: things should not be spilling out of your car...you should only keep what you can put away in your car. Same with RV; dont have stuff strewn all over the outside of your RV. If you keep your living area tidy and free of stuff and litter then you shouldnt have to deal with these sweeps throwing out your belongings. I have no idea why nomads would need half the stuff i saw there. I pray these people get housed afcourse but i also want them to think about how they can improve this situation here.

[@rainy.d7404]

I dont understand why you need to hoard so much stuff when you are homeless. It's not a criticism , just saying it is more work to pack everything with the sweeps happening regularly.

[@ositagordita8550]

If you park & don't keep all of your possessions INSIDE of the vehicle, there is going to be a huge problem. There are plenty of people who live full time in there RVs who don't stay in one place & when they do, they try to blend in with the surroundings, they don't turn the area outside into a trash heap. May God bless them in their journey.

I was mobile homeless for year’s and I will say that when you live in filth, it’s going to attract the police when you have to cover all your shit with tarps it’s going to attract the police that stuff needs to be in good working order and registered and the police will not bother you. I feel for her situation but it doesn’t seem like she’s at a place where she can assume the responsibility of an RV she doesn’t have a tow vehicle or any way to move it around so maybe another living situation would be more appropriate

[@notanomad9320]

I believe the cities do these sweeps because of trash that keeps piling up and eventually becomes a health issue. The homeless seem to be blaming others dropping off trash but from what I've seen is, they collect too much junk in the 1st place, one example I see often is how many bike parts do you really need? Who knows, maybe their collecting it for scrap but to make it worthwhile, you need a decent truck to haul it to the scrap yard.

It's sad to see this stuff happening. It's scary to know it's becoming more common. I live in Canada and homeless population has gone up . I come from a middle class home now I live in low income housing and I see a lot of people dying from OD . I think we have such a drug problem as well as homeless problem because people are falling through the cracks. The stigma is soul strong. To survive and come out thriving it's hard to hear how people talk about the homeless. I used a woman's shelter twice. For long periods. I wouldn't of be where I am today if it wasn't for the shelter. But also it's a double edge knife. Because shelters started black listing people. Addicts particularly. Even though it's illegal to discriminate in a shelter and make a list of people who aren't allowed in

[@tigadirt]

A lack of physical buildings to occupy isn't the problem. There's already more empty buildings than homeless people. They need to either simply be left alone if they're not causing damage to anything or one and or just time to get back on their feet so to speak. It's very true that a significant if not greater portion of homeless people are no different than any other "normal" hard working person who's just going through an overwhelming and often traumatic sequence of events in their life that they couldn't handle or keep up with. And with no support of family or friends, or perhaps stubborn pride that kept them from asking in the first place, sent them down a spiral of unstable living conditions that becomes very hard to pull up out of. It's a surprisingly complicated problem. Free living spaces do give some measure of help and i do reckon most people would be trying to get a job and than move out into their own home when they can. But the complexity of human psyche and structure of society make what may feel like a simple fix much less black and white than we want it to be.

@@BelleOfAmherst thanks. I was homeless myself for a couple years when i was younger and unfortunately it's one of those things where it can be next to impossible for people who haven't walked a mile in their shoes to understand. A lot of the people who say the classic "just get off your butt and get a job" aren't necessarily terrible people, they just only know what they know from their own life experiences and have luckily never had to try to put their life back together from such a tattered state. And to be honest what I've seen and experienced with solving the problem is not so much about a particular person, as you mentioned hopefully seeing this, being able to do something about it. But rather what helped me and millions more was the kindness of average and good hearted folk interacting with down and out people in their community's. As being isolated from the community was usually a significant factor in how they ended up there in the first place. You seem like genuinely gold hearted person. Don't be afraid of interacting with the homeless to whatever point you feel safe and comfortable and maybe you will help someone when they need (and wanted) to get back on their feet. ❤

While I do understand and even empathize a little with you saying you have to work hard for that few and it feels unfair to have to see homeless people, I hope you at least try to understand these people have no place to go. Bass and Park are going a PR dance around homelessness. LA has always been a shits how, and if we don’t take tangible actions now to get people the housing and support they need, homeless numbers are going to continue to get worse.

It's like once local law enforcement found out I was homeless they tried even harder to pull me.over and fine me. I became homeless in June of last year. I have accumulated tickets in Sheffield, Florence, city and county and st Florian. Any money I make after my wage garnishments goes to the county for these ridiculous tickets. They'll never let us homeless get back up. That's why our homeless population is well over 300 people just in Florence Alabama. They offer nothing. A meal a few days a week. I can't even look for a job because I have no gas. Being homeless can be so distressing! Thanks for my vent. Sorry. I love your channel and I appreciate you bringing awareness to us. I just want to feel like a person again. ❤

Imagine if all the resources used to destroy their possessions was used to pay for housing instead.

[@watchmenstudios]

Help and support them we should! More should be done to house and help these people now! But make no mistake. Take note........ This is just the beginning of society's collapse. These people's situations will look tame in a few years to much of America not being able to afford food or housing for their family. Prep up hard...and fast...The total failure of things is almost here. Are you ready?

If I had a Trillion Dollars, no wait that is the annual budget military industrial complex. Wake up America! I have never met Mark, but I'm certain we went to different schools together. "Jesus" would be proud Mark if there ever was one? Thank you for your works!

[@trazeepion]

This breaks my heart. I'm currently living in my car and have been homeless about 7 months now. I just lost my job Wednesday. When your homeless without a job things are a lot darker. I'm trying to find another one but it doesn't happen overnight unfortunately. I work and pay taxes like everyone else. Not all homeless are unemployed and collecting any benefits. I don't even get food stamps and I ay child support for 2 children. Once I get a job again anyways. Prayers for all these poor homeless. I hope you can better yourself eventually. My state doesnr offer much for help to the homeless. Our only shelter locally is shut down for water damage. It's just sad. If you dont have friends or family to rely on for support and you become homeless then I romose I understand. That's my exact position. The other noght when a tornado touched down in muscle shoals Alabama all I could do was cower in my car and pray. It was terrifying and made me realize my insignificance. I'm sorry to all fellow homeless that are forced to start over repeatedly. I justnwish thibgs were easier. That getting help was easier to access. If I weren't starving myself I'd help u swear. I can't even leave my parking spot at Walmart because I have no gas. I wish they had more opportunities for homeless to make same day pay. I wish.....

[@canadianwarrior8535]

And you are the reason Walmart is banning overnight parking. It was always intended for a place to have a sleep and be on your way, IT IS NOT A HOME OR CAMPGROUND! Thanks for ruining it for all of us!

[@tomtee4442]

I've stayed at Walmart overnight they are way to noisy. You don't want to look like you live in your vehicle. Anywhere you stay you want to blend in and not stay at a place each night. If your in a vehicle their are a lot of places to park.

[@trazeepion]

Lol okay

The government needs to be sued for destroying peoples lives

[@trude_in_adelaide]

The city would be better putting the funding used for these sweeps, into resources into housing these people instead of repeatedly paying police and workers to clear the area.

I have never seen so much false information!!!

[@georgemulligan8958]

How about you state the facts. There is no incentive to end the homelessness. Billions are spent on salaries and benefits for people that work in the system

[@InvisiblePeople]

Fact is those billions are housing more people than ever before, however, because people cannot afford rent, more are ending up homeless. For every $100 increase in median rent, homelessness increases 9%.

What mammals live amongst their own waste?

[@crxdelsolsir]

They already provided themselves with some form of shelter that the Government didn't. The least they could do is just have a regular communal container for refuse collection and latrines. If they did that, the area would no doubt be less filthy and also take alot longer too. Reducing costs of clean up and unsightliness. It comes down to lack of morals, ethics and just decision making based on money (costs/profit).

[@shootmalones]

they play victim but all that shit they have is stolen. no sympathy tbh

[@edmorse3529]

Where is Newsom???? Where are the mayors and or city council??????? How many unoccupied city or county buildings are there??? Maybe start using them!! Instead of newsom spending millions of taxpayers money for 1200 tiny houses!

[@SkywalkerPMs]

It is not a waste of taxpayer money to do these sweeps. As TAXPAYERS part of our money is expected to go to services that keep the city clean, keep the roads driveable, and sidewalks passable. The vehicles parked on yhe side of the roads for years, with garbage all around, are NOT homes. They are eyesores.

[@veronicaharwick9013]

Playa Del Ray is an area which is unaffordable for the vast majority of U.S. citizens. Why so much stuff? I think people would be most successful if they looked for smaller more economically friendly locations (within their means), removed drugs & alcohol from their lives (there are many sources available), & then they could seek gainful employment. Those individuals who are in need of mental, social, emotional, & physical help should receive it. Also, communities need to supply affordable housing in their respective areas to align with the pay received from a normal 40 hr. work week. Enough. 😔

I can imagine the kinds of things people do to the homeless camps. Idk how they live with themselves. 😥😥

[@MB1BUMPER]

No compassion ?Homeless literally are camping in communities,in front of business,in front of peoples homes lowering the value of peoples homes because of it.There are places where you don’t get bothered ,so go camp there.Not in city limits.I was homeless and pulled my butt out of the gutter and never went back-they can too.But most homeless won’t go look for work.

so much for off-grid affordable housing, that was keeping folks alive.
