- Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill Wednesday that prohibits counties from letting homeless people sleep or set up camps on public property. Counties would be able to create areas for homeless people to camp for year if they get approval from the state’s Department of Children and Families.

Well stop.letting big corporations come into fl and take over low and fixed income places
Torn down to build 390k condo
Happened to my friends grandma
She had 30 days to get out along with 250 ppl
Some of which are now homeless over age 75
Disgusting
I'm sure the homeless just forgot that they have a nice bed to sleep on every night and that's why they wanted to sleep on the streets. Silly them
@superboristhespider, well whose fault is it that they're homeless, everyone else's fault? Most ppl have family members they can turn to if they showed responsibility. There were probably steps that could have been taken to avoid being out on the street.
Where I’m at, they have places to stay and they chose not to, that should be illegal when you have the option to sleep not on private property. Every state should do this and you would watch homeless actually have to stay at shelters or get their lives together and this is coming from someone who literally knows dozens of homeless because I live in CA where it is everywhere but it is everywhere because of alcohol and drug use.
@@James_Edward59 If you had ever actually been in this position or talked to someone who has youd know that shelters are often very dangerous. No one would choose to sleep on concrete over a warm bed without a good reason to
Where the hell else are they supposed to sleep
Wait so we are gonna just brush over the fact that homelessness is up 12%!!!!
Wtf
Fjb
They don't care. NIMBY
They can go 5 star hotel accommodations if they go to New York.
New York.
@@Lisa-my5sy easy now....wouldnt want to state obvious facts about the Build Back Better agenda.
why don't he make a law that they must make cheap housing & give them jobs ? you know kicking the problem down the road fixes nothing
all the homeless should vote him out
Close the border…. FJB
Good but I have a simple question. Is it cheaper to give these people a couple hundred bucks a month to allow them to rent a room, get some work clothes a bus pass etc.. than it is to provide everything for them in prison? If you give them nothing they will steal and go to prison where the state will not spend $2400 per year supporting them but around $40,000 a year supporting them. Just a little simple math for all the tyrants out there.
It is a sad day when you have to raise a financial benefit of helping a down and out American to get something done.
I have an idea. How about civil servants and representatives not being allowed a salary amount that is above the lowest earner in their area? So if there are homeless in your area as a civil servant, your income is 0 until homelessness is solved. Can we make that law? Great, thank you.
This would unfortunately lead to more corruption and bribes.
Evil politicians, most of them.
So they putting them “out of public view”..I hope they are being offered whatever help they need.
We all know they aren't
I’m not and it’s getting worse, I lost my job for refusing to get vaccinated & now I’m homeless. But now, I guess I can be arrested for being homeless which is insane. I’m a political prisoner now.
Tf is going on in FL? Is this the priority. Rather than address homelessness, they are going to criminalize it?
We need a law like that in the Philadelphia Kensington area. It's literally a sh!t show all along the strip with POOP 💩 and needles everywhere.
Then you better have a plan to put them someplace else.
@@Silence_Duder_Gooder yep
Hey Ronnie? Whats the root cause?
Do you know what the average homeowner pays for insurance in Florida?
Good luck finding competitive insurance in FL!!
Making family trees without forks is fine though.
That'll solve the poverty problem. That a boy, Ron.
Have you been to San Francisco lately? Children cannot even walk to school because of the homeless.
If they are veterans, there should be an exception
If they are veterans they should be given homes. Why would we send money to Ukraine or any country when we can’t take care of our own.
There was a vet in a wheelchair homeless near my friends house in FL
She tried to get him help
Two months no.place for him
She called welfare too
So she called the news
He's now in a boarding house with bed bugs
@@FloridaManChowder yes, they joined the US military and went into combat. You sound like the kind of person who would have the VA shut down and has zero understanding of PTSD.
@@GBTWC I agree, but not all veterans want homes. Many do the Jack Reacher thing, wandering, living off the grid.
No "exceptions" should be needed, because they are _all_ American citizens. My buddy Tony, a Vietnam Veteran, who died on the streets of Berkeley, California, about a decade ago, would agree with me on this point.
Instead of making housing more affordable, they did this instead. This is pathetic.
Wow really Florida pathetic then fix them somewhere to have shelters n safe place to get back on feet just cause homeless don't make the illegal or worthless I was n that spot not to long ago n I worked wasn't lazy yet just cuz couldn't afford it all at once to get into housing n I got judged sup to b of humanity n help not condemn woe woe woe Florida step up n do right n rightoues
They will hide in the underbrush out of sight.
😂THERE IS THOUSANDS IN THE FLORIDA WOODS!!!!
@@BRAAD2024 I am sure there are.
Let them camp and sleep outside the governors mansion
In its majestic equality, the law forbids rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, beg in the streets and steal loaves of bread.
Anatoly France
Put a ban so that the homeless can only sleep or set up tents on public places between 11pm to 7am only. That way it's humane so that they have somewhere to sleep but also not an eyesore for the public. Win-win for everyone.
Now _that_ is at least a better idea.
And it's also why they would laugh in your face. These people want strife; they desire division; and they hope for derision between citizens. It's a lot easier to control a populace if they're fighting against one another and not focusing on _their_ criminality.
@@Silence_Duder_GooderWell said n u are exactly right
Can we do the same in Cali? Please 🙏
This is CRAZY. This very wealthy man is so out of touch with REALITY. So, what is the solution u have for this HUGE PROBLEM, Mr. Governor?? Out of sight, out of mind is what it sounds like. Undocumented people can come here n get any help needed? But it's basicly about to be illegal to be homeless or even temporarily unhoused in America??? This isn't right by any means.
DeSantis is notevenclose tobeing "wealthy", and every large or middle-sized city inFL has a tax-payer funded homeless shelter. Not DeSantis'fault if the vagrants don't want to follow the rules there.
@@commonsense6967shut your mouth. There are many people who are homeless who work and pay taxes. Please don't flaunt your ignorance.
Wuss n boots just can't help himself. Karma will come for you too.
Wake up
I love Governor Desantis!
Homeless shouldn't be sleeping in front of businesses or public places preventing ppl from going into the business or walking the on the streets. Homeless shouldn't be allowed to poop and urinate in the streets. That's disgusting, unhygienic and fowl. I would venture to say most homeless are drug addicts who are that way because of their own choice. Normal residents and business owners shouldn't have to view their choice. Get them off of public places into their own community or rehab.
where would you like them to go then? you think they choose to sleep outside and eat out of dumpsters?
Shelters, rehabs how about all of these homeless ngo,s wtf are they doing? Too busy helping illegal aliens breach our borders
You’re not pissed at Biden homelessness is up 12%
But one governor tries to protect his hardworking citizens and he’s the problem right?
Gtfo and grow a brain
If you’re on drugs go get help nobody should be forced to deal with your bad choices
@@LH-hh4rryep , we're treated like useless eaters. A lot of us are disabled on SSI / SSDI which is not enough $ to rent anything or survive a month. Lots of families with kids . Stupid thing is , scraping for a hotel rm.is way more $ than rent.
When homelessness stops being profitable for NGOs and the federal government fires individuals in charge of solving the problem. Without homeless individuals can you imagine the job losses in the federal government? Why solve issues that keep them employed? Same goes for drug addiction, the border crisis and the Veterans administration....non profits and charity organizations make bank off the misery of American citizens. The federal government would rather promote war in Ukraine or the middle east.
Their own community? HAHA! Do you even realize how stupid you sound?
So umm where are they supposed to sleep? I haven’t seen new shelters go up anywhere.
So let me guess, just arrest them all and clog up the jails even more, cause more cost on taxpayers all without actually taking care of the root problem. Genius idea Desantes
Volunteer your house.
At the end of the video, the reporter said that in that exact area, the homeless people right there were directed to a shelter just up the street. They weren't arrested, but sent to a resource that is better than sleeping on the concrete. It seems like the law has embedded within it the expectation that communities have adequate sheltering, water, and mental health opportunities. Law enforcement is going to be expected to direct people to those resources.
@@joemisek😂😂😂
@@joemisek, um, have you ever _been_ to a shelter? I have. And I'm telling you, it's much better to live outdoors than it is to survive in one of _those_ places. Most of the time, the inmates run the asylum, with the employees of the place ripping off the residents for the little they have left.
And that's the _good_ shelters.
@@Silence_Duder_Gooderof course it’s easier to be a bum.
This state is terrible and DeSantis i pray does not get reelected what are all these families supposed to do
better call inverse cramer investing in correctional
Good
Thank you bidden4china. Homeless on the rise. Inflation out of control, food prices rising daily, Trump 2024!
homelessness has been an issue forever duh
Yes but not rising food costs on a daily and rape all your food assistance from you with kids and single moms with NO raise in wages! @@LH-hh4rr
@@LH-hh4rr, sure, but it's only getting worse, and all we do is send money abroad.
Directed them to a shelter right up the street? Well, if the space and resources are there, and this law presumes those resources are available to the influx they might get... then yeah I suppose Florida is well within its right to say that you don't have the right to call a patch of a public street your own.
But you should take a gander at those shelters. Everyone who has never lived inside one should go and live there for a week. Check it out. See how it works. Because most of the time, it's the inmates running the asylum. People get high and start fights. Stuff gets stolen by residents and some of the employees who are tasked with storing people's belongings.
And that's at the _good_ shelters.
Sleep in their mansions.
A man of God!!
I would've ended that with ????????? Wuss n boots needs to feel his "manhood" by abusing the less fortunate. Ask what would JESUS do??
We have that in our state too, I used to live in Cali, and lion what it’s become now, tourist don’t go there anymore, and I’d be damm to have that in front of my custom built home that I take pride in and mow and make sure there’s no weeds etc, we don’t have that crap here, we got lots of laws keeping it out too
Yeah, let's just illegalize human beings who are down on their luck.
Did you learn nothing from the Great Depression?
Ron's tough on homeless people. Already started 2028 campaign?
Alan Hudson Florida they just raided a campsite and took all the homeless to jail in a big van and those are some of my friends I might not be on the street no more but they're my homies I was so angry 💢😡
Biden's America...
DeSantis's Florida
@@kjames337yeah desantis is responsible for the 12% NATIONAL increase in homelessness since last year ? Yeah ok
Typical dumb-ass liberal dem
@@kjames337 Yep! The states in which everyone who is smart and can afford it is moving! That Desantis' Florida!
@@kjames337, this is Bipartisan's America.
Where will we go?
Well,
Since 70+% of all Homelessness in America is rooted in Drug addiction,
And 30+% of all arrests are drug-related,
I suggest Kalifornia, Oregon or Washington State.
They don’t care if you use drugs or do crime,
Some of them will even pay you to ‘not use drugs’, ’wink-wink’.
But democrats had no plan lol
I'm glad I live in Florida!
I'm glad you do too.
@@PhokenKuul at least we don't have fentanyl zombies doing drugs right in front of children passing by, randomly mugging people, for that this law is worth it.
Desantis is one of the few helping us Texans out at the border. 👍
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🎬
Detroit needs the same law
Good for Ron Desantis.
No place to sleep? Go sleep in a boat going to Haiti.😮 Or Cuba.
You first.
We support you Desantis!
No we dont!
