    Your voice can help end homelessness. If we do not fix the affordable housing crisis, homelessness will continue to get worse. Click here invisiblepeople.tv/getinvolved to tweet, email, call, or Facebook your federal and state legislators to tell them ending homelessness and creating more affordable housing is a priority to you.

      I get what your saying but not really, He just had a family that didn't really care about him much, it doesn't give you the right to unleash your anger on everybody else though. But I'm gonna pray that God gives him the strength to survive out there and that someone can come and help him to get off the streets. Because it's just not safe, a lot of people treat homeless people pretty harsh, and rob their stuff.
      Lord, we intercede for those that do not have shelter of their own. Lord, bless them with protection from the elements, bless them to have sufficiency of food and clothing, bless them with joy and peace of the mind. We know you are able to protect your people and supply our every need. give him the strength to get off the streets, so he can have a house, wife, children and a Job to feed his family. In your Name Jesus Christ, I pray, Amen.

      We are ALL a product of our environment. We cannot be "fake" bc the way we act and respond is a learned behavior to survive - much like his response when he sleeps.
      I think that his view of helping others, the earth, and the future for humanity is commendable but is based on his unfortunate experiences. The beaches are his home which is why he mentioned that he wants to make efforts to clean it. Trash because that's what he sees being his main source of nourishment and housing, well I think that's obvious.
      You judge people for being "fake" but again, this is all a coping mechanism or a survival method. Even though someone may have lots of money, it doesn't mean they have a perfect happy life. We are all dealing with something - some more than others. You could learn something from this homeless man: be a little less judgmental.

      I don’t say this to be insensitive towards him. But he’s gotta get himself off the street. Nobody is going to do it for him. Take a shit job somewhere, start saving the money and use every single resource that the closest homeless shelter offers. It would take a few months. But it’s possible. In 6 months time he may still be in poverty but he wouldn’t have to be homeless.

      Oregon has great systems in place for the homeless, yet theyre all still homeless. Drugs, alcohol, etc play a major role in the outcome of a homeless persons life.
      You could literally hand this guy 5 grand and a place to live, guaranteed he would go through the money quickly and still have nothing in life.
      It is sad but true. I grew up in Oregon, there are lots of very genuinely nice people who are homeless. Many of them choose the lifestyle, or will never successfully get out of it because of drugs and alcohol. Rehab doesn't work, really what they need is for someone to actually take care of them like a child, and give them zero money. My father was like this, he never could make it on his own, but if he had someone in the family take him in and manage all his money, he did fine.

      These pathways are permanent & cause individuals to "grow up" into stunted adults. You may be correct in stating some cannot ge off the street, you may be correct in your experience with Oregon homeless resources but your judgement wreaks through the screen.

      that's a terrible generalization to make; homeless men do get abused and sexually trafficked, but its society's preconceived notions about their character and “male tendencies” that make it difficult to ever come out, have their experiences known or acknowledged, and later get the help they need. You're forgetting that homeless men, like this gentleman (who broke his nose trying to learn to fight and look out for himself on the street), deal with physical confrontations solely because, as men, they have to prove their "strength" and "endurance" (even though, muscle power is the last thing that should be on their mind). And while satistically it is true that homeless women deal disproportionately with cases of sexual abuse living on the street, by saying that homeless men are their female counterpart's only molesters and abusers you further perpetuate the stereotype that men are always, or need to be, the "strongest" when they are as vulnerable just in different ways. PLEASE DO NOT UNDERMINE SOMEONE’S STRUGGLE SIMPLY BECAUSE OTHER’S HAVE IT WORSE. Homeless individuals, men and female, are part of a marginalized group with unmet needs-- regardless of men’s masculinity-- and it is not your job to decide who gets help or not based on generalized perceptions you attribute to or blame on sex. If you fail to see the radiant person he is in the way he speaks and carries himself, or take into account the three self-less wishes for his community and humanity even in spite of their ignorance and his own helplessness, know that it is you are blinded by your sweeping generalizations and biases; he has nothing to apologize for

Its ironic that even though the aim of channels like this is to educate people and rid them of the many base-less and stereotypical assumptions that surround homelessness as well as remind them of the sensitivity of this subject, there are often people that still go on to suggest that there can only be one reality.

      Unfortunately because of all the abuse he is probably very unstable.Nice and friendly one minute but when people with his type of past feel they've been disrespected in any way they snap. That's why he doesn't have a job. He has the intelligence and friendliness to get a job, The fact he doesn't have one is evidence of problems. All that trauma left him with a lot of mental illness. If you recall the story about being black out drunk and attacking a store owner. That's going to get you in jail and make you lose your job. Sadly unless he chooses to get his life in order and get therapy and anger management not much will change. He's already 28 and has never had a job. I was abused and part of the abused personality type is to not believe in yourself .He doesn't have enough self worth to believe he deserves a home, a family, and stability. Also when you know nothing but chaos your brain doesn't see a "tomorrow". Thats why he had no plan when asked. You couldn't just buy this guy some clothes, an ID, and get him an apartment. That wouldn't make it all better. Hed probably feel boxed in and confined.

      @2BuckGeo it is more complicated than this. Someone who has been homeless practically in his whole life needs rehabilitation. I mean even if he would get a job, not sure he could keep it. His situation is comparable to people who leave the prison system after a very long period of time. So it is not impossible in my view, but it is very difficult. They need strong motivation, but many doesn't have it. Some are content how things are and so don't have what it takes to make such a big change in their life happen.

      Been there. Got out. Sold out to the 9-5 world. There are pros and cons to both lifestyles, really. Someone who's never been homeless for years like this? It's impossible to describe what that actually feels like. It's black and empty. It's sad to see so many people harp on these guys saying his problem is he wished for world peace instead of a house and job.
      When you've been that far down for that long, a house and a job and a "normal" life not only looks kind of unattractive, it feels unobtainable. He's likely tried to get on his feet before and been rejected or failed. There's only so much a person can take before they resign themselves and I hope these assholes here acknowledge how lucky their circumstances are that they literally can't sympathize with a homeless person, because they've never known anything like it.

      @@Constant---K You don't get to dictate the life circumstances of those "assholes". You want to condemn them for judging this man while at the same time blindly calling them "lucky" knowing nothing about their situations. You are no better... Being homeless doesn't automatically award you saint status.
      Now let me be one of those "assholes. Where did he get those tats, hair dye job and the jewellery in his ear? Those are clearly visible choices he made. And I know tats aren't cheap.
      And I noticed he was holding back words when the interviewer placed the words "you aren't homeless by choice" in his mouth.
      I also noticed him arguing he doesn't want people controlling him. Which is what you often hear homeless people say when they are offered help, which is often conditional. Because organizations who actually help don't just unconditionally give money to people who spend it on drugs, tats or jewellery.
      And when a person like that finally accepts the help that he needs and goes in to therapy. The therapist is mainly going to focus on his choices and his actions and their consequences. They're not going to just sit there and pat him on the back and tell him he is nothing but a victim.
