- Crews in San Francisco have begun patrolling the streets and clearing homeless encampments. This comes a few days earlier than originally planned after the mayor said sweeps would start in August.
The mayor has doubled down on something she said last week when she told KTVU the plan was to make it uncomfortable for people living on the streets so that they would take the city up on its offer for shelter and services.

This should've been dealt with years ago. California officials allowed this to go on way too long.
"Officials" are actually criminals.
Let’s go trump
But it was the Supreme Court that just recently made the ruling on clearing encampments. California and other states like Oregon couldn't make a move like this until now.
Those unhoused need to take the city up on the shelters, because living on the streets longterm, shouldn't be an option.
it's part of the plan by the ultra rich (e.g. George Soros and London Breed's husband)
It's big business, over the last few years $24 billion has gone unaccounted for. People are fleecing the system and don't want the gravy train to stop.
Accept help or go to jail. Living in a tent on a sidewalk is not acceptable!
this is the policy in just about every country around the world
@@arcana_mysterythat is RUclips. They will delete any comments that they don’t want people to discuss.
FINALLY, FINALLY
There is NO HELP... that's the problem...
@fleabag2mr.151 I agree sadly we have come to this, some of this people are from out of state 😕 believe I know because I see them arrive to the city everyday with lots of luggage and hear them talk about how someone informed them to come to CA
Homeless encampments devastate business and the public.
Yes make this people see that
Conservatives destroying the social safety net for over 40 years has consequences.
Exactly. Destroying our tourism trade and on and on. Enough!!
Who cares, it’s San Francisco the bay area’s toilet. Always has been always will be😂🤣😂 babylon has fallen
No shit - what’s _your_ solution? Not enough room in the jails, states refuse to fund long-term rehab programs, states refuse to enforce laws/arrest drug dealers, constant influx of new homeless, shelters are havens for drugs/violence/theft, states refuse to do anything to help make housing cheaper, states refuse to build tiny homes for the homeless, etc. etc. Until we root out the corruption at the very top, nothing will change.
Advocates should open their homes for them.
Maybe you should open something other than your vile, no solution mouth and offer up your recommendations. Typical MAGA hater, finger point and blame others, absolutely nothing resembling a viable or reasonable course of action which should be taken. A quick, snide, nasty quip is all it takes, right TACO? What exactly are your goals? Total oaf.
Yup. Many are dope dealers who want to collect $$$.
This should have been done long long ago. So many businesses have gone belly up and no one talks about them as victims.
If the rich steal from you do the same thing back. Eye for an eye.
@@chadddudleyartist except one is a crime now and the other isn't.
@@davi75668 no evidence no crime. 💪🏻😎🇺🇲 The 99% could put the 1% in jail and take every penny they have. That can happen in a blink of an eye. I would love to see all the trust fund babies cry. Outlaws founded this country and outlaws need to take it back. Just know that large groups are forming and the tsunami is coming for the rich 😎🇺🇲 Real Freedom 💪🏻😎🇺🇲
OK lets see the sanitation roll out too. Washing sidewalks, public bathrooms every quarter mile and trash cans on every block. We pay crazy taxes and everything is filthy and depressing.
Too late. Most the businesses packed up and left.
Reno, Austin, Phoenix, Boise... anywhere is better than here.
@@TransitionSF why stay?
They will be back in the streets after the election
We Californians must open our homes and take street homeless in. There is no any other solution.
Just enforce the drug laws and everything will be fine
They won't. The Sanctuary city laws prevent enforcement of drug trafficking laws. It is not drug use at the core it is trafficking by sophisticated Foreign criminal syndicates. No amount of rehab or jail will solve the problem of powerful crime families peddling drugs.
Just make drugs illegal and we'll go back to normalcy.
🤣🤣🤣
@@diggingmystyle so lock up everyone who uses drugs or just the poor ones?
@@ryanletemi whoever can pay bail.
When homeless people can make their own law , refuse the offer to go to shelter, then go back and blame the government for not helping them …. The irony …
What help😂. Rich people just stole all their stuff. Do the same thing back. Eye for an eye.
Some people are blocking the sidewalk for years. It becomes a public safety issue.
These folks don't want the structured environment like shelters because it would be much harder for them to commit crime or do drug in that environment. Today, they can easily hide stolen goods/properties in their tents.
Totally agree with you
Yup especially that dude saying I just wanna stay
@FullSpectrumWarrior and being left alone 😔 such entitlement they refuse housing,mental illness help,and there are people that still defend them I wish this self called homeless advocates live around there encampments so they can get the full experience I bet that they would change their opinion about this hard topic
@@LuisGarcia-or7cn they only are advocates when not directly affected.
@@FullSpectrumWarrior my opinion exactly
This should have been done years ago.
Let’s go trump
Years? More like decades ago
Joel only wants to be left alone to live a life of drugs and invading public property it does not belong to you the city is offering him help,basically lazy individual that doesnt want to have any responsibility entitled this is what they are use to
Yeah most of these people are total narcissistic weirdos, Joel included
Yup
they have so many resources in California its not funny. Free food vouchers, free showers, like you wouldnt believe it
Exactly
You think absolutely ALL homeless people are drug addicts? Lmfao, keep letting fox news feed you lies even though you know..fox is MAINSTREAM MEDIA
MY tax money goes to the city to make it clean and safe.
And goes to criminals ripping off the tax payers ( i.e. Medicare fraud, stealing funds, & etc) . It also goes to countries we don't give a shit about.
Newsom spent (or got the equivalent to spend) $160,000 for every 'homeless' person on the streets in CA. That's a house each in any other place.
Gavin NEWSOM said he would solve homeless within 10 years when he was Mayor of San Francisco. That was 15 years ago. We have open borders. Common sense tells you this will only get worse. The more people we have will never stop.
You can’t slam drugs on a cot in a shelter
Bs
@@415_Stand-up I mean you can who’s stopping em anyway
thought most shelter force these guys out during the day, so they still be causing chaos on the streets during the day
@tofuyam7361 they let them out to consume drugs and alchol then let them back in high and drunk reason for fights constantly but I'm only using my common sense this is my brain without the vax and boosters 😉😉🤫

Ladies and gentleman remember that lady in charge of coalition in homelessness get probably like 300k a year and doesn’t do anything to help the homelessness…

Election time, pretending like they care
Who’s? Newsom isn’t up for election this year
Let’s go trump
@@FullSpectrumWarriorBreed is up for election. And the Dems want to fool people into voting Harris so now they want to clean their cities.
London Breed really, really, really wants to be re-elected SF mayor....too little, too late!!! Vote her out!!!
Covid has passed and the Supreme Court has finally taken the chains off her. Vote Breed.
I am not voting for Breed or Peskin.
Breed, you're fired!
Things will go back to "normal" once the elections are over.
You think they are that smart???
Don't forget compassion cost money. Nothing is free. Someone pays for it.
But virtue-signaling is free lol
@@RandomRabbit007 Hahaha! Virtue signaling is for the woke who believes it's free.
About 4 years too late.. damaged has been done. Better late than never, I guess.
It's about time! Keep them from coming back and repeating the whole cycle.
Shelters dont work fgor some people because they drink and drink and take drugs!!!
Not our fault they can't follow the very basic rules of "put your paraphernalia in the box when you enter the shelter, take it when you go back out"
Ok … so they should just be able to live in a tent wherever they want? Nah son.
Homeless avoid Shelters because they hate rules. Offer them drugs and alcohol they will come.
Because..... ? You do realize that addiction is a disease, rarely if ever a choice. Most of these people, and they are people, are ill. What do you recommend then hero? Who wishes as a child to grow up and live in a tent on a dirty sidewalk in a large, noisy, often frightening city and rely on sporadic handouts from strangers or volunteers? You actually think that this was a goal, a choice which was made voluntarily? It must be nice to sit on your perfect perch, addiction free, no one around you needing a thing, all of your wants met, in a pristine environment and pass judgement on others whom you know nothing about nor care anything about.
those many reasons: drugs
So, the city is giving them an apartment ? The ones who have no money and no mental health or drug/alcohol addiction pay for that apartment ?
About Time!!!! San Francisco Went To Trash
Trump for president
@ninerscountry7885 heck yeah
MAGA 🇺🇲 🗽
Amazing how this has been normalized to the point that people are “outraged” that these camps are finally being cleared out. 🤦🏻♂️
How many years did this take? And how many years will this take?
It took the sudden rise of Krapala Harris.
@@edwinmalachyYou know it was the Supreme Court ruling that has enabled them to do this type of enforcement
It took decades not years. Until people stop supporting democratic politicians that continue to support these activities, this will continue to be a problem forever.
Election year
Why are they tenting on the sidewalk. Did they pay rent to use the sidewalk?
Everyone pays rent for the sidewalk or else it wouldn't be there LET'S BE SERIOUS !!
@@415_Stand-updo they?
Do they pay rent? No.
YOU pay, and pay and pay and pay...
You're right! They should be squatting in vacant homes!
Tax-Payers got that sidewalk built.

ABOUT TIME!!
Go camping at a campsite with your ⛺
They would but can't afford the cost ..
@@lynncollver6067 I guess you do have a point 😩
@@lynncollver6067plenty of BLM land they can camp for free, they don’t want to be self reliant though. 🤷🏼♀️
Na keep those junkies away from our camp sites
“Stay out of jail” but don’t say “I need a job”
Many are young addicts that drifted to California from out of state and are stuck here broke. Help them sober up and get back home to family.
All seniors and disabled should get SRO type housing first. I support a 24/7 managed drug/alcohol free campground for those from SF first, those working in the city and others from the Bay Area
Shelter, Jail or Drug Rehabilitation but NO MORE destroying everyone else's surroundings with trash, filth, stench, open drug use
I just don't believe these homeless can live under any regulations and rules at the shelter. Just move them far away from the general population and let them live without any rules and regulations. Only when they ask for help can we should provide.
Most are addicts, which makes living normal way impossible until they get off drugs. I’ve got to know some non addicted homeless and most can get help pretty easy if they aren’t out of their minds.
Treatment and counseling shouldn't be an offer, it should be mandatory. They will never solve the problem this way...not that they want to since that means a lot of people will be out of work.
This isn't compassion, this is subsidizing misery.
You know what’s a hassle? People that live in the area that want a clean and safe space to reside! Ffs. I used to have sympathy, but they even say themselves they don’t want the help. I wish it was easier for everybody to afford to live in this state, but unfortunately that’s not the case.
its time to realize its not okay to be lazy all day and panhandle for drugs. people do not have a right to be a bum and get free things, and just lay on the sidewalk. it has to stop.
Newsom’s had millions to clean this s up! But never did!
You think being "compassionate" changes anything? Their choice to live in the street eliminates MY choice to live without the destruction
Being compassionate got us here. In this mess.
Can't say the public hasn't been patient.
Why Jennifer is commenting from office, not from the street cleaning after homeless?
I wonder how much money was laundered to pay for those paintings she has covered up! I’d bet it’s an investment she’ll sell later on down the road when she’s long retired! They launder the 23 billion
Too much humanity. Sometimes you just have to force them into rehab and clear the streets.
I agree there needs to be full on rehab detox treatments and mental health facilities because some people need to be tranquilized.
We normalized crapping on the streets and trashing our neighborhoods.
@@m.nasser4311 not my neighborhood
Enforce the drugs laws. Hand people over to the feds. That will get them out of San Fran real quick.
Having our streets and parks look worse than a 3rd world slum is not acceptable. Oh, and then there’s the crime...
Hey Jennifer Friedenbach, what is your solution? don't just complain about a solution brought up by others and not have multiple ideas to back it up.
She's one of the many liberals who makes her living off this crisis. A solution isn't beneficial to her and she and her ilk are not interested in finding real ones.
if she had her way these people would be living rent free in single family houses or in highrise apartments with balcony in a nice neighborhood
She's not interested in solutions. She and too many other libs/leftists are waxing fat off the homeless industrial complex. They do interviews like this and blog about how unfair it is for 'the unhoused' and get paid tens and or hundreds of thousand per year. And we as taxpayers are subsidizing all that.
These homeless people are choosing to be on the streets by refusing shelter!!
Man you folks are in for a shocker when you get the bill for locking up homeless people.
If the campers are allowed to camp...san francisco will surely end. We have reached the tipping point. We can't afford to allow the camping.
@@danielfiore8865 Well have fun paying a minimum of $95,000 per person per year you lock up.
What happens to them in the long run. I tried to help two men to get off the street, they didn't want to move into a permanent home. I'm in the mountains but I suppose the attitude is the same. I don't know.
And stop providing services so homelessness quits becoming a profession. Job time!
And if you too old to work this troll will just exterminate you or if you disabled …. Because stop providing services mentality. Where have we seen that mentality before? Was it 1933? 🤔
That red framed glasses homeless industry advocate is why this problem is so big. Sounds like Breed is finally getting tough and taking action. Thank God.
Must be election time.
Sorry Joel we just dont want our kids to see this shit on our streets anymore
How about the people that are respectfully living in cars and maintaining a job
Gee. I WONDER if this has ANYTHING to do with...the election...
It’s plain as day if you have any sense which I see majority of people don’t ❗️
It's only partly true.
Breed came into power just as the Covid was lifting off and her hands were tied.
I believe she's actually a good, well-meaning person who really wants a happy SF for ALL of us.
Yes, the 2016 election. Packed the Supreme court and cleared the way for counties to be able to use more extreme measures to deal with people on the streets.
We Californians must open our homes and take street homeless in. There is no any other solution.
Joel is just gonna live somewhere else on the street!!!!! aint gonna make a difference!!!!
Like they said, make it difficult for the homeless... The city should harass the homeless until they take their help... Shape up or ship out
Cap! I work in the city. I'll notify y'all by Friday if they cleaned the tents.
The tents have been cleared bubba

Why doesn't the woman that says "Stop the Sweeps" invite the homeless to live in her house?
Jail should be a homeless shelter too! Teach people discipline so they can educate themselves and become valuable members of society! Otherwise, don't let them out!
WHY NOW DOES HE DECIDE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS AFTER ALL THESE YEARS ITS UNREAL...GAVIN IS RUINING SO MANY LIVES
Better late than never buddy.
I wanna see how it goes in oakland
Lol will be super ghetto
“Sweep” is such a nice word for arrest.
Build some where for them too live it's a free country which tell u it wouldn't cost a dime too build some where for them too live
Relocate them to Newscom's neighborhood.
Newsome is trying to score a political point. Get rid of these incompetent politicians.
It should be a war on *addiction* not a war on drugs. If people didn’t want to do the drugs, there’d be no market for it.
If you can’t afford to live in San Francisco then I guess you need to move. 💩 on the streets isn’t acceptable at all…
We need more shelters and housing for these homeless people . Get help or got to prison . This drug issue is ridiculous
Somebody wants to be the VP candidate, how nice!
The city officials said (at 1:22) that there are hotels, shelter beds and drug rehab services right now for the homeless, but then Jennifer Freidenbach of the Coalition on Homelessness SF (at 2:55) said there is the "basic problem of people not having a place to go, not having a place to live." So who is lying?
No more camping. Shelter bed for night, get out and get a job during the day.
Must be election year. 🙃😛
Not for governor
Not for governor
It’ll be used by the Republicans as an example of failures of Democrat policies so they want to clean it up.

So they are showing up in San Rafael. More like sweep it under the rug or to another town.
Don’t be silly; the Homeless have been in San Rafael for decades
In August 2022, a San Rafael policeman was caught dumping a homeless person in San Francisco's Golden Gate park.
@@waltertoki1 key words "caught"
We Californians must open our homes and take street homeless in. There is no any other solution.
Homeless in California (entire State) get FREE FOOD/ EBT, FREE HEALTHCARE, MONTHLY CASH MONEY, FREE HOUSING, ETC. and can still work/ earn money/ minimum wage at $20 per hour, and the ability to live in a near perfect weather location. Its the MIDDLE CLASS with children in California who are really struggling.
camping on the sidewalk is illegal. You don't like it and want to live outside? You get a free bus ticket back to wherever you came from. Trespassed from the city.
The tax payer will take on the hotel bill for them.
We are here to help you by giving you this golden opportunity. They say this as they toss their shelter tent and their possessions and throw them in a dumpster. Now we have these great shelters you can go to, you know the ones that you have been trying to avoid.
Trying to stay out of jail…….ok so you have lived a life of drug, alcohol and crime and we are supposed to bend down constantly to you…..no longer
I can understand that people can become homeless and may have to live on the street, but why are they such slobs? I've never seen so much debris and garbage scattered around than in those encampments. Even a junkyard is neater.
What a bunch of BS. Maybe JOE needs to sell/pawn that generator, buy a bus ticket and LEAVE. Beds are open yet they rather live in a tent...NO PITY...Maybe they need to be locked up.
Easy drug access in SF
Won't get rid of Mexican and Honduran drug cartels that supply the city. Homeless drug users are not the problem.Predatatory drug traffickers living under the protection of Sanctuary city policy is the problem.
@@goldenSun415 theres easy drug access everywhere
Get names of friends and relatives to reach out to the homeless. My brother homeless and finally we got connected and helped him get set up with housing and primary doctor.
All smoke and mirrors , the homeless will be in the streets again in a month or two .
if homeless people are kept coming to San Francisco, there is not much city can do. cutting down homeless benefits to homeless people in the city will help.
We have seen for years what we’re doing isn’t working….So yes , I’m ok with the new approach… let’s give it a try
They kick these people out on the street first thing in the morning then it’s first come first serve for dinner with no job help at all during the day.
But hey.. maybe soon they will just all get arrested so we can pay more tax money to private prisons.
It Won't Last!
So they won't punish actual crimes, but go after the most vulnerable people, who need help the most?
Sorry these homeless needs to process, if you can’t take care yourself then cops/ city have the right to process you into what ever programs to get out the public city street or rivers, or they need to be send back to original origin (city, State, Country). Most of the homeless aren’t from California, or Country.
I agree like if they have a relative or someone who will take them that's great. Mental health facilities, detox/rehabs, and affordable housing where you have to piss clean to live there. That's what's needed. Also here's an idea pay the homeless to pick up the trash. $20 a bag of trash.
One of the officials made a comment that I really liked she said, we want to make it as uncomfortable as possible so they take the help we're offering them I agree with that statement just feel so sorry for the business owners and people who are renting there
If you want people to change then you have to be strict
Only AFTER nearly every business left town does SF decide to do something. 😂😂😂
Advocates love the homeless their livelihood depended on them,they live in a comfortable homes,they wanted the homeless sleep on sidewalks,more paychecks to the advocates,they are not compassionate to homeless,they only care above themselves,cut off their jobs money savings to help the seniors,disabled,not drug addict,go back to your families,but first your must quit drugs and alcohol.
Took me a while to understand but I agree. 😅
Wow San Francisco. You’re cold hearted.
POV it's an election year
2:57 childless cat lady is afraid of losing her paycheck for not working.
We all have to figure things out that's part of life. These ppl need to figure out how to be homeless
The shelter format needs to be updated to acknowledge the fact that many would prefer NOT to be in a large hall bunk bed arrangement. This seems like so obvious that a school kid could figure it out. There are those who would prefer to have the privacy of their tent, and there are the rest of the population who don't want people living in tens on sidewalks, and there's a ton of empty commercial buildings and warehouses. So, let people live in tents inside these buildings, with security / supervision and some basic services, and then take it from there. Start thinking outside the box, folks, because this sh*t's taking forever to get fixed.
