It's so ridiculously circular for politicians. Let everyone do anything, then when disorder is too much create a program with tax dollars to fix the result ..but leave the problem so they can do it all over again.
looks like a tedious and shitty process cleaning up everyone's 'home'. the sooner they move people out of the sidewalk maybe businesses could function normally again
Sure looks like this state has compassion confused with enabling. And this is the end result, an endless loop of insanity and growing homeless population.
Smh The problem is California government making rent too damn expensive. Exactly why I wouldn’t pay $2-$4k for a place to walk out on skid row and that anywhere you live in la..This city is trash you can thank them!
I travel for a living… I’m an independent and have no faith in either party. When ever I see excessive homelessness issues, it’s in a city/state with Liberal policies… every time.
@ Princess Keiko you must be thinking of a different country. The government does not set the price of rent, we the people who pay that price do. If no one wanted to live here then they wouldn’t charge that. For as many California haters as there are out there there’s way too many that obviously like it here so they drive up the cost of rent and mortgages. Location, location,location.
Make a pamphlet treasure map saying "free food", "free money" and "free services" that lead to every one of politician's and "activist" homes that let this happen. Print several of them and hand them out to the encampments.
Hey on the show BECKER, Ted Danson did that. A mental health home in his neighborhood closed down and all the people were on the street and he drove a group of them to the Mayor's Office and left them.
Or instead of that you could use the money you’d spend on printing all of those pamphlets to start actual initiatives to solve the problem. But I forgot, people on the internet don’t actually want problems solved, because then what would there be to complain about?
About 2 years ago maybe more a friend and I drove to venice beach because we had never been. We noticed lots of homeless people and decided to drive out to santa monica instead. Up till this day I haven't been to venice. Hopefully now I can go.
And where else are they supposed to go? Heroes protect those that need the most help. Why does your view need more protecting than their only living space?
I've been homeless before so I know how it feels, but some of these people being interviewed refuse free housing because there's to many rules,ect and they would rather stay on the beach, or kids that are doing it for the party! And I believe in a lot of cases that's what's it's all about the party! If you refuse help, the hell with you!
I come from a similar background and that's what I see and feel. You can't help people that don't want it, and especially you can't force them to get it. It has to be a desire from within the individual.
Exactly...typical political move, address a symptoms, ignore the problem and give yourself a pat on the back. Without giving the homeless somewhere else to go, they will just return and rebuild. But this kind of stuff makes the wealthy and privileged feel good so thus it's good for politicians to do.
I agree but from watching numerous videos I think they are firetraps more than anything else . One dropped ciggerettes or joint on a windly day and poof all the tents and buildings go up in flames .

@@STERLING43O you know that California pays the homeless money every year and some of them are from out of state? They can apply for it online and get funding straight from your tax dollars. Have you not wondered why the homeless population has increased?

They're just removing the trash and hazardous waste. The bums, junkies, and mental cases are still there and the trash will simply pile up continuously. This isn't fixing anything. Workfarms for the bums and junkies - if they don't work to provide for their own room and board, then jail it is! The mental cases need to be in institutions not roaming the streets like rabid dogs.
So this is you saying property is more important than freedom. You don't mind when rich people get free stuff. Why are you torqued when poor people who can't pay need to be cleaned up after. You need to be cleaned up after that is why a garbage truck comes by your house every week. The difference is that you can afford to have a home and pay for the service. Homeless people can't. Please don't even claim to be a Christian or a humanitarian. Claim what you are greedy and selfish and concerned only with yourself.

All of their so called hoarding is all materials that everyone else threw away.. perhaps they don't have problems with hoarding but you all have issues with being such a disposable culture.. All of that "stuff" that those people were utilizing and recycling will now go unused and do nothing but occupy a toxic landfill that will forever leach toxicity into the environment and only ever grow beyond containment.. Today they clean up the boardwalk, tomorrow the "normal" society will needlessly throw away an alarming amount of still usable material and the cycle will continue... Knocking people down another peg and throwing away the little that they do have (which are the trashed crumbs of society) doesn't get rid of the problem and it only perpetuates it.. If you want to get rid of the clutter and the homeless build them some tiny houses instead of fueling anger, hate and resentment towards a city that obviously doesn't want to address the actual problem but just wants pave the roads of Agenda 21's progress through the shattered lives of our broken brothers and sisters. Imagine if your meager everything was merely the trash of assholes who call you a hoarder when they themselves live day to day mindlessly consuming anything and everything while trashing perfectly functional goods and materials merely because it went out of style..

@Jose Ramirez . . . and who provided the "handouts"?

I've actually talked to several groups of homeless people and many of them do NOT want help, they like living they way they have been living. I knew a guy that got open heart surgery FOR FREE of course and went right back living on the street. He didn't want to work for a living, he just wanted to do nothing to get by. "You can lead a horse to water but you cannot make it drink".
There was a lady who used to stop at the camps in Venice Beach with her Audi TT during the pandemic and give food and smokes to some of the homeless there. That girl was fucking crazier than the “crazy homeless” people living on the street. She was just luckier I guess.
Thank you for your reply! I grew up in Venice. To see it in such bad shape brings tears to my eyes. I was an adult ed teacher and worked to help people on the streets to get help and some kind of training to help them get jobs and housing! Los Angeles needs to see the long term affect not just removing them by force! We need a game plan to help them become part of our society again. The bases could work to do just that.
After I graduated high school in 2001 a buddy of mine and I moved to L.A. from Tulsa to get into show biz. I'm 6'8" and was about 260lbs at the time and I had been on the swim team so I was in fantastic shape. We lived in a little studio apartment about 4 blocks from the ocean off of Mediterranean ave in Venice Beach. The rent was $550/month which wasn't too bad. We both worked day jobs while we went on auditions. I was trying to get work as a heavy because I was so tall. All the casting agents said I was too young to be a bad guy and too big to be a regular character actor. I lasted until Christmas of '01 and came home. My friend lasted until '11. He eventuallyllt got hooked on meth and became homeless himself out there. His parents finally got involved and brought him home. The homeless situation was gnarly 20 years ago out there. I used to walk around with brass knuckles in my pockets so I could slip them on very easily because these bums would come get in your face and automatically be physical and violent with you to try to get your money and I had to drop more than a few of them. Good weather is not worth all that bullshit.

Not only using it for the obvious bathroom opportunity for themselves but they “rent” it’s use to everyone, especially girls..... the price? You ready for it....sometimes just for the water or bread show. Often it’s used for the opportunity to get a female alone in their tent with their pants down and then they rush back in. Plus they stash illegal stuff when police come around and even use the drains to escape or disappear into the sewer after crimes or when their dealer comes around looking for them.
I wouldn't call this a "Homeless Encampment Clean-Up" The encampments have got out of hand. A real clean-up would take more than a few garbage trucks. The city would need to send in something similar to a 100 car freight train, with equipment to remove everything, and not just scattered debris.
@@killshot9683 You're right. In my part of the world (in the San Fernando Valley), it's got worse. The crap is the width of the sidewalks, not enabling people in wheelchairs/other disabilities to use them (an ADA violation) but the city doesn't care. I'm driving to work today and see their crap spilling into the streets (a traffic hazard). I complain, but it's useless.
What makes me the maddest is that the city allowed it to get to this point and now the tax payers have to foot the bill to clean it up. Those are city employees that are doing the work and our taxes pay their salaries.
We CAN house the homeless, they don’t want to be housed! Half the shelters in LA are less than half full! These people don’t want to assimilate into society, Homelessness is a BEHAVIORAL and Substance use issue.
We need to put them on reservations in the desert and see how long they stay "mentally ill" . I bet in a few short weeks half of them would be in school or have a job
Clean up the place and make sure the people who live there don’t let them in again and if they tried to come back chasing out like a dog you guys have to protect your neighborhood
Thats not just homeless... They live there. They dont want to be a renter or a homeowner. They got it good there just chillin. It takes a long time to gather that many household goods and the fact that multiple garbage trucks are needed to clean up beachfront property is outrageous.

Instead of giving money to countries in the Middle East, Latin America, and Africa that never improve their condition and just steal the money, they could use that to build more affordable housing, real affordable. Given that the average pay is less than 12 dollars and hour, can’t be asking 3000 dollars rent.
U can’t win even with affordable housing. U can’t also have cheap real estate because non Americans like Canadians, Australians, Chinese or Japanese will buy them up if it gets to cheap.

It's so ridiculously circular for politicians. Let everyone do anything, then when disorder is too much create a program with tax dollars to fix the result ..but leave the problem so they can do it all over again.
looks like a tedious and shitty process cleaning up everyone's 'home'. the sooner they move people out of the sidewalk maybe businesses could function normally again

For real! Welcome to the sanctuary State of California.
Smh The problem is California government making rent too damn expensive. Exactly why I wouldn’t pay $2-$4k for a place to walk out on skid row and that anywhere you live in la..This city is trash you can thank them!
@@konfidentlykeiko1997 The Government Makes? You're a special kind of thinker.
I travel for a living… I’m an independent and have no faith in either party. When ever I see excessive homelessness issues, it’s in a city/state with Liberal policies… every time.
@ Princess Keiko you must be thinking of a different country. The government does not set the price of rent, we the people who pay that price do. If no one wanted to live here then they wouldn’t charge that. For as many California haters as there are out there there’s way too many that obviously like it here so they drive up the cost of rent and mortgages. Location, location,location.
Make a pamphlet treasure map saying "free food", "free money" and "free services" that lead to every one of politician's and "activist" homes that let this happen. Print several of them and hand them out to the encampments.
Hey on the show BECKER, Ted Danson did that.
A mental health home in his neighborhood closed down and all the people were on the street and he drove a group of them to the Mayor's Office and left them.
That is a cheap and brilliant idea. I’m willing to chip in. Whose doing what?
Or instead of that you could use the money you’d spend on printing all of those pamphlets to start actual initiatives to solve the problem. But I forgot, people on the internet don’t actually want problems solved, because then what would there be to complain about?

Exactly...typical political move, address a symptoms, ignore the problem and give yourself a pat on the back. Without giving the homeless somewhere else to go, they will just return and rebuild.

So this is you saying property is more important than freedom. You don't mind when rich people get free stuff. Why are you torqued when poor people who can't pay need to be cleaned up after. You need to be cleaned up after that is why a garbage truck comes by your house every week. The difference is that you can afford to have a home and pay for the service. Homeless people can't.

Hoarding is a mental illness
Yeah the weird thing is they are rude some of them there also newly homeless i can tell. If they were smart they would suck it up and stay at a shelter like i had to for 15 years. Instead of camping in front of peoples apartments. Nobody wants to hear them bitching at 2am. Find a job, rent a hotel never stay in one spot. Or pitch a tent out in the open.
All of their so called hoarding is all materials that everyone else threw away.. perhaps they don't have problems with hoarding but you all have issues with being such a disposable culture..
All of that "stuff" that those people were utilizing and recycling will now go unused and do nothing but occupy a toxic landfill that will forever leach toxicity into the environment and only ever grow beyond containment..
Today they clean up the boardwalk, tomorrow the "normal" society will needlessly throw away an alarming amount of still usable material and the cycle will continue...
Knocking people down another peg and throwing away the little that they do have (which are the trashed crumbs of society) doesn't get rid of the problem and it only perpetuates it..
If you want to get rid of the clutter and the homeless build them some tiny houses instead of fueling anger, hate and resentment towards a city that obviously doesn't want to address the actual problem but just wants pave the roads of Agenda 21's progress through the shattered lives of our broken brothers and sisters.
Imagine if your meager everything was merely the trash of assholes who call you a hoarder when they themselves live day to day mindlessly consuming anything and everything while trashing perfectly functional goods and materials merely because it went out of style..

Thank you for your reply! I grew up in Venice. To see it in such bad shape brings tears to my eyes.

I'm 6'8" and was about 260lbs at the time and I had been on the swim team so I was in fantastic shape. We lived in a little studio apartment about 4 blocks from the ocean off of Mediterranean ave in Venice Beach. The rent was $550/month which wasn't too bad. We both worked day jobs while we went on auditions. I was trying to get work as a heavy because I was so tall. All the casting agents said I was too young to be a bad guy and too big to be a regular character actor. I lasted until Christmas of '01 and came home. My friend lasted until '11. He eventuallyllt got hooked on meth and became homeless himself out there. His parents finally got involved and brought him home. The homeless situation was gnarly 20 years ago out there. I used to walk around with brass knuckles in my pockets so I could slip them on very easily because these bums would come get in your face and automatically be physical and violent with you to try to get your money and I had to drop more than a few of them.

When you choose drugs,laziness and dumb choices you end up homeless. I picked up one the other day offered him a shower and a hair cut he said no, because he doesn't want to blend in. Homelessness is a choice. Clean it up. Thank you guys .
Says the all knowing
Imagine all the dirty used needles 💉 that the homeless threw in the sand,and you're walking barefoot 🦶💉on the beach and you happen to accidentally step on one.😫
😳 Free COVID vaccine?!?!?! 😳
What a rush tho
That would be my biggest fear.
Getting Hep C, cause some asshole wasn't responsible enough to properly dispose of it.
@@alberthigareda7683 It's free anyway.
@@jackiechan_wtf4041hep c is curable. I'd worry about the not so curable.
Its about time, send them to New York Tribeca, with Robert DeNiro.
send them FOR DeNiro
What if you were homeless?
@@susangodwin5858 sorry but you have a choice and being homeless is of an individuals lack of self respect or simply because they lack self-esteem and if they are mentally unable to care for themselves, so if that's the case why don't you help, the left are such phonies always want to be the saviors and spokesman for mediocrity yet never really caring, talk with your governor ask him where the hell are your tax dollars that should be helping its people who are not truely homeless but in need mental help.
@@edwardmartinez such a misconception that all homeless people are junkies or mentally ill......sometimes bad circumstances, like peoples houses burning in ca has put a lot of people on the streets......its hard to get up when your so down sometimes & you have no help hardly from the city.....if I had millions of $ like a lot of people do there wouldn't be one homeless person in la, they would get motel rooms & help finding jobs, clothes & food until they were on their feet......i couldn't sleep at night knowing I had the means to help people that we're sleeping in a tent.....call me a savior if you want.....
@@susangodwin5858 so then is it fair to say that's its the democrats, after all since California has had democrats it has been failing and the same applies to NY so do you agree?
I missed it, where did the homeless go? Were they taken for treatment or just shuffled off somewhere else?
Shipped to Oregon
Probably scattered. They knew it was coming.
The SCOOPERS got 'em !!!
And now they are eating Soylent Green.
What treatment would you recommend? Fewer regs that result in housing shortages and insane rents and no jobs?
Only took a politician to get threatened there before they actually did something
♦️"I have never been homeless. I have seen what being homeless has done to people. They are NOT, I REPEAT NOT, the scourge of the earth. They are unfortunate people who do not have a home. They need a place to live, food to eat, clothes to wear, friends and family to care about them, and most of all dignity and salvation. Do something to help - do not heap on criticism."♦️
Looks like a productive, yet respectfull pace of work. We will all be dancing the "Safety Dance" soon at Hollywoods' Funck Capital of the World! Thanks Sanitation for your hard and smart work! Not an easy job...
Love it. Start a work camp where people can work off the streets.
Thank you. Now if you could just repeat this process in the area surrounding Gold's Gym in Venice, that would be great.
Instead of giving money to countries in the Middle East, Latin America, and Africa that never improve their condition and just steal the money, they could use that to build more affordable housing, real affordable. Given that the average pay is less than 12 dollars and hour, can’t be asking 3000 dollars rent.
Yup and thank you. But that’s just us common sense, reasonable people talking.
They need some to fix drug problem
This is not about affordable housing. These are people with drug additions and or mental health issues...
These people could also get jobs and stop doing drugs.
U can’t win even with affordable housing. U can’t also have cheap real estate because non Americans like Canadians, Australians, Chinese or Japanese will buy them up if it gets to cheap. It will leave nothing for the average American. I live in Hawaii and it’s really expensive. It’s expensive so Japanese or Canadians won’t buy up the everything and they not even American citizens. They come here and to vac sometimes for 6 months because they so rich.
It saddens me that I don’t see any homeless there helping with the cleanup
They kicked out the poor guys
LA is a lawless and enabling magnet for anyone across the country, who is struggling to assimilate with functioning society, to come live in the most sought after real estate. Where is the balance? You can have compassion and also not encourage insanity.
Finally something is getting done! 👏
You'll find needles, syringes, condoms, wine bottles, razor blades there. It's their haven cause they can do whatever they want. Homeless people has to go. Hazard to the community.
Good luck getting rid of them
If the government is allowing something like this to continue, there is money in it for someone
Local government !!!
These homeless people had more stuff than what I have in my house.
And guess from where they got it? Right, they still everything from local residents. That exactly what happening around my friend’s parents house, homeless people without any shame just still from their yard everything they need for their comfortable living on a street.
...........and its all stolen property from people who WORK to make a living
Amazing, considering they are less than human, huh?
Steal-
Exaggerater alert folks.
Cleansing the streets with fire would be more effective.
The bums tried that, they ended up burning down a lady's house and killing her dog...
Napom
@@bigred1247 it's, napalm.
You're proposing mass killings of homeless people.
I'll just let your small puddle of mush you call a brain take a moment to let that sink in.
The whole earth needs a good fire cleanse
Make sure you get all the needles.
Right sand right there,,, some kid will be stuck for sure
Kid o adult sad
Wonder how much that cleanup costed. Cuz those homeless people didn't just disappear. They moved somewhere else to make someone else's neighborhood look exactly the same way.
You said costed lol
@@DonJetblack00 The pot calling the kettle black. Classic.
The side-effects of real-estate speculation and stock-market gambling comes back to haunt the players. I wouldn’t be counting any chickens as this shit-show is merely the coming attractions.
No...it's the side affects of Communist Liberals
@@lionsfangs739 - Liberals can gamble and speculate as well.
Neoliberal Catastrophe that's all..
Didn’t take long for the blame game to start in this thread. RUclips, Facebook, Nextdoor...all a bunch of finger pointers.
You think these homeless were stock market investors and real estate speculators?
Seems Iike homeless and hoarding go together. Where do they find all that stuff and why. Hope it stays cleaned up. A shame to see these areas dirtier that landfills.
The smartest Homeless People You have met, You just didn't notice.
thats true i would travel lite especially since you have to pick up and go all the time
They pull it out of dumpsters, to them everything has value.
imagine what is buried in the sand
@DEMoc RATS just don’t go it’s a shit hole
@DEMoc RATS sandals? I was thinking more like a nasa space suit
@DEMoc RATS lol
🤢
Needles and shit
That’s not solving the problem just moving it
no one cares if your poor. City’s around world need more affordable public housing
They need a couple dozen people with metal detectors to get all the needles
Go do it your self
Yes all those homeless veterans typically are addicted
CLEAN, SOBER, SAFE, HEALTHY AND PROSPEROUS CALIFORNIA
🌧 RAIN IN CALIFORNIA 🌧
🌧 RAIN IN WESTERN US 🌧
@@kennethadams6589 I don’t live there
Imagine paying the crazy high property tax of one of those beachfront condos only to have a bunch of smelly bums come down like locusts pitch a tent and block your view while they get a better one than you for FREE. Oh hell no.
The homeless definitely overplayed their hand
Overplayed what hand being poor? Seriously your going to blame the poor for being poor instead of blaming the elected officials for destroying the communities they are supposed to serve!??
@@MsPegasus1001 you sound like a child
@@MsPegasus1001 yes! Blame them for making terrible choices. Nobody forced them to do drugs & alcohol and live like parasites off the taxpayers. Good for the city for taking back the beach.
@@MsPegasus1001 why don’t you let them camp in front of your home since you are so concerned.
@@MsPegasus1001
A lot of them are drug addicts. I do feel sympathy for the few that just had a stroke of bad luck, but the ones that continue to use drugs and hassle the average citizen are a blight on the community.
Keep voting democratic folks, this is what it gets you!
