    No where else to go? There is housing offered to people so long as they follow rules and are not doing drugs. ??? These people can get clean if they want…. But they DONT. I can’t feel too bad. And it sucks how it’s affecting the residents who pay taxes and work hard.

      Yup. I've heard homeless people in the Bay talking about how they dont want to go to homeless shelters and "all I want is my own apartment". I work two jobs, so I do not feel bad about these sweeps. I do not work two jobs so others can get handouts whenever they want. It's absurd.

    That encampment was particularly bad. I was riding my eboard along MLK and as I approached the encampment a bunch of homeless people started wandering out into the middle of the road. Then they started having a fight which was blocking traffic. I had to turn around and go back from where I came to find another route. The homeless people had piled up a bunch of stuff all over the bike lanes so those were really hard to use. Just craziness all around.

    This isn’t a clean up, it’s a sweep! Everyone needs to know the difference. A sweep is when the city government uses its giant broom to sweep up all the homeless people into its giant dustpan and throws them away into a landfill for not having jobs! A cleanup is when the city workers give each homeless person a warm sponge bath with bubbles while roomservice cleans their sidewalk with power washer, takes out the massive piles garbage, and leaves fresh clean syringes on the pillow.

    • @Thomas23-tu8gj
      @Thomas23-tu8gj 18 дней назад

      Most are homeless because they are substance abusers, mentally unbalanced, just plain lazy or some combination thereof. That doesn't justify allowing such public health and crime hazards as these giant encampments.

    The solution is forced relocation outside of major cities and suburbs. Develop housing outside of major population centers. The majority of California is raw vacant land most of it owned by the federal government or state government. You can build tons of housing and infrastructure for these people and relocate them to a safer area.
