The valley has gotten worse imo. Coming back here since Covid, Sherman oaks and studio city def look different. Wouldn’t see as many homeless folks there as u do now. Used to be north Hollywood and van Nuys… they trickled over.

wow. Thats actually a great idea. I wish politicians would get the message. We just need to send them to big camps where these people can be concentrated and given care. That would solve everything.



I recall reading a pamphlet from the 40s that suggested such an idea.:troll:
Fine, let them stay on the street. I don't live there, it's not my problem.

The underlying problem in all of this the absurd cost of living. People can’t even afford housing to even maintain their mental health. This has and will continue to create more homeless people, more drug abuse and as result a visible mental health crisis for everyone to see daily. Literally everyday I step out I see a homeless person completely broken down or on the verge of a breakdown. I live in Inglewood and for the first time I had to kick out some homeless squatters from the front of my apt building & luckily I have cameras. The problem was so simple but now it’s too complex and extreme to fix without causing mass injustice and casualty.

The homeless been coming here before the cost of living went up. Thy made a South Park ep about it over a decade ago. :stopitslime:

Most of these fukks are druggies or mental cases. :scust:

Notice you don’t have any counter-suggestions or ideas. Just criticisms. Which is actually typical of this forum :mjlol:

Make it legal to beat their ass. :manny:

The ones who are functioning will leave. The other ones will get weeded out eventually. It won't be easy or pretty but letting them run around with no consequences ain't the solution.

This has nothing to do with housing. Those homeless people are just mentally ill. Lack of housing is not what's causing someone to think they work for the FBI, shyt in front of businesses, and become aggressiveness towards random people. They need to be forced into mental facilities.

imagine if this country never shipped millions of jobs overseas...

The beauty of capitalism.

I wonder what’s stopping state govs from really attacking the homeless problem
It can’t be money, is it a law thing or do they not care

The people in government never really have to deal with the problem, head on. The wealthiest parts of the city will hardly ever have any homeless people that are causing a ruckus.
