Don't be sorry

Id take a dump right next to you and im not homeless

what do you expect them to do? if you don't have a place to shit then you have no choice. Its like you think people can just not shit. thats not how nature works.

Why are you sorry they have job opportunity all over. The only people you should feel sorry for is the one that work and live a good life and have to deal with the losers.

id debate the word "want" there,i highly doubt much if any actually desire to do so, but as is both stated and completely reasonable to assume regardless, they go where they can when they can, maybe they don't have time to walk downstairs, or maybe on the street they'd get caught and in legal trouble, im not saying they're kind or anything for doing it,but i don't attribute it to malice, life forces unfortunate choices on us occasionally, we don't all always have the luxury to slowly sort it out. be thankful you're privileged enough that it sounds like you can't quite clearly understand the subtleties of the situation.

Very true. I see it in the neighborhood I live in.

This is absolutely true. A different motel from the one referenced in my long winded post above, opened their doors to the homeless to help get them off the streets during COVID. They repaid the owners by rampant drug use and trashing the place. I will say that some of our tenants were very neat and orderly. Those people followed the rules and were respectful but they were few and far between. You could always tell the people on meth, the place would be wrecked within 24 hours. We got a little tired of cleaning up after them!

Our SOCIETY created houseless people, the houseless people themselves didn’t want it. Who would want to live in the elements, addicted to drugs, fearful of being robbed or assaulted at any moment?

Since you admit you were homeless last summer, I was just wondering, why did you CHOOSE to do so? Were you bored? Looking for some adventure? Trying to shame the neighborhood bum into doing better for themself?

@@codymoe4986 We didn't choose to lose our longtime home because the person that bought it had no interest at all in being a landlord (totally his right), however I have never in my life been unsheltered.

@@jeawbone What society fails to understand is these are all people who have suffered mental, physical and sexual abuse. We tell these abused people we do not care about you go self medicate use dangerous drugs. This is not how we should be treating trauma, dehumanizing folks.

@@nathanlong4801 People become homeless for all kinds of reasons. Mental health and addiction issues that need _treatment,_ not ridicule. Some are also homeless owing to PHYSICAL health issues and medical debts. And some homeless people actually work full-time, but aren't paid a living wage.

No, it's more like Satan that deceived people into it being a creature of light when it is a creature of lust+greed. USA is a population of idiots. You're all just chewing cud waiting to go to the chopping block yourselves.

The solution is simple. 12x12ft rooms with a toilet+tub. Designed so they can be sanitized easily with jets of bleach. And an ability to get food, medicine, and medical care. The cost would be trivial. Mental institutions for the crackpots that cannot maintain a room. Prison for the violent. In a 24x144ft space, you could house 100 people in 4 stories, 200 people in 8 stories. 1200 people if made 144x144ft, which is just 2 mobile home lengths.

Mental illness and addiction are the 2 biggest components of homelessness. Unless you MAKE people get treatment, and they WANT it, it will not change.

Because your situation is identical to theirs, and vice versa? I didn't know the rest of us were supposed to be following your lead...

@@radolfkalis4041 I 100% agree that these people need help to improve their situation, but to remove their own personal responsibility for themselves from the equation isn't going to help them get to a better place. I've seen people go to jail, do a six month bid, kick their drug/alcohol addictions (by force, obviously), and the first thing they do when they get released is go get high. Which perpetuates their homelessness. So why waste time/resources on this person? If they refuse to take personal responsibility for their own well being, treatment is ineffective. My point being, most of these people are making a choice to live their lives that way, whether they know it or not, and any effort to correct their behavior is wasted because they immediately revert to their former selves as soon as they possibly can.

@@codymoe4986 If you have given up hope that you can improve your situation, and refuse to take personal responsibility for your own well being, then yeah, you should be following my lead. Homelessness doesn't just happen out of nowhere. A chain of events, and your subsequent reactions to those events, is what leads to being homeless. When family troubles, relationship troubles, employment troubles, and legal troubles fell upon me (all at once) at a certain period in my life, I made the decision to use drugs/alcohol as a solution to those problems. Which it obviously isn't. But I took responsibility for that poor decision, and decided to change my life for the better by working hard and never giving up on myself. Whatever your situation is, you always have a choice. You can choose to not give up on yourself. And no one can be forced to do that. It's a decision you make, or don't make, for yourself. I refuse to believe that these people's situation is hopeless and irreversible. That's what they believe, and what perpetuates their situation. People are more willing to help when they see someone making an effort to improve themselves.

There it is, right there. Thank you, Bryan.
