Same here in the UK - it's awful

Right. But they have enough to buy drugs and alcohol every....single....day. Any one of these people could go to AA meetings to get clean and find a place to stay. But they refuse to go. Why? Hell there is even free coffee and cookies at every meeting. But they refuse to go. My point is that you cant force these people to get off the streets.

Spokane has one of the lowest costs of living in the country

low paying jobs?? or low skill levels?? pretty sure there's plenty of living wage jobs. by these peoples teeth and crazy eyes I can tell that drugs are their problem. and have been for some time. stop blaming the wrong thing if you honestly want to help. otherwise you're an enabler.

Leftist policy.

In America they got rules that stop moving around stay where you at

Seattle salutes you brother

Well said

I don’t like how the seem to just trash areas but humans should be able to put in their body whatever they want. And a lot of these laws against drugs are dumb af

I use to think like this also I grew up in spokane when I was 15 I was lucky enough to get a job. I remember my dad picking me up from work one day which right there is a blessing to have him do that for me. I saw a homeless kid looked like he was on drugs begging for money. I was like what the hell is he doing out there he can work just like I do. My dad looked at me and said “ you have no idea what that kids been through in his life and you should never judge someone even if their on drugs because you don’t know what led up to that”. Changed my whole outlook in 15 seconds. I then moved to SoCal when I was 20 and was homeless well living at a hotel for over a year not because of drugs I didn’t even drink. Just was so hard to get into a place even with money. One day I got in a huge fight with my BF and I left the room crying. I was out sitting on the curb crying my eyes out. I went to go use the pay phone. Since they still had those to call my family back in spokane. I ran out of money and this homeless man came up to me and gave me $3.50 in change and said here I think you need this more then I do right now. Point of stories are we never know anyone’s story we should just be grateful ours turned out better then the ones homeless hurt and addicted to drugs. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

@@loveconquersall4094 You will see Humanity in much different ways if you spend any time out on that sidewalk, mostly good but some bad just what it is man. You gotta kick down the kick downs thats just what it is. Riding Freight trains and just having random people give me $100 I made sure to kick a portion of that down to the next one and be respectful.

I'm moving to spokane next summer from eugene oregon

@@uglyhobo4602 yeah, good luck with that. I left earlier this year.

@@deltacharlieecho4732 I'm homeless. Sick of eugene

Smh...yup!

nobody cares about your fucking story.

Well damn thank you thank you you're the first person in this world that spoke the truth out of all these social medias and day-to-day living thank you again.

We have homeless problem induced by drug problem

It’s not just that. I work 50 hours a week but couldn’t even begin to afford an apartment if I hadn’t found my current housing when I did.

Thats a fucking stupid statement, no idea what you're talking about haha

Help get rid of them? Yes please. Because they don't want to get better. And the ones that do, choose to. And good for those very very small few.

This comment didn't age well.

Even just dont do drugs and have any job. You can find a roomie.

Actually it's not that simple. Imagine having a major medical illness and you can't afford a place and medical bills.

that first smile sealed the deal

when crack is cheaper than dispensary weed

Ali Resai And So you've smoked yourself into believing that's what's causing the homelessness in Spokane that is fucking hilarious 😂 "Yeah I'm out here on the streets because weed is legal said the homeless man."

@@sfast8625 😂 yep
