If only everyone had that kind of decency. The limitless evil and willful cruelty in people's hearts today both in the public and in the power structure never fails to shock me too my core. Such as today in fact. Revolting case in point: for the first time in a long time, possibly ever, the city of LA literally passed an ordinance 13 to 2 to CRIMINALIZE being homeless and effectively prevent them from putting their tents up anywhere within city limits. THIS JUST HAPPENED TODAY. Homeless rights groups are going through the roof. I don't know what satanic cruelty possessed them to do this or how exactly they plan to enforce this as there are at least 50,000 homeless individuals throughout LA county. I've been sick all day about it. These people have lived through traumas we'll never know, and they have nowhere else to go. As if we all still aren't in the middle of a vicious pandemic which has only increased homelessness including many households who have become homeless for the first time ever. How the city council can do this, knowing full well all these obvious facts, and still do this with a clean conscience, is something I feel shocked and angered beyond words in response to. LA county has access to some of the richest tax base in the country and they offer next to NOTHING for their mentally ill and/or homeless. Rent is a crime and out of control yet someone with severe mental illness or who lost their job and home due to the pandemic is just supposed to find $4000 lying around somewhere and be able to afford a new residence. All while living out of a tent. It's gobsmacking and absolutely beyond comprehension. Because those people WANT to be on the street, right!! Right! Or they're all there because of drugs, RIGHT! and what- so that means they don't deserve help??? Support??? Access to treatment if they want it?? Of course nothing could be further from the truth. Drug use is only one of many causes of homelessness. Welp, let politicians both local or federal NEVER disappoint you with their infinite and rapacious attitude for inherent cruelty and predation on the weakest of the weak. I hope there's a very hot, very hateful place waiting for these monsters in the afterlife.

@anniesue4456 Street police are 99% evil. They serve the devil by preying on the weakest of the weak where they live. They are all robot psychopaths. Abolish these monsters I say, and DEFUND NOW. These gangs of predators have stolen enough of our blood and treasure!!* *Obviously we will need a few for first response; so when I say to abolish Im not speaking in pure absolutes; a small crew of trained neighborhood responders can get maintained, but it doesn't have to continue as it has been with these soulless predators and amoral mercenaries armed and ready to kill at the slightest notice. And even if they don't kill, the damage is often done. All city Pigs do is hurt the weak- they don't have souls and HELPING is the LAST thing they want to do. They exist to cause pain and extortion and theft, that's it. THAT'S IT!!

40 years of predatory reaganism has destroyed whatever hope the US ever had at being a decent and respectable nation. I'm a proud, drum-beating Socialist who lives in California so anyone who knows me knows what to expect from me in response to these situations. I could go on and on with my hate for this third world devolving nation and great Satan in the world. I'm going to fight like hell to do what I can to make it better, and then I'm going to leave. Maybe Mexico, maybe Canada, I don't know. I love everywhere I've lived in the US but 30% of the people are nuttier than a fruitcake and the power structure is so corrupted, and peopled by such willfully evil predators, I just don't know if it can be fixed. I dream of Canada invading and taking over bit they haven't exactly been a bastion of human rights either; not in regards to their First Nations people's or their low-skilled migrant population that they are currently exploiting. Still, a damn sight better than the US, I'm sure. My heart breaks for all the people victimized by the psychopaths in power here, from the demonically-evil state Pigs aka State Troopers, local street police, DAs, evil judges, metro area city councils and everyone in between. I don't mean to be too pessimistic but I look out, I carefully gather my evidence both past and present, and all I see is absolute pathological predation and cruelty on steroids and attitudes in the public of shocking levels of apathy or approval to it. I cross my fingers California will secede. Maybe we can do better on our own. Then again, the internal oppressors and corruption-lovers would still be here, within the state's power structure, and independence wouldn't change that. So I guess there is no goddamn easy answers. As a human-centered Socialist I know exactly what the answers are, but I doubt I'll ever have the power to enact them. I pray every day something changes drastically here in the next ten years. I don't know what it's going to take. Maybe we'll finally have a real mass uprising for a change, idk. There's got to be a better way and I pray we get there before more millions suffer or die needlessly and avoidably to crimes of cruelty, neglect, and high-level capitalism; because right now that's exactly where we're headed for far too many and it's happening exactly as we speak. A lot of people are suffering, a lot of people are desperate for help and aren't getting it. I never understood the elites' and the politicians' boundless appetites for cruelty and apathy towards the working and lower classes here. And God forbid if you're a person with a disability, a serious physical health need or a mental health condition. Those are almost concrete guarantees you're going to flirt with poverty all your life and have a very high likelihood of ending up on the street or in a homeless status at least once in your life. I dont know why the powers that be are so corrupt and cruel here. Those that can make it on the private market for jobs and support do so, and those that can't fall thru the cracks and have to scramble for help from friends or family, or they end up on the street or a shelter (if they can even find one that will take them and that has an opening). What a tragic state of affairs. It doesn't have to be like this, but the phenomenally abusive and predatory ruling class and their servants in govt ensure it stays this way. Then they can't even have a modicum of understanding and compassion for the homeless on the street that their system helped create, and instead prefer to demonize them and subject them to dehumanizing treatment. It's ... I don't even know what to think anymore. It's a cavalcade of sadism and a merry-go-round of savagery. Millions are doing great, to be sure; and millions aren't. Every year I keep wondering when the sadism in our system here is going to stop, and every year it just keep doubling down over and over. Forty years of Reaganism has done exactly what it set out to do, create havoc in the bottom 40-50% of the population here. It's done all that , and so much more. What will the next 40 years bring I wonder???? More of the same? Worse?? Private charity is simply not able to meet the needs of everyone who needs help here, and govt at all levels for the most part couldnt care less. So where in the FUCK does that leave us??? I honestly don't know but it causes those of us who care about these issues a lot of pain every day.

God bless your friend. Doing exactly what Jesus asked us to do! If only more would follow. I hope to do the same one day, adopt several youth out of foster care or the street.

@frederickmuhlbauer9477 I've lived out of my car before on several occasions due to necessity. I managed but I'm also relatively young an healthy. Now after the illegal evictions that have happened over the last 15 months and there's about to be many more, I'm sure good people of all ages will have no choice but to live in their car until they somehow better their situation. What a sad state of affairs in the world's wealthiest country. Guess that's what happens when 95% of the wealth stays in the top 1-5% of hands. Our lives to the vast majority of politicians in both parties don't matter- they take their bribes and go home happy leaving the rest of us, as always, on our own. That's capitalism and American politics for you, the best corruption and sociopathy money can buy. And it's always been that way, but never as bad as now IMO.

@dottiefarmer5547 oh and stop being such a bootlicker Dottie. Most of them in metro areas are bastards and wouldn't hesitate to F*** you up or extort from you if they got the itch to. Most don't care about ANYONE but themselves and their "gang". Put the blue wang away. BLACK LIVES MATTER. ✊🏿✊✊🏼 F*** BLUE LIVES.

@f oh who's reproducing?? While I recommend to everyone to use BC as much as possible, I don't think counting on people to slow down their cumulative birth rate is going to solve the economic issues that face us today. It may be helpful to take that approach in the developing world but that's not going to be able to have a significant effect on the issues of poverty within the US. Only radically different political leadership and a Socialist aka human-needs-based approach is going to get at the root of the problem.

@avamasquerade that's revolting, absolutely revolting. What a great society we are, judging and looking down on CHILDREN instead of doing what adults are supposed to do, which is protect them. They should be ashamed of themselves. And so what if they wanted more freedom and wanted to experiment with drugs?? That's natural for a young person! It sure was for me. But that's not what those kids were out there for, nobody leaves a safe home for a life on the streets, the vast majority of homeless youth are there because of abuse and that nobody was protecting them. These only comfort I have from these situations is knowing that all abusers will be rotting in hell someday. My only hope is that I get to see what some of these monsters go through once I get there, maybe once I'm passed on I'll get that chance.

@pornstarlivesmatter3319 sadly in other countries you would be taken care of. But in these United States where nobody's life matters (unless you're rich or at least fairly well off), you're left with few choices for healthcare. I'm really sorry you're dealing with health challenges. All of this pain and suffering is avoidable if we didn't have a government run by evil blood-drinking corrupt psychopaths. What else are taxes fucking for?!?! If the corporate class and the rich paid their fair share, and we spent less on destroying the world, everyone's basic material needs in this country could be provided for easily! Healthcare, housing, higher education, transportation, UBI, mental health care- you name it. We could ALL have it IF the people in charge weren't absolutely bought and paid for servants of the 1% and the war and prison business industry. It's a shame we have such an immoral group of thugs in charge. This is the richest country in the world, where half the population lives in some level of poverty or low-income conditions. We can't even get the most basic of provisions in this country and all the welfare programs we currently have are inadequate at best. It's very sad. This causes massive avoidable suffering lack across the board.

Well said Edie 100% true!

@smith97320 I don't think that's it, I'm pretty sure it's the opposite, altho I wish that were true.

@matthewwilliams7735 YOU need to STFU! YOU are very hate-filled and spiteful. A believer???? Ha! In what?! Being a loser and an asshole?? If you truly believed in Jesus' love and loved your fellow man you wouldn't be so hateful and an obvious MAGA loser. Shame on you. Shame, shame!

I'm so happy things worked out for you Jodie. I'm sorry you had that tough time. I wish nobody had to, but sadly due to horrible, corrupt and evil governance, the amount of homeless persons in the US has skyrocketed in the last 40 years.

@kevinrbarker it CAN be fun if you have someone to rely on and have your back and enough money to get by. Otherwise it can be a bad and traumatic situation, esp if one had to flee an abusive home situation. I can't WAIT for psychopaths and child abusers to get everything they got coming to them in the next world. I just hope I get to see it.

@77iam97 I'm really sorry to hear about this Garren. Try to stay strong. Where do you live?? Is your situation due to COVID?

@lemurianchick it's nice to be spiritual, and I have those beliefs too, but all those lofty thoughts don't mean squat when one is hungry and doesn't know where they're going to sleep tonight. Like it or not, tangible issues matter. We need to be a kinder more moral society, and we need and DESERVE more assistance and guarantees from the govt so that when the inevitable shit goes wrong as it USUALLY does sooner or later, people don't HAVE to end up hungry, destitute, and on the street.

@Qrec12 you're a good man. Thank you for your decency. The world is full of so much phylth and hate-filled slime, it's a relief to see good people still exist.
