slayer, you have no clue how bad the homeless issue is out here in the USA.
Hard to blame business owners for not wanting a homeless encampment in front of their door and pissing and shitting all over the place. The government and police do nothing to help so many business owners feel helpless and some take things into their own hands.Comment -
It depends. The guy spraying her says shes psychotic and the other owner says she is harmless. Unless he can prove she is doing something, its something he has to deal with living that hellhole city.Comment -
Get outta here you bum!

God Bless Man for Bathing this woman & quenching her thirstComment -
I disagree with this and I’m outraged. CLEARLY there wasn’t enough pressure on that hose to do the job properly.

"Unhoused".

As a foreigner visiting LA, it really is something we do not understand without experiencing it.
Pictures and words just do not get across what it is like in person.
That said, 99% of them were of no real bother. As a visitor.
Can't imagine how frustrating it would be to have them camped 3 feet from my door though..Comment -
I'm sure there is a backstory as to why he sprayed this person with a hose. Not the nicest thing to do but he is probably fed up to be losing business.
A lot of the homeless mind their own business but some get out of hand. Many are on drugs and do them out in the open, not a good look for a business or residential area.
I do feel sorry for a lot of these folks as many have mental/drug issues and the problem is beyond out of hand at this point.Comment -
stay in cali pleaseComment -
He isn't spraying her, he's motivating her.Comment -
I just spent a few minutes educating myself on the seemingly important distinction between unhoused and homeless. I followed it up with an extended facepalm and lengthy grimace.Comment -
1. Police officer came by for what? Possible charges? lol Spraying a woman using a hose is what kind of charge actually? Possible drowning? lol
2. Don't know if any of you owned a business? Business owner pays rent to a landlord.... sometimes business isn't so good here and there... no revenue. You get sick and tired of bums around the entrance to your business. Let's face it... when someone is right near your entrance... and you look like trash... sometimes people won't even go to look around... because of an intimidation factor... or just an unpleasant THING near your entrance. The business owner even said... police won't do anything to help the cause. Sure... just allow the woman to sit near my business. Yeah... it's ABSOLUTELY HARMLESS. Easy for them to say.... Does that lady pay his rent for him to the landlord?
Like I said... it all adds up to the business owner getting pissed off.... so he sprayed her with water. He's out of fukks to give. Blame it on the state... blame it on the county... then blame it on the city. I'm all for what the business owner did. It's annoying as fukk. I've lost my patience before with these bums everywhere. I told one bum one day... why must you do your "daily routine" in front of my business everyday? Go do it in front of someone else's business. I said... all you do is pester my potential customers... begging them for money every single day... hurting my revenue. Then I can't survive to pay my landlord... because customers won't come in to spend. It's a chain reaction... that construction dude (in that video clip) doesn't know sh## and that other a-hole doesn't know sh##.Comment -
Should not be happening these scenesComment -
I wondered what that fat phuck minny was up to since his departure.
he wouldn’t do this if they were trannys.
thanks for the update.Comment -
Now they are watering homeless in LA as well.

Hose all the homeless living on the streets in front of businesses I say!
Besides they all stink like shit and need a bath anyways.
Tent cities on city streets is an abomination. Businesses suffer and it's disgusting to walk by.

doesnt cali have some open land make a huge homeless city middle of no where and get them out of the cityComment -
Wow. Such a shame…..
It’s a pity how these human beings are treated by these lowlife scum…..
BTW, we’re coming up on the 1 year anniversary of the Super Bowl @ SoFi where they demolished all the ‘unhoused’ that were living around it, so folks like L.A. mayor Garcetti, S.F. mayor London Breed, & Gov. Newsom could party it up with ‘The Magic Man!’
{“They just came and cleaned us out, took everything,” she said. “I know, because of the Super Bowl, they just push us aside because we’re homeless. That ain’t right.”}
FAIL…..

I always said make being homeless in the city a crime with 30 days jail time. There is always a reason the homeless are homeless and it's one of these 3.
1) Drug or alcohol addiction.
2) Lazy and don't want to work.
3) Mentally ill and most likely from extended hard drug abuse over their life time.
Jail time to sober them up and mental health screening would be a good start. Work programs after the short jail time served would really be great. Any State money being spent on helping the homeless problem should be spent on that but it's not!
Everyone loves clean streets and we don't have them anymore because of the homeless and drug users.

Often hard to differentiate between the mentally ill and drug tourists who choose the street. Too bad there isn't a better way to coexist. Most every major US city isn't built to accommodate those individuals :shrug:Comment -
Very simple.
I know people that used either crack or meth for years and after being up for a few days they said they started hearing voices in their heads and or were extremely paranoid thinking the FBI was after them. They got sober years later and back to normal with no voices in their heads and no mental meds needed.
Still the medical field experts call this mental illness and or a disease which it is not!
NO THESE JUNKIES ARE GETTING HIGH CONSTANTLY, POOR DIET AND NO SLEEP AND LOSING THEIR MINDS! Just that simple!Comment -
cops should take this mans hose away and give him a bulldozerComment -
Homeless need to get the hose. Clean em up!

Amazing how clear the 2 opposite sides are, on this issue. Landlord rights vs. the need to care for the displaced.
SF used to be right up there with Paris and Venice, as one of the worlds most romantic cities. Now its a sewer. Drug needles, crap, and homeless. In 40 years some properties have increased 10x in value, or more. Blocking many from buying, in turn, increasing rents. Building tent cities, in outlying areas, was viewed as too extreme. So now, instead, some areas are spending 100's of dollars a night on hotels. Or buying hotels to use for homeless. Surprise, no pride of ownership, so many of the rooms were completely trashed.
In 1960 JFK pushed through legislation closing state mental hospitals, favoring local community mental health, outpatient (largely) facilities. Add the explosion of drugs and you have an extreme problem thats not going away. A problem with no easy answers.
Its why I turn to the mathematics of sports betting.Comment -
