People Without Housing and the Mecca of Bodybuilding

[mryorkielover]

Sad situation surrounding Golds Gym, Venice, Santa Monica and Los Angeles. What do you think the solutions could be for this problem?

California is a place where people are leaving by the hundreds everyday. Unfortunately, they are coming to Arizona and screwing it up. Hopefully, we can prevent that.

There is no excuse for living on the sidewalks, beaches, and empty lots. See "Soylent Green".

1) Make it illegal to put a tent on public property. It used to be. Enforce
2) Create work farms where you get a place to stay by working for the government. There are lots of things need doing.
3) If they can't function because of drugs or mental illness, bring back institutions where they are housed and given therapy.


We pay for all this shit one way or the other.

                                       I agree with this 100 percent. but they keep tearing down places that used to serve these purposes.

Good points especially the last one. Since we pay for it as a society, maybe some real change can be made that helps everyone.

They can stop allowing tons of illegals in and setting them (illegals) up with housing, for a start?

Work camps where shelter and food are provided in return for work

The bums love being bums.

Stimulus checks and gov benefits with zero overheard. They do meth and fuck she bums all day. A lot of them actually bathe regularly and don’t even look all that homeless.

[ThisisOverload]

You can't force them to do anything.  I agree there should be places to take them in, but most of them would not go there anyway, most of them chose to live this way.

Pack them on a boat and ship them to Africa as an "exchange" program.

Give them some of our white privilege's.

[Fortress]

Just “disappear” them, in whatever way is most efficient and without burden.

The left constantly wants to save these souls. But like ending racism, it ain’t happening.

It’s like repeat offenders crowding every jail and prison the world over. They’ll NEVER be anything but a massive, and destructive, drain to society.

“Solve” the problem before it solves us.

It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3 …

HaHa we so agree

[Tapeworm]

If you lived there, and had paid out the kind of money required to live on the Cali beachfront, and now everything smells like piss and your kids can't go outside... a Brazilian/South African-style solution would be looking pretty good.

If LE can't solve it, Dirty Deeds Private Security will. Someone is going to make top dollar with a squad dressed up homeless and cracking skulls. I don't forsee the rich tolerating this forever.

I was picturing more Kreuger from Elysium.

Problem with mercenaries is that they really like money and it takes them about 3 seconds to realize that they have you by the balls.

Easy solution.  Don't allow these folks to camp out.

Stop enabling them.

Take a front loader out there and scoop up their crap and trash it.

I didn't watch it, but by the actual definition, he is. That said, all bums should be put in work camps for two years where they learn a trade. They will be housed during this time, paid for by the government. The last six months will be spent actively looking for employment. Once they leave, they will have learned a trade, and will be productive. There will be a three strikes rule where once they fail the program three times, they will be euthanized and their organs given to needy people on transplant waiting lists.

People like AOC, Biden, Harris, DeBlasio, Cuomo, Omar, et al love the squalor and filth.   They want us to be Cuba.

Perhaps instead of being angry and mad at others for being less fortunate we should have some empathy. You guys act like low wages and lack of affordable housing don't contribute to this.

Dont forget mental illness Bhank.

This pretty much tells me you know jack shit about the actual homeless population. I've spent a fair amount of time volunteering to help out, both in South Carolina and in upstate NY.  The number one issue is mental illness, followed by drug use, and way, way way down the list is "affordable housing and low wages". In fact that is not even on the radar.


Go make up some other shit instead, like how your resting pulse is always 100, lol

[Rambone]

What would you say to people who say, ‘the dream is over, man… you’re 50 years old’? They are the ones that are short sighted.  Now, in 6 months I could still be in the van, but if I can out lift everybody, out squat everybody, out bench ‘em… who’s the king? Guys like you and me can fulfill our dreams...

Invite a handful of them to share your house.

Do you part man, don't just sit on the sidelines.

You have plenty of food to share.

Stop being so selfish.

Leave Charles Glass out of this.

Enforce the laws that prohibit people from living on the street.
Enforce the drug laws that prohibit people from being junkie losers content to live on the street and do drugs.
Put crazy people in mental institutions.
Fix the economy by abolishing the fiat money scam that has hollowed out the middle class and transformed the United States from an industrial powerhouse to a bullshit service circlejerk that produces nothing but money with which the rest of the world is indebted. This would also fix the housing market in places like California, which are inflated beyond recognition with unlimited fake money.

With decent jobs and affordable houses and strong disincentives to live on the street or do drugs, people will not likely live on the street.
