I have helped many of them with food and water, buying them meals, haircuts to giving thousands of my hard earned money to help whenever I can. Scorn, I would never do! Perhaps your speaking of your own conscious for not doing a thing but slamming people who make kind comments about people in this horrific situation. You need a reality check.

      Betty Harrison What an ugly act, taking my kindness, my feelings and turning them into something hateful. You know NOTHING about me. I go into homeless camps, and bring them what I can to help them. I sit and listen to them. Really, they just want people to see them as human beings. I don’t have a lot of money myself, but I give what I can. And really, the greatest gift you can give a person is kindness.... please think before you start spewing hate. There’s already too much of it in this world.

Whatever got them there, it is obvious that any help available, is not reaching the masses, and therefore keeping them destitute & without shelter. This epidemic is not privy to the US alone.

      tim mc yes, you hit the nail on the head! There’s a silent but very virulent movement to “get rid of undesirables” in this nation. There’s an absolute war on the homeless and also a thinning down of the lower socioeconomic class. At the same time minimizing the middle class to lower income by making it harder to stay in that income bracket. Big business and the government are in this together. I’m sure if they could get away with something more drastic and inhumane that they would certainly do so!

    I live in Toronto and since I was a child I've been told, by my single mom of 3, that homeless people are just like us. (We were getting our groceries from food banks and churches. Sometimes I would steal food at 8 years old for us, I would put packs of chicken in my backpack and then buy a chocolate bar). We would stop and give products and talk to the homeless, even though we didnt have much. 20 years later my family is secure but I still feel what these homeless people feel. My mom and I now volunteer constantly to give back, boxing at food banks, serving food at the shelter, donating clothes directly to homeless and every Christmas we raise money to get hundreds of gloves, socks, hats etc. The smallest thing makes the largest difference. I found your channel a couple months ago and been making more of an effort to have a conversation. Last week I met Ricardo, he was a vet, we talked for 20 mins. I gave him whatever i could from my purse (gum, kleenex packages, some change and tampons for his girlfriend) . Thank you for doing what you do.

    I almost became homeless 3 years ago. Fled an abusive family, moved, ended up long-term unemployed with no income. I was middle class and hit extreme poverty until I found a downwards mobility, poverty wage job. I’m not uneducated, I speak 2 languages, and I don’t consider myself dumb but I am working poor. This lady is a champion for the poor! Of course, there’s a war on those in need all over this nation. All this revitalization but those most in need are being pushed out. Greed and corruption abounds this nation! Empathy is something people need to relearn these days. If you’ve been blessed enough to never endure hardship in life, consider yourself lucky! We can all do better as a nation to help those most in need. As a nation we’re rich in money but extremely poor in compassion, understanding, and empathy. We’re morally bankrupt in this nation and greedy. There are plenty of employed people who have massive addictions, the only thing that makes them different from the poor, money! When money is worshipped as God, we are all in for a rude awakening!

      Yes,very true the only difference is that the rich have money to cover the fact that they have many addictions! They can keep themselves up with healthy food, nice clothes ,hygiene,good rest and what not !...They spend as much as they want selfishly without no guilt or interruptions! ...Not that they don't work for what they need but what they want is the problem ! It is written, we are not our own and bought with a price ! The blessed materialistically should be a reflection of Jesus to those that are lost and or suffering ! It's deeper then believing and confessing he is Lord !...To believe is to also believe everything written!( his doctrine)The Lord requires us to do his will here as it is in heaven,we have to do the works of Jesus ! The selfish/evil rich( not all that are rich) continue with no fear,no fear not even of god,because the reality is in their minds their money is their god ! When money becomes a god to a people,they have no need to pray or to really "know"the true god our creator Jesus Christ,! In their minds money is the answer to all things and nothing else. ....They have nothing lacking materialistically but infact are uncompassionate,unmerciful,hypocritical, judgmental,in other words poor in spirit !

      EXACTLY. IF you're lucky enough to have a spot a a shelter or to have a shower much less to properly store your meager possessions be able to be clean And wear clean clothes...let's take about using a bathroom. Especially with businesses clothes even when open, they see even a clean cut homeless person and are rude or call the cops...it's wrong. Let's not forget as a female when it's that time of the month. Not only needing hygiene products but being able to get to a bathroom and shower even half the AMT time people get use who have a home
      I promise every little detail done for homeless is appreciated beyond belief. All things ppl take for granted one doesn't take for granted. Waking up another day. Waking up without being assisted or murdered or raped or messed with by cops or ppl.
      Shelters also rise you up n out at 530 am with only a sink and toilets available no showers or towels and even if you have somewhere open they don't welcome the ppl from the shelters as they are close by even if they buy food or something they make them leave

      Tell the solution, please! It’s easy to point out problems but it’s the solution we really need to hear. It’s easy to say to just give them housing but that doesn’t work as many/most have mental health issues. Many states have tried everything you can think of and it just doesn’t work. Look at LA, they gave everyone a place and it’s worse now than ever. Someone has to pay for all of this.. if you live in California you’re lucky to keep 48% of your paycheck already, trying to pay for this. You have to make $100k a year here to live worse off than a homeless person that is being helped by the state. Please, tell us the solution! Please!
