      The problem with Venice Beach is people don’t think it’s cool anymore. People don’t think that San Diego to Pizmo beach is cool and people don’t think that Santa Cruz Northern California is cool those places are no longer cool the good part of California starts at about San Simeon and goes to the south end of the Monterey Bay that is the only part of California that’s worth even going to or seeing the rest just isn’t cool anymore

      The problem goes much deeper! Even the so called "normal", functioning middle-class has mental issues. Everyone wants to be someone, become rich and famous, chasing fictitious "dreams". I once visited friends in SFO and LAX and got a glimpse in their medicine cabinet. I was shocked what kind of drugs you could find there. Vasts amount of pharma poisons! So maybe one should not be so judgemental with the homeless. You could be next! They all once started from the same slate but work, society, marriage, stress, debt broke them over time... The whole society is mentally ill and does not work without drugs and alcohol in my point of view.

      They made sure that went away because the ultra Rich want to tear down the entire area and put in more of the glass mcmansions you see further south. Then you'll see the public beaches turned into what broad Beach is now which is billionaire beach. Try going there and parking anywhere near and try getting to the public beach. They destroyed it by bulldozing it into their backyards and then the ocean started encroaching mother nature knows. They put in these huge plastic bags full of sand trying to stop the erosion but the ocean took them all and ripped them to shreds. Now you find plastic all over the ocean bottom out there and the lobsters and other animals are eating them and dying. That and the oil debris from the drilling platforms further north and you can't sit down anywhere without sitting on globs of oil. It's a crying shame but these people are shameless.

      @@nancymiller7667 Hello ! The root problem is ignored by the politicians, because citizens tolerate it. There's a permanent housing shortage ,has been for 40 years, and most people don't know that apartments stopped getting built by 1980, and only commercial buildings, and luxury apartments, townhouses were built instead. Then, we had millions of people come into California,but no housing was created for this growing population. So rents shot up and stayed there. Add to this the American drug culture,which was around when I was a child in the 60's. The perfect storm for creating homelessness !! Until a massive building campaign is launched,the rents won't come down. You can't " arrest "your way out of this humanitarian crisis. Housing and rehabilitation is the only thing that can work. When I was growing up, there was simply no homeless, because of a great supply of housing stock!

      Then in ‘81 Reagan repealed a Mental Health act and all of this began. I remember going to the Camarillo State Mental Hospital as a field trip in 9th grade.
      Now I believe that it reopened several years ago as Channel Islands University. It had been shuttered for years after many of the patients were released.

No nothing like this.. just fkin happy music, such a beautiful day. They are finely bringing the kind wonderful sheriff and his gentlemen, to offer real safe clean housing and employment opportunity's to the able and treatment for the ill..lmfao! Germans framing of the issue is bull shit. This is why others are encouraged to film because they frame the issue correctly. Venice is in the public view, and the problem needs addressed at is cause that created all these homeless. The problem is what has made them homeless, and here's a hint, its not drugs its not craziness, that always was here and most of them use to be able to hold a job and afford the rent. The lower social class was never pretty but built your products. Your greed has created them and built China. German reflects the issue as, the only reason there are homeless, is their own personal irresponsibility that made them all homeless, and this is just not the case.

    Wow - Looks like the city is trying a fresh new wave of cleanup and that is good but you are absolutely right about the closed stores and lack of people down there - that is completely unsustainable because that area relied heavily on tourists to be viable and that's what looks like its missing is tourists. As someone who sees and films a lot of homelessness here in Denver I can relate to this a lot. You absolutely crush it on that Arnold voice! : D Great Stuff.

    Until the beaches are patrolled consistently and homeless camps kept in check the tourists and locals will not feel comfortable returning. They’ve made a good start, but it takes time to change behavior. Sincerely hope California gets it together. There are no simple one size fits all solution for the homeless issue. Be safe.

    You couldn't pay me to walk on that beach with anything less than steel toed boots. Imagine how many needles are in the sand combined with human shit. It's like a cat box except the cat is a heroin addict.

    GIV!!! I love to see your stuff, its honest. I grew up here, and relocated to the Midwest for college but still come visit family a couple times a year. My last visit was heartbreaking, socal & ca in general is a shell of its former self. I'm grateful to see that the residents of Venice are finally getting some relief because there is no recovery for the local tourist economy there with the homeless issue that was occurring there. I hope the land of dreams can recover, keep pressure on your local representatives to quit passing $h*t legislation.
