When your government has FAILED to address this homeless crisis and the people have to take matters into their own hands. Makes you wonder why the people needs those “officials” in office in the first place
That is the real debate currently. Is it the government's responsibility to fix this problem? Would more taxes and government spending "fix" or solve the homeless problem. Should it be fixed by state or local government. I promise voting red or blue will not make the problem go away because the problem (causes) of homelessness is more complex than one bad life choice or lazy and wants to love off of the government dime.

Have faith in JESUS CHRIST as LORD and SAVIOR for HE SAVES ❗️ *What is the Gospel?* The true gospel is the good news that God saves sinners. Man is by nature sinful and separated from God with no hope of remedying that situation. But God, by His power, provided the means of man’s redemption in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Savior, Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:8-9 For it is by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of GOD, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Romans 10:9 9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. JESUS CHRIST can come anytime! Just Believe ❤️ Love you and GOD BLESS
From Canada... I woke up one morning to find a homeless couple camping in my backyard. I told them they were welcome to stay as long as they kept everything clean. I gave them a gift card for $50 to Harvey's burgers. 6 days later they left leaving their tent,sleeping bags, old clothing and garbage all over the yard for me to clean up and take to the dump. They also stole an Amazon package that was delivered while I was at work. I was disappointed and felt really gullible! I won't bring myself to let this happen to me and my wife again. I did my part.
@@daneliec thanks Danelie. I'll probably help someone again if they come along. I'm a sucker for punishment! Lol Hopefully I will use better judgment next time.
I've lived in my apartment going on 7 years now and my rent was always a reasonable price that whole time... until now, my rent has almost DOUBLED in a matter of 1 year. I am now moving in june but it's not much better anywhere else... I have a feeling theirs going to be ALOT more homelessness coming and its scary
Democrats inflation policies everything gets driven up from gas to eggs to chicken to rent etc pretty much everything you need to live has had a minimum 5% increase 20% on the high side
Yeah me and my dad live in a small trailer together and the price has gone up so much in the few years we've lived here and it's just ridiculous because my dad has to work a lot of overtime just to be able to pay the bills (he never graduated highschool so he couldn't go to college and get a better job plus if he went to college I would've never been born lol)
Yes, I live in California. Thankfully, I have subsidized housing, I'm disabled. But if I paid for my 1 bedroom apartment. It'd be $2,250. My sister's rent went up to $3,100. For a 2 bedroom. That used to be a dang, mortgage payment. It's all about greed. It's very true, many people will be unhoused, cause everything is going up. Except, wages.😒
@@priscillafuentes8663 What city do you live in? I live in Ontario, CA by 6th and Grove. Our rent here is 2200 per month but we split it four ways with my sisters and mother. The house is called an apartment because the upper floor is also being rented by another family. It's a decent place but the area nearby is kind of ugly. A lot of homeless and drug addicts committing crimes.
Just make sure when you guys help people, your good intentions don't get abused. The way you know if your doing good, is that helping should make you feel good. If you feel pressured, or used or taken advantaged of, or scammed. Don't feel you NEED to help. On the other hand, if you were in their situation, think what you would want done to you.
@@queenofkings7453 maybe actually pay some bills and own a house then. Nobody should be on anybodys porch i would move if i seen that in the neighborhood god forbid it becomes a precedence
She’s a beautifully compassionate woman. We need more people like her to have the support from the community to do what they do best; kinda like a super hero, but without a cape.
"Homelessness is a real problem" here...here's a fine for helping the homeless...does anyone see the light yet? These politicians need to be removed from power...they represent theirselves and their own agendas not trying to help anyone
I like that she's willing to help but not everyone is so deserving to be treated with kindness. Some people will take advantage of that fact and exploit people. Just be aware that you should treat people with dignity and respect but don't let people or others put you in a unsafe position because it's the "nice" thing to do.
Yep I have offered many people begging jobs they didn't want them and I seen them the next day with that sign... I have realized most don't want the help. Watch the UA-cam documentary from the white underbelly about a girl named rose she used the interviewer when he wanted to help her and burned him for thousands and he rented a place for her also. A sucker is born every day.
@@alkdjfhgks1919 Your comment is exactly why I was shocked that the lady in the video did what she did. I wanted to make a comment of my own saying that I thought everyone in the comments would say what you said. Because just about everyone agrees with you. Even homeless people agree with you. I'm also shocked you're the first comment I saw so far say what you said on this video. By the way, people like you miss when the video said the homeless person got job interviews. Because you don't listen. You just want to say "They're lazy." Lets see how YOU fair when YOUR house burns down from a splatter of grease while cooking.
I hate that expression “a lil bit of compassion.” This isn’t a bit or a 2 day adventure for this woman. This is a friggen commitment that truly takes heart & hope. Not everyone can do that.
Exactly…….. they’ll probably end up living on her front porch like that for a few more years,……. This situation will end up being a whole project,……. This is not something that’s just a little helping hand…….
This woman is amazing. One thing to remember is that those who were in the house to begin with trust those.on the porch. This woman also felt comfortable and safe with them. It isn't always the case to be able to trust just anyone.
@@IslandBlaze8 Yes, the quote DOES make sense, even though the punctuation is off. Sometimes the things we want, don't happen which can be disappointing. We think it's because we've been wronged, but sometimes it is actually a blessing. For instance, maybe I really want to buy a particular house and don't get it. Then, a few weeks later I find an even better house. Or, maybe I don't get into a particular college I want to attend. But, I end up going to another one and meeting my spouse or learning about a particular field that catapults my career. So yes, that quote is very accurate.
Nope, I wouldn’t have strangers continue to live on the porch of the home I paid for with my family living there. They’d be leaving before I even started moving my things into the house.
It’s sad that this kind of response is considered “surprising”. I’m so glad she chose the compassionate route, and I wish her and that couple all of the best. 💜
Honestly. I know for sure , even letting them stay on the porch was a blessing as the homeless couple saw it. People have no idea what it's like finding a safe place on the street. They barely get any good sleep on the street for safety fear even if subconscious
i find it strange that we pay so much in taxes but nothing goes towards making cheap buildings for homeless people? a small shed doesnt even cost that much and even that is better than nothing
Kick em out. There is a law where when you allow them to live in or around your property they can technically live there by law and if you take it to court it might take years to none to win.
Ppl praising her for helping them but just the other day I read about girl helping homeless person and letting him in the house, later he killed her and all comments were saying it's the best to not help strangers.
Inviting homeless onto your property elevates your risk to a violent attack and theft. Imagine if this was your daughter or sister, would you advise her to do this? Imagine if this was your neighbor.
@@ladyriethegoldendelmo5441 A person can run across a busy street without looking and not get hit by a car but that doesn't make it safe. You do it often enough you will pay a big price for poor risk management.
This is so awesome!!!!! Hell yeah, lady!!! The homeless need more people on their side. How can anyone who literally has none of their basic needs met, be expected to climb out of the hole of poverty, illness (mental and physical), and discrimination. It’s nearly impossible without someone else to help. I watched my dad go from being a homeowner, the manager of a roofing supply sales company, and an overall great person, fall into the traps of mental illness combined with drugs and alcohol. He lost everything. He lost his job, home, all possessions, and his mind. Lived in a tent on the streets of San Diego for the last 15 years of his life, and ended up snuffing it by jumping off an overpass in El Cajon. I don’t wish that kind of pain on **anybody** he suffered for a long time, but now is at peace. RIP pops, sure do miss ya down here….
That is so nice of you. Sometimes s*** just happens. People can have a run of bad luck. It happened to me in March of this year my husband of 33 years died, the very same day the home that we rent was sold in a foreclosure auction and we, and I, got a 90 day notice. But I'm in the Bay area and I can't find a place. In 5 weeks I'm potentially going to be another one of the homeless out there. I'm up at 7:00 a.m. on Monday trying to make sure it doesn't happen but I don't think I have much control cuz no one wants to help or very few people almost no one. . . And only a ride here or there no actual help no one sitting down help me figure out what forms to fill out nothing like that... And everyone tells me I should want to keep living and I really don't. I'm going to end my life the very first day I'm homeless because there's no coming back for most and I'm shy and vulnerable and from a small town in New Hampshire I'm not going to make it on the street in San Francisco. Loss of dignity I don't even want to try.. I'll try everything I can to avoid it but if I can't it'll be the end and I'm sure I'll welcome that end by the time it comes because I have known no joy for many many years. I can't imagine ever feeling happy again...
They out in the extreme HEAT. ITS DEADLY. I LIVE IN DETROIT. Been homeless of and on for past 20 years. Mental health and addiction. It gets BELOW ZERO DEGREES FARENHEIT in the winter. EXTREME COLD. ITS DEADLY. We need a better answer. This lady is awesome. Empathetic and went way above her duty. Thank you sweety for helping these folks.
She's literally the perfect person for this to have happened to. And during a time when a person merely existing outside of the financial system is a criminal act. Either we regulate the economy, or we let people eek out their existence however they can. This should not be happening.
Who tf has the audacity to just set up a tent in front of someone’s house and start living there. And why is she being celebrated for letting them stay?
Good job, everyone! This is what happens when compassion takes the lead and ego takes a backseat. So very happy that the homeless couple is being presented with opportunities to possibly change their circumstances. The homeowner is someone who is part of the solution rather than adding to the problem. How harmonious and very refreshing! ! ! Love in action.
Dystopian story reframed as feel good. City should have put them up in a shelter. Not the responsibility of the homeowner to accommodate them. In this country, we have the resources to aid the homeless and we should.
I am currently in a similar situation. One of my neighbors introduced me to a man who was homeless and he was looking for handyman work. He is an electrician by trade. I had some work I needed done on my house and while he was working he asked if he could store his tools in my shed. He had been living at the park for about a year and carried his tools around in a cart. I said yes of course. I even said he could stay in the shed if he wanted to while he worked. It doesn't have running water but it is insulated and has power. He has been living in the shed now for about 3 years and he maintains my yard and does odds and ends stuff around my property in exchange for a place to stay. It really doesn't take much effort to be kind.
Years ago, my child with Autism and I were kicked out onto the street. I was not a citizen at the time and could not legally work. I did not have 1 penny to my name, despite me being straight A student in my country. It took 1 person to save our lives, literally ! It is still hard at times but most certainly, kindness is what makes us human.
Good intentions but as someone who deals with the homeless daily, being nice to one, more will come and expect to be treated the same and will get violent if not.

God bless you as well
Anyone remember the Utah woman who let a homeless person use her shower and he slit her throat and stabbed her?? If you going to do things like this, BE CAREFUL!!
Remember all the women who’ve been murdered by their husbands/boyfriends?? If you going to date, BE CAREFUL!!

Absolutely. Some people suffer from severe untreated mental health issues.

Have faith in JESUS CHRIST as LORD and SAVIOR for HE SAVES ❗️
*What is the Gospel?*
The true gospel is the good news that God saves sinners. Man is by nature sinful and separated from God with no hope of remedying that situation. But God, by His power, provided the means of man’s redemption in the death, burial, and resurrection of the Savior, Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 2:8-9
For it is by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of GOD, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.
Romans 10:9
9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
JESUS CHRIST can come anytime!
Just Believe ❤️ Love you and GOD BLESS

I think she'd reject a medal. It would be nice if they just were able to get all the homeless people on their feet. That's a good "reward"
I could never do this. I've housed a homeless person and in the beginning it was a blessing and then to a total nightmare.
From Canada... I woke up one morning to find a homeless couple camping in my backyard. I told them they were welcome to stay as long as they kept everything clean. I gave them a gift card for $50 to Harvey's burgers.
6 days later they left leaving their tent,sleeping bags, old clothing and garbage all over the yard for me to clean up and take to the dump. They also stole an Amazon package that was delivered while I was at work.
I was disappointed and felt really gullible!
I won't bring myself to let this happen to me and my wife again. I did my part.

I’m so sorry that happened to you, it’s sad when people take advantage of kindness
@@daneliec thanks Danelie.
I'll probably help someone again if they come along. I'm a sucker for punishment! Lol
Hopefully I will use better judgment next time.
Build a tiny house in the backyard and lease it out to them once they get a job and help them feel like human beings again.
Good going Liza…the world needs more people like you
Where do you live? I need a place.
I've lived in my apartment going on 7 years now and my rent was always a reasonable price that whole time... until now, my rent has almost DOUBLED in a matter of 1 year. I am now moving in june but it's not much better anywhere else... I have a feeling theirs going to be ALOT more homelessness coming and its scary
Democrats inflation policies everything gets driven up from gas to eggs to chicken to rent etc pretty much everything you need to live has had a minimum 5% increase 20% on the high side
Yeah me and my dad live in a small trailer together and the price has gone up so much in the few years we've lived here and it's just ridiculous because my dad has to work a lot of overtime just to be able to pay the bills (he never graduated highschool so he couldn't go to college and get a better job plus if he went to college I would've never been born lol)
Yes, I live in California. Thankfully, I have subsidized housing, I'm disabled. But if I paid for my 1 bedroom apartment. It'd be $2,250. My sister's rent went up to $3,100. For a 2 bedroom. That used to be a dang, mortgage payment. It's all about greed. It's very true, many people will be unhoused, cause everything is going up. Except, wages.😒
You can live with me for the low price of (minding your own business and 600$ monthly)
@@priscillafuentes8663 What city do you live in? I live in Ontario, CA by 6th and Grove. Our rent here is 2200 per month but we split it four ways with my sisters and mother. The house is called an apartment because the upper floor is also being rented by another family. It's a decent place but the area nearby is kind of ugly. A lot of homeless and drug addicts committing crimes.
Respect to the lady from Ireland.
Sure she's nice. Just don't be surprised when something bad happens
Exactly!!!! Being “nice” is never a good trait to have. People will take advantage of you.
Just make sure when you guys help people, your good intentions don't get abused.
The way you know if your doing good, is that helping should make you feel good. If you feel pressured, or used or taken advantaged of, or scammed. Don't feel you NEED to help. On the other hand, if you were in their situation, think what you would want done to you.
That is oni beautiful soul. Have this lady on your side
I love her for this! She is such an intelligent, compassionate, strategic woman! If there's a heaven, she's probably earned her spot.
That’s very dangerous for the homeowners. Why didn’t previous owner let them live in the house?
Or current owner? I mean yes, it’s nice to let them live on the porch, but it would be great for them to live inside!
@@queenofkings7453 maybe actually pay some bills and own a house then. Nobody should be on anybodys porch i would move if i seen that in the neighborhood god forbid it becomes a precedence

Great girl for been helpful
She’s a beautifully compassionate woman. We need more people like her to have the support from the community to do what they do best; kinda like a super hero, but without a cape.
How about screening in the front porch?
Wait until the house gets broken into. Let's see how friendly she'll be.
Until they sue her and say they should be considered tenants and then she can’t kick them out
this homeless situation is horrific. its disgusting seeing all these tents all over the place. one of the main reasons i left LA
Same.
Compassion goes a long way. No one wants to be homeless. Sometimes things happen in life
Its happening everywhere not just in LA and if you find it so disgusting then why not help the homeless???

"Homelessness is a real problem" here...here's a fine for helping the homeless...does anyone see the light yet? These politicians need to be removed from power...they represent theirselves and their own agendas not trying to help anyone
Such a kind person but remember being too kind can also get you trouble nowadays. People can just stab you in the back when they see such opportunity
I like that she's willing to help but not everyone is so deserving to be treated with kindness. Some people will take advantage of that fact and exploit people. Just be aware that you should treat people with dignity and respect but don't let people or others put you in a unsafe position because it's the "nice" thing to do.
Exactly I’m not helping grown @$$ bums!
Excellent observation & comment!
Yep. If you’re not careful, there’s a thin line between kindness and naivety.
Yep I have offered many people begging jobs they didn't want them and I seen them the next day with that sign... I have realized most don't want the help. Watch the UA-cam documentary from the white underbelly about a girl named rose she used the interviewer when he wanted to help her and burned him for thousands and he rented a place for her also. A sucker is born every day.
@@august21xp wild way of phrasing that but I agree 😂

I hate that expression “a lil bit of compassion.” This isn’t a bit or a 2 day adventure for this woman. This is a friggen commitment that truly takes heart & hope. Not everyone can do that.
Exactly…….. they’ll probably end up living on her front porch like that for a few more years,……. This situation will end up being a whole project,……. This is not something that’s just a little helping hand…….
This woman is amazing. One thing to remember is that those who were in the house to begin with trust those.on the porch. This woman also felt comfortable and safe with them. It isn't always the case to be able to trust just anyone.
That's a big thing. Kind of like having references.
This has danger written all over it
Wonderful Lady
Marvellous Lady
Wish everyone was like this Lady
No good deed goes unpunished!! This will end horribly bad.
Bingo!
In six months the homeless couple will have moved into her house, changed the locks and taken her to court three times!
:0
And have squatters rights to continue to legally stay on her property too…..
WAIT…so you mean helping someone and having just a little empathy and compassion can actually help others? What an amazing concept!
Would I have let them stay there? It's a mute point. I would have never bought a house there in there first place.
Sometimes life doesn't give you what you want,not because you don"t deserve it but because you deserve much more. I’m telling you keep grinding!🤞🏽❤️🔥

It makes perfect sense.
@@catherinemartinez5542 you need to evaluate your English then.
@@IslandBlaze8 Yes, the quote DOES make sense, even though the punctuation is off. Sometimes the things we want, don't happen which can be disappointing. We think it's because we've been wronged, but sometimes it is actually a blessing. For instance, maybe I really want to buy a particular house and don't get it. Then, a few weeks later I find an even better house. Or, maybe I don't get into a particular college I want to attend. But, I end up going to another one and meeting my spouse or learning about a particular field that catapults my career. So yes, that quote is very accurate.
Breaking news - Lady murdered by homeless couple living on porch.
The longer they stay there, the stronger their claim to 'right of way', you won't be able to get rid of them even if you wanted, PHD student!
Nope, I wouldn’t have strangers continue to live on the porch of the home I paid for with my family living there. They’d be leaving before I even started moving my things into the house.
Richest country on Earth, people still homeless on the streets.
Wow, that’s bizarre.
It’s sad that this kind of response is considered “surprising”. I’m so glad she chose the compassionate route, and I wish her and that couple all of the best. 💜

@@hmp5718 how do you know
It's nice to see people like this in a world still exist. But remember we still got to be careful because people tend to bite the hand that feeds.
Honestly. I know for sure , even letting them stay on the porch was a blessing as the homeless couple saw it. People have no idea what it's like finding a safe place on the street. They barely get any good sleep on the street for safety fear even if subconscious
i find it strange that we pay so much in taxes but nothing goes towards making cheap buildings for homeless people? a small shed doesnt even cost that much and even that is better than nothing
Many communities divert tax dollars to homeless shelters of various types. If your community doesn’t do this, I hope you will speak out.
Kick em out. There is a law where when you allow them to live in or around your property they can technically live there by law and if you take it to court it might take years to none to win.
Exactly,……. Squatters rights……
Ppl praising her for helping them but just the other day I read about girl helping homeless person and letting him in the house, later he killed her and all comments were saying it's the best to not help strangers.
How about we start removing seats and filling them with people like her to be in charge of America
You should move to San Francisco. You would love it.

Thank ( GOD) FOR THIS LADY
She's a smart woman.
I still would have kicked them out though.
Would be a “shame” if something really bad happened..
Inviting homeless onto your property elevates your risk to a violent attack and theft.
Imagine if this was your daughter or sister, would you advise her to do this?
Imagine if this was your neighbor.
True just the other day woman lost her life bc she helped homeless man.
if that were the case then they would kick them out and call police. but this isnt the case so?
@@ladyriethegoldendelmo5441 A person can run across a busy street without looking and not get hit by a car but that doesn't make it safe. You do it often enough you will pay a big price for poor risk management.

@@killjoym6973 nice anecdote
Ridiculous. Companionate porches? Really?
Our society has gone nuts
This is so awesome!!!!! Hell yeah, lady!!! The homeless need more people on their side. How can anyone who literally has none of their basic needs met, be expected to climb out of the hole of poverty, illness (mental and physical), and discrimination. It’s nearly impossible without someone else to help. I watched my dad go from being a homeowner, the manager of a roofing supply sales company, and an overall great person, fall into the traps of mental illness combined with drugs and alcohol. He lost everything. He lost his job, home, all possessions, and his mind. Lived in a tent on the streets of San Diego for the last 15 years of his life, and ended up snuffing it by jumping off an overpass in El Cajon. I don’t wish that kind of pain on **anybody** he suffered for a long time, but now is at peace. RIP pops, sure do miss ya down here….
That is so nice of you. Sometimes s*** just happens. People can have a run of bad luck. It happened to me in March of this year my husband of 33 years died, the very same day the home that we rent was sold in a foreclosure auction and we, and I, got a 90 day notice. But I'm in the Bay area and I can't find a place. In 5 weeks I'm potentially going to be another one of the homeless out there. I'm up at 7:00 a.m. on Monday trying to make sure it doesn't happen but I don't think I have much control cuz no one wants to help or very few people almost no one. . . And only a ride here or there no actual help no one sitting down help me figure out what forms to fill out nothing like that... And everyone tells me I should want to keep living and I really don't. I'm going to end my life the very first day I'm homeless because there's no coming back for most and I'm shy and vulnerable and from a small town in New Hampshire I'm not going to make it on the street in San Francisco. Loss of dignity I don't even want to try.. I'll try everything I can to avoid it but if I can't it'll be the end and I'm sure I'll welcome that end by the time it comes because I have known no joy for many many years. I can't imagine ever feeling happy again...

I have to give this woman a lot of credit. most people would have made them leave. more power to her and we need more people like her.
She's literally the perfect person for this to have happened to. And during a time when a person merely existing outside of the financial system is a criminal act. Either we regulate the economy, or we let people eek out their existence however they can. This should not be happening.
Seek to understand rather than rush judgement. We need more stories like this.

Who tf has the audacity to just set up a tent in front of someone’s house and start living there. And why is she being celebrated for letting them stay?
exactly!! my ass would grab the water hose
Good job, everyone! This is what happens when compassion takes the lead and ego takes a backseat. So very happy that the homeless couple is being presented with opportunities to possibly change their circumstances. The homeowner is someone who is part of the solution rather than adding to the problem. How harmonious and very refreshing! ! ! Love in action.
Dystopian story reframed as feel good. City should have put them up in a shelter. Not the responsibility of the homeowner to accommodate them. In this country, we have the resources to aid the homeless and we should.
An “unhoused” couple. That’s not even a word. My phone struggled to form that into a word…why make it all cushy? Call it what it is. Homeless.
Isn't she running risk of squatters gaining legal hold on property. Simply due of repeat squatting and non demand of vacating?
Dangerous
next week's headline:
Woman stabbed by homeless couple who lived on her porch
I am currently in a similar situation. One of my neighbors introduced me to a man who was homeless and he was looking for handyman work. He is an electrician by trade. I had some work I needed done on my house and while he was working he asked if he could store his tools in my shed. He had been living at the park for about a year and carried his tools around in a cart. I said yes of course. I even said he could stay in the shed if he wanted to while he worked. It doesn't have running water but it is insulated and has power. He has been living in the shed now for about 3 years and he maintains my yard and does odds and ends stuff around my property in exchange for a place to stay. It really doesn't take much effort to be kind.
Wow you’re wonderful
This is so awesome . Thank you for being so kind.
Years ago, my child with Autism and I were kicked out onto the street. I was not a citizen at the time and could not legally work. I did not have 1 penny to my name, despite me being straight A student in my country. It took 1 person to save our lives, literally !
