Неужели непонятно откуда взялся наркотический кризис в Америке ? Первая причина - это глобализация . Позакрывалось большинство заводов и фабрик , производство было перенесено в страны 3- го мира . Появились миллионы людей с уймой свободного времени и без работы . Многие потенциальные работяги вступили в банды , занялись сбытом наркоты , ну и клиентура росла как на дрожжах , люди не нашли себя и ушли в наркотический штопор . Вторая причина- политика , разобщенными торчками легче управлять и навязывать им альтернативную реальность , BLM , LGBT и подобная херь ! Ну и третья причина - Голливуд .Редко встретишь сейчас фильм без неприкрытой пропаганды наркотиков . Но это тоже скорее к политике больше относится .Все знают о повестке спускаемой кинематографу сверху . А над всем этим ЖАДНОСТЬ !Политиков , бизнесменов , картелей , фармакологов . И всей прогнившей насквозь системы .

Lol the govt and the front ppl selected by the ągęncy in the US and every other country have no power, and it’s the ągęncy that has the power that decides everything and owns everything at the moment, and this is another tęst by the ągęncy, tęsting various things and ppl’s reactions to them, and they have all sorts of other tęsts as well, in each region from each country, so a different ągęnt is tęsted on each region!
Still, I feel bad for the pure birds and nature and dogs etc who get contaminated with ppl’s yuęknes and with the used neędles and other used things they þrow down on the streets and sidewalks - they shouldn’t let anyone þrow anything on the streets or in nature etc or disrespect the nature by using nature as a 🚽 ugh, it’s so męssed up, the streets / city / nature should be purified and washed, and properly guarded 24/7, so that ppl cannot þrow anything down on the streets or disrespect nature in any other way, and they shouldn’t let anyone do anything that’s not right / anything ßíņfęl and ensure that there’s a distance between all ppl at all times, so it should be free of ßíņrs, and they should put the rest of those ppl that are more normal and are only bęgging in an abandoned hotel or abandoned building (only one room per hum’n and only one hum’n per room) with functional bathroom, and each floor guarded 24/7, to get them off the streets, so that the streets can be plastic-free / neędle-free etc!

The city doesn't want to pay for it, the government doesn't want to nor do the citizens. So we're right back where we started.
Very well said, and I can feel your frustration through your comment! I agree, moving people on and cleaning the streets is the easy part. Keeping them away and getting them well…. That’s going to be a huge challenge! Addiction isn’t just about the drugs, as you said, it’s a multi layered insidious disease that affects the mind, body and soul and distorts rational thinking! Nothing I’ve seen or heard about the blitz on Kensington Avenue addressed those issues! So for me, it came down to Mayor Parker keeping an election promise to shut down the open air drug market, getting the addicts off the streets and cleaning the place up!!!! What was actually achieved was, the open air drug market was sent underground!!! The addicts moved two blocks down and one block over because that’s where the dealers said they would be! Oh, and the streets were washed and sanitised! Go Mayor Parker…… that’s a bit mean, she’s actually done more in past 130 of power than previous mayor’s have done for many years! I’ve heard reports she has put together a rehabilitation super centre to help treat as many of these as possible in a 30 day treatment program for those who want help. I believe 39 addicts took advantage of the offer during the cleanup! Unfortunately some were also arrested! Like you said, what’s this actually achieved! Without ongoing support and outpatient care upon discharge or release, they will be straight back on the streets starting the process again! The whole process is fundamentally flawed! Key issues aren’t being addressed as you mentioned and the shit show will continue….
I understand your frustration and you make some valid points, but we must be realistic in our expectations regarding Kensington Avenue and its future! As you know, addiction is a social issue, you can’t stop people from doing dumb shit. Whether it’s tobacco, alcohol, gambling or drugs, if we want to participate in there use, we will and no one can stop us! History shows the these 4 social issues have plagued society for thousands of years and nothing will change that! So as you can appreciate, the task ahead of Mayor Parker is a monstrous one and it will take many months if not years for any meaningful results to be achieved! I think that’s being realistic! Like you, I thought the clean up was a waste of time and taxpayer dollars but I’ve come to realise two very important things happened that day. Firstly, she had the place cleaned up because she promised the community she would! Second, and most importantly she had the encampments uprooted and the addicts dispersed around the corner and surrounded streets! She has coped a hammering for this on social media but there is method in the madness! In previous administrations, the DA, Larry Krasner decided that arresting drug addicts had no value and only clogged up the prison system! This basically tied law enforcement hands and allowed the open air drug maker to thrive and the addicts do as the like! Mayor Parker, on the other hand, has a totally different attitude! Now Kensington Avenue is barricaded off and the addict have been dispersed, they are now being constantly harassed and told to move on, if they don’t comply, they are arrested! This is the key to Mayor Parker’s strategy to clean up and manage Philadelphias drug issues! Once they are arrested, they are offered a choice between 30 days in rehab or 30 days in jail! The people who choose rehab are sent to the rehabilitation super centre which Parker has established on the other side of town. There they receive treatment and support to help them tap into all the government services available, mental health services, counselling, clinical care services, education services even housing support! Like you said, addiction is a serious multi faceted disease and rehabilitation must be holistic, focused on the mind, body and soul, and the individual needs of the patient! To be honest, I think Parker is shacking the system to the core! As for the addicts who choose prison, they receive in house rehab care! Upon discharge or release, both parties are given the opportunity to continue their journey to recovery! There is outpatient care, mental health support and social support, everything they need to change their lives if they want it bad enough! As for the people who choose to return to the streets, they fall back into the cycle of, loiter, arrest, rehab or jail and release. Over time the Groundhog Day cycle begins to overwhelm the individual and for some, better choices are made! This system is gaining traction in many cities around the world and the results are encouraging!! This certainly isn’t a silver bullet to solve the drug crisis in the US, nothing will. But it could be a step in the right direction! As for those who have chosen to stay in the lifestyle they have grown accustomed to…… I think in the very near future, our government will take a more authoritarian approach to managing the issue! Laws will change, rights and freedoms will be removed for the safety of the individual and the community, and we will see the return of long term assisted care in treatment sanitariums. I don’t condone this outcome, but it does have merit! Many addicts with advanced drug dependence fall into the special needs category. The likelihood of them ever recovering is low. Their cognitive impairment is usually significantly and they exhibit limited fine and gross motor function! Many of them would have also lost basic life skills like personal hygiene and social interaction. Leaving these people on the streets to meet their demise is not humane.
@@_Miss_K_ To say addiction is by choice over simplifies the disease. No on wakes up one day and says, hey I’m going to be a drug addict, that is simply nonsense! Addiction is an insidious disease that affects the mind, body and soul of someone. It alters reality and how we perceive ourselves and others around us! It prays on the vulnerable and their emotions and comforts them with a blanket of false hope, it is ruthless! It has many layers and every time one is pealed off, there is just another ugly layer underneath! I agree, choice plays its role in addiction but clinically research shows its part can be small! The bigger role that needs to be addressed is the why…. What was the catalyst for the addiction! For many young people, peer pressure, their home environment, mental health, physical and emotional trauma, abuse of the worst kind, exposure to drugs, proscription or illicit etc,one or all of these factors can contribute to addiction! As an example, peer pressure can be a major contributing factor to addiction! Experimentation and recreational drug use with friends, sharing a joint with friends, taking a pill or two at a dance party, can quickly become a habit! Exposure to drugs can also be another gateway to drug use and addiction! Multi generational drug use where patients and relatives expose their children to drugs ate a young age. Mum and dad do it, so can I. Then we can look at the effects of physical, emotional and psychological trauma. The effects of this can be devastating to a person of any age and for some, they will carry the scars for their lifetime! You could say that everyone has some sort of trauma through their lives or they’ve suffered abuse and got over it, and that’s very true! They can process it, or seek professional help, or just lock it away. They can then pick themselves up, dust themselves off and move on as if nothing happened! But unfortunately for some, they can’t. They will fall in a spiral of despair, depression, anxiety, self blame, anger, and self loathing etc. They may seek help, but when the treatment program concludes they’re addicted to the drugs that helped them cope. As results, they will turn to street drugs and self medicate! I read and hear the same stories over and over and over again, and they all have a common thread, they are unable or unwilling to deal with the trauma they have experienced and find peace and comfort in their own way! In a recent case study I read, a mother who was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and addicted to heroin and cocaine, sold her 12 year old daughter to her pimp for 4 bags of dope and some pills! The pimp then prostituted the 12 year old girl (high on meth) out to MEN for 2 years until she fell pregnant at age 14 to the pimp him self! 6 weeks after the birth of her child, she was returned to the streets and continued working for her pimp! 6 months later she was arrested and placed in custody for 2 years! The baby was left in the care of the father (the pimp.) At 17, she was released and returned to the streets and the father and child were gone. Now in her 30’s she still works the streets she did as children, but on her own! She has no idea who has, or what happened to child and she is emotionally, mentally and physically broken! There is a lot more to this case study than I have mentioned but it gives you an idea of the level of trauma and its associated effects on the individual! This particular case continues to haunt me, and I find it very difficult to comprehend and consider a satisfactory conclusion about addiction being a choice. Yes, there were bad choices made but they were driven by individual circumstances. I look forward to your response!
@@_Miss_K_ I agree with you to a point, taking drugs is a choice but for some, that choice is removed. Multi generational addiction, where children are exposed to drug use from a very young age! Where peer pressure is involved at a young age to experiment with drugs! When a mother use drugs during pregnancy and the baby is born addicted to drugs! Do these children have a choice or is the choice made for them??
I watched this and other videos as people just walked by and looked at the homeless people with disgust. You can't just blame the city.

I am Japanese and cannot speak English at all. In Japan, I have no experience to see homeless people at all in daily life。 In 2023、Japanese population was 124,000,000 and the number of homeless people was 3,065 from Hokkido to Okinawa(Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare) After seeing this UA-cam, I became tearful and could not sleep at night. In this UA-cam, I imagine every homeless person’s character is good and gentle. I want to invite one of them to my small Japanese house. People are sitting on the road and some of them sleep deeply even during the daytime after getting many drugs. As one of the Japanese, I wonder why many American people became like this homeless. The reason is very simple. Everybody living in this world always fights many different kinds of problems. At that time, if there were some good social systems to support suffering people, people would not depend on drugs. I am very ugly in the US Politicians especially Mr.Biden and Mr.Trump .The two gentlemen can be seen on CNN many times, but, always talk about the US being great again and supporting Israel's killing Palestinian babies, children, and women 32,070 and never talk about the miserable lovely homeless people in Kensington at all. The number of people killed by guns in the USA in 2022 is 44,357(by Gun Violence Archive). The number of people killed by guns in Japan in 2022 is 4(Metropolitan Police Department) この、米国のとんでもない、気の毒な、ホームレスの方々の惨状は、日本人の私には、とても、信じられない光景です。世界大戦のない、比較的、平和な、今の時代に、米国の政治家は、一体、何をしているのですか？ 今夜も、苦しくて、眠れません。 一部を表示 返信

True. People have a choice. And if that is their choice well so be it!!😮❤
I understand your frustration and you make some valid points, but we must be realistic in our expectations regarding Kensington Avenue and its future!
As you know, addiction is a social issue, you can’t stop people from doing dumb shit. Whether it’s tobacco, alcohol, gambling or drugs, if we want to participate in there use, we will and no one can stop us! History shows the these 4 social issues have plagued society for thousands of years and nothing will change that! So as you can appreciate, the task ahead of Mayor Parker is a monstrous one and it will take many months if not years for any meaningful results to be achieved!
I think that’s being realistic!
Like you, I thought the clean up was a waste of time and taxpayer dollars but I’ve come to realise two very important things happened that day. Firstly, she had the place cleaned up because she promised the community she would! Second, and most importantly she had the encampments uprooted and the addicts dispersed around the corner and surrounded streets! She has coped a hammering for this on social media but there is method in the madness!
In previous administrations, the DA, Larry Krasner decided that arresting drug addicts had no value and only clogged up the prison system! This basically tied law enforcement hands and allowed the open air drug maker to thrive and the addicts do as the like!
Mayor Parker, on the other hand, has a totally different attitude!
Now Kensington Avenue is barricaded off and the addict have been dispersed, they are now being constantly harassed and told to move on, if they don’t comply, they are arrested!
This is the key to Mayor Parker’s strategy to clean up and manage Philadelphias drug issues!
Once they are arrested, they are offered a choice between 30 days in rehab or 30 days in jail!
The people who choose rehab are sent to the rehabilitation super centre which Parker has established on the other side of town. There they receive treatment and support to help them tap into all the government services available, mental health services, counselling, clinical care services, education services even housing support!
Like you said, addiction is a serious multi faceted disease and rehabilitation must be holistic, focused on the mind, body and soul, and the individual needs of the patient!
To be honest, I think Parker is shacking the system to the core! As for the addicts who choose prison, they receive in house rehab care!
Upon discharge or release, both parties are given the opportunity to continue their journey to recovery! There is outpatient care, mental health support and social support, everything they need to change their lives if they want it bad enough!
As for the people who choose to return to the streets, they fall back into the cycle of, loiter, arrest, rehab or jail and release. Over time the Groundhog Day cycle begins to overwhelm the individual and for some, better choices are made!
This system is gaining traction in many cities around the world and the results are encouraging!!
This certainly isn’t a silver bullet to solve the drug crisis in the US, nothing will. But it could be a step in the right direction!
As for those who have chosen to stay in the lifestyle they have grown accustomed to…… I think in the very near future, our government will take a more authoritarian approach to managing the issue! Laws will change, rights and freedoms will be removed for the safety of the individual and the community, and we will see the return of long term assisted care in treatment sanitariums.
I don’t condone this outcome, but it does have merit!
Many addicts with advanced drug dependence fall into the special needs category. The likelihood of them ever recovering is low. Their cognitive impairment is usually significantly and they exhibit limited fine and gross motor function! Many of them would have also lost basic life skills like personal hygiene and social interaction. Leaving these people on the streets to meet their demise is not humane.

To say addiction is by choice over simplifies the disease. No on wakes up one day and says, hey I’m going to be a drug addict, that is simply nonsense!
Addiction is an insidious disease that affects the mind, body and soul of someone. It alters reality and how we perceive ourselves and others around us! It prays on the vulnerable and their emotions and comforts them with a blanket of false hope, it is ruthless!
It has many layers and every time one is pealed off, there is just another ugly layer underneath!
I agree, choice plays its role in addiction but clinically research shows its part can be small! The bigger role that needs to be addressed is the why…. What was the catalyst for the addiction!
For many young people, peer pressure, their home environment, mental health, physical and emotional trauma, abuse of the worst kind, exposure to drugs, proscription or illicit etc,one or all of these factors can contribute to addiction!
As an example, peer pressure can be a major contributing factor to addiction! Experimentation and recreational drug use with friends, sharing a joint with friends, taking a pill or two at a dance party, can quickly become a habit!
Exposure to drugs can also be another gateway to drug use and addiction! Multi generational drug use where patients and relatives expose their children to drugs ate a young age. Mum and dad do it, so can I.
Then we can look at the effects of physical, emotional and psychological trauma. The effects of this can be devastating to a person of any age and for some, they will carry the scars for their lifetime!
You could say that everyone has some sort of trauma through their lives or they’ve suffered abuse and got over it, and that’s very true!
They can process it, or seek professional help, or just lock it away.
They can then pick themselves up, dust themselves off and move on as if nothing happened!
But unfortunately for some, they can’t. They will fall in a spiral of despair, depression, anxiety, self blame, anger, and self loathing etc. They may seek help, but when the treatment program concludes they’re addicted to the drugs that helped them cope. As results, they will turn to street drugs and self medicate!
I read and hear the same stories over and over and over again, and they all have a common thread, they are unable or unwilling to deal with the trauma they have experienced and find peace and comfort in their own way!
In a recent case study I read, a mother who was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and addicted to heroin and cocaine, sold her 12 year old daughter to her pimp for 4 bags of dope and some pills! The pimp then prostituted the 12 year old girl (high on meth) out to MEN for 2 years until she fell pregnant at age 14 to the pimp him self! 6 weeks after the birth of her child, she was returned to the streets and continued working for her pimp! 6 months later she was arrested and placed in custody for 2 years! The baby was left in the care of the father (the pimp.) At 17, she was released and returned to the streets and the father and child were gone. Now in her 30’s she still works the streets she did as children, but on her own! She has no idea who has, or what happened to child and she is emotionally, mentally and physically broken!
There is a lot more to this case study than I have mentioned but it gives you an idea of the level of trauma and its associated effects on the individual! This particular case continues to haunt me, and I find it very difficult to comprehend and consider a satisfactory conclusion about addiction being a choice.
Yes, there were bad choices made but they were driven by individual circumstances.
I look forward to your response!
@@_Miss_K_
I agree with you to a point, taking drugs is a choice but for some, that choice is removed.
Multi generational addiction, where children are exposed to drug use from a very young age!
Where peer pressure is involved at a young age to experiment with drugs!
When a mother use drugs during pregnancy and the baby is born addicted to drugs!
Do these children have a choice or is the choice made for them??

I watched this and other videos as people just walked by and looked at the homeless people with disgust. You can't just blame the city. How many times have you walked past homeless people and pretended not to see them? We all can take blame by not doing something more than making comments. I worked with the homeless and people with addiction for many years before retiring. I thank the person or person who made this video.
The music I like very much
They give life to the street and.......they do something.that is very important (I believe)take care many greetings from Geneva,Switzerland
Wow! Who's the mayor?? This is disgusting! It was getting bad in the 1970-1980's, so sad that the politicians that represent this district let it get this bad!! People you need to vote them out!!! Regardless of party!! 😢😢 America first!!!!!

Η Αμερική... Έτσι θα γίνουμε αν ακολουθούμε την πολιτική τους, την ηθική τους, τις επιδιώξεις τους... Ας σταματήσουμε να τους έχουμε ως υπόδειγμα..!!
America... This is what we will become if we follow their politics, their ethics, their pursuits... Let's stop using them as a role model..!!
There are better role models in the world.
What America, man? Don't be ridiculous. AM,ERICA is not a country. AMERICA is the entire continent since 1507, composed of 35 countries, officially discovered and named AMERICA in the South region by the Catholics, not by the Protestants. Read some history, please.

Is that a lovers spat? Jesus. I know people have to live where they can, and i get that. But personally, i couldn't deal with this insanity..The noise the filth the addicts, the sheer energy of that place would have me committed in an insane asylum. That place is overwhelming 😢 Thanks for closing the video out with the drummer's . It was the highlight of the video ❤

Spotless, clean and spick and span must become a ceremonial ritual for each and every individual to take upon themselves, an expectation a habit, and obsession with clean.
Always make sure that your environment and streets and surroundings are your own responsibility to keep spotless.
And sick and span.The will and the willingness and self-reliance is a good beginning. ❤

Always keep that in mind! You didn’t choose where you were raised, they didn’t either….
Many of the young people in these videos are multi generational addicts! Their grandparents were addicts, their parents were addicts and that young person may have been born an addict! Some don’t stand a chance!!!

I am Japanese and cannot speak English at all. In Japan, I have no experience to see homeless people at all in daily life。 In 2023、Japanese population was 124,000,000 and the number of homeless people was 3,065 from Hokkido to Okinawa(Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare) After seeing this UA-cam, I became tearful and could not sleep at night. In this UA-cam, I imagine every homeless person’s character is good and gentle. I want to invite one of them to my small Japanese house. People are sitting on the road and some of them sleep deeply even during the daytime after getting many drugs. As one of the Japanese, I wonder why many American people became like this homeless. The reason is very simple. Everybody living in this world always fights many different kinds of problems. At that time, if there were some good social systems to support suffering people, people would not depend on drugs. I am very ugly in the US Politicians especially Mr.Biden and Mr.Trump .The two gentlemen can be seen on CNN many times, but, always talk about the US being great again and supporting Israel's killing Palestinian babies, children, and women 32,070 and never talk about the miserable lovely homeless people in Kensington at all. The number of people killed by guns in the USA in 2022 is 44,357(by Gun Violence Archive). The number of people killed by guns in Japan in 2022 is 4(Metropolitan Police Department) この、米国のとんでもない、気の毒な、ホームレスの方々の惨状は、日本人の私には、とても、信じられない光景です。世界大戦のない、比較的、平和な、今の時代に、米国の政治家は、一体、何をしているのですか？ 今夜も、苦しくて、眠れません。

Some of them have luxury cars parking on street? Actually they're rich people. I think this street could potentially become tourist destination for sightseeing along the street.
