looks like Austin when they lifted the camping ban.

I hear the HOA is pretty strict about the color of tarps used.

I mean, the US IS a third world country, just with iPhones.

This is why I don't go camping.

If you really want a story, go to google street view. 7122 SW Michigan St, captured Aug 2019. Then look down from the bridge, May 2022.

I love watching yt videos of different tent cities around the us. LA is incredible. What a tragedy all around
JohnnyOToGooooo
Yes. Folks downvoting this because they want it to be political.

It’s actually gotten better recently. They are starting to pass laws like if there’s open shelter in 35 mi and you refuse to go. Now face 1/

Jail. We have the housing we have the resources it’s under utilized.

Stop.

One of the problems is it will take a lot of money to fix homelessness, and it's all currently being spent on bombs!
NotTheSameAnymore
Isn't this a chop shop for stolen cars and not a homeless encampment? Or maybe it is both.
JohnnyOToGooooo
At least for stolen bicycles.

They really need a decorator down there. A little mix/matching of tarp colors would do wonders for that place /S

Clearly we need better shanty towns

All favelas begin with tent cities... and violence.
xXxSTEVOxXx
TFW the shanty towns in Mexico and Brazil make American shanty towns look like total shit

And in a red state, they would bulldoze and beat them forcing people to another state like washington. Sweep social problems under the rug.
charondaboatman
Are California, Oregon and Washington red states? How about Colorado? All of them are guilty of bussing their homeless out.
donkeymoney
"sweep social problems under the rug." Forcibly. With batons and bulldozers.
JustDriftingAboutTheInterWebs
they'd just throw them in jail and use them to make money like some other red states just passed laws to do...
Clockworkdancerobot
I would reply to mister "Kyle Rittenhouse did nothing wrong" but they felt they needed to mute me and then comment on my comment. F em.
JohnnyOToGooooo
Does this look humane? I live in LA and it’s not kind to let people live like this for years.
Enginerrrrrrrrr
Ah yes, end game capitalism, where people can't afford shelter because profits are more important.
JohnnyOToGooooo
This is not an issue of money. It’s people who are addicted to drugs.
JustDriftingAboutTheInterWebs
huh, TIL not being able to afford shelter has nothing to do with money and 100% of people struggling are drug addicts. holy shit bro lol
JohnnyOToGooooo
You’re wrong. There are many available ‘shelters’ that don’t allow drug use.
JustDriftingAboutTheInterWebs
dont take my comment as an invitation to discuss how fucked up your opinion is of saying everyone with problems is an addict. fuck off.
