In 2014 I worked a contract gig there and stayed in an AirBNB a few blocks from that camera. I did a lot of walking around that area and it had some homeless, but the tents were well to the east at that time.

That problem has mushroomed.

Speaking of Skid Row, how is the brother of the poster that was missing and located there by a member of the board?

Y'all are some heartless motherfrickers. Statistically, most of us are one medical disaster away from a similar fate.

You have a lot more in common with these folk than you do billionaires.

Take away all the Narcan and this problem will fix itself.

Didn't realize that's what's been keeping meth and crack addicts around, or alcoholics.

Just saw a guy open up his tent, throw out a big slurpy cup of urine, and crawl right back into his tent...

I can’t even comprehend this lifestyle. Imagine existing like this with no purpose. Makes me sick to watch.

A very valid point that everyone would do well to reflect on.

6:22 in the morning and there's a line outside. They must be giving out free needles or methadone.

You got one life, and you choose to use some of it to watch others live destitute - of their own choices as well as unimaginable context done to them.

It might be time to get a mirror, heart and a yo-yo.
