We were at a motel on 5/19 and checked out 5/20. 21st, 22ed No Problems. Today the 23rd. a problem.
Women work here. Instead they sent two male librarians over. One of them made the snide remark to her of "being on the list" & when she asked he said "You know the list".
Let's start with why these people are by the freeway. It's CalTrans Property. Meaning the city can't really bother or harass them. Regardless of why the people are unhoused for any number of reasons.
Only CalTrans can say something but most of the time don't. -- however this 'news' makes CalTrans sit idle while the ignorant keep asking the city & state "Why is there so many homeless people & why are they by the freeway & why isn't anybody doing anything"
- I was in PRK, That program failed me. My Letter of when they were closing PRK is attached. I never got transferred to Project Homekey with my health problems.
- Also attached, a email i sent to Janice Hahn office. Never got a response. Can't show the rest of the email due to privacy reasons but you will see a email was sent to her office on Feb 9th. 2021. No response, ever.
- More recent, she talked about how Signal Hill was “functional zero homelessness.” & yet here i am. (image also attached, tweet source here: )
So if I BEEN LET DOWN THIS MUCH -- how does the tax payer think Pathway home encampment program is actually going to work?
For Example, LAHSA claims they spend about 20k-40k yearly on "Services".
I Have never seen a dime of help from LAHSA & I doubt one phone call is worth anywhere near that much. What the state & the county can do IN MY OPINION is reimburse every unhoused person LAHSA claims to spend that much on and others they haven't yet & give me that money cold hard cash so i can get the out of California. I can buy a trailer with that 40k for 25k out of state and finally be no longer homeless.
Also see attached screenshot, the only DM I ever had with LAHSA. I also sent that email back in 2019 as asked to do in the DM as to where to send that email and it never got a response.
If LAHSA has failed me this badly, How do you think LAHSA or any program is doing for the unhoused community by the freeway? When will the tax payer open their eyes and say enough is enough?
SO why is LAHSA still allowed to operate and get funding? Your guess is as good as mine.
I wish more of our housed neighbors took more incentive and did the same steps so I wouldn't have to make videos just to show it's all garbage and nonsense.
Understand that a political lie is when : Tell a lie often enough, it becomes the truth.
Psychological manipulation has been used, and is being used, to control populations. Today, we refer to these efforts as “sophisticated marketing techniques”. But, these “techniques” are also used by “political” parties and governments to keep the herds in line.
The quote is older than all of this, and is common knowledge to virtually every elite. Here is a quote from the book The Crown of Life written in 1869:
‘If a lie is only printed often enough, it becomes a quasi-truth, and if such a truth is repeated often enough, it becomes an article of belief, a dogma, and men will die for it.’
"If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State." - Joseph Gobbles 1941
How many more decades must pass before people start waking up?
Let me remind you all about police. They have no obligation to protect or help you.
The motto, "To Protect and Serve," first coined by the Los Angeles Police Department in the 1950s, has been widely copied by police departments everywhere. exactly, is a police officer's legal… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Due to the nature of the topic. I had to edit down the above tweet very heavily due to some censorship happening.
Final thoughts:
Police reform activists have posited that the purpose of policing is not to protect the public, but instead to maintain the status quo that keeps capitalism alive. The first modern-day police were slave catchers; their only interest was your body for their… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Across Cali, there are the headlines you will see.
A Thread: 🧵TLDR. Not enough tax payers are upset or even showing up to appeal bad choices. We're a democratic society & this means, you & I & everyone else needs to speak up.
I make my story on social media & myself very public because I want people to understand, there is different kinds of homelessness. I work currently two days a week. because of this, i struggle with everything else. Working two days, or seven days. Is not making 3x the rent.
When you see budgets that show for police for example, 500-600 MILLION. (depending on where you live). That's insane. I show San Diego for example because they're actually fighting a shortage to the point calls are longer & harassing the unhoused. it doesn't justify the budget.
