Hold up a second here. So you open a business, you pay the government for a business license, and then you also pay tax too. BUT nothing is done by the government? What this? 17th century?
Why should he have to put up with piles of garbage in front of the place he pays rent for ?
The comment section is telling and shows a total lack of humanity.
Just wow! I suppose when you’ve been desensitized to the murders of children and elderly people in churches… watching someone get hosed down in such a humiliating matter is probably nothing. God bless America 😒😔
I dont blame the guy, he pays for the rental space every month and these homeless ppl dont, They affect his business. The homeless problem everywhere is sickening! She needs to go be homeless somewhere else.
Reminds me of the rich man and Lazarus from the bible
This is a miscarriage of justice. GET OFF THE SIDEWALKS! We pay taxes in order to use them. These bums don't! All homeless deserve this treatment at a minimum!
The Democrats running the state and city are to blame for this. Not the homeless, and definitely not the owner.
Charge the homeless with battery, litering and drugs. These people are 90% junkies and are a burden. They don't want to get clean. Money won't help them as they will just keep using. It's called forced rehabilitation camps far away from society. Enough.
This is the type of person who would have been an excessory to the genocide that was unleased upon the world by Hitler in the Second World War.
😡😡😡 So what! So what! So what! Who cares what she has done!! He didn’t say he stole from him, vandalized his property or assaulted him in any way period!! No matter what else she’s accused of she didn’t deserve this!! He should have exercised other options and spraying anyone w a D@MN water hose is never an option!! Not to mention has anyone addressed her possible mental health issues 🤷ðŸ½â€â™€ï¸ 🤷ðŸ½â€â™€ï¸ 🤷ðŸ½â€â™€ï¸
Our society still has a stigma and blind eye towards mental health services. Not enough funding and resources available
California is a terrible place.
😰
I don't need to watch the whole video but I'm going to!!!! What the f**!! I'm hoping somebody comes by and does something about this!! This is when I wish I could be everywhere!! This is absolutely so deplorable so no no no no this is going way too far!! What the f** is wrong with People?!! Oh my God I am so upset I don't know if I should be swearing don't know if it's allowed but I don't care this is getting ridiculous what is the world coming to ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!!! SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE!!!
we need to reopen state hospitals for long term mental health treatment and housing, plain and simple.
Everyone feels sorry for the homeless but 90% of them won't even lift a finger to change their lives.
The owner he have the right to protect he's business from homeless people
Next up flamethrowers. Get these problems off the streets!
⚖👩ðŸ½â€âš– COLLIER GWIN, 71 WILL BE ARRAIGNED ON FRIDAY, FEBRUARY, 17, 2023 AT 9:00 A.M 🕘📖✊ðŸ¾âœŠðŸ¿âœŠðŸ½
Honestly it's water it technically can't be considered battery. As no harm can come to her physically.
Why did the reverend accept this guy's apology? The apology shouldn't be his to accept, surely?
He was just supposed to call the outreach center I feel sorry for the type conduct towards others human beings
Gwin idolizes Nancy P.
the respect is respect no matter who you are rich or poor
The business owner was nasty and cold BUT the city of San Fransico never even tried to help her like HE did and only handed out a fine when it was caught on camera. Glad I skipped San Fran when I went to Cali…
I’d be grateful to be sprayed with water if I was homeless. I’d be getting my canteen ready to catch the water
🌡😞💔🥶🧊💨🌬💨🧊 WET CLOTHES ON A COLD, BLISTERING DAY CAN LEAD TO HYPOTHERMIA or PNEUMONIA or even DEATH! What happened to HIS VICTIM? DID SHE DIE? 🥶🧊💨🌬💨🧊🥶😞💔🧊🌬💨 I WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO HIS VICTIM? DID SHE GET PNEUMONIA? HYPOTHERMIA? DID SHE DIE IN THE HOSPITAL? WHAT HAPPENED TO HER? WHAT ABOUT HER FAMILY? ARE THEY AWARE OF WHAT HAPPENED TO THEIR LOVED ONE? 💉🩸🤕ðŸ¥ðŸš‘âš° Why haven't the news reporters interviewed her. I am highly suspicious! I suspect that she probably most likely passed away?
Dr Brown is spot on! Wonderful perspective on how to handle this issue. Wish all cities had a rep like him.
Everyone is one step away of becoming homeless no matter who they are or what they do
I visited SF last year for my wedding anniversary, me and my husband walked to a restaurant near our expensive hotel located around other expensive hotels, just to point out it was supposedly a nicer area. Homeless ppl were everywhere, and I felt so bad for them. However, I quickly realized they weren’t like any of the homeless Ive encountered before. We witnessed a lot doing drugs, arguing loudly, physical altercations; most seemed mentally unstable. We left the restaurant and a man was smoking a glass pipe right outside the restaurant door and blew drug smoke in our faces, Idk what drug it was but I was terrified. None of that was there before we entered. We would never have entered if it was. Then we walked a few feet and there was a pile of human feces with a t-shirt in it, obviously used to wipe. Then we were followed for two blocks by a homeless woman screaming at us, I thought she was going to attack us.
There was trash, needles, human waste and homeless ppl all over. But the homeless were all over SF, not just that area. I can understand the frustration the business owners have w the homeless affecting their business. The city needs to do something to help the homeless, the homeless will not change and help themselves. But they can’t be ignored and business owners can’t be blamed for their frustration.
Criminals rule SF. Don't go there
All our money is going to Ukraine and border jumpers. Housing them in fancy hotels
He is a dickhead for doing that.
Its water, not a shovel, not a hammer, not even a gun. He sprayed her with water! Get over it!
This is called the Bubba Effect. When government officials fail to do the things they are supposed to do, normal citizens will take justice into their own hands. Spraying someone with a hose is the least of our worries.
Wouldn't this also be a Hate crime?
He should've, got battery. Then do something about the problem. Or others will do something about it. He didn't have to sprayed in the cold tho. That could hurt her. Not cool.
Oh well at least the problem has been addressed by the mayor. This will be the difference maker
We can have our cake and eat it too. NCAAP guy is all lies. He comes off as a plant.
its wrong that he did this. but this has been a major problem all through California. its so bad. people are shitting in the street, its literally worse than a 3rd world country.
again he shouldn't have done this. but this is a pressure cooker of YEARS of frustration. cal;ifornia needs to do more
you got people lining the subways and subway stations just shooting up throwing needles . and kids are supposed to walk through that?? NO
He is not sorry in the slightest. He was so calm and relaxed. Just leaning with his leg crossed hosing down a woman in freezing temperatures
