Homeless taken out of Kelley Park

This was literally in my front yard. Some of you guys may have seen my being interviewed on the news earlier this week.

It hasn't been published yet, but the city pulled out 5.3 TONS of trash from the homeless encampments today

I'm so happy... we've been trying to get rid of these goddamn squatters for more than 12 months.

They've nearly burned down the whole place more than a dozen times in the last 6 months

I'm surprised the Bay Area Libtard Army™ hasn't admonished someone for it yet.

You have no idea the kinda crap we had to go through to get rid of these folks.
The SJPD stopped homeless enforcement all together for about 4 months due to a lawsuit in Fresno

Sadly They will prob be back and sooner than you think. My brother was part of a team that would go and remove homeless encampments up and down SJ's guadalupe river and coyote creek. No sooner would they clean a spot then leave, the homeless would be back setting camp.

wow thats a bit ridiculous. 20 people living there for almost two years? im happy for you that they are gone now. id be pissed if a bunch of homeless people lived in front/near my house.

"Moshella said she believes the encampment is being targeted because of a recent string of fires in the area earlier this month." well no **** and the fact that and the you have been there for so damn long.

It's funny people are saying that it's because of the fires... there have been outreach teams in the field for more than a month telling folks that the clean-up was coming.
A lot of the homeless have cleared out in the last week knowing the clean-up was coming. At one point there were 40-50 people living out there.


Personally I think the fires were set by homeless pissed off that they'd have to leave.

The community has plans how to keep the homeless from returning. I've been harassing the chief of police to have night patrols in the park

Put someone like me in charge, they won't be back.

This state is just to ***** about it. Round them up for various law violations, drive them to the Nevada border, give them $50 and send them on their way.
