West side and I had a free night, so I thought I chime in I found that many neighborhood Council committees, especially the homeless ones, have been inundated with homeless rights advocates, who ignore. 318 00:27:19.050 --> 00:27:34.350 Kalani W: Right of stakeholders who actually live in the Community, and I believe in helping the homeless, but I believe in mandating that help I am an indigenous disabled. 319 00:27:35.070 --> 00:27:52.350 Kalani W: Women of color and I was forced out of the workforce at 43 at peak earning age, I never ended up homeless I I did what I needed to do to ensure that I was able to. 320 00:27:53.610 --> 00:28:02.730 Kalani W: not end up on the streets, and if that meant moving to another part of town or another state where I could afford a roof over over my head. 321 00:28:03.000 --> 00:28:28.200 Kalani W: That is what I would have done, I have been fortunate that I planned properly, I did not have mental health or drug abuse issues to contend with, but I believe that we need to mandate and stop coddling when it's time for tough love, because our homeless receive medicaid medicare SSI are. 322 00:28:29.370 --> 00:28:32.790 Kalani W: The some of the encampments have porta potties laundry. 323 00:28:32.790 --> 00:28:34.260 frank murphy: Service every. 324 00:28:35.460 --> 00:28:58.560 Kalani W: Every need available and and many of those who are still left on the streets are those who refuse to accept bridge housing or project room key and they are the ones that are most in need, therefore, I am all for men, dating treatment and getting them off the street, thank you. 325 00:28:59.220 --> 00:29:03.660 vicki halliday: Thank you kalani um next up Sean o'brien. 326 00:29:06.000 --> 00:29:23.040 Sean obrien: hey guys uh uh i've

327 00:29:24.150 --> 00:29:34.110 Sean obrien: He gave me a tour I walked through the encampments with them, and why I did that, and you know I met several of the people that are living there. 328 00:29:35.490 --> 00:29:49.200 Sean obrien: Why, I did that I counted the tense, this was about two, three weeks ago there were 84 tenths at centennial park and around the greenbelt around the West side of the library. 329 00:29:50.460 --> 00:30:11.610 Sean obrien: I have seen a more tense increase, so I think we're fair to say there's 90 tense, so I don't want people saying there's there's only 25 or 60 pounds that's all I wanted to share, as I have, I counted twice, so I would suggest we have at least 90 tents at that, in common, thank you. 330 00:30:12.030 --> 00:30:13.110 frank murphy: Thanks Sean. 331 00:30:13.860 --> 00:30:14.730 frank murphy: Sean I. 332 00:30:15.810 --> 00:30:19.560 frank murphy: I went out this morning and counted and I came up with 78. 333 00:30:21.150 -->

And we can talk a little bit about centennial Park, just so everybody knows um I mean everybody has been concerned about centennial and the dnc somehow getting emotion through um there have been some hit and Miss sort of situations where the motions didn't quite work. 374 00:34:25.140 --> 00:34:25.680 vicki halliday: and 375 00:34:26.850 --> 00:34:31.710 vicki halliday: daffodil and I talked to today, and I think what we're going to try and do next week. 376 00:34:32.040 --> 00:34:43.560 vicki halliday: And we will certainly post it with the proper notice, we will do a joint meeting between the homelessness Committee and the neighborhood committee, but they have a medium Friday morning. 377 00:34:44.580 --> 00:34:57.000 vicki halliday: um what we'll all start doing is asking people to email us with you know their biggest suggestions or questions about centennial. 378 00:34:57.480 --> 00:35:03.750 vicki halliday: And then between the two committees, we will have that joint meeting next week, we will somehow put all this together. 379 00:35:04.380 --> 00:35:15.600 vicki halliday: and get emotion going to the board for the end of the month for this month's meeting because I think it's important that the dnc send something to the city to be on record about all this. 380 00:35:17.850 --> 00:35:34.200 vicki halliday: So you know email us your issues your questions and we'll go through them as daffodil will go through her committees outreach and you know i'll try and even get seeming to put this up on the dnc site. 381 00:35:36.390 --> 00:35:37.920 vicki halliday: Because I just emailed frank awry. 382 00:35:39.330 --> 00:35:40.110 frank murphy: And how much. 383 00:35:42.900 --> 00:35:43.560 frank murphy: up front. 384 00:35:44.850 --> 00:35:48.030 frank murphy: Can we get some some upfront. 385 00:35:49.860 --> 00:35:53.970 frank murphy: Publicity on this, I know, seems wrong. 386 00:35:54.660 --> 00:36:00.480 vicki halliday: frank i'll have to check into that this we just decided, you know earlier today and I haven't talked to sing. 387 00:36:00.480 --> 00:36:04.470 frank murphy: Right yeah yeah I will do that will roll it out, but I think it's. 388 00:36:04.470 --> 00:36:06.930 vicki halliday: Important for the board to. 389 00:36:08.670 --> 00:36:12.030 vicki halliday: You know, let all the voices being heard and get this in a record. 390 00:36:13.110 --> 00:36:15.060 frank murphy: And soon as possible, I think. 391 00:36:15.300 --> 00:36:16.770 vicki halliday: yeah I mean. 392 00:36:17.100 --> 00:36:21.540 vicki halliday: This week, the questions should come into us and then give us a chance to write one. 393 00:36:22.770 --> 00:36:23.160 frank murphy: yeah. 394 00:36:23.400 --> 00:36:27.030 vicki halliday: emotion and get it up and get it posted in time for a meeting later next week. 395 00:36:29.010 --> 00:36:32.220 frank murphy: yeah that makes sense to me any other comments. 396 00:36:37.560 --> 00:36:38.940 vicki halliday: Any public comment on that. 397 00:36:43.080 --> 00:36:45.840 vicki halliday: Lisa redman go ahead Lisa. 398 00:36:47.010 --> 00:37:08.580 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: yeah um you know the expectation that we need to be on record and get something to the city pretty much sounds like it's only going to come from the perspective of housed individuals and not the perspective of unhealthy people, so I would urge people to consider that you know. 399 00:37:09.630 --> 00:37:17.400 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: This encampment kind of came out of nowhere so we've got a much bigger issue going on that. 400 00:37:18.060 --> 00:37:37.950 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Maybe randomly there were just two or three tents there last fall, but it really wasn't towards till mid January that it started really growing, so we need to look at other issues, where there are problems that encampments are being forced to move being pushed out from other places coming. 401 00:37:39.330 --> 00:37:48.840 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: being pushed out illegally by private security forces that they have to go somewhere people have to land somewhere and. 402 00:37:49.260 --> 00:37:53.340 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: This is where they land it they go to a place where they're not going to be father. 403 00:37:54.000 --> 00:38:03.930 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Of course, which bothers everybody that they're there, but we have to look at perspective that people have to exist, they can't disappear, so when encampments are pushed from one street. 404 00:38:04.440 --> 00:38:08.850 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: It doesn't solve the issue, it just kicks the can down the road to somewhere else. 405 00:38:09.660 --> 00:38:21.030 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: So I would urge that, if there is something going to the city, it is with a recommendation that please we get special funding to do an encampment to home. 406 00:38:21.360 --> 00:38:31.260 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: To bought get more hotel vouchers, to take care of that not let's just clear the park but let's have something where people can be taken care of. 407 00:38:31.590 --> 00:38:47.160 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: They just didn't come out of here, out of nowhere, because otherwise that park would have been filled with people you know, for months, for the last few years, so let's think about that from the unhealthy perspective that people have to exist, they can't disappear. 408 00:38:47.670 --> 00:38:48.480 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Okay, thank you. 409 00:38:48.690 --> 00:38:53.100 vicki halliday: Thank you Lisa um next up shauna Brian. 410 00:38:54.810 --> 00:39:11.730 Sean obrien: hi not surprising, I disagree with Lisa redman, we all know how this encampment developed we push the people off the boardwalk push them out of less justin park push them out of other districts coming from other cities states, etc. 411 00:39:12.780 --> 00:39:20.910 Sean obrien: Just because this is the last place they landed does not mean, this is a place that they should remain with That said, thank you for your time. 412 00:39:21.510 --> 00:39:24.930 vicki halliday: Thank you Sean kalani Please go ahead. 413 00:39:31.650 --> 00:39:32.310 vicki halliday: kalani. 414 00:39:33.300 --> 00:39:34.890 Kalani W: Thank you, I needed to be unmuted. 415 00:39:37.260 --> 00:39:44.790 Kalani W: I would like to see the city invest in more treatment centers instead of trying to build $800,000. 416 00:39:45.780 --> 00:40:06.210 Kalani W: Housing units, or even 200,000 mini housing units that take up too much land i'd rather the city start investing in building treatment centers where its most cost effective, it does not make sense to try to force an $800,000 for. 417 00:40:07.200 --> 00:40:17.250 Kalani W: homeless housing you per unit and expensive parts of town, when you could build 10 units where it's more cost effective. 418 00:40:17.580 --> 00:40:32.520 Kalani W: I want to see the city start building where its most cost effective and build treatment centers first and men date treatment, a roof does not solve a drug abuse or mental health issue. 419 00:40:33.000 --> 00:40:43.860 Kalani W: treatment does provide them with treatment centers and but do not allow them to fend for themselves on the street, that is inhumane. 420 00:40:45.930 --> 00:40:46.860 vicki halliday: Thank you kalani. 421 00:40:49.410 --> 00:40:51.000 vicki halliday: And i'm committee come in. 422 00:40:58.080 --> 00:41:09.210 Pat Raphael: Well, I i'm not sure if we were able to get anybody for the Roundtable, but I am on the boardwalk and I do we have a speaker it's a pretty big speaker. 423 00:41:10.050 --> 00:41:24.330 Pat Raphael: that's broadcasting this so that people can kind of participate in one of the folks that's been kind of on looking wanted to participate, so I don't know if. 424 00:41:25.440 --> 00:41:26.490 Pat Raphael: If we want to. 425 00:41:29.040 --> 00:41:29.640 Pat Raphael: Do the. 426 00:41:31.020 --> 00:41:35.730 Pat Raphael: Roundtable with this guest if there's nobody else coming here. 427 00:41:37.950 --> 00:41:39.570 vicki halliday: I think that's fine no you frank. 428 00:41:40.980 --> 00:41:42.810 frank murphy: I think if we can keep it to. 429 00:41:44.940 --> 00:41:51.720 frank murphy: You know, specific person talking at each time it doesn't have to be one person for the whole night but you know what I mean. 430 00:41:52.620 --> 00:41:54.510 frank murphy: yeah you know okay. 431 00:41:54.630 --> 00:41:59.040 Pat Raphael: All right, so this is my neighbor don. 432 00:42:00.210 --> 00:42:20.550 Pat Raphael: he's been in Venice, for as long as i've been here, he came right before I got here about seven eight years ago he's a local angeleno he grew up in the city and i'd like to have his perspective be part of the conversation. 433 00:42:21.900 --> 00:42:22.500 Pat Raphael: hi i'm. 434 00:42:24.390 --> 00:42:25.320 Pat Raphael: born and raised in. 435 00:42:26.790 --> 00:42:35.100 Pat Raphael: South central la so I have a perspective of seeing how it was and how it is, and in reality we all have it. 436 00:42:37.980 --> 00:42:40.080 Pat Raphael: witnessing the dismantling of the middle class. 437 00:42:41.280 --> 00:42:45.660 Pat Raphael: For our eyes and things are happening, where the middle class is. 438 00:42:46.920 --> 00:42:53.070 Pat Raphael: going backwards, so now what we have going on is white people that are being kicked out of the House are joining us because. 439 00:42:54.300 --> 00:42:57.120 Pat Raphael: there's always been in South central la la. 440 00:43:00.360 --> 00:43:02.400 Pat Raphael: The Mexicans that was acceptable, but now that. 441 00:43:05.130 --> 00:43:12.240 Pat Raphael: we're making it seem like it's not coming from other states, and it is coming from other states and other states have more strict rules and regulations. 442 00:43:13.980 --> 00:43:15.360 Pat Raphael: get them to open their own cars. 443 00:43:16.890 --> 00:43:25.320 Pat Raphael: Because we have a little bit more humane policies in California California and people in charge of California squandering money. 444 00:43:26.040 --> 00:43:34.830 Pat Raphael: Millions literally millions of bonds a measure was approved from the taxpayers and that's hard enough to do in itself, and it got done and then, when he was. 445 00:43:35.460 --> 00:43:46.440 Pat Raphael: A lady was saying they're spending ridiculous amounts on one individual and literally young man told me they put them in beverly hills and so and the people that you know, I was in there, buying. 446 00:43:47.580 --> 00:43:49.230 Pat Raphael: And a whole bunch of materials. 447 00:43:50.910 --> 00:43:55.410 Pat Raphael: They need every single item that they have their own house and everybody that's out here that. 448 00:43:58.680 --> 00:44:05.400 Pat Raphael: kind of style they're living in maintaining with creativity and adapting to the situation and they don't need. 449 00:44:07.980 --> 00:44:09.270 Pat Raphael: tunnel and they don't need. 450 00:44:11.280 --> 00:44:20.940 Pat Raphael: to live in, and so we have plenty of land and resources and we shouldn't let the people trying to figure out where they could fit in and where they could squeeze in before the authorities kick. 451 00:44:21.930 --> 00:44:27.600 Pat Raphael: Some other location and some other people have to do with it, but at the end of the thing who's gonna be the righteous as a business. 452 00:44:29.040 --> 00:44:34.740 Pat Raphael: In the room and stand up and say that we are all human beings and the middle class shouldn't be. 453 00:44:35.670 --> 00:44:41.460 Pat Raphael: dismantled, it should be growing, it should be moving forward, that was the American dream and one of the main things that. 454 00:44:41.940 --> 00:44:51.630 Pat Raphael: happened with the 2008 crash, is that they applied adjustable rate interest and they called in their loans in the name that's what really set it set it off. 455 00:44:51.900 --> 00:45:02.130 Pat Raphael: And so, a lot of people don't know the difference between a fixed rate and adjustable rate and the people that took the racetrack when the fees were doubling and tripling quadrupling was all. 456 00:45:12.450 --> 00:45:14.610 Pat Raphael: Government property forever. 457 00:45:22.800 --> 00:45:25.560 Pat Raphael: Sorry there's a group of runners going by on the boardwalk. 458 00:45:30.330 --> 00:45:31.950 Pat Raphael: i'd like to kind of get a sense. 459 00:45:33.690 --> 00:45:49.980 Pat Raphael: about what the what the response of the social service agencies have been in dawn's life, so what kind of contact, he has had from the people that have got the. 460 00:45:51.030 --> 00:45:55.860 Pat Raphael: social workers and caseworkers everywhere and also what kind of. 461 00:45:57.420 --> 00:46:00.270 Pat Raphael: interaction, he has been getting as a person living in his view. 462 00:46:01.170 --> 00:46:08.010 Brian Ulf: hey Pat, can you turn the camera around our view is directly into the sun, could you sit on the other side and have the. 463 00:46:08.340 --> 00:46:09.420 Brian Ulf: Computer, on the other side. 464 00:46:10.140 --> 00:46:11.580 Brian Ulf: There you go now, we can see you. 465 00:46:12.600 --> 00:46:15.150 frank murphy: Much better, much better. 466 00:46:15.510 --> 00:46:15.990 Brian Ulf: Thank you. 467 00:46:17.130 --> 00:46:19.800 Brian Ulf: and bring your partner in their next, yes, we can see him. 468 00:46:23.760 --> 00:46:25.500 Brian Ulf: yeah yeah much better, thank you. 469 00:46:27.240 --> 00:46:27.690 Pat Raphael: yeah so. 470 00:46:28.230 --> 00:46:30.330 Brian Ulf: Great question pat ask them those questions. 471 00:46:31.080 --> 00:46:36.810 Pat Raphael: yeah that's the thinking, I was trying to figure out what's the contact with the. 472 00:46:39.660 --> 00:46:49.830 Pat Raphael: agency volunteers and workers that are going up and down and in talking to all the people in your city housing. 473 00:46:50.880 --> 00:46:57.390 Pat Raphael: What happened, it seems to be the they flooded the area with people that just have jobs is to do nothing, and so. 474 00:46:57.960 --> 00:47:07.110 Pat Raphael: On it's totally totally inefficient and it totally could have been having a reverse effect if they would have hired people that are homeless in the first place. 475 00:47:07.410 --> 00:47:12.570 Pat Raphael: And then transition them into a housing that they could actually maintain because they have a job. 476 00:47:12.930 --> 00:47:21.210 Pat Raphael: But instead of giving them the jobs they give other people, the jobs and then these other people have other interpretations of the solutions because they're looking from the outside, in. 477 00:47:21.480 --> 00:47:26.190 Pat Raphael: Instead of having the people in the insight saying hey I don't need a laugh I just need a little a little. 478 00:47:27.000 --> 00:47:36.540 Pat Raphael: nook and cranny right to lay down and and and then go about my life throughout the day and maybe have somewhere to charge up and maybe somewhere to shower and the basics and but The thing is, is that. 479 00:47:38.220 --> 00:47:38.970 Pat Raphael: they're being. 480 00:47:39.690 --> 00:47:43.320 Brian Ulf: held a chain which agency, have you dealt with i've. 481 00:47:43.620 --> 00:47:50.010 Pat Raphael: spoken to all of them, I like speaking to people and figure out what's going on and, at the end of the day when coven head. 482 00:47:50.670 --> 00:47:52.470 Pat Raphael: They were doing shenanigans like a. 483 00:47:52.890 --> 00:48:03.270 Pat Raphael: passionate flyers and asking people to go to certain locations only for those people to go to the local locations on the same day and be told that those those locations were full and they were not accepting nobody. 484 00:48:03.690 --> 00:48:19.110 Pat Raphael: So it's that kind of stuff hiring people to send people to both places that already at maximum capacity that kind of shenanigans asking for help, or whatever, and then calling and then not getting any feedback not no no calls and return. 485 00:48:20.160 --> 00:48:32.250 Pat Raphael: On this whole bunch of inefficiencies, but the thing is, is that the reason it's inefficient is because, like I said they're bringing in people with outside solutions instead of insights solutions and. 486 00:48:32.820 --> 00:48:42.450 Pat Raphael: we're throwing money billions literally at the solution and then that's going to be used to justify why we shouldn't solve it, because the money, the money is being squandered so have you have you. 487 00:48:43.860 --> 00:48:45.060 Pat Raphael: Have you registered with angels. 488 00:48:46.170 --> 00:48:46.500 Pat Raphael: yeah. 489 00:48:49.020 --> 00:48:49.620 Pat Raphael: Urban. 490 00:48:51.420 --> 00:48:52.170 Pat Raphael: Green the green. 491 00:48:55.380 --> 00:48:55.860 Pat Raphael: Okay, so. 492 00:48:56.940 --> 00:49:03.480 Pat Raphael: So I mean me personally, I don't I don't really need help i'm more than anything, need the police to get off from you. 493 00:49:03.870 --> 00:49:16.770 Pat Raphael: And that was my main issue, the police thrown away my art, the police, targeting and criminalizing people for doing basic life things like life things like sleeping like at. 494 00:49:17.790 --> 00:49:35.610 Pat Raphael: Using police priority in order to harass people that are sleeping versus people that are criminalizing the Community at 123 breaking windows yelling and screaming breaking into cars breaking into people's properties and not doing them for everybody yeah that's for everybody and. 495 00:49:36.960 --> 00:49:45.360 Pat Raphael: So they have a habit, they have a habit that's been consistent of ignoring real prime and then criminalizing like smoking ganja. 496 00:49:45.990 --> 00:49:58.800 Pat Raphael: And and and and and ignoring the true violence, ignoring the true problems and so that's only allowing the numbers to rise up in order to create justification to hire more police, because the crime rates going up. 497 00:49:59.340 --> 00:50:06.060 Pat Raphael: that's ridiculous, you know and so there's all these different people that have their hands in the pie and they're trying to. 498 00:50:07.170 --> 00:50:17.010 Pat Raphael: grab as much as they can and so like I said it's not about money it's about having people in the inside, that have the inside view that can say hey We just need. 499 00:50:18.180 --> 00:50:25.470 Pat Raphael: We already have the resources we have city land state land county land Federal Land it's all these different bureaucracies have. 500 00:50:26.130 --> 00:50:38.820 Pat Raphael: have control of what's already ours that are our government is only a representation of us, they are not us, and so, because they are not us, they are doing what they want, and so as soon as they get hired to work for us. 501 00:50:39.270 --> 00:50:47.430 Pat Raphael: They betrayed us because they have their hand in the pilot and they get corporate welfare political welford and so when Bill Clinton had money. 502 00:50:48.120 --> 00:50:57.630 Pat Raphael: He ended welfare, I was, as we know it when we had a surplus of cash we have extra money in the bank and he decided to take from the poor people and that's the Democrat so. 503 00:50:58.230 --> 00:51:11.250 Pat Raphael: It doesn't matter if you're a democrat or republican leader at the end of the day when they become leaders, they want to lead the money to their pockets and that's what's happening repeatedly so So is there any other questions because i'm not seeing. 504 00:51:15.390 --> 00:51:17.940 Pat Raphael: With people on the ground that. 505 00:51:18.990 --> 00:51:30.660 Pat Raphael: have ever from our conversations showed a process that is even marginally meeting Denise is there any other questions amongst the folks that are listening. 506 00:51:32.400 --> 00:51:38.370 Pat Raphael: Most people are suffering from a failure of imagination, because the malleable fire for one day to the next one bunch of. 507 00:51:38.820 --> 00:51:50.970 Pat Raphael: homeless and so we live in earthquake country and that could be earthquake at any moment, and a whole bunch of people are going to be homeless, so we don't figure this out we're going to have a real problem on our on our hands when cast comes. 508 00:51:51.210 --> 00:51:51.990 Pat Raphael: And so it's best. 509 00:51:52.020 --> 00:52:08.970 Pat Raphael: organized and figure out how to deploy our local communities and figure out who's in our communities, because that's important to having random strangers intense that's not cool, so there is a balance, there is a balance, how things have to be, but when you let it be. 510 00:52:09.030 --> 00:52:09.870 Unregulated. 511 00:52:11.610 --> 00:52:23.730 Pat Raphael: And let it fester and areas that you designate because it's politically Okay, for them to be in certain locations not another's then that's that's that it almost seems a little changes to this point. 512 00:52:25.680 --> 00:52:29.940 Pat Raphael: Not okay place right in front of the library in the now let's. 513 00:52:31.320 --> 00:52:33.660 Pat Raphael: Because kids can't even use a library. 514 00:52:36.420 --> 00:52:36.930 frank murphy: yeah. 515 00:52:37.950 --> 00:52:38.610 frank murphy: um. 516 00:52:39.840 --> 00:52:41.400 frank murphy: question I have is. 517 00:52:42.480 --> 00:52:44.520 frank murphy: You know I agree with you 100%. 518 00:52:47.610 --> 00:52:49.980 frank murphy: Right hiring, why are we hiring new. 519 00:52:49.980 --> 00:52:50.880 frank murphy: People that already. 520 00:52:51.480 --> 00:52:55.320 Pat Raphael: Look what the only thing we're really talking about is eyesores because they're visible. 521 00:52:55.530 --> 00:53:00.540 Pat Raphael: And at the end of the day, we're talking about them being online on land that's visible, so all we have to do. 522 00:53:00.750 --> 00:53:09.570 Pat Raphael: Is create land that's available that's not visible and we could put up a gated fence with the palm trees printed on it so everybody to be okay with this and it could be in a. 523 00:53:10.560 --> 00:53:19.560 Pat Raphael: far out area but, at the end of the day, you don't have to provide a mansion for them denim green whatever way they bring in their stuff to live and let them live the way they live in it, but. 524 00:53:20.130 --> 00:53:24.330 Pat Raphael: You could actually control it to that point where you're you're not squandering resources because. 525 00:53:24.600 --> 00:53:31.680 Pat Raphael: you're not even spending money on building number of structures and plumbing and others you're just doing the basic get some porta potties get some land. 526 00:53:31.980 --> 00:53:44.430 Pat Raphael: don't criminalize them and put them in financial depth when you know they're pouring the first place, because if you're going to ticket them and ask them for money that's not going to solve the problem, so repeatedly ticket and and people for sleeping is super ridiculous. 527 00:53:46.350 --> 00:53:48.780 Pat Raphael: In listening so like you'd like packing up. 528 00:53:49.470 --> 00:54:01.050 Pat Raphael: The voice of Andre Bernard like you know i'm on the same and there's a gentleman named Kevin on the camp that actually spoke to the participant he came over there, and he said, what do you guys need he stood up he got and he was like. 529 00:54:01.980 --> 00:54:06.270 Pat Raphael: me, but he broke it down and let him know that all we needed was was the restroom facilities. 530 00:54:07.560 --> 00:54:12.930 Pat Raphael: Okay, they said okay we'll have him there in two weeks, they never showed up and now they're shooting. 531 00:54:14.790 --> 00:54:15.900 Pat Raphael: Would you go to the library. 532 00:54:17.280 --> 00:54:39.660 Pat Raphael: It kind of smells like crap depend on what direction the wind is blowing so not dealing with it does it make it go away in a waiting for it to become crisis level just forces you to want to be over heavy handed when there's a lot of steps along the way, that can show that. 533 00:54:41.760 --> 00:54:44.580 Pat Raphael: We don't seem to want to put our energy. 534 00:54:50.070 --> 00:54:51.390 vicki halliday: Please pat. 535 00:54:52.770 --> 00:54:57.720 Pat Raphael: It seems like the money can just be spent policing and in other ways, so. 536 00:54:59.070 --> 00:55:03.030 Pat Raphael: yeah it's it's it's a frustration for the folks on the ground in a way that. 537 00:55:04.050 --> 00:55:06.480 Pat Raphael: That we can't we can't ignore at this point. 538 00:55:07.290 --> 00:55:08.370 frank murphy: let's get some other. 539 00:55:10.980 --> 00:55:13.410 frank murphy: want to call out, I think you are raising your hand. 540 00:55:18.420 --> 00:55:22.890 Pat Raphael: say the voice of entrepreneur that's all I mean if anybody has a question for me i'll be happy. 541 00:55:25.050 --> 00:55:27.570 vicki halliday: To quiet, the call that has one. 542 00:55:27.780 --> 00:55:41.820 C Bailey: Oh i'll ask a question, so this is going to be very blunt, I mean both you guys seem like very articulate intelligent young men why aren't you working why aren't you in. 543 00:55:43.440 --> 00:55:47.100 C Bailey: Society, like the rest of us can, why are you out in the street. 544 00:55:48.120 --> 00:55:50.850 C Bailey: And I know you may have already answered it, but this is more like. 545 00:55:52.890 --> 00:55:54.900 C Bailey: what's what's stopping you at this. 546 00:55:54.900 --> 00:55:56.490 C Bailey: Point because I don't. 547 00:55:56.760 --> 00:56:05.010 C Bailey: I don't see you as someone who can't function you don't seem like someone who's got mental illness. 548 00:56:05.430 --> 00:56:07.260 Pat Raphael: Drug addiction ever. 549 00:56:08.340 --> 00:56:14.010 Pat Raphael: I have no drug problem, no alcohol problem i'm a vegetarian I just smoked weed and i'm in control of my. 550 00:56:14.340 --> 00:56:21.990 Pat Raphael: of my facilities, I think, and I contemplate and so yeah I could work for a think tank and get paid so at the end of the day, i'm getting. 551 00:56:22.740 --> 00:56:30.210 Pat Raphael: not paid to think and I enjoyed that, because then I don't have to do anything for anybody because I could work for everybody and not work for what was immediate. 552 00:56:30.360 --> 00:56:41.610 Pat Raphael: answer you asked when she asked why aren't you working because you're on mute at the time you're right I work for myself, I just said, I am working yeah I am working I work for myself i'm an artist i'm a i'm a thinker. 553 00:56:41.910 --> 00:56:53.280 Pat Raphael: i'm a problem solver I help people and there's a bartering system and Venice beach when you have a reputation for having integrity, then more people want to deal with you and so. 554 00:56:54.540 --> 00:57:03.060 Pat Raphael: The false assumptions of how a homeless person is supposed to be, is one of the main things we do have to indeed deal with and so i'm. 555 00:57:04.260 --> 00:57:09.000 Pat Raphael: At the end of the day, I, like all I can say is that nobody needs to pay me for me to feel okay. 556 00:57:09.360 --> 00:57:23.250 Pat Raphael: I could be okay without money and I don't need money our me trinkets I don't need a house I don't need flashy shiny things to be okay, and when I die i'm gonna i'm gonna die and not take none of that stuck with me anyways so I don't have no value for it. 557 00:57:26.040 --> 00:57:34.560 C Bailey: Do you think it's Okay, that those of us who do work, who do go out and pay taxes and earn a living and do all that. 558 00:57:35.700 --> 00:57:41.430 C Bailey: And i'm not and you guys personally but don't want to see this in our streets on it. 559 00:57:41.580 --> 00:57:41.790 Pat Raphael: If. 560 00:57:42.330 --> 00:57:52.770 Pat Raphael: If one person is one person is being rob is not justification for another person to be robbed and, conversely, if one person is being overly tax is not okay for. 561 00:57:53.370 --> 00:57:58.890 Pat Raphael: Everybody to be already taxed and one of the main things that's leading to homeless list and i'm glad you mentioned taxes. 562 00:57:59.100 --> 00:58:08.790 Pat Raphael: Is property taxes, because guess what it's an illusion, the American dream of owning property is an illusion, if they could take it away and kick out our elderly if they cannot pay. 563 00:58:08.970 --> 00:58:18.270 Pat Raphael: Property taxes forever there's, not even a set time that when you're at you don't have to pay property taxes, no more and there's not a set time and not only that there's not a fixed fee it's. 564 00:58:18.660 --> 00:58:30.000 Pat Raphael: An adjustable fee, based on the the current property value so that's another messed up thing that they're doing to the elderly that have gotten into the property market at a low price accumulated. 565 00:58:31.140 --> 00:58:39.870 Pat Raphael: This whole value of it's based on who knows what but and then penalize them to pay more, because the houses Fort worth board that makes sense to you man. 566 00:58:40.110 --> 00:58:43.500 C Bailey: Do you feel actually prop 13 keeps that from happening. 567 00:58:43.650 --> 00:58:45.150 C Bailey: But there are people at. 568 00:58:46.230 --> 00:58:49.230 Pat Raphael: The jarvis what you're talking about that's just only in California. 569 00:58:49.440 --> 00:58:51.150 C Bailey: And at the end of the day, the. 570 00:58:51.810 --> 00:59:05.730 Pat Raphael: Corporations took advantage of that and the residential people, it was meant for them, and so, then people that have humongous acres of ownership of land in California are getting scot free and not paying taxes, because of that, and so that needs to be separated. 571 00:59:06.750 --> 00:59:15.420 Pat Raphael: corporate taxes and regular mom and pop people trying to have a little teepee to live in, and so you need to know the difference, but. 572 00:59:15.450 --> 00:59:21.870 C Bailey: Can you can you can you have a teepee not down the street from us from a home that's right. 573 00:59:22.530 --> 00:59:23.280 that's the point. 574 00:59:24.360 --> 00:59:25.770 Pat Raphael: that's what we're talking about. 575 00:59:27.510 --> 00:59:39.420 Pat Raphael: own we all have a share we're a shareholder in the corporation of America we own the land, the government is only a representative of us this land is available readily available, we have. 576 00:59:40.830 --> 00:59:55.740 Pat Raphael: been untamed land but yeah you guys want to fight and squabble over over a little piece of property that everybody's trying to hold on to and just live, they just want to live and be and exist and so that's the point that you have to have common sense to realize. 577 00:59:55.890 --> 00:59:56.640 Pat Raphael: They don't exist. 578 00:59:58.980 --> 01:00:02.010 Pat Raphael: yeah i'm not trying to be problematic or argumentative. 579 01:00:04.050 --> 01:00:10.890 Pat Raphael: um people have to exist, and if they don't assists here and we move on somewhere else, they still have to exist and so why not. 580 01:00:11.250 --> 01:00:19.890 Pat Raphael: put them in land that we already own and we don't even have to pay taxes or fees, because we already own it, and then we can put a wall around it and then put some mortal. 581 01:00:20.970 --> 01:00:30.030 Pat Raphael: Bodies inside of it and electricity and nobody's going to see what's going on in there and then they could have you could actually pay some security from from people that that are in there, then know that have. 582 01:00:31.200 --> 01:00:40.620 Pat Raphael: High respect and a high integrity, because people are different, not all homeless are are are horrible individual there's good people and bad people in all fields. 583 01:00:40.890 --> 01:00:53.580 Pat Raphael: And so you have to find a good people in power, the good people, and then you don't have to worry about it, because they have an inside view they know exactly who's who's causing the problem and they know how to deal with the problem, thank you Elizabeth right. 584 01:00:55.320 --> 01:00:57.360 Pat Raphael: Questions Elizabeth right. 585 01:01:01.470 --> 01:01:04.410 Elizabeth Wright: If you feel comfortable, would you share with us how you. 586 01:01:05.910 --> 01:01:10.290 Elizabeth Wright: went from having a roof over your head to not having a roof. 587 01:01:10.920 --> 01:01:19.110 Pat Raphael: i'll tell you um we were paying rent to Mr Bob it for 30 years and he did not want to sell the property, even though we had. 588 01:01:20.250 --> 01:01:30.870 Pat Raphael: money to pay for it and and he had we asked several times, through the through the through that 30 year period, and he said no, because his philosophy was accumulating properties. 589 01:01:31.650 --> 01:01:35.220 Pat Raphael: To his portfolio he didn't want to invest in Wall Street he wanted to invest in properties. 590 01:01:36.030 --> 01:01:44.490 Pat Raphael: He was he was a slumlord there was no problem, we would fix the property we maintain the property, we were just happy that he wasn't in our life listeners. 591 01:01:44.850 --> 01:01:55.440 Pat Raphael: And so, at the end, the day, what happened was he had the audacity to sell the property, without even warning my family so from one day to the next one guy comes yelling and screaming for us to leave. 592 01:01:55.710 --> 01:02:05.460 Pat Raphael: And we didn't believe them we thought was some crazy guy down the street, but it turned out to be the truth, the owner sold the property without giving my family a month warning that. 593 01:02:06.060 --> 01:02:13.380 Pat Raphael: After living there 30 years we had to move that's what happened, and so, by the time my family enter the housing market that the housing market was. 594 01:02:14.160 --> 01:02:20.760 Pat Raphael: ridiculously high they couldn't afford to live in this Community anymore, so they move far away and I refused to leave because. 595 01:02:21.060 --> 01:02:29.130 Pat Raphael: At the end of the day this happen, I believe, because my fault, because I joined occupy Wall Street, and I was protesting for a month in downtown la. 596 01:02:29.400 --> 01:02:39.600 Pat Raphael: And then, when the police raided us because there was like 1000 of us, and we were just growing and growing teacher from joining us joining us union members were joining us and we were the 99% we didn't. 597 01:02:39.960 --> 01:02:54.660 Pat Raphael: We weren't on nobody side because we were on everybody side, and I did something horrible according to the police, which was I I organized the artists and we were doing our outreach and when the police raided I had all my friends that I met over there. 598 01:02:54.930 --> 01:03:06.060 Pat Raphael: To my house and they use my house as a headquarters to do art in a community to clean to do murals to pass out food to the homeless and then next you know i'm homeless that's what happened. 599 01:03:08.100 --> 01:03:08.520 Elizabeth Wright: Thank you. 600 01:03:10.260 --> 01:03:10.560 frank murphy: All right. 601 01:03:11.250 --> 01:03:15.000 vicki halliday: A couple of hands up in the audience um let's. 602 01:03:16.740 --> 01:03:23.550 Pat Raphael: See, I mean anybody anybody that knows anything about property when you buy a property, you want to look at it before you buy it they didn't even look at it. 603 01:03:24.210 --> 01:03:37.290 Pat Raphael: yeah this was a they paid this man so much money he couldn't resist his way of doing business that he sold the property, without even having any little bit of compassion to tell my mom and family hey get ready, you have to leave. 604 01:03:38.220 --> 01:03:39.000 Pat Raphael: So that kind of. 605 01:03:40.290 --> 01:03:40.740 Pat Raphael: Dealing with. 606 01:03:42.030 --> 01:03:42.600 frank murphy: Okay. 607 01:03:43.830 --> 01:03:44.610 frank murphy: let's run. 608 01:03:45.600 --> 01:03:50.790 vicki halliday: And we've got audience our hands up frank shawna Brian go ahead. 609 01:03:52.170 --> 01:04:09.360 Sean obrien: hey joy to your perspective big question I have when you talk about the the city, the county whatever squandering money we have the new program the circle team with urban alchemy i've talked to him a few times when they were walking around. 610 01:04:10.470 --> 01:04:23.880 Sean obrien: They don't really seem to be having an impact are doing much other than nope nope keeping i'd love to hear your experiences with them and are they helpful, thank you. 611 01:04:25.260 --> 01:04:25.890 vicki halliday: Thank you sure. 612 01:04:28.080 --> 01:04:39.960 Pat Raphael: That The thing is, is that it's not visible if they are are not helping us because the numbers are growing, and we have people coming from other areas that are being shut down. 613 01:04:40.260 --> 01:04:49.350 Pat Raphael: Like ECHO park and and other areas of the state and cities and everywhere else there's people that are moving from one spot to the next spot, so you might help everybody out. 614 01:04:49.800 --> 01:04:58.380 Pat Raphael: Here, that are here today, but tomorrow there's new arrivals there's always new arrivals new people and people moving on to other locations, we see this yeah. 615 01:04:58.860 --> 01:05:08.970 Pat Raphael: And so, at the end of the day, i'm even even what they're doing is not enough, even if they were even if the word operating efficiently. 616 01:05:09.480 --> 01:05:16.830 Pat Raphael: They don't have the resources to do the job because they're squandering the resources in the first place and i'm sure it's not the rank and file. 617 01:05:17.100 --> 01:05:29.190 Pat Raphael: that the decision of how the spend the money is coming from the top management of those organizations, and so I could tell you for a fact, though, that they're squandering the money buying a whole bunch of expensive. 618 01:05:29.910 --> 01:05:37.680 Pat Raphael: material for those rooms and houses that they're putting these people in that they these people don't even want or need because they're coming right back out here to sell it so. 619 01:05:38.790 --> 01:05:44.880 Pat Raphael: Somebody that has a drug problem doesn't need to have their own house, full of new brand new stuff. 620 01:05:46.740 --> 01:06:01.740 Pat Raphael: you're only facilitating has drug need and drug use and then you're disqualifying somebody that actually would value that stuff and so i'm at the end, the day why even spend your money on that stuff when you don't have to and that's what we're talking about spending money unnecessarily. 621 01:06:02.880 --> 01:06:03.390 frank murphy: All right. 622 01:06:03.690 --> 01:06:09.960 vicki halliday: Thank you i've got a column user one, so please go ahead. 623 01:06:16.290 --> 01:06:17.130 Call-In User_1: Can you hear me. 624 01:06:17.460 --> 01:06:17.880 vicki halliday: Yes, we. 625 01:06:18.990 --> 01:06:38.190 Call-In User_1: Just enjoying part of society, out of here in the helicopter I wanted to know, are you concerned about should you reach a retirement age and how you'll be eligible for social security and to have you been formerly re. 626 01:06:39.270 --> 01:06:52.620 Call-In User_1: evaluated to determine your diagnosis and if you are able to function in what is considered the norms of society, thank you. 627 01:07:07.470 --> 01:07:08.550 frank murphy: i'm not sure. 628 01:07:12.840 --> 01:07:20.730 Pat Raphael: It sounds like she's concerned about retirement and The thing is, is that with the things are the way things are going with inflation. 629 01:07:21.960 --> 01:07:29.730 Pat Raphael: they're pretty much putting our whole currencies reputation on the line by doing the quantitative easing. 630 01:07:30.240 --> 01:07:44.250 Pat Raphael: One quantitative easing two and the European year old they're doing the same thing and i'm them printing money is devaluing the money that exists, so it takes more money to buy the actual stuff that really exist, the material stuff and so more. 631 01:07:44.520 --> 01:07:55.500 Pat Raphael: Money for paper, money is chasing the real stuff and so social security retirement um a lot of that is being squandered in this lifetime right now. 632 01:07:55.890 --> 01:08:03.780 Pat Raphael: As we speak, right now, because there's not going to be no future with this currency if they keep on printing printing printing printing printing money. 633 01:08:04.200 --> 01:08:14.070 Pat Raphael: And there was a huge point in time, where they have zero percent interest and they pretty much swallowed up the whole world when they had zero percent interest and so now they. 634 01:08:14.490 --> 01:08:24.180 Pat Raphael: are letting them regular mom and POPs into the housing market well it's already super duper inflated so in South central la you have million dollar homes. 635 01:08:24.600 --> 01:08:31.170 Pat Raphael: So if you guys think there's millionaires in South central la that's not the case, but the property starting to reach a million dollars. 636 01:08:31.590 --> 01:08:41.220 Pat Raphael: In South central la, which is a ghetto, and so um the money's flooding the system, the liquidity is flooding the system and buying real world assets mind. 637 01:08:42.990 --> 01:08:57.390 frank murphy: How does that relate back to the I think what our question is is you're going to hit a certain point where you your retirement is going to be necessary, how are you going to handle that. 638 01:08:58.500 --> 01:09:02.460 frank murphy: You know you're managing now but you're managing at a very. 639 01:09:04.980 --> 01:09:06.570 frank murphy: you're you're. 640 01:09:07.920 --> 01:09:15.420

about me me me me me cuz that's what. 668 01:12:56.670 --> 01:13:04.890 Pat Raphael: anger is when you're all it has to be this way and if it's not this way i'm going to be upset and all of that it's not going to help solve the problem, and so. 669 01:13:05.340 --> 01:13:16.800 Pat Raphael: By her thinking that only certain people do certain things that she's missing the boat completely because there's been a whole bunch of house people that have done a whole bunch of horrible crimes this kid that had a House recently just sorry. 670 01:13:16.800 --> 01:13:20.370 vicki halliday: I think we

opportunity for people to learn and educate themselves that not everybody can live having a nine to five job that not everyone has to have a social security program but yet at the same time. 674 01:13:49.680 --> 01:14:01.290 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: it's a gracious to me that a fellow committee Member will mean another fellow committee Member saying why don't you have a job, why don't you have a job that fits into my parameters. 675 01:14:02.940 --> 01:14:12.540 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: it's embarrassing that vicki is dictating what you can be fine humorous or not, it just really this is turned into a very bad cable actually a. 676 01:14:12.540 --> 01:14:14.820 vicki halliday: lot i'm leaving i'm leaving because. 677 01:14:19.170 --> 01:14:19.350 frank murphy: I. 678 01:14:21.840 --> 01:14:22.140 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: Was. 679 01:14:22.680 --> 01:14:26.640 frank murphy: Like how do I get it on the show you're very, very good person, thank you. 680 01:14:27.720 --> 01:14:28.230 Lisa Redmond - Venice Catholic Worker: don't. 681 01:14:31.500 --> 01:14:33.360 vicki halliday: kalani your next up, please. 682 01:14:35.400 --> 01:14:38.070 Kalani W: Thank you very entertaining. 683 01:14:39.900 --> 01:14:47.790 Kalani W: I am a person that has been evaluated, I was evaluated, because I suffered a brain injury at 43. 684 01:14:48.630 --> 01:14:48.930 peak. 685 01:14:50.100 --> 01:14:59.160 Kalani W: peak earning years I did not end up homeless or a burden to society. 686 01:15:00.210 --> 01:15:29.040 Kalani W: I hear a lot of over analysis paralysis says a lot of method to your madness and excuses upon excuses, and you know it just reminds me a lot of those those hippies that invaded my home state of Hawaii back in the 60s, who were turning on tuning in and dropping out. 687 01:15:30.810 --> 01:15:31.440 Kalani W: and 688 01:15:34.410 --> 01:15:36.180 Kalani W: They somehow found their way. 689 01:15:37.620 --> 01:16:01.170 Kalani W: into communes briefly and then somehow they became members of society, because we were not dealing with the mental health issues and the drug abuse issues that we're dealing with now, and now I believe that government has over coddle now we've. 690 01:16:02.280 --> 01:16:04.470 Kalani W: we've over coddled. 691 01:16:05.760 --> 01:16:15.480 Kalani W: These the people who are squatting our streets, to the point where they know all the key talking points they know all the buzzwords. 692 01:16:16.860 --> 01:16:40.950 Kalani W: It is difficult to even believe much of what they're saying, because so much of it has been fed to them by homeless rights activists, possibly even possibly even some who are on this call, who are so Soviet mentally pro homelessness rights. 693 01:16:42.060 --> 01:17:03.120 Kalani W: And I do believe that we, we as a caring society need to help those less fortunate, because I was one of those who is less fortunate when I suffered my brain injury, but, and I was put on a because I was not thinking properly because of my brain injury. 694 01:17:04.470 --> 01:17:25.020 Kalani W: And I and that mandate forced those 48 hours allowed my friends to convince me that I was truly sick come to find out, I had a serious brain injury, that I was unaware of. 695 01:17:26.070 --> 01:17:46.500 Kalani W: But because I had been I was forced into treatment, it was mandated upon me because, after I was literally taken to emergency in an ambulance I tried to escape because I wasn't thinking property, I thought i'm only two blocks from home I. 696 01:17:47.670 --> 01:17:50.370 frank murphy: kalani what's the question. 697 01:17:50.610 --> 01:17:52.230 Kalani W: The question is. 698 01:17:52.650 --> 01:18:08.190 Kalani W: If you received all of your wishes, packed you know the the electricity the land and left alone and everything but, but that was in the outline parts of the city or county. 699 01:18:09.300 --> 01:18:27.810 Kalani W: Would you move from where you're at and go to that facility if treatment and treatment was required for for for whatever is is forcing you out of the norms of society. 700 01:18:29.160 --> 01:18:29.490 Kalani W: and 701 01:18:29.700 --> 01:18:36.660 Kalani W: Very and forcing you on to public spaces, like the streets or or the fish. 702 01:18:37.740 --> 01:18:38.910 frank murphy: Thank you economy. 703 01:18:42.870 --> 01:18:45.390 frank murphy: Do you guys want to respond to that because. 704 01:18:49.140 --> 01:18:54.810 Pat Raphael: The thing is, is that these people are not being coddled it's the opposite, because there is indeed a mental health. 705 01:18:55.260 --> 01:19:05.280 Pat Raphael: problem there's a lot of people that have mental issues and bigger than that we have a fentanyl issue that it's going to become a lot worse, even though 100,000 people have recently died. 706 01:19:05.940 --> 01:19:18.450 Pat Raphael: Last year, and the years previously it's just added up to the hundred thousand and it's just increasing because now they're putting fentanyl and all the rest of the drugs so they're sneaking in fencing all into all these other drugs and so. 707 01:19:20.100 --> 01:19:25.770 Pat Raphael: they're not being coddled they're being killed literally and the government, they are not doing nothing about it they're letting the Community. 708 01:19:25.980 --> 01:19:34.260 Pat Raphael: be filled and flooded with fentanyl and now these young kids are not even asking for the regular drugs are asking directly for that drug fentanyl and so. 709 01:19:34.680 --> 01:19:47.700 Pat Raphael: That drug is killing people and it's coming from China and that's money that's being imported, and so our borders, not being protected so that's another abdication of responsibility from our government and. 710 01:19:49.560 --> 01:19:59.460 Pat Raphael: it's not it's not being addressed it's not a heroin epidemic it's up fentanyl epidemic and once it hits all the rest of the drugs from. 711 01:20:00.360 --> 01:20:14.430 Pat Raphael: oxy cotton, I had a role and anything other kind of pills, that you can imagine they're just putting it in anything just to sneak it into people's videos and so so asking for treatment for somebody doesn't even. 712 01:20:16.140 --> 01:20:35.700 Pat Raphael: becomes that sense of infantilizing that often makes grown ups like things like this on for them right, so if you're saying in order for me to access services, you have to treat me like a child right a lot of people who take care of themselves because. 713 01:20:37.440 --> 01:20:49.740 Pat Raphael: I don't want to speak for done, but he doesn't really live in a public space, I mean he's got his little contained area where all of his stuff is right and. 714 01:20:51.330 --> 01:20:59.250 Pat Raphael: Even though he doesn't have a house he's a member of the Community, so I I I feel like a lot of times. 715 01:20:59.730 --> 01:21:11.280 Pat Raphael: People are dealing with a caricature a straw man in their head and then they're applying that to everybody, because if you aren't like me, you must be. 716 01:21:11.790 --> 01:21:20.850 Pat Raphael: Somebody with a problem, and I think that's hard to uh that's hard to come to solutions with that kind of thinking, because it's only going to try to. 717 01:21:22.500 --> 01:21:23.220 Pat Raphael: Try to. 718 01:21:24.240 --> 01:21:38.010 Pat Raphael: over China handle people and and not everybody needs to be handled in that way, though, as Donna was saying there is mental health there's drug issues there's alcohol and in some of those needs to be addressed. 719 01:21:39.300 --> 01:21:39.900 frank murphy: Okay. 720 01:21:40.650 --> 01:21:45.780 vicki halliday: We have one more hand up on TIM, do you like to ask something. 721 01:21:47.340 --> 01:21:59.940 Tim: yeah hey guys interesting conversation the pat and don think tank is definitely super interesting so appreciate you guys answering all these questions. 722 01:22:00.750 --> 01:22:05.670 Tim: One thing I wanted to ask, and you said that anger comes from people being me me me me. 723 01:22:06.240 --> 01:22:18.000 Tim: And in this situation, I really disagree, I think what makes me angry about the homeless situation is that all of the people that live in Venice have at some point experienced a situation where they've been afraid. 724 01:22:19.140 --> 01:22:35.160 Tim: You go to the grocery store The other day I saw a guy who works at whole foods getting berated by a homeless woman, because she didn't like the way the peppers locked, what is your guys thoughts on how to handle those folks and what's a reasonable approach from your guy's perspective. 725 01:22:40.230 --> 01:22:55.980 Pat Raphael: At the end of the day, it's your House, the alarm or house or or or you have a yard, or what whatever thing you have going on it's not okay to hurt people, and if we have to please doing their job, then they would actually do with the people hurting people and that's what i'm talking about. 726 01:22:57.120 --> 01:23:03.930 Pat Raphael: nobody's saying do not lock up people that are criminalizing nobody said that but there's a difference between a criminal and somebody. 727 01:23:04.140 --> 01:23:04.950 That lost their house. 728 01:23:06.090 --> 01:23:14.880 Pat Raphael: One way or another, and so, at the end of the day, i'm being fearful because of somebody approaching you. 729 01:23:15.360 --> 01:23:25.860 Pat Raphael: or doing some behavior could come from anybody, it could come from somebody with the House or or a mansion or anything else so having trinkets and possessions doesn't make you a good person. 730 01:23:26.220 --> 01:23:34.260 Pat Raphael: And so we got good and bad people everywhere and so that's what we need to separate the people that really are righteous really want to solve the problem. 731 01:23:34.620 --> 01:23:41.490 Pat Raphael: And, but people that just want to be haters and want to trip it up and fumbling and then blame and that can contaminate down. 732 01:23:41.880 --> 01:23:46.260 Pat Raphael: Those are two separate energies So if you want to create and build and collaborate. 733 01:23:46.890 --> 01:24:00.090 Pat Raphael: that's a positive way forward and so at the end of the day, we're gonna have problems, but if we hire people that that's their job to like the 19 police officers, they stood outside the door why those children were being killed, they are. 734 01:24:01.440 --> 01:24:08.130 Pat Raphael: Armed paid trained to deal with that, but they didn't and that's what we're talking about that. 735 01:24:09.000 --> 01:24:20.520 Pat Raphael: we're spending money approving bond measures to get money for homelessness and the people in charge are still in it, and the same things happening with our children's schools they're privatizing the La USD. 736 01:24:21.630 --> 01:24:34.710 Pat Raphael: Giving it away to charters and all of those buildings that were built were supposed to be brand new buildings for the La USD but instead of giving those buildings so la la who is Dean, they gave those brand new buildings to the Charter schools. 737 01:24:36.000 --> 01:24:36.450 frank murphy: All right. 738 01:24:36.480 --> 01:24:39.840 vicki halliday: What can we got one more hand up i'm Andrew. 739 01:24:40.860 --> 01:24:41.370 vicki halliday: Go ahead. 740 01:24:43.170 --> 01:24:58.080 andrew: hi, it is the question before no I was just wondering what your thoughts are on on two things harm reduction strategies and then on tiny home or tiny shelter villages that are elsewhere in the city, thank you. 741 01:24:59.820 --> 01:25:03.750 Pat Raphael: We figured out how to solve a lot of the problems, based on that. 742 01:25:04.860 --> 01:25:12.000 Pat Raphael: When you approach somebody that's doing something wrong and it's only one person approaching that person that person usually tries to make it personal. 743 01:25:12.330 --> 01:25:17.190 Pat Raphael: And that's, the key to not make it personal because it's not personal if you tell somebody because. 744 01:25:17.730 --> 01:25:27.900 Pat Raphael: There was a point where a guy was peeing in broad daylight, and I post them and I told him that that was not okay what he was doing, and he was drunk and he wanted to fight me and then I told him hey. 745 01:25:28.410 --> 01:25:34.920 Pat Raphael: At the end of the day, i'm telling you for your own good, because you're going to end up in jail as a sex offender if you don't put your we'll wait. 746 01:25:35.400 --> 01:25:43.890 Pat Raphael: And then he stumbled and I said, this is not a fighting situation, this is me trying to help you and then stop it backwards and he got Ahold of himself and there was no fight. 747 01:25:45.000 --> 01:25:48.390 Pat Raphael: And so, at the end of the day, if I tell somebody something. 748 01:25:48.900 --> 01:25:58.980 Pat Raphael: And then somebody else of firms it hey buddy we're not violent right here we're having a good time conversation discussing things and you're welcome to come in conversation with us, but if you want to fight it and fight pad. 749 01:25:59.280 --> 01:26:03.930 Pat Raphael: it's not cool had told us not cool with that you know just goes to the beach is humongous go somewhere else. 750 01:26:04.260 --> 01:26:10.860 Pat Raphael: And do your thing and meditate or get it out and we're not the problem, and you have problems, so we can help you, with your Angers. 751 01:26:11.700 --> 01:26:24.180 Pat Raphael: being directed at us, because we don't we don't want to set of violence and so at the end we're not fighting ourselves in, and he was recently attack and his window was broken and and when he told me. 752 01:26:25.020 --> 01:26:40.230 Pat Raphael: I told him oh your windows broken, no real fix it and he didn't, believe me, and at the end of the day, his window was fixed because I had a piece of plexiglass and I I measured the window that wasn't broken and I cut it and I put it on his window door that was broken so number. 753 01:26:45.120 --> 01:26:46.680 Pat Raphael: Often, where. 754 01:26:47.850 --> 01:27:05.070 Pat Raphael: we're saying how can we enable people so that they don't hurt themselves, while they're doing something that's dysfunctional I myself have never thought that that was the approach but but but. 755 01:27:07.500 --> 01:27:16.860 Pat Raphael: I I don't know what what what what the solution for it should be, because we don't want dirty needles to create a problem but. 756 01:27:17.910 --> 01:27:33.180 Pat Raphael: there's also a line where people feel like oh now i'm comfortable to be on drugs right so we're not just people so it's hard for us to to to look at what it's doing to people and then saying. 757 01:27:33.510 --> 01:27:34.350 What can we. 758 01:27:35.640 --> 01:27:45.900 Pat Raphael: Help and continue I I I don't know what the solution is but a lot of them on reduction techniques, seem to me to just be a. 759 01:27:48.000 --> 01:27:49.350 Pat Raphael: Harm enabling. 760 01:27:50.370 --> 01:27:52.860 Pat Raphael: while reducing some other facets. 761 01:27:59.250 --> 01:28:04.530 Pat Raphael: home and that's the key that tiny homes, thank you for the man mentioning the tiny homes that's what it is. 762 01:28:05.040 --> 01:28:11.340 Pat Raphael: it's not a mansion it's a tiny little tiny home that's how they need and it's a little bigger than a tip but. 763 01:28:12.210 --> 01:28:24.060 Pat Raphael: What some sort of regulated or order to it it's not a free for all, a wild Wild West ended up at the library, because it can be anywhere right when there's if they were to be. 764 01:28:24.540 --> 01:28:38.460 Pat Raphael: Hard in tiny homes created to solve the problem, it would be thoughtful where we put them we wouldn't just put them anywhere in with the tense situations, the way it is now people get in where they fit in because there's nowhere else to go. 765 01:28:40.950 --> 01:28:43.230 frank murphy: I agree um. 766 01:28:45.840 --> 01:28:53.550 frank murphy: hey pat change time thanks I really appreciate it, and the. 767 01:28:55.110 --> 01:28:57.840 frank murphy: inputs gonna be digested. 768 01:29:00.150 --> 01:29:01.260 frank murphy: And we'll go from there. 769 01:29:03.000 --> 01:29:06.390 frank murphy: um we've got committee comments. 770 01:29:07.470 --> 01:29:16.470 frank murphy: On items that weren't on the agenda, seen as there's nothing on the agenda, the committee can comment on just about anything um. 771 01:29:17.520 --> 01:29:20.190 frank murphy: Any other input from the Committee. 772 01:29:24.960 --> 01:29:28.470 C Bailey: And I have one sentence just in general. 773 01:29:31.080 --> 01:29:33.330 C Bailey: Just after hearing. 774 01:29:35.250 --> 01:29:42.090 C Bailey: hearing that pat and i'm sorry I forgot your name you're very articulate but I don't mean to disrespect I forgot your name. 775 01:29:42.210 --> 01:29:43.890 Pat Raphael: Oh that's my friend dawn. 776 01:29:44.820 --> 01:29:45.330 Sorry. 777 01:29:46.590 --> 01:29:52.470 C Bailey: I feel like we need to look at this and we've said this before and and and the homeless. 778 01:29:53.880 --> 01:30:01.800 C Bailey: The the what's who's out there and who's homeless you've got the mentally ill they've got to be separated and dealt with. 779 01:30:02.670 --> 01:30:15.570 C Bailey: Different and completely separate you know way of handling them until you've got drug addicted people who needs to be handled differently than the mentally ill and then you've got people who. 780 01:30:17.400 --> 01:30:30.570 C Bailey: who have both probably need to be handled and then there's there's going to be people who don't want to conform and don't want to live in the same way, the rest of us do, but the rest of us don't want them living on our streets. 781 01:30:31.560 --> 01:30:40.170 C Bailey: How do we give them a place to live that's humane that gives them dignity and respect. 782 01:30:41.520 --> 01:30:46.410 C Bailey: If we could separate those groups and say okay and deal with them separately. 783 01:30:47.700 --> 01:30:50.280 C Bailey: and give the each group the help they need then. 784 01:30:52.110 --> 01:30:55.830 C Bailey: I don't know, maybe i'm rambling I don't want to ramble too much, but. 785 01:30:57.210 --> 01:30:58.650 C Bailey: that's that's my take. 786 01:30:58.890 --> 01:30:59.970 frank murphy: Points well taken. 787 01:31:03.270 --> 01:31:05.430 frank murphy: I mean, are there, multiple issues. 788 01:31:05.910 --> 01:31:06.510 C Bailey: Yes. 789 01:31:06.870 --> 01:31:10.500 frank murphy: And there's diving into it there's multiple people every i'm. 790 01:31:10.530 --> 01:31:20.010 frank murphy: sure every person is a whole different set of issues and so it's that's why the questions were really you know, like where'd you come from, how do you. 791 01:31:20.520 --> 01:31:35.880 frank murphy: How did you react to it, what facilitated it, you know the the whole concept of being able to participate quote unquote in society well. 792 01:31:36.600 --> 01:31:48.270 frank murphy: You know you got to have outsiders, and you got to have insiders you know, and so, but that doesn't mean one overwhelms the other and when you've got 3% of the population dictating what. 793 01:31:50.820 --> 01:31:55.920 frank murphy: 97% of the population are to have to endure. 794 01:31:56.970 --> 01:31:58.080 frank murphy: you've got a problem. 795 01:31:58.680 --> 01:31:59.970 C Bailey: And that's why we have anger. 796 01:32:00.840 --> 01:32:03.660 frank murphy: And that's why the anger, but the anger. 797 01:32:09.480 --> 01:32:10.110 frank murphy: You know. 798 01:32:12.000 --> 01:32:21.120 frank murphy: We were supposed to read, we, the answers to these questions, they were answered many, many years ago. 799 01:32:23.100 --> 01:32:23.640 frank murphy: The. 800 01:32:25.620 --> 01:32:29.160 frank murphy: The powers that be chose not to. 801 01:32:31.320 --> 01:32:37.530 frank murphy: implement those answers and that's been going on for decades. 802 01:32:40.380 --> 01:32:48.810 frank murphy: Now there might be 30 different answers to how to deal with these issues and on all those different levels that you break them out at. 803 01:32:51.660 --> 01:32:54.060 frank murphy: But those 30 different answers are out there. 804 01:32:55.500 --> 01:32:56.670 frank murphy: it's just that. 805 01:32:58.440 --> 01:33:06.210 frank murphy: there's there's there's you know so so we're dictated with trying to handle all of the. 806 01:33:07.500 --> 01:33:08.640 frank murphy: All of the. 807 01:33:10.050 --> 01:33:16.170 frank murphy: You know that we need an answer to this right now, today, so all the answers have been out there for 30 years. 808 01:33:17.640 --> 01:33:19.200 frank murphy: This is not new stuff. 809 01:33:21.270 --> 01:33:30.270 frank murphy: And so you know, I have a bit of a problem when they dump it on to like say the homeless committee and say, well, the homeless committee isn't doing it. 810 01:33:31.140 --> 01:33:46.650 frank murphy: Well, we can't do anything we're an advisory panel we're not here to function, as you know, to solve the problem we're here to educate as to how we see the problem in our local community. 811 01:33:48.060 --> 01:33:54.570 frank murphy: So I think that there's a lot of stuff that's going on, that is. 812 01:33:56.640 --> 01:33:58.560 frank murphy: very, very difficult for. 813 01:34:01.050 --> 01:34:04.590 frank murphy: me to stomach and certainly to to. 814 01:34:06.480 --> 01:34:17.070 frank murphy: On both sides of the issue, whether it's the House or the House it's just this is not acceptable anyhow that's my rant sorry. 815 01:34:24.690 --> 01:34:25.890 frank murphy: anybody else have. 816 01:34:28.380 --> 01:34:30.210 frank murphy: anything they want to chip in. 817 01:34:31.770 --> 01:34:33.120 Elizabeth Wright: yep yeah um. 818 01:34:34.350 --> 01:34:35.910 Elizabeth Wright: I would like to invite. 819 01:34:38.010 --> 01:34:48.900 Elizabeth Wright: Everyone in the Community to submit their ideas for things that they homeless, this committee of the neighborhood Council can actually do. 820 01:34:50.520 --> 01:34:55.170 Elizabeth Wright: Are there specific needs, that we can help. 821 01:34:56.400 --> 01:34:57.240 Elizabeth Wright: satisfy. 822 01:35:03.480 --> 01:35:04.320 Elizabeth Wright: We want to hear. 823 01:35:05.520 --> 01:35:14.760 Elizabeth Wright: What is it that homeless people in Venice actually need that we can have a hand in providing. 824 01:35:18.570 --> 01:35:21.450 Elizabeth Wright: So, if you would submit those to the. 825 01:35:22.530 --> 01:35:23.160 Elizabeth Wright: Committee. 826 01:35:24.570 --> 01:35:28.500 Elizabeth Wright: Then I would like to see what we actually can do. 827 01:35:29.550 --> 01:35:30.480 Elizabeth Wright: As a committee. 828 01:35:38.430 --> 01:35:45.150 frank murphy: got it any any That would be good to get just to get started on be specific. 829 01:35:47.940 --> 01:35:48.900 frank murphy: anybody else. 830 01:35:50.430 --> 01:36:07.560 Pat Raphael: I think an audit of the locally available land from the city in the county and the State what's available and then an audit of the money that's floating in for these issues to see how the money is being spent and how it's being allocated and then at the end get some type of. 831 01:36:11.580 --> 01:36:14.910 Pat Raphael: responsibility and accountability, out of those who are spending the money. 832 01:36:15.120 --> 01:36:17.340 Pat Raphael: But remember when you have an audit. 833 01:36:17.490 --> 01:36:18.210 If we. 834 01:36:19.980 --> 01:36:28.470 Pat Raphael: Of the land, because I was one of the earliest things we voted for when we asked to get all of the different available properties. 835 01:36:29.430 --> 01:36:29.940 consent. 836 01:36:31.110 --> 01:36:31.530 vicki halliday: done. 837 01:36:31.560 --> 01:36:33.300 frank murphy: Right that's on the side. 838 01:36:33.300 --> 01:36:42.780 Pat Raphael: I remember you guys remember what happened after that that gave the haters something to point to so that they could say hey they're trying to take away all of our parks. 839 01:36:43.170 --> 01:36:44.250 frank murphy: And then not I don't. 840 01:36:46.170 --> 01:36:58.530 frank murphy: know that was it was a bit more nuanced than that that I disagree with you on that one, and the response was a bit more nuanced it didn't it didn't he hasn't produced anything but it but it's. 841 01:37:00.750 --> 01:37:07.350 Pat Raphael: not producing anytime you come out of any of those properties we're not moving through insane. 842 01:37:07.380 --> 01:37:09.120 These are the ones that are stats. 843 01:37:10.740 --> 01:37:11.820 frank murphy: That was my point. 844 01:37:12.270 --> 01:37:16.830 frank murphy: That was my point is why aren't we seeing anything we know what the solution. 845 01:37:16.830 --> 01:37:17.640 Pat Raphael: Is no. 846 01:37:18.750 --> 01:37:27.990 frank murphy: yeah I agree with you, but I, but I, but it was a new a lot more nuanced reactions were a lot more nuanced than that at least in my mind. 847 01:37:29.430 --> 01:37:32.070 vicki halliday: and run galperin the controller did do. 848 01:37:33.090 --> 01:37:36.000 vicki halliday: A pretty big audit of where. 849 01:37:37.020 --> 01:37:47.940 vicki halliday: Some of these monies have gone and it's pretty egregious some of it yeah I mean you know when you think that the Director of St Joseph Center is making this. 850 01:37:48.780 --> 01:38:07.560 vicki halliday: I forget the number I can't put it right now but it's it's a very large yearly salary and you know the the portion of their monies that goes to actual outreach and actual helping is very small compared to their yearly budget. 851 01:38:09.300 --> 01:38:28.950 vicki halliday: which goes for more fundraising activities for offices for pretty good salaries um and their stuff like that that when you start digging into it it's it's pretty it's interesting it's disappointing because the money is not the bulk of the money is not going. 852 01:38:30.360 --> 01:38:32.190 vicki halliday: To where it should, in my opinion. 853 01:38:33.330 --> 01:38:39.840 vicki halliday: And that's to people who need it, not the people who are handing out croissants on the street. 854 01:38:44.490 --> 01:38:47.130 Brian Ulf: You can't sharpen a pencil with no bid contracts. 855 01:38:48.270 --> 01:38:49.200 frank murphy: No kidding. 856 01:38:49.620 --> 01:38:57.330 Brian Ulf: Okay, so that's just every one of those contracts are all the same they're all dead they're all handed out who's next in line. 857 01:38:58.830 --> 01:39:09.090 C Bailey: I think we're all agreeing that the money is being stolen, no matter what side of this issue we're on the money has been taken by somebody and it's not where it needs to be. 858 01:39:09.690 --> 01:39:15.960 Brian Ulf: Well that's what the elections, hopefully we'll do with the leadership there's people saying we're going to audit those. 859 01:39:16.650 --> 01:39:34.230 Brian Ulf: You know daily on the job this guy know they both back said that the monster on the median anything that was an excess of when galperin came out with a report saying there's five or $700,000 to build they all publicly stood up and said that money needs to be clawed back. 860 01:39:35.250 --> 01:39:45.420 Brian Ulf: And that's that's when daily own said, you know i'm going to do 25,000 units and by 2025 all these promises but he's on the homeless, poverty committee. 861 01:39:45.810 --> 01:39:57.810 Brian Ulf: As as Joe as as these other and it's going to be a vote right off the BAT for over a million dollars unit for the Venice media, I mean you've got to start climbing back and doing stuff. 862 01:39:59.280 --> 01:40:01.770 Brian Ulf: And and accountability, I mean. 863 01:40:01.830 --> 01:40:04.770 Brian Ulf: If you can hide behind hipaa and not have to show your results. 864 01:40:04.890 --> 01:40:06.330 Brian Ulf: Because it's a privacy issue. 865 01:40:07.260 --> 01:40:18.330 Brian Ulf: I mean we have to have accountability and factual numbers, how many people did you House how many people did this, how many people moved into hotels and her back out and centennial Park, where are they from. 866 01:40:18.600 --> 01:40:31.200 Brian Ulf: I mean it's not kicking the can I mean Lisa a lot of Lisa Reverend said, you know we're just kicking it down, but how many people went into bridge housing, how many people went in to tiny homes, how many people did that and they're back out again. 867 01:40:32.490 --> 01:40:43.350 Brian Ulf: And, and how do we deal with that you know I can't I can't believe we have no bathrooms in and centennial Park, yet we have portable bathrooms in the sanitation station. 868 01:40:44.910 --> 01:40:53.970 Brian Ulf: In the weapons, you know Next, I mean it's just so inhumane, I mean where where is Mike bonnen in our cities tan. 869 01:40:54.450 --> 01:41:00.600 Brian Ulf: centennial park needs to be cleaned up and needs to be cleaned up for the betterment of everybody. 870 01:41:00.960 --> 01:41:11.880 Brian Ulf: You know, we try to put in a tower and and do a camera situation Oh, we can't put it there, the city said no, we can't do toilets, here we can't do this or you've seen the videos that are being filmed in centennial park. 871 01:41:13.140 --> 01:41:20.490 Brian Ulf: it's outrageous Pat, I mean patent you both wouldn't want to be hanging out in centennial park when you see what's happening in the middle of the night. 872 01:41:21.720 --> 01:41:23.040 Pat Raphael: guys horrible we don't we don't. 873 01:41:23.670 --> 01:41:24.630 Brian Ulf: You don't go there. 874 01:41:24.690 --> 01:41:28.620 Brian Ulf: yeah but it's okay that it's right there and and. 875 01:41:29.130 --> 01:41:34.680 Pat Raphael: it's not okay that that there's violence marinating at three three in the morning because it's not supposed to be. 876 01:41:34.950 --> 01:41:48.900 Brian Ulf: But how do we, how do we stop that I mean I mean again the compassion that's in the Venice Community I mean we have over 60% of the homelessness that's that's in Council district 11 is right here in Venice right here and. 877 01:41:49.470 --> 01:41:56.970 Brian Ulf: How do you how do you how do you want to tell the neighbors with their children that this violence is going to happen at all hours of the night. 878 01:41:58.380 --> 01:42:00.120 Brian Ulf: 25 yards, from where they live. 879 01:42:01.680 --> 01:42:12.870 Brian Ulf: How, how do you tell I mean do you do get a neighborhood watch of let's say you guys put together a committee of 20 people we did this on skid row when I was on sleep and wine guard Center downtown. 880 01:42:13.410 --> 01:42:23.640 Brian Ulf: You know, we had what they called the guardian angels you've heard of that in the past that they identified as the Community residents, if you guys had an organized group of say 20 of you. 881 01:42:24.360 --> 01:42:32.400 Brian Ulf: That were managed and and and and brought together and had open meetings, just like what we're doing now, but let's get a group of 20 of you. 882 01:42:33.030 --> 01:42:41.820 Brian Ulf: And, and you guys kind of come up with a Community benefits agreement saying we won't allow that behavior to happen in centennial park. 883 01:42:42.600 --> 01:42:51.210 Brian Ulf: We won't allow that behavior to happen here or there, because this is our community to if everybody that's that's not housed. 884 01:42:51.870 --> 01:43:00.780 Brian Ulf: forms the ideas that you get you you, you were saying that hey the police can't do their job or this can happen well the police can't do the job because they've been told they can't do that. 885 01:43:01.410 --> 01:43:10.410 Brian Ulf: That they can't arrest people that are actually violating those crimes, how do we get to that would you be willing to put a group of 20 of you guys together and girls. 886 01:43:10.860 --> 01:43:20.730 Brian Ulf: That are homeless and farm a little coalition that we can do a think tank since your problem solver and let's sit in a room and and get the 20 people to start policing. 887 01:43:21.240 --> 01:43:30.330 Brian Ulf: And being guardian angels of the property, because you said you don't want to see it you go up to the person that's urinating you go up and have a decent conversation with them. 888 01:43:30.690 --> 01:43:41.460 Brian Ulf: If I do that i'm the bad guy if you do that, and you can get to them that's great, so why don't we enable you guys to to be part of this team to be part of this Community. 889 01:43:41.640 --> 01:43:49.920 Pat Raphael: and actually we have something already, we have been given money that's doing things like this you're getting. 890 01:43:51.720 --> 01:43:54.600 Brian Ulf: everything done less been less get another one pat. 891 01:43:55.080 --> 01:43:56.760 Brian Ulf: You put together a group of guys. 892 01:43:57.090 --> 01:44:00.540 Pat Raphael: And that's taking money for not for no effect. 893 01:44:00.960 --> 01:44:04.740 Brian Ulf: let's let's forget the money let's do it because it's the right thing to do. 894 01:44:06.150 --> 01:44:10.050 Brian Ulf: All right, just like we're here on this call, none of us are paid to be here. 895 01:44:11.640 --> 01:44:23.670 Brian Ulf: Okay we're here to give Community input and value I sit on the sea path Community Community please advisory board i'm the Chair of an organization that i'm the only person that doesn't get paid to be in any meeting that I go to. 896 01:44:24.630 --> 01:44:30.810 Brian Ulf: So let's do this together let's form a group you you form 20 people and we'll go meet. 897 01:44:32.070 --> 01:44:34.260 Brian Ulf: And then let's come up with a list of how we're going to fix it. 898 01:44:35.790 --> 01:44:39.630 Brian Ulf: You don't have to get paid to do it give it back to the Community pay it forward. 899 01:44:40.230 --> 01:44:41.790 Pat Raphael: I work for free so. 900 01:44:41.940 --> 01:44:42.720 i'll do anything. 901 01:44:44.790 --> 01:44:45.330 Pat Raphael: um. 902 01:44:48.150 --> 01:45:02.580 Pat Raphael: I think I think it'll be a good thing to do to organize a community to get people from different locations to have a inside view of what's really going on and how we could actually really help them because there's different locations dealing with different problems. 903 01:45:03.060 --> 01:45:03.390 and 904 01:45:05.070 --> 01:45:06.510 Brian Ulf: Therefore guys like you. 905 01:45:06.900 --> 01:45:14.850 Brian Ulf: Do it let's get the let's get the guy TIM from last week or last month let's Pat, you know, put the group together and let's have a meeting. 906 01:45:17.130 --> 01:45:19.350 Pat Raphael: And and i'm. 907 01:45:21.780 --> 01:45:23.250 Pat Raphael: zoom or like you're busy. 908 01:45:23.550 --> 01:45:26.940 Brian Ulf: we'll just we'll come out and sit on the beach, we can just do this in around circle. 909 01:45:27.660 --> 01:45:43.860 Brian Ulf: All right, let's make let's do a Community benefits agreement, what do you want, what do you have, what can we do this is what we want, this is what we have this is what we'd like to see unless it as adults and come up with something that works before i'm an agreement with each other. 910 01:45:44.580 --> 01:45:46.290 Pat Raphael: yeah well see the thing is that. 911 01:45:48.360 --> 01:45:51.960 Pat Raphael: We do indeed have way more than 20 people that are like minded. 912 01:45:52.680 --> 01:45:53.310 Pat Raphael: If not. 913 01:45:53.790 --> 01:46:01.470 Brian Ulf: Well then, you'll represent them and you'll get information from them and you just hand pick your group, whether it's 10 people or 20 people. 914 01:46:02.070 --> 01:46:03.840 Brian Ulf: 10 is probably easier to manage. 915 01:46:04.260 --> 01:46:15.660 Brian Ulf: You know, you know the group out there, you know who's out there was you know the people that have weight and carry power on the street, you know, Dan does this stand us every day with the gang. 916 01:46:16.380 --> 01:46:17.310 Pat Raphael: I think we could do that. 917 01:46:17.460 --> 01:46:18.210 Ansar Muhammad: were brought up. 918 01:46:18.510 --> 01:46:19.920 vicki halliday: In stand there. 919 01:46:21.060 --> 01:46:25.110 Pat Raphael: For an external force to help was we can help ourselves internally and. 920 01:46:26.550 --> 01:46:30.630 Pat Raphael: by finding the people that are on the same vibe in the. 921 01:46:31.980 --> 01:46:40.410 Brian Ulf: mean if you if you came to us and said I have 50 people right here that will go into a pallet shelter a tiny home all right. 922 01:46:41.490 --> 01:46:50.370 Brian Ulf: Now, and then we show up to bond is obviously hair here's 50 that will go into pilot shelters and we'll go anywhere that they're being built in the city of Los Angeles. 923 01:46:53.790 --> 01:46:54.750 Pat Raphael: We could be project like. 924 01:46:55.260 --> 01:46:57.720 Brian Ulf: This all day long, I mean. 925 01:47:00.180 --> 01:47:01.920 Brian Ulf: This isn't unsolvable. 926 01:47:02.820 --> 01:47:09.780 Brian Ulf: nope, but you have to work again we, we have to work with you and we want to work with you. 927 01:47:11.010 --> 01:47:14.430 Pat Raphael: This is our friends, he does a lot with the ladies. 928 01:47:17.070 --> 01:47:18.150 Pat Raphael: You helps a lot in related. 929 01:47:19.230 --> 01:47:21.630 Brian Ulf: yeah I mean you don't have a drug. 930 01:47:21.630 --> 01:47:25.410 Brian Ulf: problem, maybe you know so well does, how do we get that person into detox. 931 01:47:25.440 --> 01:47:31.770 Brian Ulf: How can I help you get that guy into detox that guy that girl, how can we do this, you know. 932 01:47:33.450 --> 01:47:44.940 Brian Ulf: We have to work together, we can't we can't have house versus on house this yelling and allow the people that make decisions sitting up there have nothing to do it if we have to fix it ourselves let's join together and do it. 933 01:47:45.720 --> 01:47:45.960 yeah. 934 01:47:47.790 --> 01:47:48.090 Pat Raphael: You can't. 935 01:47:51.480 --> 01:47:53.280 frank murphy: Stand you got anything to add in there. 936 01:47:53.430 --> 01:47:55.050 Ansar Muhammad: i've been listening in this very. 937 01:47:56.970 --> 01:47:59.370 Ansar Muhammad: very informative so I definitely want to thank Pat. 938 01:48:00.600 --> 01:48:06.540 Ansar Muhammad: In the gentleman who came on to speak, because these are the voices that need to be heard. 939 01:48:07.050 --> 01:48:11.820 Ansar Muhammad: Exactly and if we're not humbled enough to listen. 940 01:48:13.020 --> 01:48:26.580 Ansar Muhammad: To real time issues, then Shame on us, so I wanted to just lend an ear tonight and listen, because when we began to listen, you can begin to. 941 01:48:27.210 --> 01:48:43.410 Ansar Muhammad: see that we're listening to people like us, you know, some may be bigger so maybe smaller so maybe taller so maybe shorter but we're dealing with human beings man, so I appreciate it, and what the gentleman said on the front end of this was really. 942 01:48:44.430 --> 01:48:51.450 Ansar Muhammad: Something that we all should pay attention to what the service providers, not empowering local folks. 943 01:48:52.590 --> 01:49:00.870 Ansar Muhammad: You know that should be a policy if we can get down the road that it should be a percentage of local hiring it should be a policy. 944 01:49:01.650 --> 01:49:10.470 Ansar Muhammad: That any agency that's providing homeless services in Venice, to have a local hiring policy that they must hire from within. 945 01:49:11.460 --> 01:49:21.480 Ansar Muhammad: That in itself will solve not half the problem, but a great percentage of the problem, because now you have people, who is from the Community. 946 01:49:21.990 --> 01:49:38.250 Ansar Muhammad: who lived in this type of environment is now employee to do outreach effectively and so when Brian mentioned the gang stuff I don't have nobody on my team that's doing hardcore gang and avichal work in Venice this outside of Venice. 947 01:49:38.520 --> 01:49:47.910 Ansar Muhammad: exactly these people that's providing services to gang Members and their families from Venice it's a it's an oxymoron. 948 01:49:48.660 --> 01:50:03.210 Ansar Muhammad: position to go out and hire people to come into a situation and provide services to people like that's only slide pat and the guy these Dudes can come in and run a damn Program. 949 01:50:04.440 --> 01:50:13.230 Ansar Muhammad: So thank you guys for coming on man, I just wanted to listen tonight, because if we don't learn to listen effectively actively. 950 01:50:13.710 --> 01:50:21.690 Ansar Muhammad: Then we're gonna keep having this conversation man, so thank you Pat, I would like to do exactly what Brian said let's have that meeting. 951 01:50:22.590 --> 01:50:39.810 Ansar Muhammad: Not only once, but let's have it until we come up with resolution and solutions to solve the problem, and once we get this voice heard outside of the homeless committee because of the political landscape, we might be able to get the ears of those who spend the tape biden's position. 952 01:50:40.950 --> 01:50:50.970 Ansar Muhammad: We might better get the ear, but we can't get the ear if we fussing and fighting you got to get rid of these people they a nuisance get rid of them their news I mean come on yeah. 953 01:50:51.660 --> 01:51:06.330 Ansar Muhammad: I mean come on for real y'all just heard from 200 visits a night very intelligent responses, so thank you guys man for coming on and whatever I can do, Pat is done. 954 01:51:07.410 --> 01:51:07.860 Ansar Muhammad: Thank you. 955 01:51:09.390 --> 01:51:11.700 frank murphy: Good good well guys. 956 01:51:12.210 --> 01:51:17.760 Brian Ulf: pat let's have a let's have a meeting on June 15 That gives you two weeks to put. 957 01:51:19.050 --> 01:51:24.180 Brian Ulf: You tell us how many you want, if it's five people if it's 10 people have is 15 of its 20. 958 01:51:25.230 --> 01:51:38.100 Brian Ulf: All right, and then we're going to sit down and find out what kind of community benefit agreements can we make to make both sides of the street start to come together and it's not going to happen, the first meeting or maybe the fifth. 959 01:51:39.240 --> 01:51:41.310 Brian Ulf: When you trust us and we trust you it's. 960 01:51:41.670 --> 01:52:00.120 frank murphy: We it sounds like you were in an organizing pattern here, why don't we take that offline you guys can get you pat and Brian can get in touch with each other and diane and and also some of the other folks that we've had in because we've had real good. 961 01:52:01.230 --> 01:52:05.220 frank murphy: homeless people in the meetings that have had a lot of really. 962 01:52:06.840 --> 01:52:11.730 frank murphy: Good stuff to say and also stand so let's take that off. 963 01:52:12.480 --> 01:52:13.920 frank murphy: me organize them. 964 01:52:16.050 --> 01:52:20.460 Ansar Muhammad: We can deal with some of the safety stuff I heard that on the front end about safety. 965 01:52:21.000 --> 01:52:30.240 Ansar Muhammad: yeah yeah our approach is dealing with indigenous so my people show up like I got guys out there, right now, when they show up and nobody from the bark at them. 966 01:52:30.900 --> 01:52:39.990 Ansar Muhammad: Because they found that they from Venice, I mean come on man and nobody from the bar because they from the neighborhood but it's easy to bark on somebody that don't know the landscape, or the terrain. 967 01:52:41.010 --> 01:52:43.680 Ansar Muhammad: And there'll be basically saying get us out of here, you went from here. 968 01:52:44.220 --> 01:52:50.640 Ansar Muhammad: mm hmm so let's let's deal with that so when it comes to the safety stuff I think we can have that conversation when we get down the road. 969 01:52:51.180 --> 01:53:00.090 Ansar Muhammad: we're bringing bringing some of our best practices and if you notice we haven't had no yellow tape and a while with gang violence is the reason for that. 970 01:53:01.230 --> 01:53:03.630 Ansar Muhammad: You know, immediate and stuff damn near every day man. 971 01:53:04.710 --> 01:53:17.340 Ansar Muhammad: This is going to show the beat 13th to culver city threats say the Santa Monica reseda sad tale threat say we mediate and every day to make sure people that's in Venice now can walk the dogs down the street, without being shot at. 972 01:53:18.990 --> 01:53:25.590 Ansar Muhammad: So, at the end of the day, we're brain that strategy to the table and let's see how far we can get down the road, thank you. 973 01:53:28.590 --> 01:53:29.610 Pat Raphael: have to reboot our. 974 01:53:30.750 --> 01:53:33.210 Pat Raphael: we've got a spot where you can try to meet it. 975 01:53:34.290 --> 01:53:36.390 Brian Ulf: yeah why don't you and I will talk offline. 976 01:53:36.480 --> 01:53:38.670
