In the first video below, homeless who had been living in a tent city for over a year are being forced to leave, in what could be considered the first step to taking them out of the public eye, so when they disappear it won’t be noticed.
In the second video below a very disturbing phone call is recorded by videographer Tom Lupshu which adds a level of creepiness to what we already know about criminalizing of the homeless, the rounding them up, locking them away under armed guards, in what many call FEMA Camps.
Homeless people can stay at the shelter, but they’re not permitted to walk off the premises. In fact, Columbia will even post a police officer on the road leading to the shelter to ensure that homeless people don’t walk towards downtown. If they want to leave, they need to set up an appointment and be shuttled by a van.
What Lupshu points out, and rightly so, is when the economy crashes and the housing bubble bursts, there will be millions of these homeless and an already organized,, practiced and proven method of rounding the homeless up under the guise of “helping” them and criminalization of being homeless.
