Omg. Penthouse apartment to homelessness? How did that happen? And this is sad. I want to cry. I'm so tired of this city not caring. I wish I could do something but I am just a nobody. What can I do to help end homeless? Smh. Sandess
Yeah this tunnel still has homeless people in it and Amtrak's Empire Service, Lakeshore Limited, Maple Leaf, Adirondaks, and Ethan Allen express still runs through it.
i have heard that alot of times now about shelters reminding people of being in prison and getting sick and ill off other people staying there, i think i would want to stay in the subway rather then a shelter too.
The guy from 2:22 Raphael forward was in Dark Days doc living in amtrak tunnel. Was this filmed at the same time? Or did he move back in to the tunnel because at the end of Dark Days he managed to move into an apartment. Anybody knows?
The nyc homeless are homeless by choice and they deserve to be because they continue to make the same bad decisions that made them homeless in the first place, however this documentary is also about the elite homeless finding a home underground as Lord Issac explained it was "the best decision of his life" and as the white guy clearly expressed he fucking loves it.
@JimmyFraska maybe Lord Issac can comment on this video because as we clearly saw they had a computer down there and all though they might not have wifi but i can assure they have an internet connection cuz what other possible thing wud the Lord be doing with a godam computer
@MrNaturalful Unless you were born rich or poor. It also depends on the third world country, most homeless people in the caribbean are fine, food grows year round, and you can hang out on the beach all your life.
Well when you have "Loving, helping transit police" That say "GET UP!" like an ass hole and I'm sure harms homeless people at times I wouldn't be surprised to see some kind of protection type gang formed by homeless.
It's true. But disrespect of homeless people has been going on since the dawn of man so I doubt things will change. I'm mean people think of homeless as sub human. But perhaps one day.
These people are HOUSEless, defining their situation with a more precise term than homeless maybe wont solve the problem but it could be the initial step....
Everyone needs a home, its a basic need like food,water,warmth. When you dont have a home you are really up against it in this world. When I was homeless I had some pretty weird crap going thru my head, severe depression but I got very capable in surviving. Homelessness is a weapon of the state and society to get rid of people, its a dangerous place to be specially with children. They dont want us to own anything least of all our own homes.
The gentleman working for the transit system is saying homeless are being killed in the tunnels.They're not enough shelters to house the number of homeless in the tunnels. Kick them out and they'll walk and die on the streets above.
Good documentary. Homelessness can happen from any stigmata, be it alcoholism, drug abuse, victimization (such as sudden unemployment, home disaster like katrina,criminal behavior,) which is a self-sustaining vicious circle. It's hard to gain escape velocity from victimhood. It's our duty as a compassionate society to assist in any way we can.

There are enough homeless there to form gangs. I'd hate to see what'd happen if they did.

Right now its been two years since I lost my job and home and have been living in a motor home.
Had only temp jobs here and there.
I feel the same way that one guy said;
I want a good job but I don't want to be subjected to rent and bills and others debts people get enslave to by this society.
Don't want to be in that rut again.
