Dan de Vaul has taken in dozens of homeless people by building ramshackle, illegal housing on his ranch in San Luis Obispo, Calif. Some see him as a good Samaritan, but others consider the ranch to be a dangerous eyesore.

  • 3:40 its his fucking land

  • To Hell With Zoning!

  • I Love San Luis Obispo Truly Beautiful Country

  • This is a great idea and a great man! What a good use of his land and what a poor excuse for a neighbour that woman is. Heartless woman only concerned with her property values.

  • I feel sorry for that councilwoman's husband......

  • kudos!

  • @thinkforyourself4fre Be careful, I served on jury duty in our small town and it seems to me they are setting more traps out there for people who are having problems with controled substances. Oxy, and pain meds being there first choice for entrapment, I guess the government wants us all in pain. (they didn't let me stay on the jury) not politicaly correct enough for them)

  • @mr203478 americans don't like higher taxes because they receive nothing back for there money, it all just goes to the banks and polititians, and we already pay high taxes 40% at least if you add them up, not counting fees and permits. It all goes to people like the lady you saw complaining about the man trying to help the homeless. If I'm going to help someone I'll do the best I can, and perhaps give to a private charity.

  • God bless him for helping those less fortunate.

  • Am I the only one who found the title of this video quite ironic?
