Ep. 17 | Unhoused vs Homeless: Stories From The Night Shift

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2095660/fan_mail/new] Every night in Kern County, every day across California, and all over the United States, people throw around the word “homeless” like it explains everything....But it doesn’t. There’s a difference the public doesn’t see or doesn’t want to see. One group is experiencing "homelessness" Families, veterans, seniors, people who lost their job, got priced out, or had life hit them hard. They’re trying to get back up. The other group is living "unhoused" People battling addiction, untreated mental illness, trauma, and street survival. People who’ve been outside so long they’ve adapted to it. People who don’t trust the system, don’t want help, or can’t accept it. And yet… America calls them all the same thing. One label. One problem. One solution. it’s NOT one problem, and it’s NOT one solution. In this episode, I’m breaking down the difference between homeless and unhoused, not from a politician, not from a news station, not from a sanitized government report… but from what I see in the field, at night, as private security watching the real version of California that most people avoid. You’re going to hear: 🔥 The truth behind the words “homeless” vs. “unhoused” 🔥 How California became the epicenter of the U.S. homelessness crisis 🔥 Why drugs, fentanyl, and mental illness are reshaping Cali streets 🔥 Why private security ends up handling what the system can’t 🔥 And why lumping everyone together keeps the entire U.S. stuck in the same cycle and how nonprofits continue to benefit from the system. I’m not here to judge.... but I am here to tell you what this looks like when you’re face-to-face with the reality most people only talk about on Facebook.Every night in Kern County, every day across California, and all over the United States, people throw around the word “homeless” like it explains everything.

What If I Can't Run? AB 1333 & The Duty to Retreat

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2095660/fan_mail/new] Proposed California’s AB 1333  "Duty to retreat" could change self-defense forever, forcing you to retreat before fighting back—even if your life is in danger. But what if you can’t run? What if you’re cornered, outnumbered, or protecting your business? California has seen an increased number of the purchase of firearms and  of individuals applying for CCW's and is afraid of Californians using "Self Defense" as a get out of jail free card.  Tonight, we break down what this law could mean for everyday people, Private Security,  and business owners, and why Kyle Rittenhouse is the reason why California proposed this bill in the first place to prevent incidents like his from happening again. Why Marine veteran James Kilcer—who stopped an armed robbery—might have been arrested instead of honored under AB 1333.  When the law tells you to run, but you can’t, what happens next?https://youtu.be/JpIqHwd4TCk [https://youtu.be/JpIqHwd4TCk]
