Police Busted a Hidden Homeless Refuge Under an Overpass

It's hard to believe that someone could survive up there so long and actually made it their home! I felt quite sad watching their belongings being hurled to the ground and bagged up. I wonder what an effort it took to secure each new item and whether the person/ people who lived there were somewhere watching it being destroyed.

dear homeless people:

go be homeless somewhere else.

love, your government.

I agree with George Carlin on this one.

After the Cuban Migration of the '80s, nearly every bridge in South Florida was inhabited. You could look up under every overpass and see mounds of trash and living quarters (the occupants were never around during the day.)

I have noticed in the past few years most all the bridge occupants in South Florida have gone away. I don't know if its stricter enforcement or if they all just found different lodgings, but it's rare to see them now.

is it just me or are all the images in neatorama stories busted?

wow, neatorama without pictures, i don't know why it wont load in my pc, weird!

HOW did he get a couch up there??? I'm impressed by how much junk he had horded up there.

I thought it was my PC; I can´t see the images either.

Hoarded. It's only horded if all the stuff comes from Mongolia.

Like most here I initially couldn't see the image, so had a mental image quite different from the actual situation.

That guy needed to be moved on.

I'm all for people being left alone just so long as they do not present a danger to others and themselves.

That amount of crap up on that centre spar where it could fall onto moving vehicles is just dangersous.

If he was not over traffic I'd say let the guy be.

The missing images are my fault - I forgot to upload them onto Neatorama's image servers before I left for the week (all these posts were scheduled to run while I was gone). Sorry - they should be fixed now.
