We all want the city cleaned up - at least to 2019 levels. Homelessness is usually a mental health and/or addiction problem. Maybe 311 services can actually help the person. It feels worth a shot
We live in a time where innocent people (especially Asian women such as myself) are being shoved in front of trains, stabbed in their homes, hit in the head with a hammer, etc., by homeless people with mental health problems.
Why are so many people telling OP to just get over it? Yes, it is NYC, and screaming homeless people do come with the territory; I grew up here, and I know that. But you can’t blame people for being worried about their safety and quality of life from time to time.

You guys are interpreting my thoughts exactly. Thank you. And yes I happen to be Asian
Are you new to NYC? And general rule, if you had your plant for less than a year, more than likely you don’t need to repot
You ain’t built for this city 😤😤😤

Homeless now vs homeless in 19 are different OW.
Leave that man alone and go about your day
If he hasn’t beat anyone up idk why he will now beat up kids

Just hose him down with bear spray. That’s what my super does…

Ha!
Just stay in your lane and out of his way. Or move to a different city. Sounds like you may not be cut out for NYC.

Call 311
Download the 311 app and report it if it’s a real problem
Fine to call 911
But to set expectations, the NYPD have lots of other crime and murder to pursue, may take a while to get them out to run-of-the-mill “drug and mental health induced homeless person meltdown”. That’s all day, everyday here
Why would you call 911 for someone yelling? Y’all really kill me with this
What’s with all the hate for reporting somebody?

Ok

Well, you could shoot him and be out on no cash bail!😂

Ha! Very true, most likely. These days in NYC.

I was out recently and had two interesting encounters with homeless people - one called me a scumbag for not looking at him (i was walking answering a work email) lol. And the other came up to my car to try to open the door. You gotta love New York… it is getting scary out there.

Like others have said, this is nyc, mind your own business and leave the gentleman alone.
Part and parcel of living in a big city 😊

That’s not fair. It got a lot worse after COVID. NYC now v. NYC in 2018 are totally different.
Don’t report unless he gets physical
Chief
He has been harassing kids. I have schools nearby and a lot of kids were going home at that time.

repot? like a plant?
If he's in your doorway, I'd have him moved. If he's just in the general area than ignore him.
