Authorities Destroy Tiny Homes Built for Homeless Because They ‘Create a Sense of Terror’


The city of Los Angeles is home to around 60,000 homeless people. You wouldn’t know that if you spoke to any liberal politician, who could certainly tell you the number of Dreamers that should be granted amnesty citywide or the number of transgenders that filed complaints that someone used the wrong pronoun with them that week.

No. The homeless depend on people like Elvis Summers, who took it upon himself to ease their plight and make tiny, solar-powered homes for them. But instead of commending him for his act of charity, the city promptly seized the buildings and destroyed them:

Summers’ project went swimmingly — individuals who’d survived in flimsy tents with little to no security felt the dignity of a structure to call home base.

That is, until the city of Los Angeles put its foot down, kicked several tiny home residents, out, and transported the structures for demolition.

“About my house, you know, you know I had a peace of mind,” Willie Hadnot toldNPR shortly after losing his home. “I could shut the door, go lay down, quiet. And that’s what I miss a whole lot, man. I don’t want to start crying.”

Suddenly evicted tiny house residents weren’t permitted to retrieve their few belongings — including medications — before police and garbage trucks hauled the homes away.”
