Baltimore Security Guard Highlights Systemic Failures in Homelessness Crisis
A Baltimore security guard has ignited a discussion online after sharing her recent experience with the city's approach to homelessness. In a video uploaded on August 20, 2025, the woman recounted an incident where she and her colleagues were required to call the Baltimore Police Department to remove a homeless man from a vacant property. The security guard expressed profound frustration and a lack of empathy for the man, who she noted had no prior criminal record. She questioned the police's role in simply removing individuals without offering resources, stating, "One of the police officers told me that's not for us to figure out, our only job is just to get him removed off the property." She further criticized Baltimore City for its lack of shelters specifically for men, noting that the only available shelters are in the county, which are inaccessible to homeless individuals without transportation. "Men can't even get on their feet because the city doesn't have any resources for them," she stated. The video has sparked widespread commentary, with many viewers echoing her concerns about the criminalization of homelessness and the systemic barriers faced by those seeking help.
