The fact we live in a country where there are homeless veterans in a lot of major cities helps you understand just how right George was most of the time. The fact that he could confront you with stuff that ought to make you mad, and still make it hilarious shows you his genius. He cut through BS better than anyone else, and his voice is greatly missed.
I wish we had an actual modern day equivalent of him even though I know people now would hate it because the truth is uncomfortable but we need someone like him nowadays
It feels impossible to not check out a Carlin reaction. Anywhere. Anytime. It doesnt disappoint on this channel.🍻
George was a truth teller.
When I was homeless, I helped the homeless. It wasn't hard because I was a go between for the social workers. The homeless trusted me so I bridged that gap of trust and helped while I helped myself. Got an apt and got 2 more off the street and working til alcoholism got 1 and he had to go. ❤ Take care of those that want it, not those you think need it. ❤
They say that the people with less money are often more charitable than those who have a lot of it. Good for you.
@@joeconcepts5552 You speak true.
More Carlin please 🙏. You can never go wrong with him. Thanks 🙏
ALL George's stuff is RELEVANT for today. I LOVE this one!!! ALWAYS HAVE!!
Truth 👏🤣
the mount rushmore of philosophers, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, and George Carlin. This is not a joke, or tongue in cheek, this is absolutely real.
Agree
Carlin was not wrong, either about Americans being a warlike people, declaring "war" on domestic problems (and then not doing anything about them), homelessness, NIMBY, golf courses and cemeteries. He was right about all of it. PLUS, he was funny!
The GOD HIMSELF. Georgie and Richard Pryor are the voices of their generation in Comedy, every single special is poignant and perfection of rhythm.
Chill, hes the big electron of comedy, not the God.
@@MeMyself_andAI just vibrating 😂
GEORGE was a prophet. a completely honest man.....pulled no punches....called bullshit what it is....bullshit. the humor was just icing on the cake.
George Carlin is a national treasure.
14:00
It makes sense….
We are so egotistical, we find it more important for a place to rest while decomposing, than having housing for the downtrodden
George Carlin = Prophet/Comedian
George was a Prophet.
"Let 'em fuck with a windmill for an hour or two, see how good they are"
I almost lost it at that 😅
Actually it pisses me off when people continually say halfway houses equal lots of crime while acting like they are interested in addressing the problem. I lived right next door to a halfway house for a number of years and we never had a single problem with any of the guys who were there and they kept to themselves.
However, we had problems with many people in the neighborhood who were supposedly good people but always causing problems in one way or another. There were always Karen’s ( women or men) who would cause trouble with their neighbors or stick their nose into other people’s business, so I found that the most trouble was with the people in the neighborhood and not with the people who were in the halfway houses. It’s a disservice to people trying to get their lives together to say they are always a problem when they come out of jail and are trying to get back to society. Sure, there are some people who are going to get back into trouble but it’s wrong to categorize them all as being a problem.
"Don't talk about it. Be about it." Perfectly said Tasha.
Can you imagine George as the Speaker Of The House?
Watching Golf on TV is like watching flies fuck. 😂😂 Comedy gold
Tell ‘em how it is George. Absolute legend. R.I.P.
He was so ahead of his time in terms of being on point!!!
Your face when he said cemetaries... priceless!
I understand the perspectives of wanting to help someone and of what that might bring into an area. But George was right. If you can’t make money off of an idea then it won’t happen. The reason Georgia and the city council of Atlanta will not build on the land that is open is because that land has been designated for future building and more development. Tiny houses, low income housing and halfway houses are starting points for those who need a leg up but like George said the idea is all people will support but not the actions of following through which is sad because compassion is probably the most rare emotion that people possess anymore. I’m not talking about spouting off on social media and giving your two cents about how this world is so cold emotionally but real compassion where you see someone actually doing something to help. Doesn’t matter if it’s buying food for a family whose down on their luck or getting an initiative passed through the city council to make sure those in need get help because that’s real compassion and it’s something we desperately need if we’re going to survive in the future.
Carlin is the Goat. I saw him in Pensacola some years back and it was amazing.
I was at this HBO special in NYC 1992. It's the same show as the Saving the Planet routine.
too cool. Did they catch you on camera?
Na, no HD and if you're George looking out I would have been mid left.
@@tntreactions I thought you two should be aware of something important.
Many and I mean many of the homeless are not addicts, have never been addicts.
They are people who have lost their homes.
Usually through not being able to afford it due to the high cost of living.
My husband and I moved back to my home state to become my parents live in care takers.
I had worked but had become more severely disabled and due to the job my husband had, he too became disabled.
I got my disability in 2019 after fighting for it since 2016.
It's now 2024 and we are still fighting for my husbands and we started fighting for his, in 2015.
When my parents died (my mom in 2020) (my dad in 2023). We were promptly kicked out of the house my parents had been renting.
It was owned by my cousins gf.
The house was bought by her in 2004 and the only thing they did was maintain the outside.
She caused such a problem for the judge, that he ordered a city inspection and they were found seriously negligent.
In the end....The court ruled in favor of us and classified them as the worst case of slumlords he has ever seen.
But...We still had to leave as it was her property.
All we had left (besides putting what we could in a storage unit) was our Jeep.
We lived in that from Aug, 2023 to Jan, 2024.
The Jeep broke down, we couldn't afford repairs.
The dealership refused to help.
I lost 12 thousand dollars (that was the total of the Jeep) had it for 9 months and we had nowhere to stay, no money, so we sold it for a quick $500 to get us to my bil's house.
There was a group of about 60 of us. Living at a rest stop.
There were tents in varying places all over.
None of us were addicts, we're all beyond poor and couldn't afford a warm place to live.
Still can't.
That's who many of the homeless are. The beyond poor.
I do not even make $1,000 a month in disability.
Oh, and all those so-called homeless help orginations such as MSHDA, HUD, etc.
It's All a Scam!
I spent 6 months trying to get information.
There's what is known as housing vouchers.
They are meant to help by paying the majority of everything.
However, you can only sign up when they are open.
It's a 2-5 year wait to even get housing.
And you have to practically crawl through the internet to get any semblance of information.
Now, MSHDA does do these vouchers.
The problem comes from the fact when I called them, they lied and sent me on a 6 month wild goose chase.
We almost got help from a smaller place but for some stupid reason, they did not qualify being out in less than a week as valid enough to help.
Now that program no longer exists.
Every single one of them has some sort of excuse, they flat out lie and mislead you.
The they also send the same dead-end information.
MSHDA got billions last year.
Yes, some went to help those already in, but no expansions, no nothing.
Yes, they opened a few new places in other states.
But no expansions in the area we lived in, as it has the highest homeless population in the state.
I just wanted to share the reality of why so many are homeless and for most of us, it has nothing to do with substance abuse.
We literally cannot afford it.
And the COL just keeps getting higher and higher.
Why an established neighorhood?
Gee! Could be because we are still human beings.
I mean...If you want to get real.
You are literally treating an entire group of people (not based on race) as if they are trash.
How does that make you any better just because you weren't screwed over in life?
Meaning....You aren't sick, disabled, you can work to afford things.
Whereas many of us can't.
Why should we be treated as less than?
Sorry, but you two treating an entire group of people as garbage because of their issues.
Issues that are literally not even remotely their fault!
Cause, I didn't ask to be born, let alone born disabled.
It's where I draw the line at supporting, watching, and subscribing.
And yes, people say leave. No need to say bye, blah, blah.
It's a way to shut people down from stating facts, standing up for themselves, etc, etc.
But...I can't support people with such vile and disgusting thoughts on struggling, suffering human beings.
You're both seriously vile!
@@tntreactions You literally called a 61 yr old grandmother garbage.
You called a young struggling single mother garbage.
You called a multitude of varying degrees of struggling people garbage.
These were the people at the rest stop with us and you called them filth.
SHAME ON YOU BOTH!
In Tennessee being homeless is in the same classification as simple assault a felony!
You both seem like good people. I wish you all the best!
If you put social housing all together all you get is a ghetto, in the UK we place a small percentage of social housing in each new build and then you find people will copy other people keeping their property up to a standard not letting the neighbourhood down, add to this, the company owning/renting the properties could put in a caveat that the renters who dont cut the grass, let the property down, dump cars etc could be made to vacate
I love him, he spun truths
Hey, don't forget the football stadiums, baseball stadiums, soccer stadiums, and basketball stadiums we could have a lot of places for the homeless
golf courses. golf courses are my pet peave., I enjoy the game as much as any, but it is an incredible waste of large areas of land and come with as many enviromental problems as benefit
I've never heard of soccer stadiums(at least not in the US)but I kinda see your point however golf courses are frankly more wasteful and pollute more.
You are the only people I have seen on CZcams that I would genuinely love to hang out with.
Absolutely the best.. Carlin 😂
Love George
Nintendo pilots...now we have Drone operators, who many times are plucked from e-streams and such, where COD is second nature to them, to basically play a video game to drop bombs on people and they get desensitized to it because it's just a joystick and a screen. Once again just like many other specials, when he got older he was able to predict the future in a way.
Yes those guys in WW2 who dropped bombs of civilians actually felt terrible about (most of them) even though all of the Axis countries did it first, I sometimes wonder if the current soldiers feel the same way because it is so impersonal.
Sorry about all the typos and the bad English i'm still having fevers because i'm stuck home with Covid.
At least he admited it, being a nimby. I remember my old neighbors fought tooth and nail to keep an Open Arm home, for victims of spousal abuse out of their neighborhood, fearing that it would slow down their soaring home appreciation. This was in downtown Brooklyn so it seemed extra suspicious and hypocritical.
I appreciate your good, eye-opening conversation. Both of you are thoughtful & and honest, and that's half the battle.
Regarding the houseless,
I personally wonder how much it would cost to build shelters where each person or couple gets their own room with a locking door. It can't be that expensive and, I think, it would benefit people so much.
Maybe I'm off but it seems like a good idea to me and would provide safety and a safe place for the houseless to keep their belongings. If only their were a neighborhood where a consensus of people actually wanted to help.
I seen George in NY in 1997. Did a two hour set. Died laughing 😂.
I live in a VERY mixed area, wheren you can find a rental apartment for $300/m and one for $2500 within like 10 minutes of each other, homes of 300k a street from 500k homes near a midrise of 200k apartments overlooking a street of 900k homes from the balconies and such. Since its all mixed there aren't really poor areas or underpoliced/poorly policed areas. Pretty much everything that happens will affect or be witnessed by an affluent citizen, so the service for everyone else is pretty dang good. So yes, halfway houses, rehab centers and prisons are just weaved into the fabric. Is it fair that standards differ based on who lives in an area? Nope, but if you mix the 1-10% that does quite well, it raises the base nationwide, to the point a new halfway house is totally fine for many people since the police can handle it.
Awesome reaction! Laughed so hard!
As a society we are only as good as how we treat our most unfortunate members
Hilarious funny as heck crying while laughing funny😂😂😂😊😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I agree, George was more "i don't give a fuk" when he got older, his best routine was his last HBO special, 70 years old and sharper than most.
Thanks for the Turkish subtitles 😂. I have known George' stand-up comedy since 2010. What a unique personality, what a great man! R.I.P George
He is 100 percent on point about golf. If you want a good Carlin bit, check out his segment called "People who ought to be killed." T's eyes will be bugged out the ENTIRE time.
He ain't lyin'.
Nope the year doesn't matter ....its timeless . Love george ...spread his truth.
The problem is, if not in your neighborhood and not in mine, then where?
Y’all are awesome!!!! Keeping doing what you’re doing!!! ❤
He was a genius and if you look at his life he left school really early but saw the world better than any college professor. It's odd in the aspect of prisons that decades ago they actually did somewhat try and rehabilitate and educate and then it just turned into a giant industry. Then again they also used to have the prisoners doing hard work to discourage them coming back.
The authority needs chaos to stay in business. When they place all of the people with problems in the same neighborhood problems will occur. When sprinkled throughout and given a chance he or she will FINALLY be looked at as who they are as individuals and will be accepted.
because of "Existing Infrastructure" the electrical, water, gas sewer lines
I grew up watching him as a kid loved him wished he was alive he be like I told u in the 90s this shit would happen 😂
You know there was a time and still is when people didn't want you two moving into their backyard. Give that a thought. Being scared of maybe's doesn't help.
Carlin does make you think !
RIP Georgie
The primary reason for Halfway Homes being in neighborhoods is that they tend to use/convert existing homes. More cost effective than creating a new neighborhood and building new homes. And when someone wants to sell they'll sell to them because they're leaving the area.
great reaction guys!
Golf = "Cow Pasture Ping Pong." only instead of cow poop, you have to watch out for goose poop....
When you do snippets it doesn’t do justice, he always brought it around
GOLF has evolved into a video game sport, so there is really no need to take up all that space anymore :)
Football has evolved into a video game sport, so there is really no need for anyone to physically play it.
You see how that sounds?
@@munky342 That's also a waste of space and money, not to mention the insane player salaries, so I agree. Big money sports are not about sports anymore. I'd be happy to see every stadium turned into a public park, botanical garden, bird sanctuary etc. Drunk dads will find another source of entertainment, I'm not worried about that.
Hi Atlanta! From Dahlonega (60 miles up the road from you)
If you liked that video, you should see Robin Williams bit about golf. That was hilarious.
I live in fort worth tx. I am a man of modest means. I used to work in several of the "probjects", aka government subsidisd housing for lower income (well not lower income just those that depended upon on the "government" to sustain them. food stamps, free housing, welfare, the more children you have, the more "benefits" you can acquire. but I digress... one of these projects was actually cleaned up. how? they evicted all the Tennant's and dozed it. now it is just about 4 square blocks of empty land. couldn't the homeless population of used them? granted no electric, no gas, no water but still shelter. another one in east central fort worth was closed, boarded up and left vacant. still standing and police patrol it to insure it remains unused. this "housing" was built and paid for on tax dollars about half a century ago. wake up America!
Hey guys
lovly couple.
Great reaction!
haha george went in
One thing you can bet money on, the right nor the left give a damn about homelessness.
Fascinating to see you uncomfortable with the truth
6:07 she knew it NIMBY
Yeah those golf courses need to go 😅
Speaking of Atlanta: Maybe instead of Cop City, they help people? Just a thought. That's one way to do it.
George Carlin was talking like this during a time that you did not talk like this. The fact that he was at the top of comedy allowed him to share and bring many thoughts to the surface. People today would try to cancel him.
Check out Frankie Boyle: "Audience Annihilation, Part 1". Beware, Frankie is SAVAGE!
I've never understood a game where the whole idea is to score lowest and play least.
Love ya both for the ai.
Thing is, this is how the rest of the world views America. Nothing for your veterans and nothing for the poor! You're the home of the free and the brave and yet more Americans are in jail per capita than any other nation. It's very sad! Another problem is, as a nation you see the WORST in people rather than the BEST! You reap what you sow!
There are many benefits for mixing rich and poor. The rich kids get to play with poor kids and learn about the inequalities of life, the poor families "shape up" since they don't want to look bad.
One can in a way think of it as back in the bad old days when black people were segregated from whites, it doesn't improve the situation, it worsen it
Nice reaction. I surprised with the Turkish captions tho :D
ain't that a surprise? one of the biggest support of murrica from korean war to anything else in mid-east, weren't we? (i mean turkey since nato)
@@sickturret3587 what u said is true, but I'm having a hard time to make a connection :D
I adopted a child who was severely abused... He was beaten and electrocuted all before he could walk. He has flash backs and he needs around the clock care. He is only 13 years old and he lives in a group home. That group home has never bothered anyone. And still people complained when it opened in the beginning. But now since nothing bad has happened these noisy people have shut their mouths.
I think the issue with halfway houses is the fact that it's a bunch of addicts living in a house with not much oversight which can lead to the crime thing ( of course i also am probably not informed enough on it so maybe I'm wrong) but the system doesn't want to help so there could be some validity to my thought
George started out in black n white tv as a comedian set up punch line, then he became a hippie weatherman then he did the 7 dirty words then he became a phylosophyser that was funny he also was Mr. Conductor on Thomas the train
I'd take 3 halfway houses over a cop city.
Cool when they steal your shit....
@@chrischar9428typical bootlicker response
Very good reaction from you both. I've been aware of George Carlin for years, got the bug now to watch his show. From UK
This video was from George Carlin’s 1992 comedy show on HBO called “Jammin’ In New York”. This was shown on live television on April 25, 1992. You can watch the entire one hour show for free on youtube.
@@Mike-rk8px Thanks very much I'll have a look for it on youtube
HEY YOU GUYS!😊SO THIS IS FROM GEORGE'S FAVORITE SPECIAL💯 THAT HE DID ( JAMMIN IN NEW YORK ) 👍
If you don't want to know, don't ask George.
They could use the land in Atlanta that the police are using for a militaristic training ground.
In my neighborhood, sure. At least the people would be more real.
This country is kinda like that one member of the family that EVERYBODY has: you love ‘em, but they just keep doing some s**t that makes you look at them and just shake your head in embarrassment. Like, what century are we living in again?
George had some thoughts
I agree, NIMBY!
All of those magazines are gone now.
Homeless is a lifestyle. I done it, and prolly gonna be there again. I would just go camp
Anybody can point out a problem, coming with a solution separates you from the pack.
if you think there's a solution, you're part of the problem. -George Carlin
Imma be honest the lowest crime area I ever lived in was Palestine, Tx. There's 3 maximum security prisons in Palestine Tx. I'm just sayin...
7:17 yeah, because where else is it supposed to go? Halfway house out in the middle of nowhere? Away from public transit, away from job opportunities, away from counseling, away from their fellow human beings. You'd be telling them that they aren't worth being treated right and aren't worth the effort of rehabilitation.
Still: great reaction, and I look forward to the next one!
You guys shud react to the Video: how Finland endet homellesnrs
😂❤🔥
Am truly curious about the Czech subtitles. Did some research and it's actually Urdu.
A+ reaction….
Two more Carlin programs worth watching: czcams.com/video/2tp0UNcjzl8/video.html Stand up about religion. And czcams.com/video/wjjPlEW9bRM/video.html Balance the Budget.
About drug addicts, not all of them will follow through with treatment and they need money to get drugs, I know I am an addict although I haven’t used since Oct. 1996 but I’m still an addict, used herion for 24 years from 12 to 36, I have no idea what to do about drug addiction because it depends on the person and the level of fedupness and how bad you’ve ruined your life.
We had that argument about a woman’s halfway house and people lost it, I laugh because it’s been there for years but the neighbors just found out. Christian values my butt
