Another Obamaville will sprout up someplace else.

This is what they need to be constantly called.

That is very uninviting of them. Where is their Socialist councilman? I’m sure the good people of Seattle can be more magnanimous and provide a nice $15/hour job for these people as well as provide them a house, car, clothing, and a decent cat and/or dog.

Words fail me.

"...We’re dealing with a difficult population that is a little jaded about the services that are provided..."

Well, isn't that special. How about providing no services at all, and see how damned jaded they feel about that?

They don’t want housing. A bum cannot carry drugs, show up high and drunk, and act civilized with public housing. In my city they have hot meals, showers, TV and private cots for the homeless and they are still under the bridges because they don’t want that stuff. They want drunk, random sex, drugs, crap on the ground.

Must be the ‘in’ thing to do. Dallas just tried to shut down its largest homeless camp, sending the tramps into other areas of town.

[Awgie]

Ha! Another example of progressives/liberals/socialists/democrats (they keep changing names so we cant get a scope on them), screwing up. Bums infesting public places celebrated as homeless victims of a white racist capitalist society. Mini Cuba/Venezuela.

This just can’t be. We are in a golden erase of prosperity that makes the Reagan-Bush years look like the Depression.

Seattle is not the only city shutting down homeless encampments. Dallas recently cleared out an encampment under the I-45 overhead near downtown. Funny, I don’t remember seeing these during Bush’s two terms in office.
