The city of Portland, Oregon, has set aside $30,000 to pay for bus fares for homeless individuals to leave town.
The program, called Homeward Bound, is similar to programs offered in other cities.
It is intended to help solve the homelessness problem in the city, which is so serious a state of emergency was declared last fall....

See all those homeless, under Obama, the media ignores the problem,but if Trump wins it will be 24/7 Trumps problem. If Hillary wins, they will disappear from the media as if they vanished. I live in Fla., I’ve seen them with their signs and in one instance I recognized the same person I saw in Glen Falls NY in the summer, who was apparently wintering in Fla. I wonder just how many are really homeless. Forget CA, they leave their bumming spot, walk 3 blocks, change their clothes and drive away in their BMW’s. That occurred in the Silicon Valley area.
I wonder how many times that woman has been robbed.
On a Rhine Cruise? Sign me up.
Put them on a dinghy and they can float to Greece.
Atlanta does the same thing. They’re known to force one-way bus tickets on homeless. They send most of them to Columbus, GA.
Personally, I believe cities like Columbus, GA should be able to sue.
The homeless can ride the busses back and forth to different cities.
Cold night out? Hop on a nice warm bus with a potty headed for another city that pays for “free” bus rides. Rinse and repeat.
We should be sending domestic residing jihadis and clerics one-ways to Saudi Arabia.
I can see why she’s homeless. All that junk would never fit into a house.
Sounds like NYC all right!
Kick out the freeloaders thinking easy dope and welfare, so why not go sleep under palm trees and get stoned?
Suddenly these brain dead rabid Oregonian liberals, the same ones who invited these guys in, have suddenly seen the light? The town should be abolished and destroyed, not the poor fools you had so much “pity” for in the first place. Reality sucks, get used to it RATS.
I was just thinking that the State of North Carolina might want to offer its homeless one way tickets to San Francisco.
Send them to Cuba—FREE healthcare in paradise.
SFO is 13 miles from the city. A bus would have to wait for them and take them to St. Anthony’s in the Tenderloin.
You can’t see it but on the back of one of those shopping carts is a bumper sticker that reads, “She who dies with the most shopping carts wins.”
I bet Sheriff Joe has no problems with homeless in his county.
Cities, say like Seattle or Portland, should form tent cities, with strict rules of no drugs or booze. Tightly controlled, with a fence and a guarded gate “to keep the people safe” at night. Let them out in the AM, say around 6:30 or so, a wake-up call would be nice. The people will move on, make sure the fence and gates can also be moved quickly. Rinse and repeat, suddenly the city that initiates this kind of service will be without a homeless problem. Most assuredly, the homeless that live in these tent cities will not be out robbing and assaulting hard working citizens.
Not under Rudy, it wasn’t.
Take them across the border to Mexico to make a small dent in balancing out the number of illegals coming to the U.S. The new residents of Mexico will be illegal and unable to speak the language in Mexico, so it’s a fair trade. We’ll see how Mexico deals with the influx, as compared with the U.S.
