I may get flamed, or banned, but just want to ask what others think.
Why can’t we round up homeless and put them somewhere? Put them somewhere where they will get help, but someplace where they have to go if they have no fixed address.
Why have we allowed vagrancy to get to such levels?
Some parts of San Francisco, which is very liberal with their homeless, smells like urine, due to critical numbers of such people.
It is not good for the people involved, nor good for society, to have all these people sleeping, and eating and every other function out in the streets.
If you have no place to live, I don’t understand why society has to just tolerate the situation. . Why?? To prove how liberal we are, how compassionate we are, we as a society have decided that doing nothing about homeless people is the best solution.
What is compassionate about letting people, some of whom are clearly not all there, live in the streets, exposed to the elements and exposed to criminals, getting hit by cars, and other hazards????
Not flamed or banned, as far as I am concerned.
I’ve read your post several times and I’m working on a response.
In support.
The idiot LIBs closed mental hospitals in the 60’s and70’s because they felt the crazy needed freedom. Freedom to be assaulted...to be raped...to be untreated...to die. Idiot LIBs. I suspect most of these LIB idiots were afraid that ghey would eventually be committed. Lunatics all.
A very large percentage of the homeless are mentally ill.
Homelessness is a symptom, not the problem.
Mental illness is a much harder problem than housing.
