A 2015 count tallied 88,250 homeless people in New York, statewide -- the highest homelessness rate since the Great Depression.

Wait a sec.....something isn't right.

I thought there were homeless only during Republican administrations.

Does anyone remember how the media used to lambast Reagan for the alleged homelessness problem?

I also thought that besides lowering the sea level, 0bama was going to solve all these problems.

What's up?

[BenLurkin]

WHO does he think he is to ORDER people into shelters?

Did America somehow die over the holidays?

[2banana]

Eight years of hope and change

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

So, if there is not enough shelter space, they’re supposed to break into private residences to obey his orders?

[BenLurkin]

He’ll just have to order selected property owners to let a homeless person sleep on their couch.

[dfwgator]

Open up the Governor’s Mansion then.

[ButThreeLeftsDo]

You just know that’s coming.

[PROCON]

Can he ORDER people off of gun ranges? Out of Gun stores?

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Whoa, WHAT? “A 2015 count tallied 88,250 homeless people in New York, statewide — the highest homelessness rate since the Great Depression.”

Simply not possible. Everybody knows homelessness simply doesn’t exist when you have Dem Mayors, Dem Governors, and Dem POTUS.

Brook Hays...report for re-education immediately and turn in your journalism “degree” forthwith.

[Damifino]

Perhaps he should also order them to eat cake when they are hungry.

[Norm Lenhart]

Died 2 elections ago. Some folks didn’t notice.

[rktman]

“Well, not my house of course. That’d be crazy.”

[digger48]

The UN building would make a dandy homeless shelter.

Kicking those professional deadbeats out of the country would save us billionzzz and billionzzz

[wrench]

Just give them all one way tickets to Hawaii. Problem solved.......

[Oztrich Boy]

They are also ordered to come in out of the rain

[PROCON]

LOL, that would keep them warm but I read recently that Hawaii has a major homelessness problem too.

Hmmm, homelessness ALL in democratic jurisdictions; you'd think the media would report on this.

[fieldmarshaldj]

Ordered, huh ? He does know that a lot of them are mentally ill, doesn’t he ? Is he prepared to reopen state asylums ?

[PROCON]

You’ll love this one.

What’s the difference between a hobo and a homo?

A hobo doesn’t have any friends.
A homo has friends up the a**.

"The directive goes into effect Tuesday."

24 hours too late.

Monday, the night temp is predicted to be 3F.

There will be a lot of frozen stiff homeless on Tuesday morning.
