If you wanted to end the whole ‘game’, just pass a city camping ‘fee’ of $20 a night within the city limits. No ‘fee’? Your tent is confiscated, and you get seven days in the city jail. The whole game would dissolve in six weeks, and they’d move to another city.
As for the shelters....I’d only allow you into a shelter if you passed a mental/drug test.

Some people in the council chamber erupted in yells of "Shame!" That's the problem. Stupid liberals oblivious to the suffering they cause.
America's gotta go Sheriff Joe on these dope addict deadbeats. Give'm a place to sleep (a cot in a cage) and one meal a day (PBJ and water) until they get it together.

We need to reopen psychiatric hospitals.

That’s really it.
I do worry that we would end up with 50 million people institutionalized, but we need to start somewhere and starting with just getting the homeless of the street and into an institution would be the best place to start. But beyond that, most of society seems to be somewhat mentally ill. I’m serious.

So I guess 11 blocks away is fine.

“Gotta find a way to ban RATS. Let’s go Brandon.”
And this is the real problem. Cause and effect. They created their own homeless problems.

Not for the homeless, but for the politicians who created the homeless.

Citizens are long overdue to have protective Locust Laws.
The punishment for violating them is to be sentenced to live at politicians' houses.

Miami and Houston do a good job at keeping the drug addicted mentally ill homeless numbers down. Other cities should follow their lead.
To: ClearCase_guy
It would only be treating the symptoms and not curing the cause.

Why is everyone stereotyping the homeless as all drug addicted and mentally ill?
I have worked with the homeless most of my life and this is just not true at all.

Best way to silence the libs yelling “SHAME!” is to find the home address of each and every one of them then drop off ten of the collected homeless at their front yard. Belongings and all. Of course they will yell “SHAME!” again but for a completely different reason. Leftist kooks hate it when their hypocrisy is plainly on display.

"The ordinance restricts homeless camps from being set up within 10 blocks of the city's temporary homeless shelters." Note the homeless shelter in the middle.
Note the homeless tent encampments 10 blocks from the homeless shelter.
