Meridian, Ms. With a Republican Governor and a Republican Mayor.
Talk about out of touch with reality. Perhaps it's me out of touch. I do believe some of these fine folks need to be on the SERVICE end of these TEMPORARY shelters. Change a few diapers, serve and COOK a few meals, give a lending hand. Bail a few out of jail, explain a few wife beatings, etc. AND then be told you are NOT doing enough. THEY aren't getting all THEY were promised.
dang....
Our little town have taken in 200, now down to 50 or less. I spent about 10 hours there this week-end and will be back tomorrow for the lunch shift. Either I haven't heard about it, doubtful, or there have been no problems. From what I'm reading and hearing, the smaller these shelters can be kept, the better. I'm sorry that you got stuck with, what sounds like, ingrates. :-(
