Put the City of Phoenix Mayor and her Demonicrat chain of command in jail until the court order cleanup is carried out.
We cannot truly fix most drug addicts and mentally ill homeless people. Best we can do is move them out of the way.
Prison camps can be built cheaply way out in the desert. Call them "treatment facilities" and call it good.
Or spend some real money on asylums with more humane treatment for the inmates. Like we once did.
It's not for them. It is for us.
Only really powerful people are in a position to deny an ask.
The rest of us are relegated to denying requests.
There’s no seriousness when it comes to homelessness in these progressive paradises. People in temporary need often have no recourse particularly if you don’t have children in tow. The chronically homeless don’t want responsibility or can’t take responsibility for their lives but that’s where the resources are spent. Tent cities and overlooking use of downtown sidewalks as restrooms is not a viable solution.
I have helped the housing insecure going so far as to open my home at times yet I’m amazed to see they end up back in the same situation. I don’t have the wealth to be a permanent meal ticket. I also don’t want to be drowned by such situations. It’s at great risk and cost emotionally and financially. They can turn to emotional blackmail or threats as well. One of my good friends has had various group homes through her charity and discovered some people don’t want to fix the fundamentals in their lives.
At what point to we say a person has to be accountable for themselves or failing the capacity to thrive on their own be subject to a guardianship? The system is revolving door that does too much for some which it didn’t really help and nothing for others who might avoid an unrecoverable fall with a little guidance and temporary assistance. If you’re a single person with no kids and not on drugs or mentally ill you find you’re not a priority for anyone. It’s shameful
They still have until July 10. What happens if they don’t do it? Obviously a contempt of court charge.
Didn’t Phoenix used to have a large outdoor area where prisoners were kept? I know that the ‘new sheriff’ made a big deal of taking it down, but I’d assume the vacant land is still there and maybe the tents and cots used might still be in storage.
Or, as we locals call it, the "Toasty" time.
“ask”? in the headline?

Solved.
One just has to laugh at this “...without the burdens of a judicially imposed cleanup...”
Seriously? That is the semi-polite way to say, “Your Honor? We would like to thumb our noses at you, should you just grant us permission to do so. 👍🐽”
