[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't live in the area, huh, OP? [/quote] You're a really insensitive person. I lived in the District for 10 years before moving to the suburbs. It's very sad to see people get displaced without a good alternative. [/quote] Did you even read the article you quoted, you nitwit? [/quote] Of course I did. Where does it say anything that conflicts with what I wrote? There is NO good alternative. The shelters they cited are often not safe. [/quote] Exactly - shelters are where unaccompanied women are often sexually assaulted, and both men and women are subject to bed bugs and constant theft to where they can't even sleep for fear of losing the little belongings they have. Oftentimes, they show up to a shelter at 6am waiting for 5pm because if they are full, they are turned away. Do you think if the majority of homeless people actually had a safe warm place to stay that they would choose to? There are only a minority that due to drugs and mental illness choose to not have a home. You're a moron.[/quote] So your solution is to . . . what? Let them stay under the overpass? [/quote]
