[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't believe you all live around this. That article says an example of an injustice against the homeless was a cafe trying to clear an encampment so they could actually have outdoor seating for their customers. What is it you all are trying to achieve? Drug addicts shooting up wherever?[/quote] What are you trying to achieve? Where do you think the people should live?[/quote] It’s definitely complicated but in this country most people who are homeless are choosing to be (to avoid restrictions placed in them by shelters.) [/quote] Absolutely untrue. A passing glance at housing costs in this area should disabuse you of this notion.[/quote] The people in question in the article weren't pushed out of housing because it got expensive. They are addicts. They deserve our sympathy and help, but pretending they made no choices to put themselves on the street is disingenuous at best.[/quote]
