[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well the District will have to find a place in the District. I’ve heard that the shelters are so dangerous that the homeless don’t want to go there. They’d rather sleep in the streets. [/quote] More like...you have to be sober to be in a shelter and a lot of people don't want to or can't get sober.[/quote] Yep. For a lot of them it's substance abuse. A shelter can't be any more dangerous than living on the street where any rando might assault you and trash your belongings (and that does happen on the street).[/quote] That happens in the shelters, too.[/quote]
