[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see this thread has devolved into the expected moralizing. Can't wait to get back to inventing reasons why this plan is worse for the homeless than DC general. [/quote]

No inventions.  Many very legitimate, substantive, serious and non-NIMBY points have been raised about many aspects of the plan.  They were not addressed.

If you want to get back on topic and defend your off-base "invented" comment then maybe you ought to think about coming up with some better answers.[/quote]

NIMBYs always think they have a case.  Saying the city needs to figure out the magic answer to homelessness in order to be worthy of putting a shelter in your neighborhood is a red herring.  [/quote]

Still no answers, I see...   Just build 8 mini DC Generals without dealing with why DC General was such a horrific mess in the first place.  You don't understand anything.[/quote]

Nope, no answers. Just a lot of claims. Its really long and eloquent but I think can be reduced to this: There is no ideal spot but in this spot there will be no impact on police, no impact on eaton, no impact on property values. We couldn't run DC general but in this spit a crack team of 15 experts wil, and there will be lots of community/not for profit partnerships to solve everything dc general couldn't (does she know being a not for profit doesn't mean they work for free -sometimes they charge the most).
What I didn't see was how all this happens. Where's that?[/quote]
