[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These particular people are REALLY trying to start s hit with this newest tent. After spending forever in the encampment on the street and feuding with neighbors (who did probably steal their stuff to clear the encampment in the middle of the night...) they are NOT currently unhoused. Housing was obtained for them through city vouchers and they are not living on the street.

So why the tent? They like to come back during the day to hang out and sell their wares/do drugs and panhandle there. That's it. I have no sympathy at this point, they have adequate housing and just want to use a small tent as a drug den and hangout spot. Knowing how fed up everyone was with the situation I think they're being intentionally provocative. I'm not going to do it, but I bet that tent "goes missing" at some point when they're at their new home[/quote]

They sound like complete a**- hats of the above is true[/quote]

They're total assh*t trash and people shouldn't waste their compassion on feeling sorry for them. Care about people who truly need help. These two are housed and fine, they're just grifting as they always grift. Grift isn't it all, they also have rap sheets a mile long with many cases of assault, some with a deadly weapon.  I too want the homeless housed, but defending these total assholes is really not the hill you want to die on. [/quote]
