[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If I was the Mayor of DC, I’d bus/fly out any homeless person who wasn’t born in DC or lived here for at least 20+ years. So many are coming from dumpy Red States or the dumpy Red parts of Blue states in search of drug. Once they get caught on a charge, they get escorted to their place of birth by an MPD officer on paid duty to cross state lines.

City Mayors really need to take a hardline on outsiders who come from elsewhere. [/quote]

I’m sure homeless addicts will gladly produce birth certificates.[/quote]

Vital records are all databased. A homeless person already has fingerprints in the system. Hell, if I was mayor, I’d hire a team of 5-6 researchers to figure out where they came from, track down next of kin, etc.

If you come in DC to do drugs and camp in public and generally be a nuisance, you get sent back to where you came from. If DC is your legit home, we will try to get you wrap-around services. The end.

Communities need to take care of their own and stop dumping their problems onto big cities. [/quote]

MoCo's model is to attract homeless people thru generous programs, all at the expense of the declining number of taxpayers in MoCo.[/quote]
