[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Show me a plan that gives us the best chance of addressing the roots of homelessness and provides services most efficiently, and you'll get my support.  Don't try to bully me with insults and accusations.[/quote]

You seem to have ignored my response to you that didn't include insults or accusations. But, as I said, the current plan is clearly aimed at families. That's even in the legislation. Given that the occupants of the new shelters will be resettled from DC General and single men are not placed in DC General, from where do you suspect single men would come?

If DC manages to solve its homeless family problem and these shelters find themselves with empty space, I could envision homeless single men being housed there. But, I don't think you need to hold your breath in expectation of the family homeless problem being solved. Moreover, you really can't expect homeless single men to remain on the street simply because you don't want them in your neighborhood.
