[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't many homeless shelters close during the day? That's never made sense to me, but libraries seem to be a temperature-controlled, [b]fairly safe[/b] fallback for those on the streets. I agree that there should be other welcoming public facilities open to them during the day, but often there are not.[/quote] When homeless get to be "fairly safe" in the library, they make it [i]less safe[/i] for everyone else, especially women and children. Great solution. :roll: :roll: :roll: [/quote] Some homeless people actually are women and children.[/quote] Woman and children get put on the top of all lists to be homed. Generally when they sign up with social services they are pretty quickly put into temporary motels if need be.[/quote]
