The homeless shelter are all full. This guys is not on private property and is likely not otherwise bothering anyone. Who cares?
The shelters are not full. Many of the homeless not in shelters refuse to go.
I used to live in georgetown and a few chronic homeless were "friends" with some of us in the parks. We tried 50 different ways to help them, and in nearly all cases they refused. Clear mental health problems that gifts of food and clothes were a mere bandage over. Very sad, very eye-opening. I could have bought a house for some of them and they would have slept on the bench outside it. To this day I don't understand it.

I use to love eating my lunch on a park bench, enjoying the fresh air and seeing the people walk by but now with the street people occupying the benches, trash everywhere, and one day seeing a lady half way passed out on a bench with a 2 year old at her side and a syringe in her hand. Like she just shot up. Gross me out. Now I buy my lunch and take it back to the office. The city has become a dump.

My assumption is that when the house passes the bill to allow DC to spend again the bill will include rolling back some of the DC councils progressive decisions. It's an opportunity for DC. Even if you don't agree with the administration, many of us are resigned to the idea that the DC council is not going to fix things.

I don't know what rational person wouldn't want to see a change to this situation.
