This. But progressives want homeless peeing and pooping on everything everywhere even as they make it impossible to build housing by being wailing nimbies. Time to move someplace sensible.
Precisely.

Why are you all trying to blame this on the homeless people?

I'm assuming this has more to do with the homeless problem in DC than it does with Union Station. They just hang out there because it's out of the elements.
No. They hang out because Amtrak doesn't have a policy of evicting the homeless. It's been that way for a long time.
I don't think "homeless" has to be synonymous with violent and mentally ill or drug addicted.
DMV's weak approach to public safety puts all of us at risk in public spaces.
Homeless pretty much does equate to mental illness and/or alcoholism and/or drug addiction. Normal functioning individuals do not choose to live on the streets and defecate in public.
Exactly. DC does nothing effective to help them.
