I had not heard this one yet. Is there a relationship between Trump and homelessness or homeless poop?


So are you saying that the GOO is anti-public excrement on benches and the “progressives” are ok with it?! If that’s the case, I may need to rethink my politics.


DP

What she’s saying is that only fragile white republicans get upset about such trivial things. We just lived through a coup attempt that if successful would’ve meant certain death for nearly everyone here - and yet people are exorcized about a little poop. Get your priorities in order. We’re at war.


Lololololololol.

I can’t believe DCUM is still going on about Jan 6 as if it was an actual thing. Hahahahahahahahahaha

Just ignore it. Don’t sit on public benches. It isn’t going to change.

Spend that time looking to move out of a disgusting, poorly run city.

What you are suggesting is actually dangerous. Also, where would the poop then be disposed of? Again, dangerous. Human faeces c series disease. And we pay taxes for proper hygiene in the city .

Lol! There are absolutely zero employees of the city that care one hoot about a poopy bench. You people have to stop being so fragile.


I'm not sure what point you are making. You proposed that citizens take over the government job of properly and safely removing biohazard, and you were rebutted. Pardon the pun.


Rebutted? Hardly. You need a dictionary.

It's just not that dangerous.

And "we pay taxes!!"" is the most pathetic sort of complaint there is. Yes, in a perfect world, this wouldn't be an issue. But that's not where we live. So either roll up your sleeves, pull on those gloves, and get scrubbing, or don't, and leave it there. But you're just not going to have a city employee at your beck and call to clean up for you, Karen.


I’d take a Mayor Karen over Mayor Muriel any day. We want a competent mayor who sweats the details and cares about public health and quality of life issues.

Why anyone thinks that NYC in the 70s is some acceptable municipal model is completely baffling.


This is the thing!! We have lived through this nonsense quite recently, in living memory. Why on earth are Progressives dragging us back into that nonsense and ordinary citizens allowing themselves to be brainwashed into supporting it?! It wasn't just NYC, it was most major cities, including right here in DC.


Sigh. No one has said that it's acceptable, only that you're not going to get someone to come out and clean it up in a timely manner. So, if you really want it cleaned quickly, the only option is to do it yourself. You need to live in reality.

Or, you could continue to bleat about it on DCUM. That'll be sure to get it cleaned up faster.


Why isn’t Mary Cheh on it?

Have you never picked up poop before? You turn a bag inside out, grab it, pull the bag around it, and tie it off. Wear gloves of you feel its necessary. If you want, wipe any residue with a clorox wipe, stuff it in the bag, and then throw it away (in *your* garbage, not a neighbor's can or a public, bagless can).

Is it pleasant? No. Should you have to do it? Again, no. Is it dangerous? Of course not. Don't be a ninny.

But if you prefer, a third option is to wait for the rain, and continue to let if fester
there while continually asking for a city employee to come deal with it.


I believe human faeces is meant to be taken to the waste treatment facility, not put in the garbage for sanitation workers to deal with during pick up and sorting. But it's interesting that you want residents to walk with Clorox, gloves and adequate water blocks from their house to clean poop at bus stops and discard it inappropriately. Or would you like us to then drive it down to the Anacostia treatment facility? Perhaps you should brush up on the fairly recent San Diego hepatitis outbreak . Do we really need another epidemic? Because your advice of amateur citizen poop patrols will surely aid and abet one

"San Diego hepatitis A outbreak ends after 2 years" https://apnews.com/article/cc40b8c476ef469ebdc2228772176b03


Your suggestion is that people cleaning up poop will make a hepatitis outbreak worse? OK.

You also could take it home and flush it, you know.

I think that OP is trying to avoid the usual, "It's not your sidewalk" arguments that any DCUM discussion involving homeless people turns into. They are simply accepting that the City has decided these people have a right to camp in these spaces and are asking "now, how do we remove the poop?"


Then it’s not the homeless person’s sidewalk either. They have no right essentially to privatize public space, any more than others do.

DP. If OP has accepted all of that, then I think the next step is accepting that you remove the poop with your hands.
