I’ve been 4 or 5 times and smelled and saw all of those things and have no desire to go back.

Complaining about smells

Saw EMS loading one up at the corner of orleans and Claiborne. Maybe they are grabbing them one at a time but their presence is much less withFQF going on.

Was down there for last 4 days . Didn’t see any from convention center to Frenchman St Also saw that the underpass at Loyola has been cleaned up only a few patrons

They have bigger problems than homeless people down there. Like the smell that would knock a possum over and piss, shite, and throw up in the streets

that's the damn truth.....


Rounding up people for being free is the most authoritarian shite ever. Why is being homeless a crime????

Lets tally the score...

Yall don't want homeless people...

Yall don't want housing assistance or food stamps

Yall don't expect employers to foot the entire bill for their employees actual production costs

Yall don't want to pay directly for poor peoples health insurance but youre OK with paying for their health care and the related collections efforts

Yall are perfectly fine with zoning ordinances though I'd bet.....cause god forbid you see some ugliness in your daily travels

Yall don't want to spend any money on mental health

I am assuming yall want poor people to either get unpoor or die....very jesus like

Yall don't want wages going up because high wages destroy indurtries but you also don't want illegal immigrants doing jobs at low wages....

Yall want low unemployment and low wages

Yall realize that none of that is going to happen without state intervention, right....and yet you want no or very little state intervention.....youre living in a dream world.

Not true dawg, but if we could solve those issues here on the board I'd love to talk to you about them.

I don't want to pay for people that WON'T work, or WON'T support their own.

Let's start by not identifying them as only homeless. How about drug addicted alcoholics who have fried so many brain cells that they are fricking nuts. The homeless label is a direct result of laziness and drug abuse. Sometimes anarchy experiments have consequences. Spare me the fricking muh big pharma hooking me on da opioids. GFY ya bum!
