Apparently very few of the people here have ever been in a desperate situation. Having your every worldly belonging destroyed is devastating, and it's not a human who would do that to someone.

Not only that, while there are places set up specifically for the homeless, these dudes don’t go there and instead just squat on any park they please.
I love them unconditionally. But the rules and laws are in place to prevent anarchy such as this. They choose to give us all the bird and cry when consequences are applied.

It's just reaching critical mass in a lot of areas and people are running low on patience. It's rare that I can go downtown anymore and not have some sort of negative interaction, whether it be super aggressive panhandling or having nonsense yelled at me by a crazy guy on the corner. We've had two rapes and a tourist assaulted in the last two weeks, all perpetrated by homeless guys.
I feel for the ones that have truly just fallen on hard times or mentally ill, but a lot of the time, the homeless are their own worst enemy.
