re: Homeless shitting in streets, rats spreading...

How about fines for giving them money? Would a good portion of them stay homeless if they were never given cash to feed their addiction. To be fair, people could still give them food, water, clothes, blankets, etc. It’s too easy for them to beg for money and get enough in a few hours to feed their addiction.

We should also have a tiered system for any and all homeless who want help.

Phase one would be detox and physical recovery. All ailments and physical needs are met to get them in good condition for phase two.

Phase two would be to teach them how to interview for jobs, possibly teach them a trade, some light schooling if they need it, how to find a rental, how to manage money, communication skills, etc.

Phase three would be a halfway house to put what they learn into action. Cheap rent and resources staffed on premise to help them through first 6-12 months. They would then graduate and be sent out to live on their own. Resources would still be available if needed such as a counselor or resource worker.

Instead of giving homeless money, if these same people donated to the above scenario, allowed churches to get involved, mixed in with some government funding to cover the difference, I believe it could work.

People screw up in life. As a society, overall, we need to do a bit more to recognize that. There are too many 'zero defects' environments. Let people fail and let them resurrect themselves.

Very, very few want to resurrect themselves. The homeless population in Asheville is growing by leaps and bounds because city leaders cater to them. When you make it easier to live on the street, then more people will choose to do so.

This ain't rocket science. I'd rather incarcerate them for vagrancy than have them live in a public park. Most are drug addicts who are of NO VALUE WHATSOEVER to society as long as they are on the streets.

I honestly don't have an answer, but I know that catering to them only increases their numbers.

The problem is that the big cities with all of these homeless people don’t have a clue how to fix the issue . The things they try like taxing big corporations only makes more people homeless in the city by chasing away the jobs .

One idea that one of the cities should start is taking over a large old hotel and let them live in it . Have a floor that serves food . If a you can get on a cruise for $50 a day why can’t we house people in large hotel for much cheaper then this . Ultimately it would be the way to go for people on welfare too. It’s saves the government a lot of money , cleans up the streets and opens up a lot of land for development.

Straight talk - Id seriously be okay with homeless people being euthanized.

Your fellow Trumpkin HHTM suggests they should be corralled in a "massive" camp out west. Maybe something in mind of what Hitler attempted??

You've said that Republicans should support abortion (secretly of course) because the vast majority of aborted babies are black. Now the homeless should be euthanized. Very telling that you didn't get any blowback from your fellow Trumpkins.

It's a fascinating thing to watch how Donald Trump has affected y'all.

oh, don't forget to mention that we are going to throw the sexual mentally ill like yourself off of the highest building !!!....

Anyone hear Gutfeld talk about this... he said Dr Drew was telling him how serious these major cities with large homeless population that are shitting in the streets have a major health pandemic risk due to rats spreading it around the city...

This shite, literally needs to get solved fast

I've told this story before on this forum, but it's perfectly appropriate for a re-telling in this thread.

My wife was a flight attendant for 13 years, towards the end of her time doing that particular job she worked the trans-continental flights from JFK to either LA or San Fran. One day from San Fran she sends me a video of what looks like the back of an elderly woman from the mid-point of her torso up. The angle is odd because, although my wife is only 5'2", the angle is downward. At the end of it (maybe a total of 15 seconds) a cop car passes by and keeps on rolling.

My wife informed in follow-up texts that they were waiting at the bus stop and the old woman just decided to drop her pants, squat and take a shite. Right there, middle of a group, cops driving by...

The more "solutions" we have, the more homeless you'll have.

It's the "build it and they will come" phenomenon.

Close...Mission Viejo area.

Irvine was one of the areas chosen for encampment too.

Have you seen that YouTube documentary about the homeless encampment that stretches like 2 miles around the stadium in Anaheim?

Hoy shite.

You would most likely have to raise taxes to get some government funding and Republicans don't want to spend money on the poor and homeless.
