Sounds like an unpleasant choice.Sumela » 21 Sep 2023, 1:56 pm » wrote: ↑ Russia and China have this figured out.
Its why their streets/parks are free from tents, addicts, homeless....and their cities, streets, sidewalks are so clean.
1. folks know they will be arrested. No choice.
2. those who are picked up are given two options.
a. jail, or...
b. take a job keeping cities clean and receive a small check and tiny apartment/flat.
In America, the problem will never be solved - just like most problems.

Good one.
I still agree with this. However, I want to mention something. When I was a teen, me and my buds liked to F- with bums when we'd go into town. Nothing violent, just would scream things at them like get a job, lazy bum, worthless whatever. Sure, they were alcoholics and drug addicts, and sure at some point they likely did this to themselves.PhiloBeddo » 21 Sep 2023, 1:29 pm » wrote: ↑ Kick their drugged out asses off the streets and get rid of the drugs.
Damn!!! That would mean the poleece would have to get off their asses and out of the donut shops because they damn sure aren't fighting violent crimes like looting, murders, etc...impartialobserver » 21 Sep 2023, 1:39 pm » wrote: ↑ Would you have the police spend all of their time and resources on this? Its not exaggeration.. in most cities, if they were to arrest and police every instance of homelessness.. they would have zero time/energy left for anything else. Its simple reality.. like it or not.

Round up all the worthless street dwellers and put them in tent cities out in the desert and tell them to fend for themselves or whatever.
**** do-gooders and lax laws just exacerbate the problem!!!

Shameful the way we treat the people that defend our country.

Which?impartialobserver » 22 Sep 2023, 12:23 pm » wrote: ↑ Most cities are not willing to build the 3rd item into their budgets. All cities have homeless but some more than others and it always comes down to budgets. If you honestly want to know what cities have the most homeless.. google searches are not your friend. The statistics given on the sites that you find are based on models.. meaning that they are guesses. If you want an actual count.. you go to the city government directly. Having done so myself because i am a data analyst/programmer.. care to guess what 3 have the most per capita?

US Cities/govts ALWAYS have the money for what they make a priority.
Russia/China made this issue a priority 20 years ago. And they resolved it.
Another American issue that will never be resolved...impartialobserver » 22 Sep 2023, 12:31 pm » wrote: ↑ 1. Seattle

4. Los Angeles
But.. but... SF has to be in there. Not on a per-capita basis. Now, these numbers are as of dec. 31, 2022. Most cities only do the count once per year. Why would they do this? You need a count not an estimate for certain budget items.
