Our Prop B passed. But city council may not let cops enforce it!

Out of sight outta mind. The hotels the city purchased will be trashed in no time. The crime will be bad enough that le will have to step in and the neighbors around these areas will eventually get them boarded up due to these problems.Really? You have no "realistic" solution as to what to do with the homeless population? Figures.
Large percentage of these folks dont want to go to shelters. Best thing to do is buy a big field in the country and bring the homeless there and let them run and play in the beautiful sunshine.Originally Posted by winn dixie

Do you have a solution that doesnt cost the tax payers for these dead beats! Do you think allowing them to camp anywhere is good? Safe?No I do not. But there has to be a better answer than simply telling them to disappear with no options. My church supports the Community FIrst Village. We also support Mobile Loves and Fishes which supports in part the homeless. And the Austin food bank.
The out of luck homeless look for ways to better themselves! The majority though are just a dredge on society!
Solution? Let the libs that worship these folks have them live with them!

They come to town for the festivals and the tolerant people and easy drugs that come with liberally minded folk.
