The homeless being on the streets shows a lack of caring in the country.
It is dangerous to spend the night outside at the mercy of different predators. There are criminals outside and people who will take advantage of them. One homeless veteran was killed in Phoenix and set on fire before or after dying.
As they say having the child molestors and other offenders with nowhere to go outside can put others at risk. Because some are not allowed in the shelters they can then become a menace. There should be somewhere else for them but perhaps not the shelters.
They can be a danger to themselves and others. I am not saying it should go back to forcing them all into institutions. It is like when San Francisco let them all out of the hospitals and then they had no help and bothered others.
They can create bad conditions. It can be a danger for others to walk past them. They can ruin others businesses and the business owners resent them. They can harrass others.
If visitors see the homeless in the street it looks bad for the United States. In a land with so much money and gifts why should these people be living with nothing and no one to care about them?
I know there are people who care but the system is broken and many are at their wit's end.
My heart goes out to homeless people. h5 for you opinions.
Thanks for the info. H5
