Of would you stay in some safer place like…. your park ?

As long as they commit no crime its their park too ? Everyone who worked paid taxes to build out parks before becoming homeless and still pay taxes for every purchase made.

If they commit a crime you may have them arrested.

If they do no harm why can’t they stay in their park ? Our park ?

The homeless community has already figured out the vast majority of the crimes are being committed by people not from here… non-homeless.

Aside from car break ins, crimes against homeless people are many more times greater than crimes against non-homeless.

Life expectancy in a homeless shelter is about 40 years of age (almost half) compared to people who do not stay in a shelter.

Parks that were built with our tax money often keep us safer and costs less than staying in many shelters and SRO’s in this City.

Also, the air is much cleaner and reduces community risk of TB which has been imported by immigrants and visitors from other countries and states.

Staying in compact shelters where staff are hired without reasonable standards makes the homeless captive victims of crimes every day.

Then the cops try to criminalize them for sleeping in safe places.

Then the credit bureaus lock them out of ‘eligibility’ for jobs and housing.

Then the cops re-arrest you as a scofflaw. Any monthly check they need to rebuild their lives is eaten up in court, police, credit, false eviction, banking fees by garnishment or as a pre-condition to new chance to rent at higher rates than everyone else, lower wage, unstable work, bad food and lower health due to all that everyone else have done to them, beyond their immediate control.

Canned like a sardine.
Kept unhealthy.
Victimized.
Criminalized.
Treated like dirt,

not because of what they do but because of the FEAR inside the minds of people who assume they are to blame for whatever.

The punks come in from other cities, cause havoc and blame the homeless so you are all preoccupied with us and they do their thing while cops are rounding up innocent homeless accused by people who ‘think’ they are to blame…

Cool trick played on us all by the out of towners… works every time until you all wake up… and see the patterns and -listen- to the homeless that were not homeless last year…
