    How about allocating that money to repair one of those vacant hotel casinos and give them room and board like a shelter does. The city makes enough money...

    "Don't use AC as your dumping ground"
    So people that are homeless are trash? Btw trying to police this problem away is the most expensive option. You're going to pay more for the "perk" of being cruel.

      Now that more Democratic cities move away from mandatory minimums for drug offenders, they have to refill the industrial corrections complex somehow, no?

      When rents are out of sight, people have no choice but to be homeless.

    Wont ever go there again. If i want to be stalked and harassed into buying garbage i will visit my local dump. Public beaches are simply not worth visiting anymore. Would prefer to go private if i ever return to the area. We use to go every year but havent been in over 5 years or more. Not my kind of place at all.

    Let's not commit more funds to reducing homelessness itself...just make it illegal. Personally, if I were homeless...which I have been, I would prefer to keep a small footprint/profile and stay far away from high-traffic areas.

      But liquor stores are in high traffic areas. If you pass an area and you think to yourself hmmm there seems to be a lot of homeless in this area, my guess is there’s a liquor store within walking distance. Additionally high volume areas provide homeless people income through panhandling that they use to supplement their disability checks. So “homeless” are rarely in isolated areas.

      Nowadays with online gambling, you can bet and lose the house without ever leaving home.

    If they had any guts, they'd go after the root of the problem, the open air fentanyl market along Atlantic Ave from Indiana to Tennessee. They're just interested in photo ops and perception
