  • Tacoma Housing Now, an advocacy group, has occupied a Fife motel since Christmas Eve after booking 16 rooms for 43 people experiencing homelessness. Fife police are looking to find them shelter, but the motel manager feels he is not being supported.

    So they show 3 young men who are more then capable of working, 1 sleeping, the other doing the interview and another playing Candy crush.
    Get real folks, send those young men to a temp agency so they can pay for the room.
    Yeah let’s defund the police and send hard earned tax payer dollars to kids who like to sleep throughout the day and play on there phones.
    GTFOH!

      As a matter of fact, there’s a temp agency literally across the street from there. Take all your lazy asses over there!

    These crazy kids should open up their home 365 days a year for the homeless and destitute. If you choose to do that good for you. YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO FORCE OTHERS TO DO IT. THAT'S CALLED DEMOCRACY.

      No DEMOCRACY means 50 people can out vote your 49 and MAKE you do it. A Constitutional republic is what actually protects you NOT DEMOCRACY. This is Commie rules Mob Democracy

    The city needs to put these kids to work cleaning up the city or digging ditches. Good food and safe housing in exchange for an honest days work. This is not rocket surgery.

      Problem is these folk gotta actually show up to those jobs. There’s plenty of farms in the area too that could use a hand I bet but it’s legit hard work and these kids don’t want to do it. I can respect a certain number of these folks have real impediments to manual labor but there’s plenty of data entry jobs could use them. But all in all they gotta show up they gotta actually want to not be wards of the state.

    This is like the red house in Portland. Just ask for subsidy on gender studies and how it affects homeless folks. Congress will give tons of $.

    Did this group pay the bill at the motel or just expect the motel to foot the bill for housing for them?

    That’s a nice scam you got there, Hobos. Would be a shame if somebody burnt down your occupied hotel, now wouldn’t it? Not saying it should be done while people are inside, but.... if that innkeeper got fat insurance check AND served these criminal occupiers their just medicine, I think it would restore some balance to this crazy world.
