    It must be very frustrating for a business owner.

      Street encampments are nothing else but open are fentanyl markets brewing all sorts of crime, filth, theft, and prostitution. Fentanyl and Tranq destroy humans mentally and physically beyond the point of repair very quickly.

    This is wild, I actually took a homeless guy to this restaurant to feed him while I interviewed him back in July 2023. He told me he preferred to be homeless and high. He didn’t want obligation or structure. He didn’t care much about food that day either, he was already high.

    “Money for wars but can’t feed the poor”. Many layers to the homeless problem in America and I won’t try to flesh them out here, however, it’s untenable to say America policy leaders are the least bit concerned! B1

    The greater disparity in wealth currently in our nation is the cause of homelessness, as well as areas of gentrification. Also the lack of dual diagnosis treatment programs.. we have lots of mentally ill and drug addicted floating around without a comprehensive treatment system.

      Yep, everyone wants to be in the top 1%, it seems, and probably Something contributing to the mental health issues that people are having. How far can we get in a society where people are constantly tearing each other down and avoiding accountability by any means necessary. I'm one of those people who shouldn't even be breathing after the things I've been through so I have been hiding. My abusers just moved on and found another victim. And some of my abusers even suffer from mental health issues because they eventually started to feel the guilt and shame for the things they did and are now lying to themselves instead of holding themselves accountable. Abusers suffer and their victims suffer too.
      Proper diagnosis and treatment isn't going to help if abusers are able to roam the way they do. All that is doing diagnosing abusers and victims with the mental health issues they suffer from later on and helping them treat it the symptoms or cope with them.

    Don't blame mental health. When abusers are roaming rampated. Abuses eventually suffer from mental health issues and their victims obviously suffer from mental health issues. People enable abusive behaviour and then they complain about the consequences like people just like complaining🙄

    My heart cries for H-Town, so many factors mental health, addictions, satanic, education, poverty, rebellion,etc. I commend this business for showing compassion to the poor, lost souls and those who have been devastated financially and are now homeless. I wish the business a profitable year regardless.
