    No, quite the opposite. Your choice of words…

    that do nothing but attract homeless camps

    …comes across as disgusted, as if we can’t have the homeless out here visible. I’m all for helping them and have volunteered and donated accordingly, though I could do more.

    A green, shaded spot to camp is a lot better than many homeless have it I’m afraid. Better than a freeway underpass if I had to choose personally.

      Of course I don’t want to see homeless people there, because I don’t want there to be homeless people there. And you shouldn’t either! WTF is wrong with you, that you want people to be homeless?!

          You’re the one advocating for them to be relegated to fucking freeway medians, not me!

          I wanted the city to not close the Peachtree & Pine homeless shelter so that we wouldn’t have this problem in the first place!

          You should be fucking ashamed of yourself for dishonestly trying to shoot the messenger for the grievous sin of merely pointing out the goddamn problem!

            Nothing I said suggests they should be relegated there. I do not believe they should be driven out when they have no place else to go. Too many places want to break up their camps without giving them any alternatives… making them miserable so they’ll go elsewhere. I’m all for providing shelters and raising taxes to do it. As I said, I’ve volunteered working with the homeless many times when I used to work in and live near a downtown area. I hope to do more in the future though at the moment live a long ways away from an urban area to do so.

              Bullshit. When I implied that it was bad for them to be there (an idea that’s nothing more than common fucking sense), you attacked me for it. You have been uncivil and accusatory to me from the very beginning. Again, WTF is your problem?
