    Have you ever heard of Veterans Row? (I don’t support Russia)

    It’s across the street from the VA in Westwood. It’s also right next to a really dangerous intersection, and people will plow into their tents. There was supposed to be a campus there, so people lived their in protest/ to have access to the VA. I used to live in a cheap sublet around the corner from them during the pandemic. It was strange how bougie the area was in contrast. The “war on homelessness” turned into a war on the homeless.

      My mother operates a camp for homeless veterans, so I know how bad the US sucks at taking caring of its vets.

      Veterans row is back to being a sidewalk because the veterans were all moved inside the gate to tiny homes, and real housing is finally being built.

    That checks, real heros dont get their limbs blown off. Why would they be proud of someone who got wounded?!
