I saw the video about Seattle dying and I love what Rhode Island is doing. As I said in the other thread about the homeless here, the Ocala Forest should be considered an option for a homeless community. But perhaps the state could incorporate the idea of a homeless community, with the system similar to what they did in Rhode Island. Build a prison where these folks can be put, which will also get them off the drugs and perhaps save their lives, and allow them to become contributing members of society again.

Whining about the homeless folks on the internet does nothing about the problem. All it does is point out how much some people like to whine. And so the phrase goes right back over to you: put up or shut up.
"If you say that someone is whining, you mean that they are complaining in an annoying way about something unimportant." From: Just a moment...

I do not believe posters are whining about the presence of homeless people plaguing our community as their presence if tolerated eventually becomes a serious threat to the peaceful enjoyment of their property and their personal safety. Frankly, I regard that as important, not unimportant.

My solution is to not tolerate their presence here. Drive them off whenever they are encountered. Arrest them and lock them up for any crimes they commit.
