THAT.<br /><br />The gravy train is going to end. <br />Far better that it do so on my terms than what's coming.<br /><br />But if you wish to adopt some number of homeless personally, rather than coming here merely to virtue signal your imaginary moral superiority without any skin in the game, go ahead on, and post photographic evidence. Until then, like the mounds of human waste and used drug needles left by the homeless hereabouts within a short walk, your opinions are simply another unwanted pile of fecal detritus.<br /><br />You should wipe yourself, and button your trousers.Aesophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07834464741531503378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-56456285459428960712019-10-26T08:22:13.689-07:002019-10-26T08:22:13.689-07:00What do you all put in the Kalifuqistan water that...What do you all put in the Kalifuqistan water that makes you all so bat guano crazy.

I have a ...A little something I wrote a while ago.<br /><br />I have a solution:<br />Long but worth it.<br />It is called bumtown , <br />( 1) there are barely inhabited islands off the coast of Seattle,and Los angles , buy out the current owners and upgrade the ferries.<br />(2)build infrastructure * detailed below.<br />(3)tell all the bums that the ONLY place their welfare cards will work is now on bumtown island.<br />No purchase of any kind will work anywhere but bum town<br />There are NO services except on Bumtown island.<br />It will now be a crime to provide any assistance to the “homeless”<br />If you really insist on helping them you may donate to “bumtown” or even volunteer on the island.<br /><br />Want money?want food 3 times a day? Want a place to sleep? Want to be educated? Need medicine or healthcare?<br /> Go to Bumtown Island.<br />(4) setup food , clothing and tent stores,hospital and 12 step programs.all in the windows of the wall.<br />( 5)set up training courses and a dangerous persons section of the island (walled off from the others but still open)<br />* remember, it is free to enter or leave at any time BUT , NO government support will be given ANYWHERE but the island.<br />This will accomplish a number of things..<br />One, the lazy and stupid will take advantage of the training courses to get off the island and make a living.<br />Two the junkies could get clean , the card are ONLY usable on the island and cannot be converted to cash, making it hard for pushers to get paid. (Unless the gov is corrupt)all the usual supports will be provided.<br />Three, it cleans up the streets,and protects your tax paying livestock.<br />Four it concentrates the resources into a manageable area. Concentrated resources are far cheaper.<br />Five it will move the insane to a place where help is actually available.<br />Six, those who do not want to take advantage of this service are free to move along or die or go to prison.<br /><br />*the entire plan is completly voluntary *<br /><br />*The design of the island would be like Kong island. The ferry arrives at side “a”, the customers are off loaded and given provisions if the so desire and are lead to an airlock style door.<br />A huge wall runs across one end of the island, in it are windows where the residents can be fed, clothing will be handed out, medicine dispensed.<br /> All in complete safety for the staff.<br />On the “b” side there will be thousands of small square concrete houses each has a window(unbreakable) and a door , . You are completly free to use one or not. The electric heater is built into the concrete and cannot be accessed by the customers.<br />Communal showers and toilet facilities will be provided with automatic high pressure cleaning processes high up in the ceilings .<br />Concrete tables with benches will be provided outside the food windows. A huge staff on the inside of the wall will provide food through out the day and night.<br />Entertainment/ education will be built into the wall.<br />The door to enter and exit is NEVER locked, but they can only interact with the staff through the windows. (Safety first)<br />The ferry ride is free.<br />NOTE: anyone is free to leave at any time but no government assistance will be given anywhere but the Island.<br />All payments to your card, all moneys accrued are convertible to actuall cash IF you leave the Island BUT you may not return for one (1) calendar year. That way you may save for a down payment on housing for when you leave. But you can’t just leave to buy drugs and come back .<br />Meanwhile, a larger island called “welfare island” should be set up with schools and daycare and training courses for any job you want offered.<br />Same plan.<br />Your pal<br />Scott.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-81505590273713823562019-10-12T01:15:00.927-07:002019-10-12T01:15:00.927-07:00Read Ned2's comment a different way; 'No a...Read Ned2's comment a different way; 'No amount of money will fix this vagrancy problem." He's exactly correct but not as he thinks; no money will fix the problem. Take the money out of the equation and the 'homeless' will square themselves tout de suite.<br /><br />When the city of San Luis Obispo proposed building a homeless shelter, the hue and cry that such facility will attract persons of questionable repute as moths to a flame. The shelter was built and sure enough, the drug-addled and bat crazy came out of the woodwork in droves. Of course the city council, as magnanimous and steller as they are, decided to expand the shelter as they said they had no idea the severity of the problem. <br /><br />Likewise, the city of Ukiah went the same route. Gee, where ever did they all come from? Instead of considering that the cities had created the problem, they decided that they hadn't realized the depth of the problem.<br /><br />The actual problem is the tolerance of and catering to, even creating a special class of people, the lazy ne'er-do-wells. They neither want or search for professional help when needed. Their only desire is the next high and where they can fulfill their needs and wants for the least expenditure of energy.<br /><br />I have worked directly with the homeless for nigh on a decade. I do not anymore for, to a person, none expressed a desire for longterm stability. They sneered at honest work (in the case of shelters which have RULES such as rotating duties light duty to maintain the facility, they work only to the minimum required). They refused to participate - or, again when required, only begrudgingly - in bettering themselves and others. Then there was the bad attitudes by which they act very rudely or threaten violence, usually retaliation for some perceived wrong. When those who are the object of your every effort to give aid see you as the problem, it is time to stop and remove yourself from their sphere.<br /><br />The trouble is when, because they are seemingly members of a protected class, their sphere of influence continues to expand, even encouraged by the professional do gooders, you decide to stand your ground and take back the territory. Nowadays if I should converse with any 'homeless' person, it is succinct; 'you should be ashamed, you have lowered yourself to an animal to beg. Get off your ass and make something of yourself'.<br /><br />Sometimes I'll listen to their story of woe (they always have a story, often quite complex). One guy, maybe in his mid-30s said he was a 'Nam vet with PTSD. Another said his car 'blew up'. Yes, actually blew up, shrapnel everywhere as he, his wife, and four children where traveling to grandma's for Christmas. They're always good for a laugh.<br /><br />RickAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14495862358340777039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-7948944244344147892019-10-11T20:16:34.016-07:002019-10-11T20:16:34.016-07:00I forsee a mid-range eventuality before the grapes...I forsee a mid-range eventuality before the grapes are harvested and are stomped into a bloody vintage. If/when the dems win/cheat their way back into the White House there will be a lot of flashy "take your guns and tax your religion" bills to keep judges busy and Congress "outraged" and hitting us up for donations. But, ever so quietly, our "smarter than you rubes" masters will arrange a federal bailout for the big cities in general and all of CA in particular. Those reliable donkey voters must be rewarded no? When word gets out we will be calmly assured by "conservatives" that this is the right, Christian thing to do and to oppose it would be (gasp) racist. Besides, the argument will go, they'll get it right this time, they've learned from their mistakes and no one could possibly screw up with this much money. And so the can will get kicked down the road and the inevitable crash will be exponentially worse...just delayed a little longer and subsidized by you and me, happily underwritten by our overseas long-term enemies.Hornswogglerhttp://hidingamongthepinkos.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-51192750080522351512019-10-11T19:36:16.073-07:002019-10-11T19:36:16.073-07:00@John Wilder: Seems to be a deserving person.

Here's what we're dealing with in my little corner of So Cal.:<br /><br />We discovered a new encampment behind Goodwill and Harbor Freight on Whittier Boulevard. The drug-addicted vagrant there is deranged and dangerous. He has been feeding off the carcasses of dead possums, littering the area with human waste and syringes. He’d also set up a portable, medical-type, commode, defecating in the alleyway. When approached, he became aggressive, threating me with a crowbar – But I kept my distance and called WPD. Upon hearing the call, he quickly fled the area, leaving behind over a dozen syringes and several, half-eaten marsupials, piled together by his blanket. Everything but the “toilet” was collected and properly disposed of. Animal control was called to remove the rotting carcasses. His camp also included a pair of Head skis. Strange find but quite possibly stolen from a garage. I want to thank one of our neighbors who reported this to me -- Happy to get this cleared out.<br /><br />The locals here are fed up. The cops have their hands tied because of the Boise ruling. Two SJW's on the city council are doing their level best to thwart any clean-up effort. The anger is growing like a tumbleweed.<br /><br />JWMJWMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05564732483476859555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-714028479313834812.post-25613674285835396782019-10-11T07:18:02.907-07:002019-10-11T07:18:02.907-07:00The longer a situation remains untenable, the more...The longer a situation remains untenable, the more violent the correction.

They know the problems, the politicians are accessible, and the citizens generally despise individuals that abuse drugs, adopt the life of a vagrant, and ignore decent behavior. <br /><br />The solution is for those with the largest tax burden to refuse to pay their taxes, until the problem is solved. It works every time, and there isn't a city in the country that can afford to pay the legal fees in the attempt to force their taxpayers.

There are people and organizations falling over each other willing to help you. Laying around all day with no responsibilities, getting high, having sex and having people feed and support your lifestyle has undeniable and understandable appeal to many. If you want the behavior to stop you have to discontinue the incentives.<br /><br />I've been "homeless" through my own poor decision making and unforeseen circumstances aka a really shitty run of luck. Lived out of my vehicle and a tent for a period of time. No one would've known. I was clean, sober, worked multiple jobs, used proper sanitation and looked and acted like a normal functioning member of society. Just lacked adequate cash flow and didn't have a physical address for a time. There's always a place to use the toilet. There is always a way to keep clean and take care of your personal hygiene. It isn't hard to do. <br /><br />If you don't want to unfuck your life on your own, as I said before, there are a horde of people eager help you be un-homeless in very short order. If you just want to live the lifestyle it's off to the poor farm with you.
