You use the "homeless" as if it's one identity. It's not. The mentally ill vet, the woman abandoned w/children--- these aren't the Park Block crowd. These are younger criminals that deal dope all day, hustle, commit crimes to get along. Have you ever spent any time around that area, close up? How about the crowd on street corners? Hardly the homeless stereotype you seem to mis-categorize. They are young, many are anarchists w/dogs. Do you really want petty criminals and anarchist youth continuing to dominate our civil community?
