I agree these filthy camps need to be removed. We have to identify which of the homeless are mentally ill and get them off the streets, this will improve 90% of the homeless issues. I also stated that most mentally ill who do not get treatment are self medicating. This is drugs and alcohol, it is common and a known issue among mental health providers. The ones who are mentally ill are not capable of making CHOICES that are good for them. The smaller percentage of working poor who just cannot afford housing can then be focused upon.
