security is paramount to getting people off the street. security is the small things too, like policing areas where the homeless congregate, not letting a single gum wrapper reach the ground before a cop tells the dropper to pick it up and dont drop another. rules, we have them and most of us live by them every day, yet we let the homeless live by different rules. a neat tent with all your belongings inside, with free storage is you have too much. a secure place to live, even in a tent city, if they know their stuff will still be there when they get back, and a majority of the homeless will be able to get their life back together.
