"The Conversation" about "homelessness" as a "mental illness"
Even people who own homes and cars are demanding access to the street drugs and sex available at homeless camps.
Stephen Przybylinski
There are homeless camps or encampments in cities all over the place.
I have to assume that those people are camping out with their friends, and that they are warm and dry have access to food, toiletries, clothing, showers, laundry, sex, drugs, alcohol, shelter from the rain, and social services.
Some people just camp out and make themselves comfortable wherever they want to. Other people are going have an uncomfortable "conversation" or change the topic, but the reality is that heavily drug-addicted alcoholic labor-unionized gang-rapist working cops on the beat are arresting housed and competent people by the score because they sort of look like they might possibly be associated with the sort of people who might possibly be doing weed or having sex or something or something like that, and the civil commitment is an abuse of process that has suddenly been made available to dirty cops who don't have a snowball's chance in hell of proving anything in particular beyond a reasonable doubt in court.
People who are actually housed (in a free country) obviously should not be forced to serve out an indefinite house arrest under variously interpreted and oddly enforced VIP-directed gun-grabbing policies, passport denials and domestic travel restrictions.
Hotel rooms? $200 or $300 or even more per night? Or "rent" an apartment longer term from the same landlords? Survive the nit-picking on background checks, don't expect anything special and bring all the toiletries and sundries you might need with you, because nothing is available in the lobby, if the sheets are even changed in your room when you check in. About time to duck around the corner, sleep in a back alley, show up for court and have some of the pimps and proprietors of these places served. Unless you have an RV or motor vehicle you are willing to risk having towed or impounded or cited for parking in the back woods or any of these inner-city red-light districts.
And far too many corrupt police chiefs and commissioners, mayors and governors throughout this sordid country obstinately insist on hiring the white-collar criminals, jackass gangsters, drug addicts, alcoholics and predatory sex offenders of the worst sort to work as beat cops in all jurisdictions, military as well as civilian, federal as well as state and local. Worse criminals than any of the people they pick up on a day-to-day basis by far.
