I love it that some of our politicians have the balls to do what needs to be done.

That's the only way to really get those bedbugs and lice

You KNOW the Austin politicians were screaming because Abbott actually DID what he said he'd do..... It's about time that someone took care of the taxpayers!

The lady interviewed in the article says they need safety, a safe place to stay, like a car, condo, studio, or motel. She's been living in a tent in a homeless camp and now safety is a concern?

I noticed last week that most of the growth planed next to the 610
Loop had been cut away hidding all the bridge troll encampments.

One interviewed homeless person said "We get free food, money - we don't have to pay for anything. We can party. It's great!"

Maybe Abbott can clean out Austin City Hall next?

Where in the Bill of Rights is the Right to Safety mentioned? LOL

That quote could have easily come from a member of Congress

Where do they go?
What's the solution?

What's the solution?

Mental evaluations
Sane ones sent to forced labor camps
Crazy ones go to institutions

 

[ZX9RCAM]

And we're still paying for it....

Mental health is another issue.
Druggies, eff ‘em.

Give folks who want it a hand-up, not a hand-out.

And if folks choose to be homeless, no handouts.

Choosing to live in Austin does not bode well on the psycho test, just sayn'.

I totally agree, but where do the homeless druggies go?
What is done with them?
