Not much to see here. Just more of the liberals/progressives getting what they vote for and ask for but then getting pissed off that it was built in THEIR neighborhood. Typical NIMBY bullshit.

From the post:

>The residents of a tiny home village in Portland, Oregon are being blamed for a drastic increase in crimes in the neighborhood.
People living in University Park, a North Portland neighborhood, said that ever since the Peninsula Crossing Safe Rest Village appeared, crime rates have skyrocketed. Portland police data supports this claim, according to KATU. Between July 2023, shortly after the housing site opened, and July 2024, there were 923 reported property crimes in the University Park area. But between July 2022 and July 2023, there were only 482 of the same reported crimes.

Very much true. The difference in your example is that when they eventually do something stupid and set the whole building on fire, more of them die since they are not in self-contained tiny-boxes separated by dirt/rock/concrete.

Go after the cause, not the symptom. Some of these people can re-join society and be fully functional or at least mostly functional. Many of them are either so damaged from addiction that they are no longer fit for society and and only exist in a controlled environment with treatment/care.

I’m from here, read my other comment.

Very few can rejoin society, they’re way too far gone and the police won’t even enter their encampments because they’re feral and police are pussies. These people are bums not homeless.

Resources every where only 20 have taken advantage of the rehab centers. It’s also a huge money laundering operation from the government, their family and friends.

The people who do go to the encampments have the liberal mindset of victim, oppressor and savior and they form symbiotic relationships to feel superior to others.

Also the non-profits can provide, tents, blankets, and som clothing. Anything else and their non-profit status gets revoked. There’s one that’s “for profit” but doesn’t make any money, takes donations but has to pay taxes and they actually help people who are struggling with being actually homeless or almost homeless.

They help get jobs, repair vehicles might help with expenses, take you in for a month or so, get you documentation etc. these are the true heroes. The volunteer their time, pay for stuff out of pocket and help keep people from living in their cars or the street.
