    Good God. I don't think I want to even know what naked homeless people look like. California has already turned into a sh!thole state before this.

    I lived in Corona, Ca for twenty one years and it wasn’t like this back in the 90s. Heck, it wasn’t like this when I left in 2012.

    I think we can all agree there is a mental health issue with many homeless people, mostly schizophrenia. But today, right now, the left sees schizophrenia as being normal.

    To be fair, I think you've inadvertently reflected the issue demonstrated in the article. We don't want there not to be homeless people, we just want not to be able to see them.

    The article even suggests that is the problem on multiple levels, with one part of the city that is cleared of homeless people (presumably the part where the rich and powerful people live or work) but the authorities specifically not doing anything about them in this one. This is almost certainly easier, cheaper and electorally more popular than actually trying to address the root problems.

    About 1/3 of our homeless are just going through tough times and with a little help, they can get right back on their feet. 1/3 are addicted to drugs/alcohol and are not likely to seek help. Shelters do not allow drugs/alcohol, so they prefer to live on the streets. The rest are not mentally fit to make it in society. The spend their day talking to themselves, yelling at people, and need more help than society is willing to give. Where I work, we have a homeless man that spits and throws bottles at people walking by.

    I do believe they should be removed from sight and far from the liquor store. Campsites with sanitation and security would be better for them.
