In a good area with no homeless scumbags.

I didn't say that.

I asked that.

No, we have quite a few Afghan vets in this city with PTSD.

I wonder how the homeless shelters manage all those murderous fuckers

I meet lots of homeless people each Christmas working the kettles..



Some are very aggressive, some are not..



Some have very interesting stories to tell.

Somehow I'm not surprised you would be a volunteer. You seem like the type. So sweet. =)

I grew up in an affluent area just north of San Francisco. Marin county. Sausalito, Tiburon, Belvedere, Mill Valley. The county seat is San Rafael. Don't live there any more. Last 2 times I was back, I could not believe the amount of homeless who have taken over San Rafael. They hang in the streets most of the day. Eat at the St. Vincent de Paul homeless kitchen. 3 Xs a day. Then migrate to the parks and other hideouts for the night. In a city of about 100,000, 20,000 are homeless living in the streets. San Rafael is a sanctuary city, which meant illegals would not be harassed. San Rafael has evolved into a homeless haven. I am told that a homeless person can board a public bus and be dropped of in San Rafael for free. Pan handlers can make up to $300. per day. I like to think of myself as a understanding, thoughtful liberal. What I see when I go back makes me ill. At the same time a 1200 sq. foot tract home is going for 1.4 million. How does this scenario equate?

My gosh Twenty Dollars, that is amazing..



I don't know what to say..



How did an affluent community turn into a magnet for homeless people?



And what is the connection with illegals? Are they homeless too?

I believe it was the Catholic Parish that helped to set this sanctuary city concept up. Lots of Latinos came north to work in the 90s. They were not ever arrested, unless a crime was committed. Related to the Homeless, I really do t know. It just kind of carried over. Clearly the Bay Area is a liberal place. Marin is a liberal place enhabited by folks with means. I think many are in denial about it, and maybe used to it. When I go back, I sometimes stay with my ex wife. She is aware of it, but doesn't seem to bother her. She lives in a nice neighborhood. I remember the last time I was back getting some money at an ATM machine down town. 3 homeless creeps looking over my shoulder. Weird huh?

It's a city of Haves and Have-Nots
