    95% agree, the only sticking point is what we each might consider “unconditional”. You wreck the home I gave you and I’ll maybe give you one more and then too bad. Violence or sexual assault and we can give you a different home with bars.

      Yeah this is the main problem. Might just mean the homes need to be more barebones and strongly constructed(soviet blocks?) so that if they start filling it with furniture its their furniture and they might be less likely to break it.

        The ones that fuck up any place you put them in will fuck up every place they’re allowed to. Some people are just too mentally ill and should be institutionalized for the betterment of everyone.

        I get the feeling most people in this thread don’t care about that though. They just don’t want people on the street where they have to see them. There’s a lot of out of sight, out of mind thinking going on here.

        Gee, don’t those sound like conditions to avoid being homeless?

        For the record I don’t inherently have issues with having conditions for people to be allowed to exist in our society I’m just saying that these 2 comments are exactly what the post is talking about

          To be clear, im not suggesting unhousing them because they wreak the place. What i am suggesting is giving them a roof to sleep under and some basic facilities. All of which are designed to be prettymuch bulletproof to abuse, so we dont just spend money giving homeless people inhospitible conditions to live in.

          One of the sibling comments talked about giving them mental health help as well which i think is a great idea.
