Jesus, read any of the links I’ve already put in this thread. There are streets in Portland that are un-navigable thanks to the homeless camps and they are magnets for drugs, arson, and other crimes impacting the city at large.
Again, not the point. The argument is whether or not criminalizing homelessness is a solution
It is not and the only reason you seem to push for it is that you just don’t care about the homeless, you just want to see the problem go away however possible

I did. They are all whining about how non homeless people suffer the smell. Nothing about the causes of homelessness or any solution
Again “why did the wife make the husband beat her?” Poor him
The smell, and the drugs, and the thefts, and arson…
Oh poor you, that’s not excuse to end the homeless party though, they seem to be having so much fun, right?
Yeah… fun…

“There were 1,959 of what the fire bureau calls “homeless-related fires” last year, 41% of all fires in the city.”

Criminalizing homelessness would free up fire response from having to respond to 2,000 fires caused by the homeless, so, yeah.
Yeah but now jails are even more crowded… Better just shoot them all, no?
It’s not a homeless to jail pipeline in Portland. Only if they repeatedly refuse assistance.
