We need to get tough on homelessness. If they want help, there's more than enough programs out there in CA that will help them. The ones you see out there begging and living in tents... they don't want help!

Iโ€™ve been saying this for a while. How can you help someone that doesnโ€™t want to help themself?

Make there life as uncomfortable as possible instead of enabling them. Thats a start.

Redditors being based. Must be opposite day.

Can only pretend everything's fine and that these people are normal members of society for so long before you stop running out of excuses

I saw a homeless guy strung out with a new power tool in his hand (they retail for around $250). He was looking at it, looking at me, freaking out at crosswalk. Probably stole it out of someone's truck.

I just think of the sad desperation in front of all of us, everyday.

Our society could fix this - but it's corrupt.

This addict needs help getting a fix to avoid being dope sick.

Instead of offering him a way through a social service center, he's forced to commit a crime and hopefully he won't get a bad batch that will kill him.

We could solve this, but too much money being shelled out fight the problem, not fix the problem.

Something I love about redditors is they do the "somebody should DO something :marseypearlclutch:" schtick and then openly talk about how much they're not doing

"Nooo he actually has no agency in being a piece of shit. This is society fault."

This is the mindset of somebody who has never encountered poor people in their entire life.

Though there might be something to the implication that homeless people aren't sentient.

They should all be rounded up and dropped off in the middle of the Mojave desert.

For many of the people eligible for diversion, a quick release โ€” even if it leaves criminal charges hanging over their heads โ€” is more attractive than entering into a months-long treatment program, Pitcher said.

โ€œThe individuals who are brought in believe they will be released very quickly, which they are,โ€ Pitcher said. โ€œThe courtโ€™s zero-bail practice is wreaking havoc on this program.โ€

When did people lose their ability to understand causality? That Action A will cause Result B?

If you watch some of that โ€œsoft white underbellyโ€ you see the guy keep trying to help the people he encounters. He even knows why itโ€™s probably not gonna work, and why.
