Just like a hundred rapes a day are committed by non-homeless people. Murders, assaults, rapes! By non-homeless! How many times do we need to read the criminology stats that show 75% of violent crimes are committed by someone the victim knows? Watch out for your brother-in-law! Don’t take your eyes off your neighbor!

And not a minute’s effort to ever do a thing to ameliorate the disaster. Just fearmonger for fun on the internet fora ... Sick and juvenile.

No, they've been ignored. Even when presented with factual data, you continue to defend the homeless who incessantly terrorize our neighborhoods.

"Factual data"? A Google image that has no source? It might be better for you to stick with your Dale Earnhardt threads.

“No source”? Certainly you’re not questioning the integrity of Malloy and Reed? Really? If there was ever an example of mature, deeply analytical, factually ironclad, sophisticated, soundly reasoned, highly sourced and linked posting on this forum, Exitus has pulled off the post of the year by bringing to bear the integrity of Reed and Malloy in this one. Kudos kudos kudos.

Now back to Dale Earnhardt and Hot Wheels!

“No matter how down or how vulnerable or depressed you feel, meth has the tendency to just get rid of all that in a way that drinking or crack can’t do,” said Sean Romin, who’s been clean for 15 years and is the addiction specialist on the outreach team I tagged along with. “For eight, 10, 12 hours, you can feel like a normal human being. You can feel like there’s hope.”

But then it slips away."

Good news, our Mayor here in L.A is leading a coalition of mayors to end homelessness. This legislation is sponsored by Maxine Waters .What could go wrong?


"
LOS ANGELES (CNS) - L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti said today he plans to lead a coalition of mayors calling on Congress to pass the Ending Homelessness Act.
The legislation, sponsored by Representative Maxine Waters, would direct more than $13 billion to support the work of cities on the front lines of this crisis, deliver vital services to homeless residents, and bring the unsheltered indoors, according to a statement from Garcetti's Office."

Bring them indoors? I thought that's why we jacked up taxes with H and HH. Perhaps we'll call this latest initiative HHH so we'll have a perfect trifecta of ways in which contractors and other racketeers can take money out of our wallets while only putting a dent in the problem.

All the leftest politicians have bought it lock stock and barrel that the homeless are families down on their luck instead of what they are feral drug addicts, alcoholics, and to lazy to do anything. They don't want any responsibility at all.
So there going to give them a free new nice house in a area where 500,000 is a cheap house.

But there is no evidence that homeless people commit 12.6% of assaults in LA, you are reading something into the data that just isn't there:

Quote:
People described as homeless were listed as suspects in 4.3 percent of all crime reported in Los Angeles during the same period in 2018, they were listed as suspects in 12.6 percent of aggravated assaults, the crime records showed. The descriptions of perpetrators in the reports as homeless are not conclusive, as they depend on the perception of the person reporting the crime, according to city and other officials. https://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/l...502407861.html
So in other words:
  • Homeless people were listed as suspects in 12.6% of assaults, but there is no data to show how many of those crimes resulted in an arrest/conviction, or how many were classified as being 'unfounded'.
  • The determination of whether or not the suspect was homeless was derived by the victim's description. We have no idea how the victim came to that conclusion, or how often they were correct
  • There is no data regarding how many of the victims of assaults were also homeless.
