[b]Groups propose homeless campsite[/b]
Plans also considered for ‘tiny house’ village
By Buffy Pollock
for the Mail Tribune
Two organizations are spearheading plans to establish a permanent camp site in Jackson County for the homeless.

***************************************************************************
Not to put too fine a point on it, but when homeless folks get permanent homes, are they still "homeless".
And, can we take seriously a story by Buffy? Come on Buffy, you are now a professional reporter so give up the name your daddy liked to call you. Yeah, I know....picky, picky, picky.
All things considered, I'm in favor of getting homeless folks off the streets. Just wondering: As we build these places will more and more folks "go homeless" in order to get homes. Life is a cabaret old chum, come hear the music play.

You won't ever get the homeless off the streets. They like the streets. They won't be allowed to drink or do drugs in a homeless campsite just like they aren't allowed to do the same at the mission or places like that.
Yeah I know not all homeless are as I described but enough are that we won't ever get them off the streets or out of our parks. Unless a hunting season opens for them.

I think you have hit the nail right on the head! I've read stories about homeless people in really cold climates who would stay on the streets rather than go to shelters because they didn't like the rules. No doubt some of these folks have serious mental problems and can't make good decisions. Another reason we need to go back to large institutions for many and stop this "half way house" nonsense.
But "hunting season" seems just a bit too drastic. A bit, mind you. Hey...how about rubber bullets? Paint balls? Maybe we could get the cities to sew a red flag on those who do suffer from serious mental problems so we don't shoot them. Or at least shoot them no more than once.

That went WAY too far over the line! I'm ashamed I played the "shooting folks" game, even in jest. Not funny. Ill still hold that a lot of NON-mentally ill people are on the streets simply because they are bums who are too lazy to work, but they don't need shooting. Anything short of that is fine with me.

I say we give the homeless hats.
Because as the old saying goes , my home is where my hat hangs. (something to that effect)
So as long has they have a hat to hang they could have a home.

Everyone needs a hat. In this routine by Bob Nelson, he briefly explains why...

Satire? And I joined in with it. Then, in response to BBQ I recanted and apologized for being insensitive and callous.
So, I thought you were "sticking to your guns" about this and were hard core about your hate for homeless people. We can only read what you write, TVg.

I was sticking to my guns that it was a JOKE. An insensitive and not politically correct joke but a joke nevertheless.
The fact that you actually thought I was in favor of shooting anyone makes me wonder and worry about you.

Okay. I missed the tone. Looking at it again, I realize I should have seen it as satire, but your tone about these things is not consistent.
Whatever...my bad.

I tell you what is not funny. The city of Seattle solution to their homeless problem. Seattle has had homeless camps on city property for years. Finally the city of Seattle listened to the citizens to clean up the homeless camps. What did Seattle do? Move the homeless camps to the suburbs of Seattle. Namely, Tukwilla.

Of course it's funny. Just not to you. That's your problem, not mine.
This isn't funny either It got almost four MILLION hits and the 100 million who saw it in the movie didn't think it was funny either.
