QuoteOn the flip side, government needs to remove the homeless from areas of aesthetic, cultural and economic importance for the enjoyment of residents and visitors.

His solution?  Medieval style ghettos.

QuoteThe best place to start is often the simplest. I propose safe zones as a short-term, reasonable and do-able solution until things change and the number of homeless decrease. While not a new idea, I explored the feasibility of this solution this past legislative session, after speaking with advocates and service providers to address residents' complaints about homelessness.

With the adoption of H.R. No. 62 (2010) by the House of Representatives— and continued community-sponsored discussions— homeless safe zones are being recognized as a cost-effective, compassionate alternative to homelessness.

I cannot force the State or City Administrations to follow my plan; I can only hope they see its value.

We know where we don't want the homeless to be because they are already "camping" there, illegally. We can either designate areas where the homeless can be— or do nothing and let them continue to be everywhere.

If enough safe zones are created, the homeless cannot say they have "no place to go" and continue monopolizing our parks and sidewalks. They will now have a place to go. Should they choose not to go there, the homeless must understand, from this point forward, they will not have unlimited access for "camping" at popular spots. Being homeless should mean fewer options on where you can stay, not more.

No shit.

I have an idea for a name for this place.

Auschwitz 2 Zygon Boogaloo?

That's snappy, but I was just thinking Hobo Town.

Or Hooverville. DOUR has the best one, though.

I'd say something about putting a sign on the gate to this ghetto saying "Work shall set you Free" But i think the reference and sarcasm will go over his head.
