Oh snap, so how does destroying what security to scatter them like rats into the elements actually help them out? Take your time. I won't read it, since I'll have you on mute, but by all means rub your brain cells together to justify violence and exile 🥱
Here in LA ppl whose encampments are cleared are regularly offered shelter - belongings are required to be stored. Some ppl I know have been housed or sort of bullied into shelters. The problem is lack of beds / homes / psych care. Some mentally ill folks make *a lot* of pointless mess so…
Well it's good to know that "offering shelter" is only possible after seizing their possessions - papers, medications, ashes of loved ones, glasses, all these things and enacting police violence on them. Impossible to offer services without state violence, clearly I'm not smart enough for this 🙄
I called paramedics for two young ppl who had passed out in their vomit and crapped themselves this week. Contact with the state is sometimes necessary
That isn’t how it has to go! People’s shit can be stored or retained - and that is what is required here. Sometimes this doesn’t happen and that is fucked up. But some ppl also just create pointless crap and are making life harder for their neighbors on the street and off.
When you have to lie this badly, you're just flailing. Shelter offers come first - days beforehand. They're all given the chance to move on - days beforehand. Nothing is "seized" unless you're arrested for refusing to stop the illegal activity. I'm not sure why you keep promoting lawlessness?
Of course you won't read it. Because you're not interested in solutions. You just want to complain. It helps them (and the community) by not allowing them to live in dangerous, unsanitary conditions and create a public health and safety hazard.
