    You don't need to re-invent the wheel here. Put crazy people into mental institutions and for the rest of them start enforcing the law. No public camping, public urination and defecation. Public drug use and drunkennes. Every homeless camp I see is strewn with litter and stolen bike and other materials. Start enforcing all of those laws. If I as a business or home owner decided I no longer wanted to pay to have my garbage hauled away and just started throwing it into the street I'd have the authorities on my door step in short order. But if your homeless you can toss your shit and garbage anywhere you feel like and nothing happens.

    All good except when the legislature endorses drug use and bans policing.

    See you at Cabellas. Hold the line at the Spokane River.

    You forgot to address the bigger problem.

    the people (Karen) and their guilt. Without that homeless guilt they would have to address things that function just fine.
