I have been seeing a few things lately that has really got me thinking.
Here in lovely St. Petersburg Florida there is a homeless problem, I guess they call it a problem because no one has come up with an answer, otherwise it would be the homeless solution.
Recently, a local mission allowed the homeless to put up tents on their property. The geography puts the poorest part of St. Pete near downtown, so humans complained. The city responded with an ulitimatum for them to not be homeless in 3 days. On the third day they were ordered (just doing their jobs) to destroy, dismantle and confiscate the tents. The solution they presented was sleep in doorways and such. There is plenty of video out there showing it.
So today I hear in FL again there is a church or chapel, anyway some flavor of religion, is allowing the homeless to sleep on their property and the city is giving them an ultimatum of a $2,000 a day fine.
