    In Star Trek, there were Sanctuary Districts to herd all the undesirables to in the 2020s.

    In reality, we can’t even be bothered to do that.

        Here in LA, jerks are constantly suggesting “let’s build a huge structure in the desert and move 'em there”. They usually don’t know what Manzanar was.

        And our answer is always no. The homeless are going to stay right here in everybody’s faces until we actually solve the problem. We aren’t willing to compromise on pushing them somewhere else.

        There is no LA homelessness problem. There is a national homelessness problem and we’re dealing with it here because our Christian country won’t.
