I get that some homeless people are probably not model citizens. Neither are a lot of people who have homes though. I guess the question comes down to why are they creating negative experiences for other humans? I'm sure there might be good reasons for laying down the law on a case by case basis. But simply rolling in with a dump truck and police escorts and robbing an entire community of their belongings is cruel and evil. I imagine the number of homeless people who deserve that treatment is pretty low. Anyway, I vote for revolution. The ruling class is to blame for our plight. I will just be over here drinking my coffee and constructing a guillotine.

Interesting. That is not something that seems to be happening around here. There is a camp in the woods a mile or so from my house that has been there undisturbed for years. Mostly what folks here complain about in regard to that camp is that it seems half the time the sheriff posts those "sex offender in our county" notices, the address is "that woods next to all those neighborhoods and that popular park where kids like to play." Fortunately we are tucked back away from a lot of that mess. I have a friend who lives close by it and saw a man from the camp snatch her little dog out of her yard. Big Dog welcomes the challenge. He likes free meat ;)
I think the dump truck and police escort approach is reserved for larger cities like New York and LA but I might be mistaken. So you mean there's a place in the woods where I could come live undisturbed? Interesting. Of course I would provide balance to the good homeless / bad homeless equation by being incredibly good. I would just point out the bad ones for Big Dog to go kill. You have mountains in Florida right?
I think you'd love it. You will have fantastic tent neighbors. There have only been a few stabbings there that I've heard of. I'm estimating that higher than 90% of the residents are either mentally ill, drug addicted, or violent criminals, so it should not be that difficult to be a shining star. They just may vote you as Camp Mayor. Who knows.
And yes, we have mountains. They just look a little smaller than what you are used to.
