Homelessness in the Bay Area has become such a problem people are being urged to give their spare rooms over to the homeless.
Some charities have urged local families—who are sick of seeing the homeless crisis on their doorsteps—to do something about it personally by taking unhoused people into their own homes and spare rooms—and some schemes have little to no compensation.(Snip)'This is something that someone can do when they just feel that despair of 'oh my gosh, I just can't stand seeing these poor people on the streets near my home.' Since 2017, the group has made more than 60 placements.

Kamala’s all about “root causes”, right? Well the root causes of most homelessness are mental illness and drug addiction. The leftists keep telling us it’s a housing shortage and throwing money at various housing “solutions”. Not surprisingly, the money doesn’t fix the problem. The question is, do these leftists really believe their own narrative, or are they just cruelly using the homeless to leverage their agenda to destroy western civilization?

House them in those FEMA camps that have been sitting around for years and then put them to work fixing the roadsand picking up all of the junk they've scattered all over the streets....let 'em sweat the drugs out of their systems....or else.

Where's Sheriff Joe of tent prison fame? Tent cities / prisons for all these vagrants (anyone heard of vagrancy laws?) and an apple, bologna sandwich and bottle of water for 3 meals a day sounds pretty good for cleaning things up.

Sadly, given how many braindead lie-berals live in San Fornication, I wouldn't be shocked to find out that a lot of them actually do take in a homeless person.
Of course, I won't be surprised either when these braindead lie-berals discover that these homeless people steal from them, sexually assault them and their children, have terrible sanitary standards, abuse drugs, and just do what nasty homeless people in lie-beral mecca's always do. And they will be shocked (shocked I tell you) to find their kids playing with AIDS-infected syringes that their homeless "guest" left lying around. And I'm guessing they will eventually stop feeling guilty for getting upset as they have to clean up all the vomit and blood that their homeless "guest" threw up when he overdosed on crack -- again!!!
Who knows, that may be what it takes to turn a few of them into conservatives!!!

When you embrace vagrancy and drug abuse, this is where you find yourself. Until these sanctimonious fools understand that the mentally ill and drug abusers do not need to be coddled, this kind of madness will continue. These fools do not understand that drugs are mind altering substances. The people who are addicted are incapable of having what we would consider to be a normal life. Drugs will always define and motivate their every move. They will do what they have to do to procure whatever drug they want. To bring these vagrants into your home with the hope that your kindness can rehabilitate them is, naive and dangerous. Unfortunately, these leftists are crazy as loons to believe that more of the same is going to work. Enabling a drug addict never works. What they have done to the streets, they will do to your homes. It is their nature. This virtue signaling nonsense will get people killed.

Are they crazy in San Fran? 99.99% of the homeless have serious mental issues or are drug addicts. This will not end well.

I seem to recall something similar (Houston?) after Katrina. It did not end well for the idjits who took them in.

Once they move in you will never be able to remove them. After they have trashed your home you have nothing and they will still be there. Government will not allow you to toss them out.

FTA:Zach Stein and his wife housed a young woman for three months in 2020 through Safe Time, putting her up in their Bay Area home in the city of Albany. 'In some ways, it was really weird,' he said. But they intend to do it again, once their newborn is older
No explanation about why their experience was ''really weird''. But now with a baby, they have a good excuse not to do it again anytime soon.

I always wants a pigeon,….not. So tired of the apology tour. Put all the homeless on trains and ship them to Martha’s Vineyard et al. Might change the discussion.

This homeless problem, at least the part related to mental illness, can be directly tied to the laps of the ACLU and Jimmy Carter. The ACLU, feeling it is more dignified for the mentally ill to be living on the streets instead of housed in a facility where they are actually helped, got the whole system taken apart and pretty much destroyed. Now they blame parents for their adult children who have mental problems and wind up committing crimes.
Well guess what? Those parents and the cops are pretty much prevented from doing anything useful, all thanks to the efforts of the ACLU back in the late 60's right up through Carter's administration. Most parents aren't ignoring the problems the mentally ill cause, they are prevented by laws from actually doing so. Because the cops cannot do anything unless the person hurts somebody.

There are a lot of big, big homes out Kalifornia way. I would think all the big hearted hollyweird types would be chomping at the bit to get their very own homeless statements, so they will have something to brag about when they have one of their look at me awards shows. All of our betters should just throw open the gates and tear down those walls they all hate, and let the people in. It's virtue signaling at its finest!

there's a reason the 3rd Amendment is in the Bill of Rights. San Francisco is on shaky grounds - pun intended.

Feudalism is the answer. Find a rich person and become that person's minion - swear your life, loyalty and obedience to that person in return for a place to live.
Rich person gets a serf and you get to live for free in San Francisco. Such a deal!

I can't wait till they have a television series on this. We'll call it, "We welcomed a criminal who raped our children, killed our pets, stole our property, and then moved out to do it again."
