Nearly half of the U.S.’s homeless people live in one state: California, and they are more violent

Of course California has the most homeless. Go sit outside in Wyoming in February, you wont be homeless for long cause you'll be dead. Same thing for Texas in July. Homeless are gonna gravitate toward somewhere they can live.

So.. the homeless are traveling to California from all over the country..?

Heroine was always a cruel bitch but in 90s early 2000s theywere prescribing oxy Loli pops and codeine syrup for stubbed toes and everything. Peeps I knew were dropping like flies. Sad times..still dealing with aftermath of the legal drug trade. Pharmaceutical gangsters..eventually the users go for the cheaper shit and end up down there on death row..living zombies

I don't think Fentanyl, or any opioids for that matter, makes people violent - it's usually the opposite.

Maybe you were referring to what they will do to acquire a fix (ie., when they are withdrawing). The only reason I bring it up is that I believe this is a good argument for decriminalization. The violence associated with drugs typically stems not from the effects of the actual drugs (meth psychosis and a few others being the exception), but due to the fact that they are illegal.

Isn't leagizied opoids what have caused this opoid epidemic?

holy fuck, what kind of a scumbag piece of shit do you have to be to sit there and say shit like the homeless just have it so good with all these protections.

these are literally the weakest members of society. the judgment isn't on them, it's fucking on us and how we deal and treat it. and so far, we act like good luck get fucked is the appropriate response.

fucking conservatives, what fucking scumbags. not you who I quoted of course, b/c that'd be flaming and I got banned for being mean before since people go crying to mods when I use bad words. but in general, yea, fuckin scumbags. holy fuck.

I hooe it is you or your family that has to get their shit stolen or wrecked by the drug zombies.

They have made the local park unusable. They rape and Rob and murder.

It certainly has played a part - I don't know how much of an "epidemic" it is though.

I really believe that drug addicts need to be treated as having a health issue, rather than a criminal one, hence decriminalizing personal usage.

California, ......loves the homeless........

Sure, if they are committing crimes lock em up.

Loitering is a bullshit charge though. I don't like the idea that the state has made it an offense for an individual to be in a public place for no apparent reason - especially when it's so selectively enforced.

I live in the poorest Incorporated City (by Per Capita GDP that is) in the largest county in the US, San Bernardino, in SoCal.

It is staggering the numbers of homeless we have, considering a) the weather, I live in the Mojave Desert, and B) the per capita income is so low, there's only retirees and people like me to mooch off.

I get like LA and San Diego, but when like Hemet and 29 Palms and Barstow have homeless out the ass, we have some problems that need addressing.

After they cleared out the river bed near Angel Stadium our homeless pop skyrocketed and became way more fucking violent.

San Bern is a desolate area, I hated shipping there its filled with tons of homeless, crackheads, meth addicts, desert people, gang bangers, neo nazi, etc.

Look at this from my old Oakland and Alameda County area homelessness is on a rise in Cali
