I've seen plenty of drunk adults that live inside, puking, and peeing in the streets. I have witnessed grown adults getting drunk in front of their children. There are adults that live inside who have drug addictions too.
Are you all that blinded by designed stereotypes over hateful emotions you have against someone who lives a lifestyle different from yours, and ignores what the real facts and real issues of houselessness?
Most cities now have laws created by people who are afraid, constantly worried that they will end up with nothing. These people construct local rules that force those they fear into public sight. Laws that say that you cant sell anything you make without a permit or sleep outside at night, so now the only houseless people that are seen, are the ones that cannot help themselves because of a physical and/or mental issue(s)... You ran everyone that was good, clean, artistry, and decent traveling individuals away. Doing this to others, holding your fears against us is not OK. There are so many good people like me who are outside by choice, love it, we work for ourselves mostly, but some of us work a job or profession. I have lived outside for 27 years now, and you wont see me, because i am too busy going to school, a part-time job, and run my own business. How do you think the homebums get their drugs, not weed, hard drugs? That is a simple truth you may not want to face... The people with money come to the homeless for their drugs. The homebum then gets a finders fee. Please people, wake up and face reality.. Are you really that afraid to do things on your own without the reliance on other people and businesses.? Are you so in fear that you are willing to divide yourself with hate with fake and emotional related self-doubt, and influence others around to do the same?
You really want to help... This is also a simple task, stop supporting the laws that force us into the public eye... Get our institutions back that hate politics got rid of. How hard is it to comply with our constitution?
