> Newsom told the San Francisco Chronicle that there was no more time to debate people’s civil rights when communities were faced with “people with their clothes off defecating and urinating in the middle of the streets, screaming and talking to themselves”.
That's pretty much what I saw when I lived in, and traveled to CA.
IMO: A major contributor to homelessness in CA is the absurd cost of living.
- powerslacker 5y agoI'm with Newsom on this one. There's nothing compassionate about leaving the mentally ill in a pile of their own feces. If someone is competent enough to argue their rights to a court then that's one thing but the vast majority of homeless people in California are in desperate need of rehabilitation or care.
