It shouldn't be a crime to be homeless

It shouldn't be a crime to be homeless

Least we can do is show up and speak out

edit: can I just tell y'all what obviously is not a solution and not have to repeatedly provide a blueprint for what is, JFC.

I'm going to just say it one more time. all the money we are spending on policing homeless people, arresting them, re-arresting them, jailing them could instead be used to house them. housing has been proven to be the solution it's not my fault I can't understand it for you.

There are plenty of empty buildings, not to mention all of the short-term rentals we have. If the city would actually spend some time addressing the housing crisis instead of these Band-Aid measures maybe we would actually get somewhere

Me playing the organ with my Great-Grandpa Dewey back in the late 80s. He composed the National Cherry Festival March that is still played at the parades to this day.

He was a music teacher for years as well.

I was driving along South Airport, saw the sky, and pulled off into the parking lot next to Crossing Circle.

Legends Morgan Farms Apartments

Just looking around for a place to rent and when we were touring morgan farms they said the EV chargers were free but looking on ChargePoint it says they are $3/kWh. Which is actually ridiculous. Is this just for non residents to deter people away from using them?

Also, if you live there how do you feel about it overall?
