‘Evidence of problem’

Dear Editor:

On the issue of homelessness, to me and others the answer to the lack of shelter is not to run them out of where they may have pitched their bed. The answer is not, “Oh, they are just druggies, lazy, dirty and (whatever adjective that you use).”  

Stop bringing in bulldozers and dropping planters to chase them out.  Look at solutions to this lack, listen to the answers that people are presenting and help those without a roof. 

The following quote is part of the answer. Let’s be a part of it. 

“People experiencing homelessness are not the problem. They’re the evidence of the problem.”
