I have relatives like this and one thing I've learned is that there's some people who are content on staying miserable/unhealthy/hopeless..

@QueenandCrown There is a large group of them refusing help and literally crapping up and trashing our city. It has become a health hazard for them to be here when they refuse to make changes. Hepatitis germs can live for 7 years. And that’s just one of the diseases they can carry. I don’t know if they found used needles but that wouldn’t surprise me a bit.

@cherokeepatti I understand well. They had to open tent cities here to try to keep homeless contain to certain areas.

@QueenandCrown they won’t stay in certain areas. The druggies like to live in wooded areas. I think the wooded areas need to be cleared, brush-hogged, wild cedar trees & weeds removed, lower branches trimmed so that nobody can hide in them and they can be monitored.

@QueenandCrown and this is the best thing about new homes and businesses being built on those green areas, it means less space for them to hide out in near other residential areas. I just thought of that this morning when I drove down one street that is being filled with new home construction about 6 blocks south of my addition.
