Murder in ‘The Jungle': Deadly mass shooting at Seattle homeless camp deepens crisis

18. A lot in my area don't.

There's no way they could work.

They have no life skills.

They don't know how to take instructions. They take any suggestions personally to the point of anger.

They don't know how to manage money.

I told my wife it would be nice for those folks if cities could somehow make these plastic or impervious little heated shelters. Just big enough say for a backpack or shopping cart and a bed.

They could be moved around like porta potties and they wouldn't be all together because then they get together, fight and get drunk together.

You could lock them from the inside, but there would be an override, nobody would "own" them. The people could eat at soup kitchens.

The gov't would come by on a a schedule and disinfect them in case somebody crapped or puked or shot up and died in them.

Social services could periodically check on them in case they needed anything.
