Reply to comment by hcwhitewolf in Homeless express concerns over sanitary issues inside Cranston Street Armory by the_falconator

Do you believe it's the same occupants causeing the issues that are the ones complaining? I don't understand what point you are trying to make.

It’s possible some of the people complaining also contributed to the problem. There are a lot of people in general who lack self-awareness.

It comes down to what do you do with the people causing problems? If we are genuinely trying to give everyone shelter, you can’t just reasonably kick them out back onto the streets.

That is almost certainly the case. I worked in a Juvenile detention center in the early 90's and frequently the messiest people were the biggest complainers about mess.

Okay well we are certainly on the same page there. I just don't know how to solve the problem outside of Amos doing something about it. Maybe it's not fair to lobby complaints against them as I'm sure it's a challenging task, but I do believe they are responsible for maintaining the facility so I think it's reasonable to voice concerns to them regardless of who's fault it is.
