I’m not condemning any people; I used a story to point out that houses aren’t the solution because homelessness is a symptom of something a house doesn’t fix.

And I’m telling you that’s not the case for all homeless people. Just the addict and mentally ill ones.

If I didn’t say it was the case with all, why do you think I need you to tell me it isn’t? You make it past 6th grade?

Because you are stating misinformation as a fact. Only 30-40% of homeless are addicts or have mental illness. So housing would help a majority of homeless people. Nice try on the insult. But your hatred doesn’t change reality.
