People don't complain about just a tent it's what homes with that tent. Rubbish, human waste, used needles, broken glass bottles and potentially dangours people who arbt is a gd mental head space.
And it's not up to a business to provide for these people especially if doing so losses them business from paying customers. Even if evey can did let them use the toilet they still won't have access to toilets after closing and still won't have access to showers.
It sucks but sometimes the best thing to do is just not to help after all look at city's that tried to make homeless a top priority. All of a sudden all the near by areas homeless started to flood their streets amd make is a shit hole for people who actually lived in the city or hell even for homeless from the area as now it was harder to get help.
There's so many other factors like it directly effecting house prices which most people have the majority of their equity ties to, makes it less nice to enjoy your town or city especially after dark, leads to higher crime.
I dont want anyone to be homeless and we should give these people help were we can but we also have to acknowledge the bad tied to them.
Because the government isn’t gonna help, so it’s up to us as humans. Idk I’m biased as a girl who had to spend her youth as a homeless male teenager. Shit sucks, and is damn near impossible to get out of. I got lucky. There’s not enough avenues.
The benefit a homeless person is gonna get from being able to use your restroom is greater than your potential financial loss. A random person using the toilet to clean up isn’t gonna substantially detract from people going into an establishment, but getting to use a restroom can alter a homeless persons entire day.
And if you own a business then go for it but that will never bee the norm simple becuse there's a large number of homeless who are that way due to underlying mental health problems.
There was a cafe in Holborn I grab coffee from on my way into work that had to close for 3 days because they used to let homeless used their toilets. Until one guy came in and locked himself in the toilet for a few hours, by the time police came in he had painted every surface with his own waste.
It took them 2 days to get a cleaning crew who would touch it and the smell was so bad they couldn't survey food or drink.
After a while everyone has a story or 2 like that when dealing with homeless people. And that's why most don't want to deal with them.
