Police announce plans to sweep homeless from the city-county building. Will it be necessary, probably not. People will just find a new place to go and create annoyances elsewhere – until they are swept out of their new locations. Our city is absurd. Can we just work to solve the problems instead of moving them?
Talk about wasted resources . . . is this what you expect your police to be doing? And, ahem, is this social work with a badge? Is that what that looks like?
