Not all homeless are messed up on drugs or alcohol. I'm in Southern California (Beverly Hills, of all places) and they just now (early May,2009) started a campaign to run homeless people out of the city. Police are citing people for so-called "camping"...and first-time-ever "rules and regulations" signs have sprung up. Somebody needs to mount a legal challenge...The 2 dozen or so remaining homeless basically did nothing to hurt this city! The harm was done by people who breezed through town,and are no longer here. I have no family and just had some bad luck. Could happen to anyone.
