Very interesting... Informative too. You still didn't tell who you think the Probation department lures into Asbury? A Red Herring. But a least government agencies have some transparency, accountability and professional credentials. They may screw up on occasion but eventually the checks and balances process kicks in. Does "lures" suggest what you think of such people? The biggest point here is "Market Street Mission" owns the property. They have a right to own and to use the property.... Tax exempt or not, property owners are not free to use property at will. Isn't that why we have a zoning board and code enforcement? I am still waiting for you to list one shelter in Asbury park. Just one. I, personally, would welcome a first class organization like Homeless Solutions to Asbury Park. _http://www.homelesssolutions.org/aboutus.html_ (http://www.homelesssolutions.org/aboutus.html) Interesting history there. They started by first housing the homeless at the manse of the local Presbyterian church, then petitioning the county to move to county property where they have thrived since. How great it would be if one of our churches would be so Christian and offer the same, instead of locked doors. Homeless Solutions' records are totally transparent, including finances, and you'll find dozens of testimonials for them on the net (unlike MSM). They are faith based, but don't require any neolithic, pre-scientific, or pre-enlightenment indoctrination (like MSM/JSRM). There is no higher rated such organization that I can find. Asbury Park deserves no less.
