I happen to agree with the Ft Monmouth Policy. However they also limited the time you stay within a year. They wouldn't let "Stash" back until January 2008. I also know thatthey keep you so many days, because county tax payers dollars pay per diem, for some amount of days. After the county money stops they get booted out, there in is the bigger problem. So, what do we do with the homeless Dan. I know you long enough to know you are reasonable. I agree that dumbing and relocating are wrong. This isn't to say I agree with the three horseman of Asbury's position - I do know quite abit about what is goin gon in this State on this issue. The State has no constitutional requirement for shelter of anyone. Homeless people are not a protected group. Many cities in NJ are sanctuary citys for illegals but not homeless. I learned today he is well known "Stash" is the name the LBPD have given him. Apparently he is mentally disabled and there is no place for him, so they let him stay on the street and they sought of move him along from place to place when someone complains. It's a major problem. KB Yahoo!
