If anyone wanted to sell or buy drugs, that would be the place to go.
Just make sure you are armed, and never carry the money with you.
The Liberal view of homeless is that they are nice, kind, victims of circumstance.
My view of homeless is that they are dangerous, frequently mentally disturbed people.
They are usually illegals or felons or both, living off-the-grid because they are 'wanted' for something somewhere.
Rape, Murder, Armed Robbery, Drug Charges, these are not nice unfortunate victims. These guys make victims.
If you wanted to disappear for some reason and are bad-ass enough to survive, a homeless camp is where you go.
If the Cops went through the camp and simply fingerprinted everyone there, they would wipe out half the camp overnight, and solve a lot of open warrants doing it.
