I hate this news story. If I wasn’t living in this community (Douglas county) I would think it’s a good story. However, Douglas county has massive NIMBY policies, including outlawing everything that would allow someone experiencing homelessness anywhere near here. No homeless shelters are legal, no sleeping outside is legal, hell even weed stores are illegal in this massive county, despite it being legal in the majority of the state. Douglas county also created its own health department in protest of mask and vaccine mandates. It’s a very affluent deeply conservative pocket in Colorado that makes me sick.
So what happens if you try to sleep outside? Do the cops pick you up and bring you to a shelter where they provide a bed, meals, and a roommate named Bubba who thinks you’re purdy?
Conservatives are so short sighted - this is just giving handouts with extra hands and limited humanity.
Wait till you read about “crime free housing”
