I drove past this between Salida and Cotopaxi on State Highway 50 in Colorado. I had to turn around and tell whoever that I stood with them totally assuming I was correct. I was and got the biggest hug of appreciation for doing so.

From my understanding, there are close to 3000 children being held around this country after being seized from their parents at the border.

Many will never see their Mom and Dad again because Republicans are totally evil.

You bastards!

No Place To Go But Throw Their Ass Out Anyway

Police rousted a half-dozen people camping Monday morning along the South Platte River near Denver's Cuernavaca Park.

I remember the first time in West Africa when I heard someone say "I'm a human being". Having arrived straight from a cornfield at the time thought it was one of the strangest things I ever heard.

It did not take long to understand the meaning.

I don't have the answers to homeless people but if I was in charge they wouldn't get thrown out unless there was another place for them to go.

As like the millions with health issues and bad stories about it they are also human beings as well and deserve more.

Send the fucking lawmakers away to Third World countries for their vacation to gain input and make them live and experience what the locals do and then we might see some headway made on this important issue.

    This financial crisis isn't over yet, any recovery will be a jobless recovery, a lot more people are going find themselves in unimaginable situations. The lawmakers don't need to go that far to witness what they need to see. I was in Washington D.C. in July this year, and within sight of the Capitol Building, I saw desperate people lying all over the sidewalk, waiting for a shelter to open.

    I wonder if there are any bloggers from there covering this and if so we could spread this around.

    Portland has a very vsible homeless population because the services and shelters are downtown by the lightrail hub. This is good so people see the problems with our laizze-faire practises. During every election the pols claim they will build adequate housing for the poor but then something always seems to come up. Our state and nat'l forests are filling up with homeless and these tent camps are getting dangerous and the parks are being damaged. We have created a class of "disposable" humans in America. Among them are children and they will remember the abandonment and societal abuse and neglect. This is very bad news. We are becoming Mexico and doing it in God's name. The ugly American is in every neighborhood and he seems to be winning as todays' shelter becomes next weeks' resettlement camp. " So much trouble in the world, give a little take a little, So much trouble in the world..."
