The homeless of California have achieved a final and decisive victory in Governor Gavin Newsom's fight against homelessness.

 

Despite Newsom spending $24 billion on the seven-year war effort, the homeless have steadily conquered more territory, expanding their strongholds in every major city.

"Veni, vidi, vici. The state is ours," said homeless encampment leader Darren "Two-Tents" Willis. "Already, we have attained our most important objectives in this fight: free drugs, free needles, and unfettered sidewalk access for public defecation. We continue to strengthen our strategic position every day."

 

Admitting defeat, Newsom reportedly met with homeless representatives in a dilapidated tent under a bridge overpass just south of San Francisco. "We tried everything to vanquish them," sighed Newsom. "We gave them money, cocaine, and a free pass to commit whatever crimes they pleased. Somehow, it just wasn't enough."

 

According to local sources, the homeless population is celebrating the victory with shopping cart parades and, of course, crack. "We've seen unprecedented gains over the course of this fight," said Willis. "We have never had more square footage or more crack. Frankly, we couldn't have done it without the state's unwavering commitment to whatever it is they've been doing."

A low-barrier shelter for 24 vulnerable people in Nanaimo has closed. The Risebridge shelter was funded until Friday, May 1.

Friday morning was extremely difficult for both those who had been using the shelter as well as those helping run it.

One by one, the 24 people who had been staying at the Risebridge shelter, some for weeks, or even months, have left with all their possessions.

We've normalized people living 24/7/365 in shelters or supportive housing that simply have no incentive to work.

 

 

The young woman in this video has white knight syndrome.  She's not qualified to be a shelter worker or leader.
