Take the homeless to the zoo!

Rum, beer, movies, nice websites, gaming, etc., without interrupting the flow of martial threads.

Take the homeless to the zoo!

I heard that the homeless are being given passes to the zoo and to museums for the Democratic National Convention--that way they won't be on the streets. Why not give them passes to medical clinics so they can get a check-up? Isn't healthcare for everyone a staple of the Democratic platform?

The usual mode of operation for large American cities having a highly televised event is to give them bus tickets to a distant city. Atlanta sent Albuquerque hundreds of homeless before the Olympics. Salt Lake also bussed them away.

This is actually an improvement over the norm.

Why hide 'em? If they're there, that's life.

At least at the zoo you can display them in cages. -sarcasm-
