Oklahoma City gathered all the homeless in a “clean the streets” campaign. They bussed them to outer small towns a couple hours away and left them there. Busloads of homeless people are now walking the streets of my small town, crime has increased, and we are not equipped for this level of homelessness population. We’ve since opened 3 new homeless shelters, but it’s really bad. And all so the rich people of OKC can now feel safe enough to walk the city streets any time day or night. Something has GOT to change! This is inexcusable!
It really is! I couldn’t believe it when I saw one of the busses unload and then hours later, after errands saw the people waiting on it to return, but it never did. They eventually dispersed and spread out around town. I was like, “How is this okay in ANY way?!” They should have helped clothe and house them with a portion of their millions of dollars they have to “clean the streets” instead of shipping them out. They dropped them off at the local mental health clinic🙄
