er, sorry — "obligating" the homeless "to accept" being placed involuntarily under a roof of the state's choosing. Simpler libertarian-leaning minds like my own are prone to thinking that this sounds a lot like jail

100% but seeing my neighborhood become unsafe to walk around in during the day has really fucked with my anarchism. If all property were private, it wouldn’t be an issue, but given that public places exist, the options seem to be...

- cushy sleeping prisons (above) - actually enforcing our laws (resulting in less cushy 24-hour prison time, living back on the street, rinse and repeat) - being overrun by methheads, etc - ??? Does anyone know of solutions that are pro-freedom both in the short and long-term?

I can only assume that if you don't feel safe on the street during the day, you would feel something like abject terror at the prospect of sharing a "cushy sleeping prison" with the same folks overnight, which is presumably why there are empty shelter beds

Oh man, I assumed they had their own quarters at least, but having to be a bldg full of them even with your own place—idk how I forgot about that bit. I had a homeless friend who refused to go to shelters for that reason.
