I would like to thank the City of Portland for relaxing the enforcement of decent, hardworking, sober and law-abiding citizens who were unfortunate enough to lose their home: The homeless.
These people are decent folk simply down on their luck and just need a stable place to set up camp so that they can get back on their feet. I welcome new camps to be set-up throughout our fair cityโฆ my block, your block, OUR blocks. Their presence will only increase property values, make our children safer, reduce litter, crime, assault, drug-use and bring an overall feeling of rainbow-colored lollipop goodness.
This website is also cool: http://northparkblocks.org
There’s LOTS of interesting photos on there.
Bring on the loveโฆ

Omigod, thank you SOOO much! I had no idea how gross and undesirable these people were. I was feeling all, like, sorry for them. You totally did us all a big favor.
Read an article about one guy living in a homeless camp (PDX) waiting for the Spring Semester to start. Getting his Masters in Library Science….
In light of the recent photo evidence that O-Live linked to, your headline should have been “Cumming In a Neighborhood Near You”.
Yeah, all those poor unfortunate homeless are all the fucking same.
I sleep outside. I don’t leave a tent up all day long. I don’t even use a tent at all. I travel light; one small bag; There’s a tarp, a hoodie, some toiletries, and one change of cloths. I take it out at night and toss it in the bushes for storage during the day. If anybody finds it, and keeps it or throws it in the trash, that’s a major inconvenience, but no big financial loss; cheaper to replace than the cost of storage, overall. I wash up in a lockable restroom at a hospital, or sometimes crash a college locker room to take a shower. I eat at the missions.
It would be nice to have a parking garage for shelter on a rainy night, however. I don’t like having other homeless’ tents and backpacks blocking the sidewalk in my way, either.
It would be nice if you at least contributed to the Tax System too.
‘Hardworking’? Good one, heh heh.
