The solutions offered in this thread aren't good either.  How long can you keep a homeless person in a hospital psych ward?  If they are legit crazy that would have to be indefinitely.  

Who will pay for that?  Someone will.

I don't know what sort of economic impact homeslls have in the streets but it will be a significant impact if they have to go to hospitals.

There has to be other solutions?  Besides some of the edgy responses already posted like shipping to Cali or worse

The psych wards in this part of FL are always at capacity.  Of course many/most admissions are malingerers looking to escape a situation they caused.

They'll probably end up squatting in the backyards of semi-rural homes and/or camp out in the bushes....driving you can see their tents there and I think Pasco County people claimed that when they were driven out of Tampa, they ended up in backyards of homes and shit.

It's popular to just write them off as "mentally defective, drug addicts, alcoholics, etc., etc.", but from what I've seen and read, lots of the homeless are otherwise sane people who consider "camping out" to be an adventure, or a return to basic living like in times past.  And many of them have just given up on the responsibilities of modern life ... like having to pay taxes, utilities, fuel bills, etc., and they've shucked all that off to "live free".

Problem is, they live free at our (taxpayer and property owner) expense. Personally, I hate people who are lazyasses and expect others to support them. And I hate thieves and fake beggars more than anything, and that's how many of them live.

Fuck the homeless.

Where should they sleep then? Homeless people are by definition homeless. Should they sleep on the private property they don't have?

I know there are shelters, but do they have capacity? I know for a fact some shelters won't take in anybody convicted of a violent offense or who can't pass a drug test.. where do they sleep? They have a physical body that cannot simply pop out of existence.

What's the alternative?

In practice this gives cops a chance to “move them along”

They’ll find that they get hassled for sleeping in front of decent businesses where before people were too afraid to do shit about it.

Cops aren’t going to go search the industrial areas and backwoods for bums unless they’re exceptionally bored or said bums are causing enough problems to draw attention.

This law isn’t appearing out of thin air.

Amazing how just a few years ago, such a law would have been decried as tyranny by most members here. Apparently people being free to live and sleep anywhere open to the public is just a little too scary, even for arfcom.

We need more laws like this, but we have a little further to fall before we'll have the will to see them through.

The real reason is, in a shelter they're not allowed to shoot up, or to panhandle (so they can pay for more drugs to shoot up with).

This is good because now cops can arrest them and take to a designated shelter or a place that deals with homeless and get them the help they need. It takes them off the streets in public places. Now the cops have the power to do their jobs. Also homeless people can be outright dangerous to be around, I've seen videos where they run up to people and stab or attack them for no reason.

Sorry if that's too close to home but the population of illegals in Florida is higher than in Texas during the 90's.  I'll never forget staying next to a MAGA trailerpark kingpin with his Filipina wife that had a crew of illegals slapping together his dream home from questionably sourced materials.

Have you used one much? 35 years as a new construction plumber I’ve racked up some time, and yes, it does take “work to it”, and skill. We hand dig the majority of our undergrounds. As far as giving the homeless a shovel, who’s hiring them? I’m not. Maybe concrete guys, they’re basically homeless anyways. Also “do”.

Meaning it’s a low-skilled job that requires little training. Back breaking sure, hard work absolutely but something people of limited abilities can do. Sounds like you can direct their efforts, not saying they’re ideal employees but pretend they’re not useful to some degree is dishonest.

There are more reasons than I will mention here, but the this has been a long time coming. His old stomping grounds, St John's County (St. Augustine) has had a lot of issues with homeless/vagrants/etc. the city council has largely pandered to the liberal vote despite being a largely conservative strong hold in years past. Enough shit on the sidewalks there has prompted near constant confrontation between residence and the council. Enough is enough. When he was my congressman there I had an issue that his office bent over backwards to assist with and had it cleared up incredibly fast.

Combine those complaints and I'm sure many others within Florida just like it and the obvious issue other states are having and Desantis drew a line.

So you want the state to take care of them?  Even if it's putting them in work camps or gulags? Forcibly incarcerate them and spend money/resources making them do minimum wage work?

It's shitty situation, made even worse by closing down mental hospitals and liberal policies of coddling the homeless and even encouraging it, but simply banning them from sleeping in public doesn't seem like a very viable solution.
