Keeping
Homeless on the Streets
February 10, 2004
Dear Editor,
In her letter, Bruria Finkel asks for positive suggestions to
eradicate homelessness. (“Santa
Monica's Disneyland and Eradicating Homelessness,” Feb. 9, 2004)
How about we start with eradicating her SWASHLOCK program! It's
this very program that keeps the homeless on Santa Monica's streets,
and worse, at our beaches and parks. Giving the homeless a safe
and convenient place to wash up and store their belongings merely
enables them to continue to be homeless.
I can't take my two children to the beach or parks in Santa Monica
without being hassled by the homeless, many of whom, according to
our chief of police, are criminals. When are these foolish liberals
like Finkel, who enable the homeless to remain homeless in Santa
Monica, going to get a clue and let the children of our community
reclaim our beaches and parks?
Sincerely,
Karen Solomon-Perkins
